A Shark In Jet's Clothing

I always had my eyes on you but you came from across the line.
I had to make good time to see you but you had to pay the fine.
All the boys on my side knew that you were the shark.
If you were found on the borderline you'd be shot in the dark.
Don't wear those clothes again, they don't make it in thiscrowd.
Don't go out D.T.K., you'll wear your best suit in the ground.
We're meeting in a neutral zone: the last car on the train.
The love you brought shaking up my bones and crawling through ourveins.
We always met at the edge of a blade and we left at the end ofthe fight.
Of all the girls you've played and you laid why did this one haveto be white?
They're gonna getcha at 12 o'clock high, got their sights set lowon you.
You better believe me, I wouldn't lie.
We better quit before you're through!
They're gonna getcha at 12 o'clock high, got their sights set lowon you.
You better believe me, I wouldn't lie.
We better quit before you're through!

Rifle Range

I was all alone with the scent of a bone and my heart was stuckin this emptiness zone.
I had not a care, though I wanted to hear the voice of a maidenwho was playing down there...
At the rifle range, I lost my heart.
At the rifle range, I could not start.
At the rifle range, she left me so hot!
At the rifle range.
Like a victim of truce I was strung on a noose cracking at thenews of a prey let loose.
I turned around to stare at the face she would wear and I ranthrough the gallows, her heart was down there.
At the rifle range, I lost my heart.
At the rifle range, I could not start.
At the rifle range, I heard a shot!
At the rifle range.
If I lose my head, we'll be certainly dead, with visions of acid,how I wish they bled.
The drummings of fear cause they're getting so near and I thinkof a lion who was devoured down there.
Yeah yeah yeah! At the rifle range, I lost my heart.
At the rifle range, I could not start.
At the rifle range, I heard a shot.
At the rifle range, she left me so hot!
At the rifle range, Bang bang!
At the rifle range, Bang bang!
At the rifle range, Bang bang!

The Attack Of The Giant Ants

Giant ants from space
snuff the human race.
Then they eat your face,
never leave a trace.
La la, la la la, la la, la la la, la la, la la la.
They shoot fire all around.
Tokyo burns down.
Everybody drowns.
The moon falls on the ground.
La la, la la la, la la, la la la, la la, la la la.
(La la la la...)
They can't be stopped at all.
The buildings start to fall.
Soldiers shoot all day
and then they run away.
La la, la la la, la la, la la la, la la, la la la.
(Insert end of world here)
The world is holocaust.
Everything is lost.
Mankind is destroyed.
Sprinkled in the void.
La la, la la la, la la, la la la, la la, la la la.
Giant ants from space
waste the human race.
Then they eat your face,
never leave a trace.
La la, la la la, la la, la la la, la la, la la la.
