Verse #1 Lyrics:
I don't care what you think
I don't care what you say
I've got nothin' to give you
Why don't you just go away?
Chorus Lyrics:
I've got no values
Nothin' to say
I've got no values
Might as well blow you away
Verse #2 Lyrics:
You're just a hole in the corner
Always loaded to the hilt
I could try some satisfaction
I could destroy everything you build
Verse #3 Lyrics:
Don't you try classification
When you know it won't work
What if I try some annihilation
Throw your face in the dirt
Verse #4 Lyrics:
Don't you try pretendin'
Don't admit it's over
I just might start destroyin'
Everything in my sight!
