Lyrics

Rotting Corpse

Demo One (1986), track 1 · Neck Breaking Fury (1990), track 7

The band’s own name as a song, and it isn’t about a corpse — it’s a shot at the hairspray bands sharing the bill.

We don’t care what you think
We’ll never change
Our views clash with the norm
We’ve lived in pain

Always put down for what you believe
Told you “you’re” wrong
You’ve been put down all your life
It’s been too long

Rotting Corpse
The time has come
For things to change

We’re tired of all the posers and wimps
They’re all the same
Too many people play it safe
There’s other ways

Pout on your makeup to look real nice
It’s your tool
You tease your hair wear high heels
You’re so cool

Our music’s different dirty and fast
It rips your brain
Thrash till death our raging noise
Will drive you insane

We attack your town with our rage
Your body ascends
Screams of fury fill the air
There’s no end
