The Vandals, A Gun for Christmas
The Vandals, A Gun for Christmas
The Vandals, I Don’t Believe in Santa Claus
I don’t believe in Santa Claus-
his corporate image forced upon
the blinded spending masses,
to enslave the lower classes
with obligatory gifts that serve to cleanse
a year of guilt and shame.
One token gesture justifies
the apathetic, hypnotized,
Leaving them to be Kris Kringle’s slaves.
Buy! Buy! I won’t do it.
The seasons obligation has not my participation.
Buy! Buy! I won’t do it.
The money hungry mating call of corporate swine.
Cuz-
It’s only for the money!
It’s only for the money!
It’s only for the money!
It’s only for the money!
Now Buy!
He monitors naughty and nice-
Big brother is St. Nick!
Methodically his judgment made
documented on his list.
I- Don’t believe in Santa Claus
or his mystical facade
to teach the children wanton greed,
they’re lust for gifts becomes a need.
Brainwashed by the marketing
and victims of the corporate scheme.
Material possessions becoming they’re obsessions
till human life has lost it’s value
and you blindly do just what they tell you
I don’t believe!!!!
His tactics of intimidation repress the minds of youth
using fear for generations, His image hides the truth
He’s just a puppet for the system, a glutton in a suit
with Yuletide propaganda and a bearded mask to boot!
The Vandals, Aging Orange
Laurie Incognito is moving in and she is bringing a whole bunch of color with her! The plan is to paint the kitchen orange and purple. I am pretty psyched actually - the innards of my house looks too much like the Bishop’s house in Fanny and Alexander.

The Vandals, Change My Pants (I Don’t Wanna)
Whew. It was pretty dicey there for a while but I finally found my shorts. That was close.

Appeals court affirms order blocking Oklahoma sharia law ban

I went to Tulsa once. I am not surprised Oklahoma tried this.

Sears to close 100 to 120 Kmart, Sears stores
Just two weeks after Gov. Pat Quinn signed tax-break legislation aimed at keeping Hoffman Estates-based Sears Holdings Corp. from leaving Illinois, the retailer announced it would shut down between 100 and 120 Sears and Kmart stores.
