Suicidal Tendencies - Possessed to skate
Suicidal Tendencies [Possessed to skate Lyrics - Join the Army. 1987]
Let’s skate!
Seemed like such innocent toys
He was the All-American boy
Got some skates at eight years old
Now the story can be toldBeware he’s possessed to skate!

Possessed To Skate
Skating takes him up in height
He’s a pilot on a modern flight
See him flying through the air
If he don’t land then he don’t care
[CHORUS]
Cause he rips-he rips
When he skates-he skates
Cause he never hesitates
He’s the wizard on the wheels
Like a modern gladiator ain’t got no fears
So skate
He shoots the pool like a launching pad
If it ain’t insane then you can’t get rad
Skating is all that’s on his mind
He’s skating radical all the time
[CHORUS]
Beware he’s possessed to skate!
Looks like a magic carpet ride
Six foot airiels inverts backside
Optical illusion it must be
He redefines insanity
[CHORUS]
Doesn’t understand why you’d wanna walk
Ain’t got time to sit and talk
Used to be just like you and me
Now he’s an outcast of society
Beware he’s possessed to skate!
And the skating’s getting radical

About Suicidal Tendencies :
Suicidal Tendencies emerged from Venice, Calif., in 1983, successfully melding Thrash Metal with the speedcore of Punk. Embracing the “heavy” portion of metal without the tongue-in-cheek antics, the punk kids took notice of Suicidal Tendencies and no longer had to hide their metal collections from their friends.
The band was cross-cultural and streetsmart, often incorporating aspects of gang culture with their skate punk roots. The group’s self-titled first release was a frenetic one, super-charged by lead singer Mike Muir’s political observations and offbeat humor.
That album’s single, “Institutionalized” — with its fierce chorus and eminently quotable lyrics “All I wanted was a Pepsi / Just one Pepsi” — had limited commercial success. Riding their wave of early success, Muir and a group of rotating band members continued a release schedule with results that we uneven at best. Join the Army (Caroline), was released in ‘87, a full four years after their debut, and equally embraced Motorhead and speedcore. Lights…Camera….Action, their first for Epic in ‘90, was a ferociously loud album with Muir once again conveying his political and social ideas, while ’92s The Art of Rebellion was more mainstream and filled with standard rock cliches.
Suicidal for Life found the band embracing some of its earlier ferocity in ‘94, not so much with the music as with the use of obscenities. Muir and band returned to the world of indies in ‘98, releasing Six the Hard Way on their own Suicidal Records. Epic Records.
