There is a place inside the zoo where they'll surely get to you
There's nowhere to run or hide from the evil inside
When the steel and fur collide, the new dawn shall rise
This is the Age of Modern Times. The Age of --

Metal mashes, crashes, thrashes and destroys the masses
Kids stop going to their classes to save their asses
Hunting humans, deep protrusions, no more safe illusions
No more lions, no more bears, there's just --

I get out my stapler and staple the paper
I put all the files into the right piles
I get my employees some nice cups of coffee
They have no idea that I'm secretly a --
Barbarian
With sword and shield

Will never yield

Ringmaster (Redone)
02:35
|

LYRICS:
Jeffrey was lonely, he did not have friends
They kicked him and poked him
Teased him to no end
He dreamed of the circus all days of the year
To jump on a trampoline
And make the crowd cheer --
Louder than the siren’s roar
Or Alvin, Simon and Theodore
He bought a trampoline and bounced into space
And the whole world saw him on that day
All of the lonely, the strange and the weird
Now found a leader to make the world hear --
Louder than the siren’s roar
Or Alvin, Simon and Theodore
Jeffrey died that same night
Falling from that great height
His landing was not safe
He looked like a pancake
Dwarves and lions and clowns
Were nowhere to be found
But then there came a great sound
They brought the circus to town
Elephants came dancing
Dwarves were shot from cannons
Clowns sprayed men with seltzer
Lions’ fur was yellow
Sometimes late in the night
If you look to the skies
You’ll see Jeffrey bouncing
His trampoline pounding
Louder than the siren’s roar
Or Alvin, Simon and Theodore

American Soul (Redone)
02:57
|

LYRICS:
Here I come - marching, singing,
Shouting screaming
Every day - the world’s decaying
I must save it
There’s my mom - calling cursing,
Bitching, moaning
She wants me to eat my supper
Get off my computer. But I say...
You’ll never take my American Soul
It just get’s louder ‘til your head explodes
America - Hear our message
Undo your damage
Your policies - I have read some
They are all dumb
Every internet forum bans me
They say I’m a pansy
But this world - I can save it all now
I just can’t explain how
You’ll never take my American Soul
It just gets louder ‘til your head explodes
I feel the rhythm losing all control
And I don’t care if my dinner’s getting cold
REBEL: I’m right!
MOTHER: No you’re not!
REBEL: Yes I am!
MOTHER: I’m your mom!
REBEL: Go away!
MOTHER: I will not!
REBEL: Get on your scooter
MOTHER: I’ll take your computer
REBEL: No you can’t!
MOTHER: Yes I can!
REBEL: It’s mine!
MOTHER: Shut up! Give it to me!
REBEL: Look mom, stop it! Stop it!
You’ll never take my American Soul
It just gets louder ‘til your head explodes
I fell the rhythm losing all control
And I don’t care if my dinner’s getting cold

LYRICS:
She likes to primp
She likes to strut
She likes to party
She always makes the cut
She can't be stopped
She got the fire
No one can quench
Her desire
She's a Good Lookin' Woman
She's one of a kind
She'll make your heart beat
Every time
She's a Good Lookin' Woman
She's one of a kind
She'll make your heart beat
She'll blow your mind
She's a tiger
She's a bear
Try and tame her
If you dare
You can't keep her
In the circus
She's so Good Lookin' that she would hurt us
She's a Good Lookin' Woman
She's one of a kind
She'll make your heart beat
Every time
She's a Good Lookin' Woman
She's one of a kind
She'll make your heart beat
She'll blow your mind

Streets of Metal
04:14
|
|||
LYRICS:
[Spoken Intro]
It is the year 1997
Man has become machine
Machine has become man
And man and machine have become machine and man
But one man sought to end this oppressive and confusing regime
His name was Prometheus
He would lead his people to the Streets of Metal
[Verse]
There’s Streets of Metal not far from here
They shine so bright that you can’t hear
The stop signs reach into the skies
At intersections, everyone dies
[Chorus]
Streets (Streets!)
Of (Of!)
Meh- (Meh!)
-Tal (Tal!)
You must live on them
Streets (Streets!)
Of (Of!)
Meh- (Meh!)
-Tal (Tal!)
You can’t drive on them
[Verse]
When we arrive, God comes down
He kneels before us, hands us His crown
But then we get a big surprise
He’s really an enemy robot in disguise
[Chorus]
Streets (Streets!)
Of (Of!)
Meh- (Meh!)
-Tal (Tal!)
You must fight for them
Streets (Streets!)
Of (Of!)
Meh- (Meh!)
-Tal (Tal!)
You can’t drive on them
[Interlude]
They found Prometheus
It seemed that they had won
Surrounded on all sides
He had nowhere to run
So he took out his guitar
And cranked the volume high
He crashed those chords so loud
His enemies went blind
And they fell to their knees
And begged for him to stop
But he gave them guitars
And ordered them to rock
And all throughout the land
The metal noise was heard
And everyone banged their heads
Except a couple nerds
[Chorus]
Streets (Streets!)
Of (Of!)
Meh- (Meh!)
-Tal (Tal!)
You must live on them
Streets (Streets!)
Of (Of!)
Meh- (Meh!)
-Tal (Tal!)
You can’t drive on them

Vengeance of the Elders
03:56
|
|||
LYRICS:
We fall downstairs
And no one cares
Our Bingo game
Starts kind of late
With spear and axe
We shall fight back
Through hills and flats
We will attack
This bagel sucks
My room costs too much
My bed is too close to the heating duct
Where's my glasses?
Where's my paper?
My crossword puzzle can't wait anymore
Why can't you be like my nephew Steve?
He always gets me my slippers and tea
These dentures feel like they're falling off
I should be getting adhesives and getting the best fits
So we march side by side
On dragons we ride
Knitting our sweaters with vengeance and fire
Don't feed the ducks
Prepare for war
They have seen nothing like us before
To Valhalla we all shall fly
Our armies triumphing over the skies
Before we go
We put on coats
We do not want to be catching a cold
Where are my pills?
Are they in my bag?
They give me all of the power and all of the fire and all of it now
So we march side by side
On dragons we ride
Knitting our sweaters with vengeance and fire
To the ocean we go
With paddles we row
Drinking prune juice in the blood of our foes
They say they're giving
"Assisted living"
We say they're lying
Let's "assist" they're dying
They'll feel our fire
As it burns through their diners
And we'll give no remorse
To that bitch at the golf course
So we march side by side
On dragons we ride
Knitting our sweaters with vengeance and fire
To the ocean we go
With paddles we row
Drinking prune juice in the blood of our foes

Steel Crusade
03:57
|
|||
LYRICS:
I'm tired of saying, "You want fries with that?"
I'm tired of wearing this apron and cap
I don't need no damn paycheck
I'd rather sit and bang my head
I want to rock
I want to roll
I want to spin out of control
I want to aid
The true brigade
'Cause they're on the Steel Crusade
On the Steel Crusade
We don't need no Band-Aids
'Cause on the Steel Crusade
We are so full of rage
Let's build a church out of leather
Let's sing hymns of True Real Metal
Electric guitars and harmonicas
We'll ring in the new year with Mosh Hashanah
I want to rock
I want to roll
I want to spin out of control
I want to aid
The true brigade
'Cause they're on the Steel Crusade
On the Steel Crusade
We don't need no Band-Aids
'Cause on the Steel Crusade
We are so full of rage
On the Steel Crusade
We don't need no Band-Aids
'Cause on the Steel Crusade
We are so full of rage
I want to rock
I want to roll
I want to spin out of control
I want to aid
The true brigade
'Cause they're on the Steel Crusade
I want to rock (He wants to rock)
I want to roll (He wants to roll)
I want to spin (Spin)
Out of control (Control)
I want to aid (He wants to aid)
The true brigade (The true brigade)
So the whole world
Can hear me sing (Can hear me sing)
On the Steel Crusade
We don't need no Band-Aids
'Cause on the Steel Crusade
We are so full of rage
On the Steel Crusade
We don't need no Band-Aids
'Cause on the Steel Crusade
We are so full of rage

[SPOKEN BY MARC FARFUL]
One and a half steps down
One and a half steps down
One and a half steps down
One and a half steps --
[SUNG BY KMX]
When you walk on the floor
You walk towards the door
You step on tiny dwarves that you ignore
Nevermore
We run from your shoes and sneaks
We run when your sandals squeak
We run but we won't retreat
We'll grab your feet, drag you down deep
I'll take you down with me
Farther than you can see
You'll fall and break your crown
One and a half steps --
Down where it's dark and wet
Down to the farthest depth
Down near the second step
That's far for us in your carpet crust
The gates will crash open now
We raid like a gold snow plow
Our rage you should notice now
Nowhere to hide, your show shall slide
I'll take you down with me
Farther than you can see
You'll fall and break your crown
One and a half steps down
There's not much more to go
Although it does not show
There's nothing to be found
One and a half steps down
[SUNG BY SEARBANH]
We got all the means to crush and beat you
No flock to flea to cross the sea to
Machu Picchu, R2 D2
[SCREAMED BY KMX]
No resorts to ski to
[SUNG BY SEARBANH]
We stomp our feet to stir your Shih Tzu
We bop big beats you cannot sleep through
We bred big beasts who are born to beat you
[SPOKEN BY MICROSCOPIC DWARVES]
Come on, let's kick his ass!
Yeah, let's kick his ass!
[SCREAMED BY KMX]
No resorts to ski to
No rest for your Shih Tzu
No beats you can sleep through
[WHISPERED DOWN THE LANE]
Down with me
Farther than you can see
You'll fall and break your crown
One and a half steps down
There's not much more to go
Although it does not show
There's nothing to be found
One and a half steps down

Black Rubber Nose
03:13
|
|||
LYRICS:
I went looking for reindeer
And boy, I found him
He's not loved by the elves
His nose is red
He plays no reindeer games
Stays home instead
Now it's on Christmas Eve
The weather sucks
Oh will he guide my slay?
I hope he shall
He meets an elf named Hermie
Who's a misfit
Instead of making toys
He wants to be a dentist
We'll have to cancel Christmas
With this blizzard
Well even Jesus told me
To get a new job
Well, he wants to go out while it's snowing and blowing
He can't go out 'cause his nose is glowing
Cover it black
Ooh, cover it black
Black, black, black, black rubber nose
He needs a black, black, black, black rubber nose
Riding you
Riding you
Ride - riding you
Was like a cowboy on an ostrich
(Was like a cowboy on an ostrich)
Riding you was like a cowboy on an ostrich
Riding you was like a cowboy on an ostrich
Riding you was like a cowboy on an ostrich
A cowboy on an ostrich
A cowboy on an ostrich
A cowboy on an ostrich
Jesus Christ fired me
Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ fired me
Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ fired me
That's all I remember
But then he said to me
"There's another holiday in December"

The KMX Band Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The KMX Band is the only Metal band in history to have a singer that almost always wears the same shirt. It is also the only
band in the Philadelphia area in which a former drummer once urinated on the couch of another former drummer.
But perhaps more importantly, The KMX Band is the only Traditional Metal band in the world that will sing about robots, tigers, demons and chocolate.
