Intro: 
----------------------------------------
 ...is within my body . . . alright go
        
 Ahh! Four! four I just said, you faggot piece of shit on the ground .
 Four?  
 Four?!?
    
 Goooo!
 Oh, hey, what are you talking about Ross?
 hey song goes  ...Erh!...Erh!...Erh!...
 hey, are you saying so there's no clicks
 hey, we're recording, now start
 Just fucking do it damn it!
  
 I wanna get a twist.  I wish we could put twist on a fucking tape . . . 
 Wanna hear it?
 stupid 
 Fuck you!  Fuck you!  
 Huh Heuh! Goooo!
 Okay . . . piece of shit!
---------------------------------------
Anger inside, builds within my body
Why you hate me, what have I done-you tried to hit me

Dream to makin'(?), if you like
Throw your hate at me, with all your might
Hate me cause I'm strange, (hate me/and mean?)
Tell me I'm a pussy, an' you're harder than me
What's with you boy, think hard
A tatooed body to hide who you are
Scared to be honest, be yourself-a cowardly man

I don't run around trying to be what's not within me 
Look into my eyes, I am free-you're just a wanna-be

Dream to makin'(?), if you like
Throw your hate at me, with all your might
Hate me cause I'm strange, (hate me/and mean?)
Tell me I'm a pussy, an' you're harder than me
What's with you boy, think hard
A tatooed body to hide who you are
Scared to be honest, be yourself-a cowardly man, to come out

Hit me clown because I'm not from your town, no, hit me clown(4x)

Clown you ain't shit, turn around, get your face split
Clown you ain't shit, turn around, can't you face me     (2x)

Time(?), if you like
Throw your hate at me, with all your might
Hate me cause I'm strange, (hate me/and mean?)
Tell me I'm a pussy, an' you're harder than me
What's with you boy, think hard
A tatooed body to hide who you are
Scared to be honest, be yourself-a cowardly man

Just a fucking little
Just a fucking mental
Just a fucking little(5x)

This one was a bastard.  Transcribing the intro riffs were difficult, but 
I think I got them down. Munky's pick scraping part is too hard to 
transcribe exzactly because every guitar is different, and if I gave 
location in inches or centimeters it would be different for everybody.  
Lyrically, the chorus' first words may be wrong so I put what I thought 
it would be. In the bridge "Hit me clown", he might be saying "Hate me 
clown".  At the end of the bridge and at the end of the song, he switches 
between lyrics.  Next up "Daddy"...
