lyrics
Better get yourself a predator if you want to feel safe in your home,
Get an eagle, lion, alligator and you'll never feel scared or alone,
They can rip a mans head clean off with the click of a finger,
If your neighbours got a lion next door you better get an alligator.
Having something so dangerous is a time bomb waiting to blow,
Fill your bed full of razor blades, you'd expect to find some blood on the pillow.
Bang bang bang "Woohoo", get a lion and you'll look so cool
Get a lion and you'll so hard and you'll look cool too.
How many have to die before we all change the rules,
Cause when your kids get mad they like to walk it into school.
Better get yourself a predator if you want to feel safe in your home,
Desert eagle or a cougar magnum and you'll never feel scared or alone,
They can blow a mans head clean off with the click of a trigger,
If your neighbours got a lion next door you better get an alligator.
Having something so dangerous is a time bomb waiting to blow,
Fill your bed full of razor blades, you'd expect to find some blood on the pillow.
Bang bang bang "Woohoo", get a lion and you'll look so cool
Get a lion and you'll look so hard and you'll look cool too.
How many have to die before we all change the rules,
Cause when your kids get mad they like to walk it into school.
Makes you feel so anxious in your own skin,
if you're not armed you won't win,
Imprison yourself in your home buy in the artillery
in the land of the free
Makes you feel so anxious in your own skin,
if you're not armed you won't win,
So you're armed to the teeth and your finger is itching,
You're a killer! Just waiting for a victim.

This is one of the best albums of last year in our opinion. Heavy guitars, big riffs, strange time signatures and tuning. Its great. The Sparrowhawk Orkestrel
Fat Goth are close friends of ours and totally rock. Huge influence where we're from. Incredible musicianship and dark, dark lyrical content. See them live for full effect. The Sparrowhawk Orkestrel
