Let's skate! Seemed like such an innocent toy He was the All-American boy Got a skate at eight years old Now the story can be told Beware he's possessed to skate! Skating takes him up in height He's a pilot on a modern flight See him flying through the air If he don't land then he don't care [CHORUS] Cause he rips-he rips When he skates-he skates Cause he never hesitates He's the wizard on the wheels Like a modern gladiator ain't got no fears So skate He shoots the pool like a launching pad If it ain't insane then you can't get rad Skating is all that's on his mind He's skating radical all the time [CHORUS] Beware he's possessed to skate! Looks like a magic carpet ride Six foot airiels inverts backside Optical illusion it must be He redefines insanity [CHORUS] Doesn't understand why you'd wanna walk Ain't got time to sit and talk Used to be just like you and me Now he's an outcast of society Beware he's possessed to skate! And the skating's getting radical

Lying on my back, wheeled under blinding light Shackled restraints resist my attempted fight The scalpels hovers over me, the incision is made Once again they're watching me, no new sensation, just frustration They said it was for science But I'm the human guinea pig The guinea pig The guinea pig The guinea pig The guinea pig The guinea pig My sleep has been altered, I open my eyes The nightmare continues, I see through their lies The papers keep turning, the tests never ends Once again they're watching me, no new sensation, just frustration They said it was for science But I feel like the human guinea pig Time may have passed on, but I won't soon forget The old sensation, pure frustration of a human guinea, guinea pig

Welcome to the year of the cyco It's been a long, long wait Welcome to a modern blitzkrieg With peace, I can't relate Welcome to death now you'll love it Once in a lifetime treat Say goodbye to peace and order You and my terror will meet My best friend is misery My girlfriend is insanity My father is revenge My love for you I must confess With my knife you passed the test I'll love you till the end Evacuation of my mind In my body no heart you'll find Where there's death I lurk Empty stare incoherent Screams of pain, love to hear it Take pride in my work They say two wrongs don't make a right Well maybe that is true But I can't describe the feeling I get When I take revenge on you Forgiveness is the key to destruction But you can't open my door Repentance, you're indecision I hesitate no more Tradition is the root of all evil So now I water the tree Salvation, an all-time sentence So now I walk away free Two wrongs don't make a right But they make me feel a whole lot better
