"No More Mr. Nice Guy"
m. and l. Alice Cooper and Michael Bruce
Hidden Treasures (1995)


I used to be such a sweet, sweet thing, 'til they got a hold of me
I opened doors for little old ladies, I helped the blind to see
I got no friends 'cause they read the papers, they can't be seen with me
And I'm gettin' shot down and I'm feeling mean
No more mister nice guy, no more mister clean
No more mister nice guy, they say he's sick, he's obscene
My dog bit me on the leg today, my cat clawed my eye
My mom's been thrown out of the society circle, my dad's had to hide
I went to church incognito and everybody rose
The reverend Smith, he recognized me, punched me in the nose
No more mister nice guy, no more mister clean
No more mister nice guy, they say he's sick, he's obscene


"Breakpoint"
m. and l. Dave Mustaine, David Ellefson and Nick Menza
Hidden Treasures (1995)


Make up the rules for me to live by, rules you break and just let it slide
You try and find you inside of me, be as great as you want me to be
Hypocrite, the word that fits, do as you say not as you do
You're pushing me to a breakpoint, pushing me, push, push me to a breakpoint
Self esteem you seem to lack, point the finger, there's three pointing back
Control's the illusion with all good intent
Bad times are contagious, you laugh and infect
Criticist, the word that fits, put me down to lift you up
You're pushing me to a breakpoint, pushing me, push, push me to a breakpoint
Watching pain is your only pleasure, sick fascination for someone's disaster
Self suffering since you were born, mess with the bull and you'll get the horn
Misery, the word that fits, can't seem to smile 'till someone's sad
You're pushing me to a breakpoint, you're pushing me, push, push me
Push, push, push me to a breakpoint
In my opinions as a professional I recommend we straight-jacket the son-of-a-bitch
Lock him in a rubber room, sedate him, heavily
And when he wakes up, If he wakes up, we'll see If he can be a nice boy
Well...I don't know...it's gonna hurt me more that it's gonna hurt him. Let's do it!
You push me to a breakpoint, breakpoint, push me to a breakpoint, breakpoint, don't push me, you piece of shit!


"Go To Hell"
m. and l. Dave Mustaine, David Ellefson, Marty Friedman and Nick Menza
Hidden Treasures (1995)


I'm not going to wake up today, they've pulled my plug the picture fades
And as my body decays mold begins to fill my grave
The smell of death permeates the silk within my coffin lays, go to hell
As they bury me now six feet there my body lies
Still feel like I'm going down I hear a distant wailing cry
God something must've gone wrong and much too late I realize, go to hell
I saw my funeral that day, I know who didn't show to mourn
My judgement was life in hell, pillars of pain and thorns
My only friend's the goat with 666 between his horns, go to hell
Place all your trust here in me, rest assured these things I know
And as Charon sails the sea, your journey too shall end below
Ah yes you're all sitting ducks, it's true you reap what you sow, go to hell
Now I lay me down to sleep, blah, blah, blah my soul to keep
If I die before I wake, I'll go to hell for heaven's sake


"Angry Again"
m. and l. Dave Mustaine
Hidden Treasures (1995)


The more of you that I inspect, the more of me I see reflect
The more I try to read your lips, the more the mask you're wearing rips
But when I seek out your voice, my ears are overcome with noise
You show and tell with greatest ease, raving impossibilities
Engaged in crime I grasp my throat, enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload, angry again, angry again, angry ow
And when the story takes a twist, if folds like a contortionist
Slight of hand and quick exchange, the old tricks have been rearranged
Engaged in crime I grasp my throat, enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload, angry again, angry again, angry
The searing of the sinew, my body fights for air
The ripping of the tissue, my lungs begin to tear
Gravity's got my bones, it pulls my flesh away
The steam finally dissipates, I make out my sweaty face
Association that I choose, game I inevitably lose
Governed by laws set up by me, fracture its jaw to let me be
A cut-out cardboard condo maze, filled with an insubordinate race
Irrational youths stop to stare as music rubber hosed the air
Engaged in crime I grasp my throat, enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload, angry again, angry again, angry again and again and again, again
Engaged in crime I grasp my throat, enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload, angry again, angry again, angry ow


"99 Ways To Die"
m. and l. Dave Mustaine
Hidden Treasures (1995)


If I see the morning hours, I'll have one more yesterday
Take life from tomorrow cause I've burned out my today
If I get up to the top I know I'll just go back downhill
Gotta' terminal future and it's time to write my will
Down another glass of courage and a shot of thorazine
We're not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die, we're not ready to see you yet
Gotta' short between the earphones, wringing my hands in dismay
A more efficient maniac with two feet in the grave
Ain't got no last words to say, yellow streak right up my spine
The gun in my mouth was real and the taste blew my mind
In a black tie and straight jacket, man I'm gonna try again
We're not ready to see you yet, 99 ways to die, we're not ready to see you yet
Demitasse of arsenic, Try on this tie, never mind the tree
There is only death and danger in the sockets of my eyes
A playground of illusion, no one plays they only die
There's a prison in my mind and the bars are gonna break
I'm as mad as a hatter and strung out just the same
Taunting rigor mortis, I feel it draw me in


"Paranoid"
m. and l. William Ward, Tony Iommi, Terry "Geezer" Butler and John "Ozzy" Osbourne
Hidden Treasures (1995)


Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my mind
People think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time
All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy
Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something to pacify
Can you help me occupy my brain? Oh yeah
I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find
I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind
Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry
Happiness I cannot feel and love to me us so unreal
And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state
I tell you to enjoy life I wish I could but it's too late


"Diadems"
m. and l. Dave Mustaine
Hidden Treasures (1995)


Sacriledge and blasphemy sets the stage today
The more insatiable the sex, the more swelled our tongues became
As pre-historic as it seems, this is now, today
As pre-historic as it seems, this is now
Talkin' 'bout no vision, talkin' 'bout no dream
The Harlot puddles for her lies, from where she speaks
I look above and see entrails in the sky
This song ain't over 'til the fat lady dies
One man rules the earth and rides the seven-headed beast
Ten diadems, to rule them all, to crown them all, the world, religion at his feet
Dreams are told of dreams of old, this day will surely come
So, run my child and hide your face, once you've been marked it's finished, done
You'll become one, you're mine, you're one
I saw a new earth today, I saw a former pass away
I saw a new earth today, I saw a former pass away
Vengence is mine, vengence is mine
The Netherworld and Sheol are never satisfied
So the eyes of man are Never sat-is-fied
I saw a new Earth today, I saw a former pass away


"Problems"
m. and l. Johnny Rotten, Glen Matlock, Stephen Jones and Paul Cook
Hidden Treasures (1995)


Too many problems, oh why am I here? I need to be me, 'cause you're all to clear
And I can see there's something wrong with you, oh, what do you expect me to do?
At least I gotta know what I wanna be, don't come to me if you need pity
Are you lonely, you got no-one, you got your body in suspension
That's a problem, problem, problem, the problem is you
Eat your heart out on a plastic tray, you don't do what you want and you fade away
You work for me, you're working nine-to-five, it's too much fun of being alive
I'm using my feet for my human machine, you work for me, living for the screen
Are you lonely, all needs catered, you got your brains dehydrated
Problem, problem, problem, the problem is you, oh what what you gonna do, problem, problem
Problem, problem, problem, the problem is you, well, what you gonna do with your problem
The problem is you, problem
I ain't death trip, but I ain't automatic, you work for me, just stay ecstatic
Don't you give me any orders, to people like me, there is no order
Bet you thought you had it all worked out, bet you thought you knew what I was about
Bet you thought you'd solved all your problems, but you are the problem
Problem, problem, problem, the problem is you, oh, what you gonna do with your problem?
I'll leave it up to you, oh problem, the problem is you, you got a problem, oh what you gonna do?
They know a doctor, gonna take you away, they take you away and they throw away the key
They don't want you and they don't want me, you got a problem the problem is you
Problem, well, what you gonna do? Problem, have you got a problem?
Problem, well you got a problem, problem (x17)
