Freak Power by Trial of the Golden Witch Lyrics
[There'll be thieves and auto wrecks in Aspen whoever gets elected but Hunter represents something wholly alien to the other candidates for Sheriff: ideas. And, a sympathy towards the young, generous, grass-oriented society which is making the only serious effort to face the technological nightmare we've created. The only thing against him is, he's a visionary. He wants too pure a world.]
What ya'll mothafuckas don't recognize
Is that I am terrified
Marginalized, 'til right on the line
And just waiting to get pushed
Whoo!
So I can push back
Harder than ya'll ever thought to attack
I'm ruthless, with no tact
Just a wild cat
With enough fat
For the blowback
So know that
When you come at
Me I'm on edge
With a honed edge
That is bone dense
And I'm no friend
To a punk-ass with nothin' but sass
Who scoffs at the crass
Some upper-class wannabes
Haughty bigots with no zazz
I'm classically trained in fuckin' ya brains
A lord of the strange, deranged, and the fuckin' insane
I'm changin' the game, so put some damn respek on my name
Or get flamed when I'm fed up with the train of cliches
Condescened to me if you would like to swallow your teeth
I'll keep this brief: go fuck yourself
Try to big league me, and I'll go straight to the big league
By which I mean a baseball bat to each of your knees
That's how it goes when the freaks get mean
Drop the pig's blood, and it's death by CDs
You're a disease and I got the antidote
It's a goat-headed man with a knife at your throat
That's freak power
Freak Power!
Freak Power
Freak Power!
That's freak power
That's freak power
Freak Power
Every single person who has told you
That you couldn't lives in fear
That you'll achieve the things in life
They think you shouldn't
Hearing that was like a bullet to the temporal lobe
Tellin' me I'm not alone
Speedin' down that lonely road
Out to where I thought I belonged
Now I proved that I did
And I'm shittin' on the people that I knew as a kid
Anyone who said I couldn't, bitch I already did
And I'll do it all again just so I can rub it in
Your narrow scope on reality gettin' spread so thin
The banality of your frivolity been sinkin' in
Where I been? Oh just over here, countin' my tens
Watching you over there wonderin' where the time went
I bided mine till I blew up
The only way you screwed up
Was tryin' not to screw up
I took the risk and knew what
Would come if I stayed true ta
Myself and what I wanted
The life I held so vaunted
It's healthy to be haunted
Freak Power
Freak Power!
Freak Power
Freak Power!
That's freak power
That's freak power
Freak Power!
That's Freak Power!
[Obviously one of the things that I have to think... I have to appreciate about America that if I couldn't I'd be stupid or insane, is that uh... for good or ill... I can function here. And, uh... I don't think there are many societies or social, political systems, where I could function the way I am now. And perhaps a lot of people would think that's much better; that's the best argument for destroying the system, it gets rid of people like me.]
