Safety in Speed

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I've only walked out on one single movie

It was an action adventure

It was a blood-sucking summer.

And the posters in the lobby of the theater called it "Predator."

I called it weak and unwatchable

Carl Whithers and two future governers

You know, that's really unacceptable.

We gotta stop falling for these double speakers from the double features

We gotta keep `em in the theaters.

So put your head up to the speakers

This is what it's like to stop talking and finally hear me

"It's not concern you're itchin' to burn, I know you're dying to know, homie I'm dying to listen and learn"

So put your head up to the headphones

This is what it's like to drown out the psychos

"I'm concerned you're itchin' to burn, I know you're dying to do it, but homie you gotta see how it's done."

So put your gun in the shoebox

Put the box in the back of your closet and close the door.

"Between the kegs and the "Maiden" CD, I think this party's got about as much heavy metal as it's gonna need."

So put your head up to the speakers

This is what it's like to stop talking and finally hear me

"We ain't got time to bleed, we hit the highways and skating on thin ice Mercedes in the street."

You ever feel like you're being tricked, tricked-out, dipped, dicked around with, or flat out lied to?

Welcome to Hollywood D.C, where Reagan youth grew up cowboys off Ronnie's westerns

That shoot em up, and steal the bucks

Tell em what's live and giddy-up, yeah off into the sunset

Years later we watched the Running Man and 2 of em ran and

1, too star-struck to stick with the plan, huh

I shoulda switched to Marlboro's

Them cowboy killers

Cause Cowboy's are killing Camel Lights.

Some mustached punk that evil's Jafar,

But for a middle eastern guy, I think Aladdin looked kinda white

We open wide and catch a bite of villain image

We swallow it, and feed it to the kids if the song's alright.

It's just the way it be, eyes wide shut up

And sit down, put your hands up for your turn to speak

So put your head up to the speakers

This is what it's like to stop talking and finally hear me

"It's not concern you're itchin' to burn, I know you're dying to know, homie I'm dying to listen and learn"

So put your head up to the headphones

This is what it's like to drown out the Psychoes

"I'm concerned you're itchin' to burn, I know you're dying to do it, but homie you gotta see how it's done."

So put your gun in the shoebox

Put the box in the back of your closet and close the door.

"Between the kegs and the "Maiden" CD, I think this party's got about as much heavy metal as it's gonna need."

So put your head up to the speakers

This is what it's like to stop talking and hear me

"We ain't got time to bleed, we hit the highways and skating on thin ice Mercedes in the street."

I got my Nikon

Let's get our Knife on

And get a couple snapshots of a bad move

Can you turn the light on

Cause I forgot the flash

Want these proofs to prove what not to do
