One of my best and favorite songs I ever wrote... About a guy who got beat up by cops so bad they put him in a terminal coma and disfigured him... He was simply mentally ill and wnated to speak to his priest in the middle of the night. It infuriated me. The cops got mere slaps on the fingers for killing this guy... The song's nihilistic and we used to start the shows early in our career with this one and I'd go completely berserk, destroy equipment... The show were epic but we quickly got noticed and the crowds grew...
lyrics
FIXED
Well that guy got his face kicked-in by cops
That guy plugged on machines to keep him alive
He aint gonna get fixed
Can't fix this
Well that kid got his life all screwed up
He got a gram in his fix, he wants to fly
He aint gonna get fixed
Can't fix this
He aint gonna get fixed
Can't fix this
Can't fix this, Can't fix this
Can't fix this, Can't fix this
And that dog, he keeps running off
Across the streets, reckless for breeding
We should get him fixed
Keep him quiet
Well it's just like the macho with a V.D.
Aaww, we should get him fixed!
Fixed for good
We should get him fixed!
Fixed for good
Can't fix this, Can't fix this
Can't fix this, Can't fix this
Can't fix this, Can't fix this
Can't fix this, Can't fix this
"Well it's a sick world, bad planet.
Send it back to the T.V. repairman,
he could get it fixed.
We should save our generation:
...Get it fixed!"
