Jihad Swing #2

Jihad Swing #2 was written in early 2001. It's even more timely than it was then, which causes us to ask: how could you not see it coming?

This version was the first recorded in Early 2001 on a two-track stereo.

See also Jihad Swing (Hammer Version) and Jihad Swing #1. This version is longer with different lyrics.

Feeling Kinda Suicidal
I'm feeling kinda Suicidal

Don’t believe in abortion
I believe in suicide
Want to blow up a building with me inside
You know there’s two asses in assassination
Jihad
Illumination
Liberation

I’m Feeling Kind of Suicidal
Jihad Swing

I was playing with a light bulb because then I knew
Wanted to get brighter before I was through
I wanted to get to heaven by committing suicide
That's got to be the ultimate thrill ride

Jihad Swing
Feeling Kind of Suicidal
Jihad Swing
Feeling Kind of Suicidal

When you ride on this highway of life
You'd better know who your driving with
Could be ? of mercury and looking for bliss

I don’t believe in abortion
I believe in suicide
Jihad
I want to blow it up with me inside
Jihad

Got the Jihad Swing
Feeling Suicidal

This morning I heard your voice
coming through the speakers of my radio
I was paying close attention
because traffic was moving way too slow
I know you like the sound of your own voice
Coming through the speakers of your radio show

Chorus:
No, it's not just noise
It's your voice
On the radio
Nothing like the sound
of your voice on the radio show

You give out lots of free advice
to all the sinners who call into your radio show
But how can you save all those souls
when you can't save your own?
I know you like the sound of your own voice
Coming through the speakers of your radio show

Chorus

REAGAN YOUTH- Youth Anthems for the new Order 12"EP (selfproduced, USA, 1984)

REAGAN YOUTH- Youth Anthems for the new Order 12"EP (selfproduced, USA, 1984) is one of my favorite punk EPs. Degenerated is one of my favorite songs.

Howling at the Moon (Again)

Finally, after a long wait, in anticipation of the debut of a new Drunk And Armed web site (don't worry this blog isn't going anywhere), here's a new effort:

Howling at the Moon (Again).mp3 was originally recorded in 2001 on a 2 track stereo. It was feared lost to the depredations of a drunk loaded up on Oxycontin, but fortunately turned up.

An alternate version may be found Here.

Sitting on top of my water tower
In a pouring rain
Full moon out tonight
And I’m going insane

Chorus:
Howling at the moon
In the middle of night
Sure is fun
And makes the cops all uptight

Sitting on top of my water tower
With my wolf suit on
Cops are really annoyed now
Reaching for their guns

Chorus

Siting on down on the railroad track
In front of a speeding train
Headlights are getting bigger now
In the pouring rain

Chorus

Toward the speeding train
Down the middle of the tracks
Cops chasing me down
There’s no time to turn back

I’m running out of track
Towards the speeding train
Just 3 splats
In the pouring rain

Who do you wanna
take out with you?
Who ya gonna
take out with you? (x2)
