IA Tape  

         This was the first real tape produced. Recording was done at Smart by Butch Vig and Steve Marker. It included eight songs, with the stand out being "We are not alone" which caused many a pig-pile when played live at the Wilmar center. This tapes songs were often compared with Black Flag and GBH but David's guitar and Jim's bass style really made these songs more original sounding than was given credit for. Mike did not play on this tape because he just had left the band to be in Westworld with Thomas and Skippy. If he would have know they were going into the studio well...  This tape came out in 1983.

Imminent Attack Lyrics

We won't listen to a word they say of how we're supposed to be

We don't care what they think  I know they can't see

We are not alone We are not aloneeeeeee

?

We are tired of the upper class and the way they push us around

We are tired of acting inferior when we should stand up and be proud

We are not alone We are not aloneeeeeee

?

They have all the money, they are so damn rich

Why should we have to suffer it just makes me sick

Jimmy Carter Ronald Reagan Nelson Rockefeller

They are so damn rich

Why should we have to suffer it makes me sick

Sick sick sick sick sick sick, sick sick sickkkkkk

  Who are you who are you why cant you just tell the truth?

Who are you who are you why cant you just tell the truth?

Who are you to think that you can tell me how, tell me how

Who are you to think that you can do it now, do it now

I don't need anyone to come in to my life

I don't need anyone that might as well be my wife

I don't need anyone to come in to my life

I don't need anyone that might as well be my wife

 

Punk is silly and insignificant, not worth the money that is spent

Punk is silly and insignificant, not worth the money that is spent

nothing in it nothing to gain

If you don't believe me ask St Germaine

We went to school but we didn't fit in

So we all shaved our heads and wore safety pins

According to her we're all in art class now we all have mohawks

stick it up her ass

nothing in it nothing to gain

If you don't believe me go ask St Germaine

Punk is silly and insignificant, not worth the money that is spent

Punk is silly and insignificant, not worth the money that is spent

nothing in it nothing to gain

If you don't believe me ask St Germaine

This song was about a story that appeared...

do what you want don't be afraid

they won't stop you anyway

doesn't matter what you do

they're gonna make it worse or you

do what you do  if you don't you're a fool

do what you want don't be afraid

they won't stop you anyway

doesn't matter what you do

they're gonna make it worse or you

do what you want do what you want

do what you do  if you don't you're a fool

do what you want don't be afraid

they won't stop you anyway

do what you want don't be afraid

do what you want

 

Life is short do what you want

Can't spend it all in a restaurant

Take a chance quit your job

What you gonna do be a slob?

Bad habits, smoke a pack a day

Bad Habits, chew your nails away

Bad Habits, Be a slut

(scream)

Take a chance quit your job

What you gonna do be a slob?

Bad Habits, Bad Habitsssssssssssss

Look at the pain in my eyes

It is real it's no disguise

Don't you think I'll forget

The way you used to treat me like shit

We don't care what you say, we took control today!

I hate the general public of today

They look at me and they just turn away

They wonder why we play with such rage

Now here we are up on the stage

We don't care what you say, we took control today!

We don't care what you say, we took control today!

Look at the pain in my eyes

It is real it's no disguise

Don't you think I'll forget

The way you used to treat me like shit

We don't care what you say

????? They are fucking assholes anyway ?????

 

Say the world is going to end you know we're all going to die

When they push the magic button, we will all say goodbye

They think they can run our lives, then they decide our fate

Life is getting so bad, I can't turn back it's too late

(scream)

We will all die in style, we will go up in flames

Original: We will be the biggest mushroom (changed to we will all shave our heads)

and you'll know who to blame

Worlds Gonna End  Worlds Gonna End

Worlds Gonna End  World is Gonna End

This is really sort of a Black Sabbath song...

We're here at last we play real fast we're gonna be real cool

We're here at last we play real fast we'll make you a fool

Sirens will wail released from jail bombs are gonna drop

Sirens will wail released from jail I can't stay on top

Imminent Attack is coming fast see the flags at half mast

Imminent Attack is coming fast see the flags at half mast

Imminent Attack Imminent Attack Imminent Attack
