S.T.D. (Socially Transmitted Death)

SEX - No longer what it used to be Infection and disease The gifts that you get for free When you forget to protect (Chorus) Pray to God they find it A cure for this killer disease Prophylactic warning Bringing us all to our knees CRIME - Pregnant mothers shooting their veins Babies inherit the pain Forced to live their lives in shame Drugs they use and abuse Grab another needle Stick it in under your vein Coursing through your body End in agonizing PAIN! Babies born with AIDS every day Innocent must pay Victims of an uncaring race Doctors unsure of a cure I can feel me rotting Feel my bones decay I don't want to die But I don't want to live this way S.T.D. - Socially transmitted death Antigens - idenfity Vicious war - deep inside Helper cells - degenerate Retrovirus - generates Extinction of a dying race Future looking grim Take the time to stop and think Before you stick it in You walk a razor's edge Between your life and death And every day you sit and wait for your last breath It may be five years until you can tell That your remaining days will be disease-ridden hell Virus breeding on the streets Death from a syringe The price you pay for being gay Payback for your sin No future, life decays Your body rots away Health failing, mind is gone Your dying disease lives on END - Destroyed by a miniscule foe Painful death comes slow Languishing your final breath Socially transmitted death (Repeat chorus)
