Clutch - Transnational Speedway League: Anthems, Anecdotes And Undeniable Truths
1. A Shogun Named Marcus
If you thought it was boring in Jordan, well come out here for a day
And, by the way, the name's Marcus, but if you like you can call me Sensei
Well the emperor's in the pigsty, and the geisha's in the shack
And you better believe that I'll hold them there 'til the feds they pay me back
Kamikaze, backbone, nine iron, spitfire, continental samurai, oh my Lord
Brown sugar, sweet potato, sourmash, baby back, redneck romance, bless my soul
Hari Kari and combines, come dancin' with me
Hari Kari and combines, won't ya come dancin' with me?
Yes I'm a New World samurai, and a redneck nonetheless
Yes I'm a New World samurai, and a redneck nonetheless
Yes I'm a New World samurai, and I can read your mind
Check it out I'm like a buzz bomb
Yes I'm a New World samurai
Check it out I'm like a buzz bomb
So beebop-a-loobop-a-wop-shamboo and domo arigato if I got to (8x)
EL
2. El Jefe Speaks
Like a fly to doo-doo, you need me like a bird needs wings
Or little bunny fufu who needs to bop the field mice, so all the kids can sing
They call me El Jefe, el primo de los matadors
the master of the metaphor, a chaw chewin' troubadour
The one you've come to love and adore
And I've come, to take you away...
Take you away, take you away, take you away
Take you away, take you away, take you away
I'll make you go goo-goo like a baby that sees candy right before its eyes
I'll kiss your little boo-boo, make it better than it's ever been before
They call me El Jefe, el primo de los matadors
the master of the metaphor, a chaw chewin' troubadour
the one you've come to love and adore
And I've come, to take you away...
Take you away, take you away, take you away
Take you away, take you away, take you away
I'll take you away now (4 times)
Can you do the two-step fleshtone slide?
Well I'll teach ya
Can you do the achy-breaky eyeball dance?
Well I'll teach ya
They call me El Jefe, the boss and the point man
And I've come to take you away
They call me El Jefe, the boss and the hit man
And I've come to take you away
3. Binge And Purge
Perhaps it's just the way the light falls
But everything looks like a target to me
And I don't know where the gun is
But I'm certain that it's pointed at me
And in the jungle wretched jungle
They say the lion eats tonight
And all around it is a coliseum
Dripping with a voracious appetite
I say hey there fella, whose soul are you tormenting now? (3 times)
In the course of all the previous events
It is evident that something's bound to happen
Come on rear your ugly head to me
I've got nothing to lose but my apathy
The root of the problem has been isolated (4 times)
Come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er let's throw down
Come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er let's throw down
Just try me, just try me, what are you waiting for?
Come on motherf***er let's throw down
Come on motherf***er let's go
Just rear your ugly f***in' head I'll put it on a platter
Just rear your ugly f***in' head I'll put it on a platter
Hey there, hey fella, hey there, hey fella
Come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er let's throw down
Come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er let's go
Come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er let's throw down
Come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er, come on motherf***er let's go
I'll make you wish that you'd never been born (3 times)
Come on motherf***er let's go
Hey there, hey fella, hey there, hey fella
4. 12 Ounce Epilogue
This was always the last place I expected to be
Once upon an apocalypse, so better make the most of it
So I said to the horseman, "Have a Coke and smile"
So I said to the horseman, "Why not stick around for a while?"
But they said "You got the wrong one, baby"
The New Generation's pushing up some daisies
And by decree of Rapture I-N-C
We're closing this here market, permanently
Coming down like a ton of lead
More bang for your buck, more praise for the dead
Coca-Cola and Armageddon
I like it, like it, yes I do
So they're gonna teach the world to sing in perfect harmony
But it was way off key, so here comes big R.C.
The melting pot boils
The bible belt breaks
And young America begins to sing
Coca-Cola and Armageddon
We like it, like it, yes we do
Coca-Cola and Armageddon
It's the Real Thing now, come and get it
So they're gonna teach the world to sing in perfect harmony
But it was way off key, so here comes big R.C.
The melting pot boils!
The bible belt breaks
And young America begins to sing
5. Bacchanal
Temptation of indulgence
Divides and conquers my mind
An elegy for fading youth
Welcome to mankind
If you provide the spleen
Then I'll provide the ideal
If I provide a puppet
Will you provide the strings?
Revel in the glory
Of a coming of age
Decades of suppression
Released in a rage
If you provide the spleen
Then I'll provide the ideal
If I provide a puppet
Will you provide the strings?
How can I seize the day when it is dusk?
You provide the pull and I'll provide the thrust
Romance is nothing but a sack of lies
But it is truth which I have come to despise
Bacchanal (x3)
If I provide the scene
Will you provide the ordeal?
If I provide the crown
Will you provide a queen?
Revel in the glory
Of a coming of age
Decades of suppression
Released in a rage
6. Milk Of Human Kindness
Fine swine, wish you were mine, bite the apple of my eye
This little piggy never made it home
Helter skelter run for shelter, can't escape the boiling swelter
Beat you like the dog that you are
Oh I could kill you if I wanted, kill you with my own two hands
Oh I'm so happy I could kill you, kill you like a sacrifical lamb
Cause you, you are nothing but an animal with a branding iron on your back
A sight so obscene, a sight so absurd, so many ways to skin a cat
All cut up
All cut up
Everything tastes better now
My hands, these tools, the fatted cow
The swine, the wine, the coming feast
Your Jesus Christ has canine teeth
Fine swine, wish you were mine, bite the apple of my eye
This little piggy never made it home
Helter skelter, run for shelter, can't escape the boiling swelter
Beat you like the dog that you are
'cause you, you are nothing but an animal
With a branding iron on your back
A sight so obscene, a sight so absurd
So many ways to skin a cat
All cut up
All cut up
Everything tastes better now
My hands, these tools, the fatted cow
The swine, the wine, the coming feast
Your Jesus Christ has canine teeth
7. Rats
Rats over the dishes
Rats over the dishes
Please tell me what the ratsies say
Please tell me what the ratsies say
Rats over the dishes
And God was certainly a genius
To expose this human weakness
Rats over the dishes
Rats over the dishes
Please tell me what the ratsies say
Please tell me what the ratsies say
Rats over the dishes
And to think that this was once my home
But now it's some sick bastard's pleasure dome
They say to build a better mantrap
The rats, they will beat a path to your door
And the doorway is a cutaway of flesh and bone
And the doorway is a cutaway of flesh and bone
Lay me down upon a bed of roses
Lay me down upon a bed of roses
Rats (3 times)
Beat a path to my door
Build a better mantrap
And the rats will beat a path to your door (4 times)
8. Earthworm
Now all will be sanctified
And now all will be purified
And now all will be rectified
And now all will be rectified
And now you will be purified
And now you will be purified
So you writhe in the deep-fry, squirm like the earthworm
In that mud called love
That you justified, that will be purified, whether you like it or not
So you writhe in the deep-fry, squirm like the earthworm, in that mud called love
That you justified, that will be purified whether you like it or not
So you leap from the dung heap, squirm like the earthworm, in that mud called love
That you justified that will be purified whether you like it or not
Writhe in the deep-fry, squirm like the earthworm, in that mud called love
That you justified, that will be purified whether you like it or not
And now all will be purified
And now all will be sanctified
And now all will be rectified
And now all will be rectified
9. Heirloom 13
Rise now my son
Rise now my son
You were suffering from a horrible dream
So mend your ways before they tear you by the seams
You're not the first and not the last
So take this relic of the beloved past
So take it now it's yours, pass it on, preserve
This undenied heritage of yours
So take this heirloom
So take this heirloom
So take the heirloom
So take the heirloom
But I don't want it
And I don't need it
So you can keep it
So you can keep it
But I don't want it, I don't need it
Take your heirloom to Hell (2 times)
I will not fulfill your prophecy
'cause this heirloom it burns like a scar
The calf denies the branding iron at last
The calf denies the branding iron at last
I don't want it (4 times)
10. Walking In The Great Shining Path Of Monster Trucks
Well I crashed a Cadillac through the gates of Hell
And returned with a fistful of dollars
And Evel Knievel, like Virgil
Was a gentleman as well as a scholar
So I fly like a Retro-glide buckshot
Even though I hang like a hex on a barn
Grind the guardrail like a nail on a file
Above and beyond the whole nine yards
Well I rolled Jesse Helms like a cigarette
And smoked him higher than the highest of the minarets
Jesse James couldn't even handle it
Started looking at me like I was Sanskrit
Cause in the Great Shining Path of the Great Monster Trucks
There's no such thing as beginner's luck
I'm the dirty dozen, for the price of one
Get it while it's hot going, going, going, gone
It's about time you started learning
To come to where the flavor is
It's about time you started learning
To come to where the flavor is
The skies are always sunny in the heart of Flavor Country
Where the washers stuffed with money are growing like grass
Junk bondage racks never cut you slack
But that's the way the racket goes when rounding up greenbacks
Don't hate me just cause I'm beautiful
You will find that is really not unusual
When you're raised with the Good, the Bad, the Ugly
A holy trinity in Flavor Country
It's about time you started learning
To come to where the flavor is
I got spurs that jingle, jangle, jingle
I got spurs that jingle, jangle, jingle
And you were my happy trail (x4)
The skies are always sunny in the heart of flavor country (x3)
11. Effigy
Behold the man, a living example
Behold the man, a living example
In his likeness sacred, profane
In his likeness sacred, profane
Behold the man
What have I done?
The path to Hell is paved with least resistance
But those less travelled by shall make a world of difference
Beating myself to a pulp
Extracting from my skull
All those things I've learned to live with
All those things I've loved
All these things are killing me
A perpetual fall from grace
But the hand that beats
Is the hand that beats me fiercely in the face
So I will
Build myself an effigy (4 times)
No longer mope in mediocre Hell(2 times)
Behold the man
A living example Behold the man
What have I done?
Behold the man
In his likeness
Sacred profane
Behold the man
A living example Behold the man
Behold the man
A living example Behold the man
In his likeness
What have I done? (3 times)
What have I done? Done? Done? Done?
EFFIGY(4 times)
BEHOLD THE MAN(2 times)
The icon, betrayal, and guilt
The icon, betrayal, and guilt
The icon, betrayal, and filth
The icon...
What have I done?
Behold the man
A living example In his likeness
Sacred profane
Behold the man (2 times)
What have I done? (2 times)
