Release The Dogs Lyrics
in a moment of weakness
they've gone for the throat
prayers answered for the ruling classes
and we've swallowed them whole
heads down and hands up
our need for safety has been hijacked again
they've got their fingers
on the pulse of our mourning with knives poised
decide right now which side you're on
invest our freedom
in failure by design
hands tied with pleasure
now we're choking on their cum
guided deception allegiance to a goal
that never mattered until they told us so
blowback has blown back
into our face and ignited a war
on home turf between control and our freewill
lines are drawn
they've picked up the scent
moving in for the kill
unchained and hungry
teeth ready to feast
release the dogs
they've gone for the throat
prayers answered for the ruling classes
and we've swallowed them whole
heads down and hands up
our need for safety has been hijacked again
they've got their fingers
on the pulse of our mourning with knives poised
decide right now which side you're on
invest our freedom
in failure by design
hands tied with pleasure
now we're choking on their cum
guided deception allegiance to a goal
that never mattered until they told us so
blowback has blown back
into our face and ignited a war
on home turf between control and our freewill
lines are drawn
they've picked up the scent
moving in for the kill
unchained and hungry
teeth ready to feast
release the dogs

It's grown on me
i like it......lots
this song and all the ones on their new EP are awesome...they seem to have been influenced a lot by the events of the past year.
XforgetmynameX...ur pretty much rite...i was at the concert they recorded the other songs at (7.19.02 :) ) and they said this is about the past year and gov't and news feeding us all this crap thats just stupid. thats pretty much it... boy sets fire kicks ass...cant wait to see them 9/21
This song is amazing. It especially makes me think about the gov't and how they manipulate everything to their will and not caring about things written in the constitution and such. And for those reasons I hope they fail. BoySetsFire is awesome.
This song rocks out, the best on the EP
this song is INCREDIBLY good live. i had the chance to see them at the live show at the trocadero that they taped for the new dvd, such an amazing show.
the lyrics are great. especially the line choking on their cum, call me vulgar but it really got the point across and I like it.
boy sets fire is always so fucking right!
the song's essentially about the bush administration pandering to the 'ruling classes', and how very little action was taken agaisnt it. something needs to be done kids, dont be idle, fight the fight!
