  • Trivia / FAQs

    • The video for ‘Ants’ was played on the ABC’s Rage half a dozen times around 2005ish
    • Ants was written in it’s totality in under 45 minutes, by Will at Gaz’s parents house one day. It was meant to be a joke.
    • The band is very, very sick of playing Ants live.
    • Joe played all the instruments in Track 8.
    • The band finished recording just as Will went on a year and a half sojourn to the UK, so the CD wasn’t released until well after it was due…
    • Most of these songs were written while the band was still in High school…
    • In fact, I’m pretty sure the song Chook Redux was written by Joe when he was 14 years old.

    Lyrics

    1. Sook

    Wah!
    (x76)

    2. Ants

    The ants came marching four by four hurrah, hurrah x2
    The little one thought he could beat the law
    So the law went and splattered his brains on the floor
    And they all came marching in to get out of the rain

    The ants came marching three by three hurrah, hurrah x2
    The little one joined the local gang
    And now he hangs in the holy land
    And they all came marching in to get out of the rain

    In to get out of the rain

    The ants came marching two by two hurrah, hurrah
    Two by two away from the cops hurrah, hurrah
    The little one stopped to catch his breath
    And the poor little shit got shot in the head
    And they all came marching in to get out of the rain

    The ant came marching one by one hurrah, hurrah x2
    He bought some dodgy crack one day
    The doctors said he was DOA
    And they all came marching in to get out of the rain

    Whoap!

    (repeat last verse)

    3. Bed Bugs

    Du da dee da da du da, du da dee da duh du da
    Du da dee da duh du da, duh dah du duh da da
    Duddla da, duddla da, duddla da, duddla da

    Just before bedtime she tells to cover my eyes
    We’re going on a bearhunt, the fuckers, the fuckers will die
    The fuckers will die

    Drift away, but they see through me
    Such a long long night to be outside
    They’re coming
    They’re coming
    They’re waiting outside

    Just before bedtime she tells to cover my eyes
    We’re going on a bearhunt… I don’t, I don’t want to die
    I don’t want to die

    They’ll go away, but they see through me
    Such a long long night to be outside
    In my head they jump around
    It makes me shake
    But it’s alright
    They’re coming (x4)
    They’re waiting outside

    Don’t look to the side or they’ll see you
    They’ll catch you
    Just off to the side, to the side bedside
    And don’t you look to the side or they’ll see you
    They’ll catch you
    Just off to the side, to the side bedside

    Shh…

    I run to light
    To the light
    Forced to switch off the light
    On the side
    Oh, wishing to die, i’ll stick to the sides
    Right to the sides
    Missing the life it’s mine fine in your eyes
    Fucked in my eyes
    ….

    Drift away, but they see through me
    Such a long long night to be outside
    In my head they jump around
    It makes me shake
    But it’s alright….

    4. Utopia

    As I wait for you
    For my dreams to come
    Dreams so ever true
    And an omen

    Night will fall
    Down upon

    I miss you

    As I break this anew
    Walk this pressure up
    High a sky of blue
    And a mountain

    Night will fall
    Down upon

    I miss you

    It’s the way to run
    And the way to hide
    But I can’t find love
    In your paradise

    Well I don’t have the answers to all
    But I know that your questions are fake
    Nurture treats the mind
    To a mistake

    6. Manic

    Woooooooooooooo!
    It’s got to be the one
    ‘Cause today’s the day I flew away
    And it’s okay to be scared but
    Come and join in the party
    Climb up these walls with me
    Admission’s free
    But you can’t leave here

    I didn’t mean to make you cry
    But there’s stuff beyond
    What’s going on?
    It’s just a song so sing along
    And I’ll pretend I’m fine
    But they expect a spectacular actor and never quite factor the fact that it’s back-breakingly hard to act sane!

    phew.

    I’m gunna save the world
    All by self
    So that’s selfish?
    Well fuck you too!
    It’s gunna be so fun.
    FUN!
    Looting and pillaging
    Pills for me?
    Thanks dear but I’m fine.
    Fine… FINE!

    AARGH.

    I really don’t know why
    Well maybe I do
    But ha ha I’m not telling you (ha!)
    Today I’ll touch the sky
    Sky sky sky sky
    Slipping and sliding down
    Memory lane’s all shot to shit

    I looove you!

    Truly, and deeply
    So sleep with me already

    You’re not much of a friend anymore
    Are you?
    Fucker
    Are you?
    Fucker
    ARE YOU?
    FUCKER?!
    AARGH!

    No
    make it stop
    Please don’t go
    make it stop
    Please don’t leave me here with him
    make it stop
    All alone
    make it stop
    Please don’t go
    make it stop
    Please don’t leave me here
    make it stop
    Alone with me

    Stop.

    8. Screaming Out My Own Name By Joe, All Instruments Played By Joe (radio mix)

    Who’s the man? Joe!
    Three two one GO

    Watch me sing
    I’m letting out my feelings
    This is so great
    You care
    You love me
    I am so beautiful
    Feel my nipple

    The world’s not ready for me
    The world’s not ready

    Clap!

    Hear me scream
    It’s because I’m feeling sad
    I think she left me
    For a guy who doesn’t sing

    I am so beautiful
    Smell my feet

    The world’s not ready for me
    The world’s not ready

    DJ!

    9. Cowboy

    Down from the south
    Got a dirty mouth
    Fun loving texas baby
    My life’s a joke
    A bourbon and coke
    I love it when the ice melts slowly

    A spit bucket fight
    A showdown at night
    C’mon boys now who’s your daddy?
    I’ll teach you right with a towel fight
    Pick up the soap and scrub me

    I feel like making love to a cowboy

    Down from the south
    Man or a mouse
    Shadow in the sunset baby
    Got a loaded gun, what a funny pun
    Just add sour cream and gravy

    But in all my days
    Never a craze like riding horseback naked
    I’ll let you ride on my porcupine
    Just watch those spikes
    Oh baby

    I feel like making love to a cowboy

    10. Warganism

    Run

    Now, we’ll take on the world
    We’ll take on the world
    We’ll take on

    Here, here I come the world,
    Here I come the world
    Here I come

    And I will run away

    Welcome to the war
    Face the frontline
    Engulfed in maniac horrors
    Show your skin, but hide the colour

    Watching and waiting
    I pray they wont find me

    Here, we’ll take on the world,
    Well take on the world

    God, take me from this world
    Lift me from the world,
    Save me from

    And I will run away

    Tell it to the world
    End all the suffering
    I left myself long ago
    I’m killing my people
    With these guns
    Were killing ourselves

    I left myself ago
    Killing my people
    With these guns
    We’re killing ourselves

    10. Chook Redux

    I am the Christ to the soul of sin and blasphemy
    I am the device for the hungry, food of misery
    I’ll rape the fortune of all to derail the enemy
    I’ll show your future the doorway to heavens guillotine

    Joe raped ya
    In Madagaska
    Jamaica
    And Nebraska

    Tonight I will find you, it’s alright

    Its feeding time
    Wash your mouth out with soap
    Coz I’m feather blasting
    Ranging from the free to me

    I see the place where you come from as my enemy
    To walk a free man and watch you - a day ill never see
    But I will survive any torture that you beat into me
    Just to see your face when I come back through you O-ring

    Joe raped ya
    In Madagaska,
    Jamaica
    With viagra

    Tonight I will find you, it’s alright

    12. Flight

    Come play the waiting game
    It’s so close when time moves fast
    But so far away
    So don’t count the days
    It’s days till I’ll be sitting there on primrose hill
    These are not just fireworks
    What a display here

    Take flight into the dreamscapes of the night
    This is your whole
    (it’s just one)
    Life

    I’ll take my…

    He says that they see something we don’t see
    And I’d have to agree
    You see through me
    And if I could have it any other way
    I wouldn’t change a thing
    Be what be here.

    Take flight from the debris that clouds your mind
    We can not all
    (we shall not)
    Die

    Stay by my side

    I’ll take my time
    I love madeline
    (x2)

    The time I’m waiting
    It’s not negating
    All this time I’m still fucking waiting

    I’ll take my time
    I love madeline

    I’ll take my time
    In this solar wasteland
    Stroll the wasteland
    Find your…
    Light up my life
    In this solar wasteland
    Find you grace and
    Guide my flight.
