| [00:09.34] | I see faces and traces of home back in New York City! |
| [00:26.71] | So you think I’m a tough kid? is that what you heard? |
| [00:39.98] | Yeah, well I like to see some action and it gets into my blood |
| [00:54.26] | They call me the trail blazer - Rael - electric razor |
| [01:01.04] | I’m the pitcher in the chain gang, |
| [01:04.34] | We don’t believe in pain |
| [01:07.38] | ‘Cause we’re only as strong, |
| [01:10.91] | Yes, we’re only as strong |
| [01:13.93] | As the weakest link in the chain |
| [01:21.53] | Let me out of Pontiac when I was just seventeen |
| [01:27.89] | I had to get it out of me if you know what I mean, what I mean |
| [01:50.74] | Uuuuuuhhhh, you say I must be crazy ‘cause I don’t care who I hit, who I hit |
| [02:04.82] | But I know it’s me that’s hitting out and I’m, I’m not full of shit |
| [02:18.39] | I don’t care who I hurt, I don’t care who I do wrong |
| [02:24.76] | This is your mess I’m stuck in, I really don’t belong |
| [02:31.87] | When I take out my bottle, filled up high with gasoline |
| [02:38.55] | You can tell by the night fires where Rael has been, has been |
| [02:52.20] | As I cuddled the porcupine |
| [02:55.10] | You said I had none to blame but me |
| [02:59.75] | Held my heart deep in hair |
| [03:03.04] | Time to shave, shave it off, it off |
| [03:08.25] | No time for romantic escape, |
| [03:10.78] | When your fluffy heart is ready for rape |
| [03:14.86] | No! |
| [03:15.94] | No time for romantic escape, |
| [03:18.54] | When your fluffy heart is ready for rape |
| [03:22.48] | No! |
| [03:23.76] | No time for romantic escape, |
| [03:26.61] | When your fluffy heart is ready for rape |
| [03:30.39] | No! |
| [03:32.56] | Off we go |
| [03:36.55] | Off we go |
| [03:40.33] | Off we go |
| [03:43.96] | Off we go |
| [03:52.17] | You’re sitting in your comfort, you don’t believe I’m real, |
| [03:58.39] | You cannot buy protection from the way that I feel |
| [04:05.07] | Your progressive hypocrites hand out their trash |
| [04:11.40] | But it was mine in the first place so I’ll burn it to ash |
| [04:18.00] | And I’ve tasted all the strongest meats (Laid them down in coloured sheets) |
| [04:31.80] | Who needs illusion of love and affection? |
| [04:37.67] | When you’re out walking in the streets with your mainline connection? |
| [04:44.48] | Connection. |
| [04:51.19] | As I cuddled the porcupine |
| [04:54.22] | You said I had none to blame but me |
| [04:59.31] | Held my heart deep in hair |
| [05:02.31] | Time to shave, shave it off, it off |
| [05:07.45] | No time for romantic escape, |
| [05:10.03] | When your fluffy heart is ready for rape |
| [05:13.72] | No! |
| [05:15.34] | No time for romantic escape, |
| [05:17.66] | When your fluffy heart is ready for rape |
| [05:21.30] | No! |
| [05:22.82] | No time for romantic escape, |
| [05:25.49] | When your fluffy heart is ready for rape |
| [05:29.27] | No time! |
