Queensryche needs DeGarmo to be there or we are only seeing half of what a once great band used to be. Chris actually chooses to fly private jet's now for rich clients...he says he makes more money than he would touring with QR.

Queensryche-Empire



Last night the word came down, ten dead in Chinatown.
Innocent, their only crime was being in the wrong place, at the wrong time
Too bad, people say what's wrong with the kids today
Tell you right now they've got nothing to lose

They're building EMPIRE!

Johnny used to work after school
at the cinema show.
Gotta hustle if he wants an education
he's got a long way to go.
Now he's out on the street all day
selling Crack to the people who pay.
Got an AK-47 for his best friend
business the American way.






Eastside meets Westside downtown.
No time, the walls fall down

Can't you feel it coming? EMPIRE! Can't you hear it calling?
Black man, trapped again. hold his chain in his hand.
Brother killing brother for the profit of another,
Game point, nobody wins. Decline, right on time.
What happened to the dream sublime?
Tear it all down, we'll put it up again. Another EMPIRE?

Eastside meets Westside downtown.
No time, no line, the walls fall down.

Can't you feel it coming? EMPIRE!
Can't you hear it coming EMPIRE!
Can't someone here stop it...??!!

Queensryche-Resistance


Protests in New York.
Listen to the call of the wild.
Brother, sisters carrying signs.
Breathe deep before it's too late;
The sky is falling, burning your eyes.
Down in New Orleans river's boiling.
Nothing living, nothing to eat.
Thank the Lord, daddy's working 8-5.
Paying the doctor, baby's got cancer.

Give and take.
Has all we've learned been wrong?
Look around at what we've been given.
Maybe we've taken too long.

Resistance- shouts the man on the right.
Can't solve the problem overnight.
Resistance- Listen to the call of the wild.





Burning coal.
Got to keep the company warm as
the rain keeps killing the trees.
Cut 'em down quick.
Pay the man his wage, he's making paper
to fuel the "Information Age".
Out in the midwest,
hear the roar of the plough,
turning grassland into sand.
Got to feed the people more every day
but the wind keeps blowing the land away.

Give and take.
Has all we've learned been wrong?
Look around at what we've been given.
Maybe we've taken too long.

Resistance- shouts the man on the right.
Can't solve the problem overnight.
Resistance- Liberal opposition crying violation.
Stop the madness.
Resistance- Through the din, one voice we should hear.
Resistance- Listen to the call of the wild.

There's no easy solution.
The price is high, and it's time to pay.
Turn of the century vision
focused on a better way.
Resistance- shouts the man on the right.
Can't solve the problem overnight.

Resistance- Liberal opposition crying violation.
Stop the madness.
Resistance- Through the din, one voice we should hear.
Resistance- Listen to the call of the wild.

Heaven Forbid that Kid n Play or Another Bad Creation come out in support of Kerry. Our only hope is that Vanilla Ice and Jesus Jones declare their allegiance to Bush!

What can you expect of people who grow up in liberal laalaa land, aka the Supreme Soviet of Seattle?

These guys are too stupid to pee straight.

First two albums were best... 1st- self titled "Queensryche" 2nd "Warning" They used to play Heavy Metal, then they went "concept"... wanted to be the next Pink Floyd... I quit buyin' and listening. Saw first album tour... they opened for Kiss. Warning tour they opened for Iron Maiden (Piece of Mind tour).

As you wish:

No, I didn't lie;
Screw you if you don't "get" my reply.
When asked I've always said,
"We had to oust Saddam
Or we'd be dead."
Your mind tricked you to hear the blame
'Cause when I said "wrong war" it's not the same (at all).
So here it is, my only stance:
Should we be in the Middle East?
Yes, most surely... which is to say, no way!

To this day I've tried and tried
To clue you peons in to my replies.
You know it's not unfair
To vote to for us go to war... and then despair.
When the vote came to my turn
To arm the men, well I had to send
A message loud and clear
That going off to fight a war
Is never right, and I should know:
I fought in Viet-nam!

I- I will never lie to you.
I- I will help you see the truth.
I- I will show you that I'm right.
I- I offer up this ruse, in Nuanced Duplicity.

RE:

.... a line from the song "Revolution Calling" that I often think of whenever I read about the MSM's latest shenanigans.

I used to trust the media To tell me the truth, tell us the truth But now I've seen the payoffs Everywhere I look Who do you trust when everyone's a crook?

Yep, that was the best line in the best album they ever did. Based on the band's recent comments, they appear to have lost their intelligence.
