lyrics

Tear canisters and the pepper spray
Shotgun shells and the gas grenades
Armored trucks and the bullet proof vests
Helmet on his head and a badge on his chest
He's out for war, better know your rights
Disgust in his heart, combat boots laced tight
Better bite the curb you're under arrest
Cuffs on your wrists or a shell to your chest

*Helmethead*

He's fueled by fear and prays on the weak
Thunderous lies in the words that he speaks
He's a merchant of death and business is great
A valuable pawn in the grand police state

*Helmethead*
*Helmethead*
*Helmethead*
*Helmethead*

He's fueled by fear and prays on the weak
Thunderous lies in the words that he speaks
He's a merchant of death and business is great
A valuable pawn in the grand police state
You owe him pain time to pay your debts
A bigger risk of violence than a terrorist threat
A wolf among sheep a hidden thorn in the mud
Helmethead's the law and the wage is paid in blood

He's out for war, better know your rights
Disgust in his heart, combat boots laced tight
Better bite the curb you're under arrest
Cuffs on your wrists or a shell to your chest
