Ready to Go
(Broderick)

We lost control, set fire to our clothes
I just laughed and turned my head
A whisper in a void, and the whole world’s unemployed
And now it’s time to party for the living dead

We throw parades like hand grenades, those better days, are ours

We know our history, we are ready to go
We know we’re built to bleed, we are ready to go

They’ll tell ya that they don’t like the way you talk
Tey’ll tell you that every man can be bought

Look them in the eye, say go ahead and try

We know our history, we are ready to go
We ain’t some kids to feed, we are ready to go

Oh ya know that you gotta give a lot to grow
Ready or not they not gonna stop the show
You’ll never know what I gave to rock n roll
There's blood on the strings and the microphones

We are ready, ready, ready to go
