Slopcannon - One More Round

[Verse 1 — mechanical, low] Found it sleeping under iron rain, its mouth packed full of earth, a dead machine with someone’s name scratched where they’d guessed its worth. Drag it from the mud Bolt it to the ground Feed it every failure the degenerates have found Pack it in Ram it down Hear the bastard make a sound [Pre-Chorus] FIRE! FIRE! GIVE ME SLOP OR GIVE ME DEATH! FIRE! FIRE! GIVE ME SLOP OR GIVE ME DEATH! [Chorus — enormous clean vocals] **LOAD THE SLOPCANNON** Let the whole world shake If it doesn't have an answer Then we'll give it one to make **LOAD THE SLOPCANNON** Every failure gets a turn I don't need to know the target I just need to watch it burn And when the smoke rolls back And the broken pieces fall— **ONE MORE ROUND.** **LOAD IT ALL.** [Verse 2] So bring me every broken thing, every promise that came apart. There’s room inside the chamber for the wreckage of the heart. Turn the Slopcannon toward the horizon, let the whole dead skyline move. Give me one good scar across the earth as the rising smoke sets the mood. Pack it in Ram it down Hear the bastard make a sound If it fits It's ammunition If it doesn't, USE PERCUSSION! [Pre-Chorus] FIRE! FIRE! GIVE ME SLOP OR GIVE ME DEATH! FIRE! FIRE! GIVE ME SLOP OR GIVE ME DEATH! [Chorus — enormous clean vocals] **LOAD THE SLOPCANNON** Let the whole world shake If it doesn't have an answer Then we'll give it one to make **LOAD THE SLOPCANNON** Every failure gets a turn I don't need to know the target I just need to watch it burn And when the smoke rolls back And the broken pieces fall— **ONE MORE ROUND.** **LOAD IT ALL.** **[Bridge — solemn, huge]** I asked the sky for certainty It never answered me So I built a louder question Out of scrap and blasphemy And if I climb inside the barrel Don't you dare call it goodbye Point me somewhere interesting **AND LET THE FUCKER FLY.** [Final Refrain] LOAD. RAM. LOCK. FIRE. FAIL. LEARN. AIM. HIGHER. NO THEORY. NO PRAYER. NO GUARANTEE. JUST PUT ANOTHER BAD IDEA INSIDE THE MACHINERY.
