1. Intro - Megaton
2. Vestige Of Earthly Remains
DECLINE OF THE HUMAN EMPIRE
MANS EXISTENCE HAS EXPIRED
DISINTEGRATION IN A FLASH OF LIGHT
WRECKAGE IS WAHT IS LEFT IN SIGHT
THE SCARS OF LIFE ARE LEFT BEHIND
WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO MANKIND?
NOW OUR WORLD IS LEFT IN RUBBLE
WE SHOULD HAVE KNOWN WE WERE IN TROUBLE
VESTIGES AND DECAY
THE EARTH IS LEFT THIS WAY
ASHES THE ONLY TRACE
NOW A LONELY PLACE
SHIFTING THROUGH REMAINS
NOTHING HERE TO GAIN
LIFELESS BARREN ZONE
AND I'M LEFT HERE ALONE
HUMAN LIFE IS OVERTHROWN
LOOK AT WHAT I ONCE CALLED HOME
THIS PLANET SEEN IS LEFT DEMOLISHED
ENTITY IS NOW ABOLISHED
ELIMINATION WE HAVE ACHIEVED
FROM FROM THE POWER OF MANS GREED
RUINS HERE AND THAT IS IT
EARTH IS LEFT A PILE OF SHIT
3. Life On Planet Earth Is Fucken Cancerous
SO MUCH SHIT IS CANCER CAUSING
DO WHAT YOU WANT WITHOUT PAUSING
ANOTHER FUCKEN TOXIC SPILL
HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL IT KILL?
THEY KEEP IT HIDDEN FROM THE PRESS
WE DON'T KNOW IT BUT WE'RE IN DISTRESS
ANOTHER FUCKEN NUCLEAR TEST
THEN WE BREATHE IT THROUGH OUR CHESTS
TO THIS WE'VE BEEN EXPOSED FOR YEARS
IT'S NO SURPRISE TO ME
IT'S AFFECTING EVERYONE
BUT PEOPLE ARE TOO DUMB TO SEE
SO MANY THINGS CAN FUCK ME UP
THAT I DON'T GIVE A SHIT
I'LL LIVE MY LIFE THE WAY I WANT
AND NOTHING'S GONNA MAKE ME QUIT
RADON COMES FROM UNDERGROUND
FOR YEARS WE NEVER HEARD A SOUND
WHAT'S THE NEXT THING TO BE FOUND?
HOW LONG WILL I BE AROUND?
4. Contagion
YOUR THOUGHTS ARE ABDUCTED
BY THE SHIT THAT OTHERS TALK
FAILING TO EXPRESS YOUR OWN IDEAS
TAKE A FUCKEN WALK
LIVING BY WHAT OTHERS SAY
THEY BECOME AN INFLUENCE
CAN'T THINK STRAIGHT CUZ YOU'RE AFRAID
STUPID PEOPLE EASY TO CONVINCE
DOING THINGS YOU WOULDN'T DO
YOU'RE A FOLLOWER YOU DON'T CARE
TRY TO THINK AND BE YOURSELF
YOU'RE A CLONE YOU WOULDN'T DARE
YOU WANT SOMEONE TO LOOK UP TO
YOU WANT ALL YOUR PROBLEMS SOLVED
OTHERS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU
SERVES YOU RIGHT FOR GETTING INVOLVED
LIVING BY WHAT OTHERS SAY
THEY BECOME AN INFLUENCE
CAN'T THINK STRAIGHT CUZ YOU'RE AFRAID
STUPID PEOPLE EASY TO CONVINCE
DOING THINGS YOU WOULDN'T DO
YOU'RE A FOLLOWER YOU DON'T CARE
TRY TO THINK AND BE YOURSELF
YOU'RE A CLONE YOU WOULDN'T DARE
YOU WANT SOMEONE TO LOOK UP TO
YOU WANT ALL YOUR PROBLEMS SOLVED
OTHERS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU
SERVES YOU RIGHT FOR GETTING INVOLVED
5. Predominance
POWER IN NUMBERS SOME PEOPLE SAY
HAVE PEOPLE BEHIND YOU AND DO IT YOUR WAY
GIVE PEOPLE SOMETHING THEY WANT TO BELIEVE
BUT IS THIS RIGHT, IS IT TRUTH OR DECEIT?
MASS COMMUNICATION
WILL SPREAD YOUR WORD
GO SPEAK YOUR MIND
YOU WILL BE HEARD
SOME ARE DETERMINED TO RULE THE WORLD
SOME ARE LOOKING TO MAKE SOME BUCKS
PLAYING IT OFF AS IF THEIR SUPERIOR
AND NO ONE GIVES, GIVES A FUCK
PREACH TO THE WEAK-HEARTED
BRING OUT THEIR LOVE
TELL THEM WHAT THEY WANT TO HEAR
AS YOU STAND ABOVE
PREACH TO THE WEAK-MINDED
BRING OUT THEIR HATE
SOVEREIGNTY WILL OVER RULE
AND SOON YOU'LL MEET YOUR FATE
SO MANY PEOPLE YOU CAN DELUDE
THOSE WHO FUCKED IT UP WERE CRUDE
TOO MUCH MONEY OR TOO MUCH POWER
AS WE WATCHED THEIR SHIT GO SOUR
TOO MUCH MONEY OR TOO MUCH POWER
AS WE WATCHED THEIR SHIT GO SOUR
6. Recovery
PLANET MAIMED
DAMAGE DOME
NOTHING GAINED
NOTHING WON
EXTERNALLY
EARTH IS IMPAIRED
LOOKS AS IF
NOBODY CARED
I FIND IIN MY DISCOVERY
THE EARTH IS IN A STATE OF RECOVERY
AS WE LIVE ON WE MAKE IT WORSE
THE WOUNDS WE CAUSE MAY NOT DISPERSE
CAN EARTH EVER BE REPAIRED
OR ARE WE LEFT WITHOUT A PRAYER
WHAT WE'VE DONE WE CAN'T ERASE
NOW OUR WORLD IS LEFT DEFACED
7. Side Effects
THE POSSIBILITIES ARE UNPREDICTABLE
WITH THE CONTINUOUS USE OF IMPURITIES
HOW COULD THIS BE CONTAINED
WITH THE NEGLIGENCE OF AUTHORITIES
TAINTED WORLD LOSS OF PURITY
POLLUTION, CONTAMINATION WITH DURABILITY
FUCKED UP FOOD AND FUCKED UP WATER
CHEMICALS, BY-PRODUCTS IMPOSSIBLE TO ALTER
CONTAMINATED BY INDUSTRIAL WASTES
CONSEQUENCES MUST AWAIT
CONTAMINATION TO OUR BODIES
DEFILING HUMAN QUALITIES
NOT HARD TO CONTRADICT - THAT
BODILY HARM WE WILL AFFLICT
CONTAMINATED BY INDUSTRIAL WASTES
CONSEQUENCES MUST AWAIT
CONTAMINATION TO OUR BODIES
DEFILING HUMAN QUALITIES
NOT HARD TO CONTRADICT - THAT
BODILY HARM WE WILL AFFLICT
8. Mutual Trust
WE TRUST THE FUCKEN FOOD WE EAT IS SAFE
WE COULD HAVE JUST ATE POISON - TOO LATE NOW
MASSIVE PRODUCT BIG FATALITY RATE
WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY FEED THE PLANTS OR COWS?
EAT YOUR VEGGIES OR EAT YOUR MEAT
HUMAN LIFE THEY CAN DEFEAT
THERE IS NO WAY TO BE PROTECTED
HARMFUL SHIT SHOULD BE DETECTED
EAT YOUR EGGS OR EAT YOUR SOY
INSECTICIDES ARE NOT A TOY
POISON ME AND POISON YOU
NOTHING WE CAN FUCKEN DO
SYNTHETICS IN OUR BODIES
SYNTHETICS IN THE AIR
NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT
'CUZ NO ONE FUCKEN CARES
9. Focus
TAKE A LOOK AROUND AND WHAT DO I SEE
PEOPLE ARE GETTING THE BEST OF ME
OUT TO WORK TO PAY MY BILLS
SOONER OR LATER I'M OVER THE HILL
BUSTING MY ASS NOW I'M THE FOOL
BECAUSE I'M PLAYING BY THE RULES
EXAMINING LIFE DAY BY DAY
WASTING AWAY IS THE PRICE I PAY
I CAN'T JUST SIT HERE AND TAKE THIS SHIT
BECAUSE I'M FUCKEN TIRED OF IT
NOW TELL ME COLLEGE IS THE KEY
YOU CAN FOOL THEM BUT YOU CAN'T FOOL ME
OR WORK UNTIL YOU'RE 65
HOW MUCH LONGER WILL YOU SURVIVE
PROMISE ME A FUCKEN PENSION
YOU FUCK OFF THAT'S MY DISSENSION
NOW I FOCUS, THINGS ARE CLEAR
NOT ACCOMPLISHING ANYTHING HERE
I LOOK AT MYSELF AND SEE MY REFLECTION
I'M HEADED IN A NEW DIRECTION
GO TO COLLEGE FOR 6 YEARS
THEN YOU GRADUATE
BE LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE
BET YOU THINK ITS GREAT
CUT YOUR HAIR AND GET A JOB
SO YOU CAN RELATE
REALIZE YOUR YOUTH IS GONE
TO TURN BACK IS TOO LATE
TAKE A LOOK AROUND AND WHAT DO I SEE
PEOPLE ARE GETTING THE BEST OF ME
OUT TO WORK TO PAY MY BILLS
SOONER OR LATER I'M OVER THE HILL
BUSTING MY ASS NOW I'M THE FOOL
BECAUSE I'M PLAYING BY THE RULES
EXAMINING LIFE DAY BY DAY
WASTING AWAY IS THE PRICE I PAY
I CAN'T JUST SIT HERE AND TAKE THIS SHIT
BECAUSE I'M FUCKEN TIRED OF IT
NOW TELL ME COLLEGE IS THE KEY
YOU CAN FOOL THEM BUT YOU CAN'T FOOL ME
OR WORK UNTIL YOU'RE 65
HOW MUCH LONGER WILL YOU SURVIVE
PROMISE ME A FUCKEN PENSION
YOU CAN FUCK OFF THAT'S MY DISSENSION
10. Popular Belief
WHAT IS WRONG AND WHAT IS RIGHT?
WHAT WILL GUIDE US TO THE LIGHT?
DID ALL THE YEARS OF SUNDAY SCHOOL
PAY OFF OR WERE YOU JUST AS ASS?
WILL IT BE HEAVEN, WILL IT BE HELL,
OR IS IT THE EARTH IN WHICH YOU DWELL?
RELIGION'S JUST HERE TO KEEP YOU SANE
WHEN PEOPLE START TO WONDER HOW MAN CAME
RELIGION IS CREATED
BY MAN ITSELF
PUT THE BOOKS
BACK ON THE SHELF
RELIGION HELPS THE FAMILY AND COMMUNITY
TOO MANY PEOPLE THRIVING OFF SCRUTINY
FOLLOWING TEACHINGS, READING BOOKS
POPULAR BELIEF WAS ALL IT TOOK
FOLLOWING TEACHINGS
READING BOOKS
POPULAR BELIEF
WAS ALL IT TOOK
11. Scrutiny
NO PLACE ON THIS EARTH TO FIND ETERNAL PEACE
BUT IN THE EARTH ITSELF
ON MY QUEST, CONFLICTS WITH OTHERS ON BELIEFS
OF HOW DEATH IS TO BE
TO CALM THE MIND... AT THE TIME OF DEATH,
A BETTER PLACE WE'LL GO
ONCE A PART OF THE EARTH. SOON TO BE ANOTHER
SCRUTINY
LOOKING FOR AN ANSWER, LOOKING FOR A REASON
WHY MUST WE CONFLICT UNTIL ALL IS DESTROYED
IS IT MEANT TO BE OR EXTERMINATE THE LEGION?
I WISH WE'D WORK IT OUT, IT'S GETTING ME ANNOYED
HOW MUCH LONGER CAN WE SURVIVE AS MAN THRIVES OFF
POWER AND SUPREMACY
LOOKING FOR AN ANSWER, LOOKING FOR A REASON
WHY MUST WE CONFLICT UNTIL ALL IS DESTROYED
IS IT MEANT TO BE OR EXTERMINATE THE LEGION?
I WISH WE'D WORK IT OUT, IT'S GETTING ME ANNOYED
LOOKING FOR AN ANSWER, LOOKING FOR A REASON
WHY MUST WE CONFLICT UNTIL ALL IS DESTROYED
IS IT MEANT TO BE OR EXTERMINATE THE LEGION?
I WISH WE'D WORK IT OUT, IT'S GETTING ME ANNOYED
HOW MUCH LONGER CAN WE SURVIVE AS MAN THRIVES OFF
POWER AND SUPREMACY
CREATED BY THE EARTH NOW TRYING TO OVERCOME
MAN UNRELENTING TO YIELD AS WE VEER TOWARD
OUR OWN DESTRUCTION
AS WE DIE - AGAIN WE BECOME THE EARTH, WHERE WILL
WE GO WHEN IT'S DESTROYED ???
SCRUTINY ...
12. Underestimation
THE DANGERS WE'RE EXPOSED TO DAILY
NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE ME
WE TEND TO UNDERESTIMATE SHIT
THAT COULD REALLY FUCK US UP
WE MAY NOT KNOW IF SOMETHINGS TESTED
WE MAY FIND OUT THAT WE'RE THE TEST
THEY TELL US WHAT THEY WANT TO TELL US
THEY DON'T WANT A NATIONAL PANIC
WHAT IF WE WERE AN EXPERIMENT
A MEASLY 100 LIVES TO SAVE A MILLION
UNDERESTIMATION IS THE KEY WORD
OF THE STUPID MOTHERFUCKERS WHO THINK
THEY RULE OUR WORLD
OFFICIALS COULD WORK AGAINST US
AND COVER SHIT UP
AT TIMES WE THINK THEY'RE WORKING FOR US
BUT THE REALITY DEVELOPS
13. Granted Wish
[BONUS TRACK]
FOR PEOPLE'S INTEREST IN DEFECATION, HERE ARE A FEW NOTES EXPLAINING THE
PROJECT.
THE IDEA FOR THE PROJECT STARTED BACK IN `87 WHEN ME AND MITCH STARTED WRITING
TO EACH OTHER AND TRADING TAPES WITH EACH OTHER. I TOLD MITCH THAT IN THE
SUMMER OF `88 I WAS GOING TO TAKE A VACATION TO THE USA AND VISIT NEW YORK AND
LAS VEGAS, HE WROTE ONCE AGAIN, THIS TIME SAYING WE SHOULD FORM A PROJECT BAND
TOGETHER WHEN I COME TO VEGAS. SO I SAID IT WOULD BE A GREAT IDEA AND WHY NOT.
I ARRIVED IN VEGAS IN SEPTEMBER `88 AND THE TWO OF US WENT INTO A GARAGE THAT
A FEW LOCAL VEGAS HARRDCORE BANDS USED TO JAM OUT IN (FUCK IT WAS A HOT PLACE)
AND THE TWO OF US PASSED ON IDEAS TO EACH OTHER FOR RIFFS AND DRUM BEATS. BY
THE THIRD PRACTICE WE HAD, THINGS WERE SOUNDING COOL,, WE HAD BOTH THOUGHT IT
WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO WRITE LYRICS AND A FEW MORE SONGS AND ASK NUCLEAR
BLAST RECORDS (WHO HAVE DONE THE RIGHTEOUS PIGS LP "LIVE AND LEARN" RECENTLY)
IF HE WOULD BE INTERESTED IN RELEASING A MINI LP OR 12 INCH AND HE SAID
STRAIGHT AWAY "NO PROBLEM". SO THE TWO OF US BEGAN WRITING MORE TUNES AND
MITCH STARTED WRITING LYRICS FOR THE SONGS ETC. WE PRACTICED ALTOGETHER 8
TIMES FROM THE START TO FINISH IN GARAGES AND HOUSES FRIENDS MITCH KNEW WITH
LOTS OF HELP OFF FRIENDS TO HELP OUT WITH BORROWING EQUIPMENT ETC. (THANX) AND
AFTER THE 3 1/2 WEEKS I WAS THERE WE HAD 7 SONGS - 4 WITH LYRICS AND PHONED UP
A FEW STUDIOS THAT COULD HELP US OUT FOR THE RECORDING OF THE 12 INCH AS THE
IDEA IN THE START WAS TO RECORD ALL THE DRUMS/BASS/GUITARS/VOCALS IN VEGAS AND
I WOULD MIX IT IN ENGLAND. WELL WE FOUND A STUDIO AND BOOKED OURSELVES IN FOR
12 HOURS TO RECORD EVERYTHING AS WE WERE PUSHED FOR MONEY. WELL, ALL WENT
WELL, WE RECORDED AND PUT DOWN VOCALS TO 4 SONGS AS MITCH HAD ONLY AT THIS
TIME GOT LYRICS TO 4 AND I HAVE TO LEAVE THE DAY WE HAD FINISHED LAYING DOWN
THE 1ST 4 SONGS OF VOCALS AND MITCH WOULD GO BACK INTO THE STUDIO TO DO THE
OTHER 3 SONGS AS SOON AS HE HAD FINISHED WRITING THE REST OF THE LYRICS, ONE
WEEK LATER, THEN SEND ME THE ONE INCH TAPE. WELL MITCH PHONED ME UP 2 WEEKS
LATER, WHICH WAS NOW OCTOBER, AND SAID HE HAD JUST FINISHED LAYING DOWN THE
VOCALS TO THE LAST 3 SONGS AND POSTED THE 1 INCH TAPE TO ME. WELL I WAITED AND
WAITED TILL THE END OF OCTOBER FOR THE TAPE AND IT FINALLY ARRIVED AT MY
TOWN'S POST OFFICE, BUT I WASN'T AROUOND AT THE TIME TO COLLECT IT SO IT WAS
SENT BACK TO SENDER - BEING MITCH. WELL THE POST OFFICE, BEING BULLSHIT FUCKED
UP AS USUAL AND LOST THE TAPE. WELL MITCH WAITED AND WAITED TILL IT WAS TIME
TO EXPLAIN TO MARKUS (NUCLEAR BLAST) WHAT HAD HAPPENED, WELL BY NOW WE WERE
ALL PISSED OFF AND DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK TO DO. WEEKS AND WEEKS WENT BU
TILL JANUARY `89 MITCH PUT IN FOR HIS CLAIM 700 DOLLARS INSURANCE WHICH HE HAD
INSURED THE TAPE FOR AND THE POST OFFICE SENT A TRACER OUT TO TRY AND TRACK IT
DOWN. WLL BY THIS TIME IT WAS DECIDED BY THE TWO OF US AND MARKUS, THAT MITCH
SHOULD FLY TO ENGLAND TO RECORD IT ALL OVER AGAIN. SO HE BOOKED UP A FLIGHT
FOR FEBRUARY AND ONE DAY BEFORE HE WAS TO FLY, THE TAPE SHOWED UP. MITCH
PHONED UP AND TOLD ME THE NEWS THEN PHONED MARKUS US AND MARKUS SAID GO AHEAD,
GO TO ENGLAND AND MIX IT ETC. SO MITCH FLEW OVER AND WHEN HE ARRIVED HE TOLD
ME HE WANTED TO RE-RECORD THE BASS & GUITARS AGAIN FOR A BETTER SOUND ETC.
MARKUS SAID "NO PROBLEM" BUT AS IT HAD NOW COST US A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN IT
SHOULD HAVE, MARKUS ASKED US TO RECORD A FEW MORE SONGS TO MAKE IT INTO A MINI
LP. SO WE SET ABOUT WRITING 5 MORE SONGS AND MITCH STARTED WRITING LYRICS
AGAIN AND WE JAMMED OUT IN MY BEDROOM FOR 4 MORE PRACTICES AND CAME UP WITH 4
MORE SONGS AND AN INTRO. THEN BOOKED OURSELVES IN BIRDSONG STUDIOS FOR 29
HOURS AT 325 POUNDS AS WE WERE TOTALLY PUSHED FOR MONEY. WELL WHEN WE ARRIVED
AT THE STUDIO THE TAPE WE HAD USED TO RECORD ON IN VEGAS WAS 1 INCH AND THE
SYSTEM AT BIRDSONG WAS HALP-INCH, SO WITH ONLY 29 HOURS AND 325 POUNDS, WE HAD
TO RECORD THE WHOLE LOT ALL OVER AGAIN PLUS THE NEW SONGS. WE KNEW IT WOULD BE
A RUSH ETC. (WHICH DIDN'T HELP MISTAKES) BUT THIS IS HOW IT ALL WENT. THANX TO
GREAT STEVE BIRD AND HIS TIME, PATIENCE AND FUCKEN HARD WORK IN SUCH SHORT
TIME TO DO AN LP (THANX PAL, YOU DID WONDERS FOR US) SO THANX TO ALL THE
PEOPLE WHO HELPED US OUT IN VEGAS (IT WASN'T A WASTE OF TIME) AND IN ENGLAND,
IT'S BEEN A GREAT EXPERIENCE AND TOTAL BLOODY AUTOPSY DOSS.
THANX MICK
