Vault 101, Vault 101
I've seen the lights, I've seen the lights of Megaton
I shut it off, I turned it off
An atom bomb they worshipped on but not enough
I've got the skills to keep me out of danger
Would you believe it that I almost drowned?
While crossing a bridge and shot at by some Raiders
You know they're making it hard for me
And in a world gone mad, I've got to believe
I've got to believe there's something better
Like a tidal wave, that grows underneath
That no one can see until it rises above
Vault 101, Vault 101
I walk the roads while burning 'neath the Wasteland sun
I trade the past for bottle caps
Way of the gun, a PipBoy's work is never done
I've got the skills to keep me out of danger
Would you believe it that I almost drowned?
While crossing a bridge and shot at by some Raiders
You know they're making it hard for me
And in a world gone mad, I've got to believe
I've got to believe there's something better
Like a tidal wave, that grows underneath
That no one can see until it rises above
You'll find what you're made of
Don't you, when it's only you?
And in a world gone mad, I've got to believe
And in a world gone mad, I've got to believe
I've got to believe it's getting better
Like a tidal wave, that grows underneath
That no one can see until it rises
And you'll find what you're made of
Don't you, when it's only you?
And in a world gone mad, I've got to believe

On And On

A stack of lives I hardly know
Look in my mind a window pane blurry
These claws I have unmistakable
I always heal but I never stop hurting
I have no past, no sense of time
No safe place here and no finish line
I've put more loves in to the ground
Than any man can say he's found, here
And questioning everything inside
Has brought me now, to here, this is my life
Monday comes, fly to the Savage Land
Tuesday rooftop battles with a gang of Hand
On and on and on it goes
And on and on and on it goes until
Wednesday morn filled up with bullet wounds
Thursday night tearing up the Wrecking Crew
On and on and on it goes
And on and on and on it goes
Battles fought they never stop
When Creed appears it never goes sweetly
Sinister glares through his test vials
When Wilson speaks I always go crazy
There's no repast, no destiny
No time to waste with this weight on me
From Madripor to New York State
I'll never catch these ghosts I chase, fear
And questioning everything inside
Has brought me now, to here, this is my life
Monday comes, fly to the Savage Land
Tuesday rooftop battles with a gang of Hand
On and on and on it goes
And on and on and on it goes until
Wednesday morn filled up with bullet wounds
Thursday night tearing up the Wrecking Crew
On and on and on it goes
And on and on and on it goes
Until Friday night the Elf and I get drinking
Talk and share stories from long ago
People forgotten and things we can't let go
The weekend passes like a blur
Xavier's checking in to see if I'm doing fine
And Sunday's winding down, until
Monday comes, fly to the Savage Land
Tuesday rooftop battles with a gang of Hand
On and on and on it goes
And on and on and on it goes until
Wednesday morn filled up with bullet wounds
Thursday night tearing up the Wrecking Crew
On and on and on it goes
And on and on and on it goes
And on and on and on it goes

I tuck my kids in to bed and kiss my wife on the head
I got a serious smile cuz tonight I clean the streets
I'm not talking about Dial
Spend the week wearing ties, walk the dog late at night
I take my daily run and when the weekend arrives
I'm kicking asses for fun
I put food on the table
Some would say that I'm unstable, now
Secret identity, nobody knows but me
Patrolling the city streets, my ear to the ground
Secret identity, no HR harassing me
I be what I want to be when the weekend comes 'round
When the sun hits the sky it seems I've just closed my eyes
And I can hear the sound, morning cartoons, Saturday's come around
Smell of coffee and eggs, lists of chores to be made
It's just my weekend style, nights for bustin' heads
Days for Target and while I'm fine with washing dishes
Yeah I still have dreams and wishes, now
Secret identity, nobody knows but me
Patrolling the city streets, my ear to the ground
Secret identity, no HR harassing me
I be what I want to be when the weekend comes 'round
Rain or shine, I'm on time
I love the glow of the city lights
Tickin' clock, and what's at stake
No pension plan or 15 minute break
I know the day will come when I
No longer can swing across the sky
But I'm hanging on until the years decide
That I should end the fight and live a simple life
But for now I've got a
Secret identity, nobody knows but me
Patrolling the city streets, my ear to the ground
Secret identity, no HR harassing me
I be what I want to be when the weekend comes 'round

Friday night 'neath the moon's full glow
I was out at the club with the music thumping
Oa, Thundera, Greymalkin Lane
As the bass bumped off the side of Snake Mountain
Jem on the stage with the Hologram Girls
Next up Allison Blair to light the
Start of a night at the bar at the end of the world
That my mind can't erase
There were ten in the bed and the Thundercat said
Roll Over, Roll Over
There were nine in the bed and the Amazon said
Roll Over, Roll Over
So we all rolled over and both fell out
Then they hopped in a jet with a growl and pout
Roll Over ((Hey)), Roll Over ((Hey))
Roll Over ((Hey)), Roll Over
Final call came there were shots all around
With the Gummiberry Juice and the Getafix potion
Feeling all right we broke in to the night
Dagger had an in on transportation
Where to go next? Some said ((Hawk Haven))
Some said ((Cybertron)), Some said ((Smurf Village))
But I knew in my head that those itty bitty beds wouldn't do
So we settled on my place
There were eight in the bed and the Tiger Shark said
Roll Over, Roll Over
There were seven in the bed and the Rescue Ranger said
Roll Over, Roll Over
So we all rolled over and both fell out
It was back to the sea and the trees for now
Roll Over ((Hey)), Roll Over ((Hey))
Roll Over ((Hey)), Roll Over
//GMK The Great//
Not one, not two, but three Powerpuff Girls
We were in the club tossin' back Johnny Bravos
I danced off my pants with the fly Pepper Ann
Who kept massaging my hand I took her to my land
I'm like the Fred Flint, she's Diana Prince
I could be the Bruce Wayne crusading these chicks
And the fourth one, she looks like Daphne
The night's a bit young and my carpet's Shaggy
Morgendorf but she's so sarcastic
Askin' me really how's it shoot if it's plastic?
We can spend a day in Lawndale or set sail
How can I be the one in this fairy tale? Go!
There was six in the bed when the Fraggle girl said
Roll Over, Roll Over
There were five in the bed when the Cuckoo Girls said
Roll Over, Roll Over
And there were two in the bed When the Skrull girl said
Roll Over, Roll Over*
So we all rolled over and one was left
And we cuddled through the night with her head on my chest
I didn't even hear her leave because I was snorin'
Cuz she had to go to work 'cause it was Saturday Morn'
(*translated from Skrull)

Henchman
03:34
|
|||
I hope you've got a health care plan and if you don't I understand
But I got a question for ya', does your hideout have a covered lot?
And here's the hours I'm looking for, a part time shift from noon to four
But not on Tuesdays cuz that's when I Dungeon Master for my friends
Do I qualify for this?, Well let me tell you what you've missed
I fired lasers from a sub, one year I blew a whole bridge up
I spent a month up on the moon, raised in rank peon to goon
I could've gone much higher, except for the fact my boss was burned alive
By a man shooting magma from his hands
I saw my job go up in a flame and it's a shame
I'm curious what you pay and I could start today
Have faith in what's inside like Cringer turning in to Battle Cat
So here I am again and with this leaky pen I summarize my skill set
Realize my path in life is set: I'll always be a henchman
You ask me what it is I'd do if I saw someone steal from you
I'd stab him in his back and take it for myself, of course, you see
I know that's what you'd want to hear, so drop a line to Señor Fear
Is Dr. Hatred in your Five? He'll eat your bill alive
So you better call now before he heads underground
To fight the troglodytes in their cave, he's got a full plate
Is there 401k? And dental would be great
Joints disconnect like Voltron, I've got bum knees not lions to stand on
So here I am again, I love the feng shui in this den
I've worked for Psycho Possum. Compared to his your place is awesome
Oh, I'll always be a henchman
Other guys have weeks vacations
I work for dudes with lacerations on their faces
These people they have aspirations
They want to rule a private nation
When the screws you have are loose, what else you gonna do?
Appreciate your time today, there's not much more to say
Hope I'm what you're looking for though
You'll find I'm handy just like Panthro
Oh, I'll always be henchman
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'll always be a henchman
Oh oh oh this is what I do, I'll always be a henchman
This is who I am, I'll always be a henchman

Ring Capacity

|

I'm flying through the cold of space
Seems I've yet to find my place
Guarding Twenty Eight Fourteen
Don't know why it's chosen me
When from the corner of my eye
I catch a glimpse of evil light
The fear it tries to swallow me
Like I'm just some guy with an emerald...
Ring Capacity, Ninety Point One
Ring Capacity, Seventy Nine
Ring Capacity, Sixty Eight Five
Now I'm fighting for my life
Ring Capacity, Ninety Point One
Ring Capacity, Seventy Nine
Ring Capacity, Sixty Eight Five
Now the trick's to stay alive
I see the man who's made me bleed
The one who taught me everything
A purple man obsessed with me
Soul lost to the dark and it's now extinct
From any good he once possessed
Pledge to the oath now laid to rest
No time for doubt, no quick eject
Don't give in to fear, like my father said
Ring Capacity, Fifty Point Nine
Ring Capacity, Forty Six One
Ring Capacity, Thirty Eight Five
Now I'm fighting for my life
Ring Capacity, Fifty Point Nine
Ring Capacity, Forty Six One
Ring Capacity, Thirty Eight Five
Now the trick's to stay alive
My hands burn, my skin stings
Running low on what I need
A blast of light, my last recourse
I find my way to the power source
In Brightest Day, In Blackest Night
No Evil Shall Escape My Sight
Let those who worship evil's might
Beware my power, Green Lantern's light
Ring Capacity, Forty Six One
Ring Capacity, Fifty Eight Nine
Ring Capacity, Sixty Four Five
Now I'm charged and burning bright
Ring Capacity, Seventy Five
Ring Capacity, Eighty Three Two
Ring Capacity, Ninety Nine Nine
Now I'm back in to the fight

I'm standing over you about two stories high
And you can see my knees, skirt barely covers my thighs
You love my baby head and my piercing white eyes
So say if you want to you can call me Uatu
Can I watch you? And you can watch me too
So say if you want to you can call me Uatu
Can I watch you? And you can watch me too
So say if you want to you can call me Uatu
Listen, I never instigate, Ikor didn't raise no fool
You say I interfere, you think it's hot, Woo!
Celestial bad boy from the blue side of the moon
You like the things I do, things I say I never do
But I still do, so call me Uatu
Can I watch you? And you can watch me too
So say if you want to you can call me Uatu
Can I watch you? And you can watch me too
So say if you want to you can call me Uatu
You feel my eyes on you wherever you go
The bedroom, the shower, the stove
I made you my famous zucchini soufflé
You sit there at home and you wait
For me to come crawling straight in to your world
We'll be joined like ice cream swirls and melt away
Melt away
Can I watch you? And you can watch me too
So say if you want to you can call me Uatu
Can I watch you? And you can watch me too
So say if you want to you can call me Uatu

Take It From Me
03:04
|
|||
Born on a table in Two Thousand Double X
Open my eyes and I disconnect
Look down to see the future glowing in my hand
An artificial man
Doc says lets charge you up and get you on your way
Battles ahead no sense to slow this race
Time's running out now I'm an agent of the Light
It's time to start this fight
No man of air will burst my cloud
No man of heat will melt me now
No man of wood will chop me down
And through these obstacles I'll blast
Take it from me, take it from me
I'll be the one to last
Through the final stage
Take it from me, take it from me
Grind my way through and I've created quite a scene
A mix of melted gears and kerosene
I only look ahead to see the final boss
And never weigh the cost
No man of speed will slow me down
No mortar blast can take me out
No water man can make me drown
And through these obstacles I'll blast
Take it from me, take it from me
I'll be the one to last
Through the final stage
Take it from me, take it from me
And when the music's through fading
It won't be too long
Fill my energy tank cuz I gotta stay strong
Through these obstacles I'll blast
Take it from me, take it from me
It's time to start this fight
No man of air will burst my cloud
No man of heat will melt me now
No man of wood will chop me down
And through these obstacles I'll blast
Take it from me, take it from me
I'll be the one to last
Through the final stage
Take it from me, take it from me
And when the music's through fading
It won't be too long
Fill my energy tank cuz I gotta stay strong
And through these obstacles I'll blast
Take it from me, take it from me

Great Lakes Avengers
02:45

I tried to join the X-Men
But I think they're maybe racist
Just because I'm human they don't want my help
It seems it doesn't really matter
If your super power's firing tuna melts
I tried to the join the Justice League
But Batman was a douche to me
And Black Canary wouldn't tell me hi
And Plastic Man changed to a middle finger
That was thirty stories high
I got a message from the Great Lakes Avengers
They offered me a membership but I did not accept
Cuz they're a walking disaster
Like a narwhal with a fireball
They just don't make sense at all
They're the worst heroes of all time
To call themselves Avengers is a crime
Marcel Marceau was Europe's favorite mime
So I guess I'll look around
I tried to join Green Lantern Corps
Those Guardians were such a bore
They said no way but I wasn't surprised
That's okay those uniforms were so tight
That I feared they'd chafe my thighs
I tried to join Fantastic Four
I didn't even reach the door
Who thought that H.E.R.B.I.E.'s such a serious guy?
The reason I was told I could not join
Was their car could not seat five
I got a message from the Great Lakes Avengers
They offered me a membership but I did not accept
Cuz they're a walking disaster
Like a narwhal with a fireball
They just don't make sense at all
They're the worst heroes of all time
To call themselves Avengers is a crime
Marcel Marceau was Europe's favorite mime
So I guess I'll look around
But yeah they just kept calling me and hounding me
They said I'd fit their line-up to a tee
And as my options they were dwindling down
I kept holding out for something better I thought
Was in store for me, in store for me, in store for me
Doom Patrol ((no way)), Cyberforce ((no way))
Alpha Flight ((no way)), also you are not Canadian
Power Pack ((too old)), JSA ((too young))
Birds of Prey ((you're a dude))
So I guess I'll join the Great Lakes Avengers
They offered me a membership and so I did accept
Though they're a walking disaster
I find their heart of gold is something that cannot be sold
Cuz they're the worst heroes of all time
It's remarkable they ever stop a crime
Sitting poolside with free beer and lime
So I guess I'll stick around
So I guess I'll stick around
So I guess I'll stick around
Yeah I guess I'll stick around

Just the other day, I saw my reflection in your frames
And it reminded me that I should clean my action figure case
I love the smell of toys like I love the smell of your hair
But sometimes I think I like the smell of toys a bit better
Dusty cartridges and long boxes
That's how we spend our nights
Reading comics and robot fights
I love to cheer you on as your level advances
And as you glance my way, you giggle and drink your IPA
I take a mental picture in my mind
When we met I wasn't cool
But you're the one that did see through
That's the moment I knew I'd make X-Babies with you
I showed you all my moves, turned out I only had two
You rated me plus five Endurance, Agility plus two
Dusty cartridges and long boxes
That's how we spend our nights
Reading comics and robot fights
I love to cheer you on as your level advances
And as you glance my way, you giggle and drink your IPA
I take a mental picture in my mind
You see, there's no better way to be
When you bag and board my comics
You're always careful with the crease
CGC says 9.3 but you're a 10 to me
Like Bo Derek
Dusty cartridges and long boxes
That's how we spend our nights
Reading comics and robot fights
I love to cheer you on as your level advances
And as you glance my way, you giggle and drink your IPA
I take a mental picture in my mind
