Mayday

The lyrics for this song are as such

Kiss kiss, bang bang Got to have the hanging man Shock you clean Till the penal hits the pentane Free yourself Because I could shock you down You kill yourself please? Because you're already gone Now in time it seems like I am coming No drone that says I'm already there I'm standing on the roof of the world Mayday You won't be saved From the builder in the morning sun You won't be spared From keeping at your solitaire Keep all that soul Put the freedom in past form The jokes on you But now you're living in vain I'm putting in my 2 weeks notice As of 2 fucking weeks ago I'm not in your ranking anymore Mayday

"you kill yourself please" is "you cant dissapear" and the "jokes on you, but thyre all laughing at me"

I agree with skeeza, love that chorus

such a cool, catchy song, I wish there were official Tomahawk lyrics somewhere!

To me, the chourus always sounded like:

"Now the trumpets say that I am coming --- the ----- says I'm --------in I'm standing.."

Kiss kiss, bang bang The jive talk of the hanging man Shock you clean Till the penal hits the guillotine Free yourself Because I could chop it down You cant dissapear Because you're already gone No time --- I am coming No jury says I'm --- I'm standing on the roof of the world Mayday You won't be saved From the bullet & motar son You won't be spared From cheating at your solitaire Keep all that soul Put the freedom in fast forward The jokes on you But now you're living in ---- I'm putting in my 2 weeks notice As of 2 fucking weeks ago I'm not hanging 'round here anymore Mayday

Agreed - "The jokes on you But now they're laughing at me"

"Kiss-Kiss" Baby, Can't tug on the hangin' man. They'll shock you clean, A jalapeno in the guillotine.

listen to the studio version - read these lyrics - think about it

Kiss kiss, bang bang Feel the tug of the hanging pole Shock you clean should have been in a guillotine Free yourself Because I could chop you down You cant disappear Because you're already gone No trial because I am coming No jury cause I'm already there I'm standing on the roof of the world Mayday You won't be saved From the bullet in the morning sun You won't be spared From cheating at your solitaire Keep all that soul Put your fate in fast forward The jokes on you But your all laughing at me I'm putting in my 2 weeks notice As of 2 fucking weeks ago I'm not hanging around here anymore Mayday

kiss kiss, bang bang gotta tug on the hanging man shock you clean turn the penile into pentane free yourself because I could chop it down you can't disappear because you're already gone

no trumpet sounds when I am comin' no drum beats as I'm (something) I'm standing on the roof of the world mayday..

you won't be saved from the builder in the morning sun you won't be spared from cheating at your solitaire keep all that soul put the freedom in past form the joke's on you but now you're laughing at me

I'm putting in my two weeks notice as of two fuckin' weeks ago I'm not in the running anymore mayday..

This song is similar to God Hates A Coward in the sense that it's spoken by a similar voice. It is the voice of the illuminati... of the occult (hence the chorus, informing you that his true presence/knowledge is generally hidden.. i.e. no trumpet plays to let you know he's arrived).
When he says "gotta tug on the hanging man", he's referring to the folklore surrounding mandrake and terminal erections (also known as "angel lust"). When a man is hanged, he will typically get a post-mortem erection and ejaculate. It was/is believed that this process would stimulate the growth of mandrake on the ground beneath (hence the line "turn the penile into pentane", which is a reference to this type of alchemy and also to the album title itself: Mit Gas).

So starting with that idea in mind, the meaning of the song becomes clearer. This is a wizard/magician/illuminati member/whatever-the-fuck taunting you and explaining how you should do what he's doing, and get down with magic/spells so you can "free yourself" and become a living god (that's why he's "standing on the roof of the world"). He's also warning you that if you DON'T do as he is doing, you're going to die with the rest of the common people when the New World Order takes over and bankrupts all the nations of the world. When he says "you won't be saved from the builder in the morning sun", he's talking about Lucifer (who is sometimes referred to as the "morning angel".. the giver of light... the one who illuminates man and gives him special powers). But it can also be read as "you won't be saved from the builder in the morning, son" as if he's speaking to you like you're a child. Patton uses lots of double entendres like that, so it's difficult to really sum up songs like this. But hopefully this helps :)
