ANVIL LYRICS

1. Legal at Last

Legal at last

Now's the time, pick up the pace
Now we'll make an about face
Complexity is yet to be seen
Change rules of society
We take responsibility
Is it what it should have been?
It should have been

Not just like the past
Legal at last
Legal, legal, legal
Legal at last

Now you take your medicine
All a big financial win
Government is in delight
Find a cure for cancer
We're looking for the answer
Let's hope we've done it right
Done it right

Not just like the past
Legal at last
Legal, legal, legal
Legal at last

Legal at last
Legal at last

They say it's recreational
Profits are sensational
Money to be made
Give me doctors' good advice
Just another human vice
That the government's okayed (Okayed)
It's okayed (Okayed)

Not just like the past
Legal at last
Legal, legal, legal
Legal at last
Legal at last
Legal, legal, legal
Legal at last
Legal at last
Legal, legal, legal
Legal at last

2. Nabbed in Nebraska

Habitual behavior
With no foreseeable end
Pot in the pocket
Given by a friend

Prohibited substance
In different states
While crossing boundaries
Police lay in wait

Decriminalization
And just a fine to pay
Money making machine
Works all day

Nabbed in Nebraska
Misdemeanor, serves no time
Nabbed in Nebraska
Smoking weed ain't no crime

Thousands of patrons
And dollars to be made
A vicious game of cat and mouse
Authorities have played

Nabbed in Nebraska
Misdemeanor, serves no time
Nabbed in Nebraska
Smoking weed ain't no crime

Drug dogs and searches
At roadside stops
A team of professional
Drug busting cops
Less than an ounce
And more than a gram
Seized and confiscated
It's all a sham

Decriminalization
And just a fine to pay
Money making machine
Works all day

Nabbed in Nebraska
Misdemeanor, serves no time
Nabbed in Nebraska
Smoking weed ain't no crime

Nabbed in Nebraska
Nabbed in Nebraska

3. Chemtrails

Chemical concoction filling the air and sky
Political decisions don't care if you live or die

Control the atmosphere, climate and what we breathe
Like a science experiment they're trying to achieve

Chemtrails
Poisoning the air
Chemtrails
You know it's not fair
Chemtrails
Poisoning the sky
Chemtrails
Don't ask why

Vandals and hoodlums destroy and pollute the air
Pretentious and arrogant, acting like they care

Chemtrails
Poisoning the air
Chemtrails
You know it's not fair
Chemtrails
Poisoning the sky
Chemtrails
Don't ask why

Insecticides and chemicals meant to serve us well
Cancer pharmaceuticals on the road to Hell

Call it conspiracy, deny the real fact
Vanishing vapor trail, you know it's a murderous act
They say there's global warming, carbon dioxide to blame
A raping of the money, stupidity and shame

Chemtrails
Poisoning the air
Chemtrails
You know it's not fair
Chemtrails
Poisoning the sky
Chemtrails
Don't ask why

Chemtrails
Chemtrails
Chemtrails
Chemtrails

4. Gasoline

Dependent people
The innocent will pay
Increasing profits
Billions a day
Greedy selfish business
A means without an end
Government complicity
The enabling friend

Gasoline
Gasoline
Gasoline
Gasoline

Liquid gold
Real currency
Politically controlled
World economy
Environmental damage
The cost to humanity
Will there ever be justice
Or some sanity?

Gasoline
Gasoline
Gasoline
Gasoline

Alternative options
The way to forge ahead
Renewable energy
It's already been said
Environmental damage
The cost to humanity
Will there ever be justice
Or some sanity?

5. I'm Alive

Hunger for the moment
A longing to live
Endless boundless energy
Not to take but to give

Time goes by, you appreciate
Do it now or it's too late
Don't be late
Take away the anger, gives peace to your soul
Fulfills your desires
The power of rock and roll

I'm alive
Kickin' ass
Alive
I'm alive
Kickin' ass
Alive

Fun is what it's all about
Ya never get enough
All day, through the night
Ya just got to be tough (be tough)

Take away sorrow, bury hell in a hole
Fulfill your passion
The love of rock and roll

I'm alive
Kickin' ass
Alive
I'm alive
Kickin' ass
Alive

Following your heart
And doing what you love
When finding your destiny
It fits like a glove
Like a glove

Time goes by, you appreciate
Do it now or it's too late
Take away the envy, focus on your goal
Having your jollies
Playing rock and roll

I'm alive
Kickin' ass
Alive
I'm alive
Kickin' ass
Alive

I'm alive
Alive
I'm alive
Alive

6. Talking to the Wall

Thick-headed stubborn people to deal with all the time
Everything the hard way, simplicity becomes a crime
Nothing said gets understood, they never get the plot
Same excuses every day, your nerves will soon be shot

On deaf ears it falls
Talking, talking, talking to a wall
Talking, talking, talking to a wall

Broken record redundancy is so commonplace
A constant deficiency, and their lowbrow is a disgrace

Upon deaf ears it falls
Through blind eyes it calls
Talking, talking, talking to a wall
Talking, talking, talking to a wall

A lack of comprehension
Mistakes all along the way
Nimble-minded imbeciles
I'd love to throw you away

Long lists of stupid people making decisions for the wise
Corrupted criminal leadership and the financial compromise
The world is now broken and in need of some repairs
Who can you trust to fix it in a world where no one cares?

Upon deaf ears it falls
Through blind eyes it calls
Like talking to the wall
Talking (Talking)
Talking (Talking)
Talking to a wall
Talking (Talking)
Talking (Talking)
Talking to a wall
Talking (Talking)
Talking (Talking)
Talking to a wall
Talking (Talking)
Talking (Talking)
Talking to a wall

7. Glass House

From outside in you can see
Complete visibility
Reading like an open book
There for all to look
Losing all your privacy
Surveillance for security
There is no place to hide
Nowhere to go inside
Nowhere to go inside

Glass house
Through the wall you can see it all
Glass house
Losing privacy
Glass house
Me and you living in a zoo
Glass house
There for all to see

Cameras used to observe
Is this what we deserve?
Watched by the electric eye
That has no tears to cry

Glass house
Through the wall you can see it all
Glass house
Losing privacy
Glass house
Me and you living in a zoo
Glass house
There for all to see
Losing privacy

There is no lock, there is no key
When you lose your privacy
There is no door for you to close
It's all there to expose
All there to expose

Glass house
Through the wall you can see it all
Glass house
Losing privacy
Glass house
Me and you living in a zoo
Glass house
Glass house
Through the wall you can see it all
Glass house
Losing privacy
Glass house
Me and you living in a zoo
Glass house
There for all to see
For your security
Glass house

8. Plastic in Paradise

In this disposable world
Nothing's built to last
Striving for convenience
And we want it fast
Packaging our products
Everything we buy
The garbage it's creating
Is piled to the sky
To the sky
Piled to the sky

Plastic in paradise
Air, land and sea
Plastic in paradise
High toxic debris

Disposing of refuge
Landfills up to capacity
The ocean floor is littered
Beyond reality
Reality
Beyond reality
Reality
Beyond reality

Plastic in paradise
Air, land and sea
Plastic in paradise
High toxic debris

Plastic drinking bottles
For miles upon the sea
Toxic deadly poisons
That should never be
Never be
That should never be

Plastic in paradise
Air, land and sea
Plastic in paradise
High toxic debris

9. Bottom Line

Good news, bad news
Which do you want first?
All for the better
Not for the worst
Tally up the winnings
And hope you are fine
When luck is on your side
You know it's a good sign
A good sign

Bottom line
It's the bottom line
Bottom line

Random acts of kindness
Repay in spades (Spades)
An undying love
That never fades
That never fades

Bottom line
It's the bottom line
Bottom line

Take control of what you can
Stay on track, stick to the plan

Life can throw a curve ball
Which way will it go?
Striking out is not a choice
Losing, you'll never know
Looking for something
To give you a sign
What's yours is yours
What's mine is mine

Bottom line
It's the bottom line
Bottom line
It's the bottom line
Bottom line
It's the bottom line
Bottom line
It's the bottom
It's the bottom
It's the bottom line

10. Food for the Vulture

Cold-hearted business, brutal mentality
Shredding the flesh with starved intensity
Smelling blood and a carcass to eat
The endless cycle you'll never defeat

Death is the deal
Turned into a meal

Food for the vulture
Food for the vulture

Heartless souls with survival in mind
Same can be said for all of mankind
Scavenging hunger drives insanity
The wake up call for humility

Death is the deal
Turned into a meal

Food for the vulture
Food for the vulture
Food for the vulture
Food for the vulture

Picking the meat down to the bone
Take away all you have known
Falling victim and the vulnerability
Laws of nature where there's no guarantee

Death is the deal
Turned into a meal

Food for the vulture
Food for the vulture
Food for the vulture
Food for the vulture

Food for the vulture
Food for the vulture

11. Said and Done

Every contingency you've planned and conceived
Averting destruction and fighting to be believed
Taking control of the world where you exist
Striving for perfection, you know you must persist

When all's been said and done

A raging battle to stay relevant and true
In a doubtful world where people have no clue
Work ethics built with pure integrity
Just a possible hope for some sanity

When all's been said and done
When all's been said and done
Said and done
Said and done
Said and done

Communication is the tool of truth
Words of wisdom for tomorrow's youth
Death bed confessions void of any regret
Fulfillment of desires, on that you place your bet

When all's been said and done
When all's been said and done
Said and done
Said and done

12. No Time

[Bonus Track]

Hurry up and wait, arriving early or being late
Going with the flow, how you come and where you go
Destiny and fate is the time and is the date
Anxiety prevails, it's the wind in the sails

No time
No time

Limitation by design, end result down the line
Living once is all we get, die with no regret
Don't stop to think, all over in a blink
Wind the clock, never stop, rock until you drop

No time
No time
Time runs out
No time
No time

[Instrumental break]

No time
No time
Time runs out
No time
No time

Counting down time, life is sublime
Don't waste a day, come out and play
Don't stop to think, it's all over in a blink
Wind the clock, never stop, rock until you drop

No time
No time
No time
Time runs out
You'll soon find
No time
No time
Living, that's the key
No time
No time
No time
No time
No time
No time
