[Verse 1: Billy Obey]
My family says to wear a mask cause I'm ugly
And I get to kill the food cause I’m lucky
It doesn't bug me though, matter fact I enjoy it
Better drawing blood instead of drawing unemployment
I avoided any accidents when I worked in a factory
I'm actually the one who used to kill the cattle see
Til’ they brought in machines and I became obsolete
(Oh poor me) pay attention to the suffering
(Run, run) but no will to escape cause you
(Done, done) another meal on the plate
*Chainsaw sound* That's the sound of your fate
You see a human I see pounds of steak
I don't fully comprehend what I'm doing I just swing for dead
One swift movement, and the impact is deafening
Say one thing and the police begin questioning

[Chorus: Billy Obey]
Aim for the head it's forever the face
Hit em' hit em' with a sledge they die better that way
(No where to run) The Axe Is Family
The Axe Is Family
Aim for the head it's forever the face
Hit em’ hit em’ with a sledge they die better that way
(That motherfuckers, getting away) The Axe Is Family
([?]) The Axe Is Family
[Verse 2: Lee Carver]
They walk away quickly and stare in disgust and gawk
Covered in blood at a highway rest stop
Scour the roads in sweltering heat
Trunk, his head in a sack, roadkill on my teeth
My whole god damn family answers to the beast
Taking off the mask scratch the scabs underneath
You shouldn't pick up hitch hikers
This road is a dead end you expire
Take the tire iron another head splat
Where they rest at (Ha ha ha) ain’t found on Google Maps
It's the last place you wanna visit
We love the tourism, turn 'em all into exhibits
And if you listen you can hear the screams
Through the woods in a pile full of dead leaves
Angel fist to your neck, squeeze
Yo Bubba pass the headcheese
Lick my plate dog dick
One sniff of my supper will make you sick

[Chorus: Billy Obey]
Aim for the head it's forever the face
Hit em’ hit em' with a sledge they die better that way
(It ain't no where to run) The Axe Is Family
The Axe Is Family
Aim for the head it's forever the face
Hit em' hit em' with a sledge they die better that way
(That mothefucker's getting away) The Axe Is Family
([?]) The Axe Is Family
[Verse 3: Joe Black]
This song is a story of what we kill for
I was stillborn but still born
Call me Satan and abused to beat me
Kept me in the basement and refused to feed me
Every now and then they tossed down a stray animal
So at an early age developed traits of a cannibal
Psychosomatic, hieratic as a dope fiend
Evil I see everything as protein
Gotta bring some honor back to this family
Dad let me name the axe that he handed me
He told me bout how fun the chase is (Hoo hoo hoo)
Bring back the meat but I could keep the faces (Alright)
My first victims, a couple on a camping trip
While they slept took my weapon, slammed 'em in the head with it
Bones being broken, hopeless cries
Watch their souls leave their eyes as they laid there pulverized

[Chorus: Billy Obey]
Aim for the head it's forever the face
Hit em' hit em' with a sledge they die better that way
(There ain't no where to run) The Axe Is Family
(He he) The Axe Is Family
Aim for the head it's forever the face
Hit em' hit em' with a sledge they die better that way
(That motherfucker's getting away) The Axe Is Family
([?]) The Axe Is Family
