Andrew Jackson Jihad (AJJ) - All The Dead Kids Lyrics






I can't tell you why your children are dying,
but I can offer you my sympathy.
And I can't show you where your children are buried,
'cause they're not.
They're not buried anymore.

You can shout it from the roof-tops,
you'll be preaching to the choir.
And you better get started on this funeral pyre.

And I wish I could cry tears of blood but I can't,
my body just isn't built that way.
And I hope all this suffering amounts to one good fucking thing,
but it won't, because we can't see that far.

You can shout it from the roof-tops,
you'll be preaching to the choir.
And you better get started on this funeral pyre,
and one day I will truly set myself on fire
so you can see how dim my light is.
So you can see how dim is my light.

    Does anyone have tab for All the Dead Kids? I only have the the strum pattern and that shit is too good not to obsess over

  7. J.... S....

    I have an insanely old, scratched-to-death, burned CD with this song on it, and it's labeled as: 'Nature', so I'm glad to know the ACTUAL name of this song(s). I really love AJJ!!

  8. b.... ....

    RIP Revolver. Your presence in the Valley will forever be missed.

  9. M.... ....

  12. A.... ....

    This f*cking second part...

  13. B.... _....

    The voice cracks tho

  14. C.... W....

    The brightness of a Taylor guitar and the uplifting tone of Sean's voice, juxtaposed with the less optimistic themes of the lyrics, are just so wonderful.

  15. L.... C....

    I didn't have as much fun at their show as I had hoped due to the crowd, but galaxy almighty I love them. As far as the name change goes - I respect it, but I strongly disagree with the thought process behind it. They should've changed their name to Andrew Jackson's Fucking Jihad. But that is me and they are them and there is no love lost.

  16. J.... N....

    Awesome stuff man...what does it all mean?

  17. A.... a....

    Sean needs to calm down just watching his hands gave me 26 different kinds of carpal tunnel.

  18. K.... ....

    Their sound is so fucking good it almost turns me on.

  19. S.... ....

    This is weird

    S.... ....

    Sam is cool
    Sam is not cool

  23. C.... S....

    everytime i come back to this it kills me

  24. �.... ....

    His expressions show you how intense music REALLY is. Once you're into it, it's hard to get out of it. You just get so passionate with it if you let yourself. It's truly beautiful

  25. E.... T....

    Dang! They should have done We shall all die alone sometime and forest fire. XD

  26. J.... N....

    Stay away from "Mtv. idiots" like these. This is exactly why: The highly controversial article by Ian MIles Cheong: 'Google Researcher: Porn Featuring Violence Against Women Is More Popular Among Women Than Men' proves it. Get that article, make it "go viral", as they they say, so that we can expose these fucking disgusting animals. ¶ Firstly, renounce clubs, bars, lounges, etc., & the venues for mating rituals. These places are determined by the feminine - epicenters of male collusion, wealth transfer, & just making you - the male - to be something you're not. You will lose money. By renouncing & working on yourself to set your own terms, operate with the attitude that every whore in such a place is a disloyal slut with various other problems that you should not be trying to fix. ¶ The males who frequent bars or clubs are delusional & only do so to get drunk to try to speak on the feminine level: "UUUah, beer & shit....", & most of them are all striving to be accepted by whores by basically emulating female psychology. This can also be done by males employing a skewed form of masculinity, even turning to violence, &, not a lot of people realize this, but it's actually defined by the feminine. The most extreme, &, of course, not all cases are like that, but there are correlations, is that is main focus is eliminating competition & securing access to whores he believes you might be competing with him for, whether you are or not. They feel threatened. This is the guy who attacks other males both in the physical & indirect sense. He ruins you're good time if you're having one simply because you're good time is a threat to his access to whores, & he realizes that his access to whores depends on his "sports competition" ¶ Women often seek these types of men as a meas of making sure other males don't "get out of line"/maintain collectivism. ¶ When women are aloud complete freedom of sexual expression, as they have been today, the first thing that they will request, with bad, scattered communication, is varying degrees of simulated rape/abuse/ disgrace, etc. (it's not a "sensitive" thing; it's: How can I even take that seriously?) , &, yet, people don't realize that male male sexuality is vastly different - mainly bodily-visual - because we're bombarded with things like entertainment. Boys are being taught, expected to do some ranging version of '50 Shades Of Greed' or G.G. Allin, or something else really stupid. ( also accounting for the true cause of the infertility problem of high intelligence families - because females are waiting & trying to flee to get to something unreal, & let's realize it, most women hate these free-way builder types of men - males who are actually making something of value), & this is one of the reasons why female determination of social structures must be stopped. ¶ The spectrum continues all the way to whores even offering themselves for marriage with high-profile serial Killers like Richard Ramirez, & nearly no one notices this. They even just make songs about it, etc., like when it was sensationalized during the infamy of Richard Ramirez of, from cross-state, women actually competing over his attention. ¶ Why does this happen? It's about access to novelty. ¶ Also, before I got slandered by all these "Mtv. fags", the real reason I quit all of that was because I was noticing that those whores masturbate to G.G. Allin raping them, or something like that, & I was the only one who noticed I should not be in any competition for fucking scraps.

    I can't tell you why your children are dying,
    but I can offer you my sympathy.
    And I can't show you where your children are buried,
    'cause they're not.
    They're not buried anymore.

    You can shout it from the roof-tops,

    So you can see how dim is my light.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------

    And I'd like to build a giant machine
    That crushes the mountains and burns all the trees
    And pees in the desert and dies up the seas
    And melts all the ice caps and makes nature bleed
    Cause I want nature to suffer
    And I want nature to cry
    And I want nature to spit in my mouth
    And I want nature to die
    And I want to be a big ball of meat
    That bees can buzz around and eat
    And feast on my liver and rot out my teeth
    And chew on my eyeballs until I'm deceased
    Cause I deserve displeasure
    And I really want to cry
    And I think you should spit in my face
    Because I am a werewolf

  44. K.... K....

    w.... ....

    Hahaha damn, in spanish caca is shit

  51. J.... W....

    I got a real Dead Kennedy's vibe from the opening lyrics, and I really enjoyed it

    J.... W....

    honestly, several songs have a similar vibe

  52. i.... l....

    Why is this so intense

    i.... l....

    i love raccoons passion

  53. J.... C....

    holy shit this is rad!

  54. M.... F....

    Having moshed to this song, I can say that this song is fucking insane live.

    M.... F....

    A Very Paranoid Android I saw them last summer in Portland and we moshed. It's not as intense as what most people think of as moshing though. I feel like it's more just a release of tension and energy. Just really intense dancing. Nobody is throwing punches or anything. It was seriously one of the most amazing concert experiences I've ever had.

    M.... F....

    I went to a Death Grips concert and moshing is pretty intense. Not like intentionally trying to hurt somebody but we put our weight in them, push them into the madness and jump around randomly, and whenever someone falls, obviously we pick them up so they don't get trampled on, pretty chaotic. I am going to see AJJ this December at SF, maybe the energy would be similar but the venue is most likely going to be cramped. I'm pretty low energy too but I work out enough to handle the craziness. I've been a fan since sophomore year of high school 5 years ago and this is my first time seeing them live.

    M.... F....

    Who the fuck moshes to AJJ or any folk-punk lmao

    M.... F....

    Brady I was caught off guard when people started mashing at an AJJ concert. They even mashed at White Face Black Eyes

    M.... F....

    Saw them live two years back with my ex who didn't know they moshed, she had a panic attack and I got punched a few times (I had so much adrenaline I cheered with people when I did get bruises and a busted lip) every time though they were all genuinely nice, grabbing onto each other during slow songs and swaying too it or bumping into each other with such joy and ferocity to music I never knew could bring so many people together. (I cried a lot to say the very least) most intense mosh I was in was for Mastodon which had hulking giants bigger than two of me combined pushing people into the ground and over all leaving me so winded I thought I was going to pass out.

  55. R.... M....

    Love this band

  56. R.... M....

    Love this band

  57. D.... ....

    Holy. Shit. This is awesome.

    D.... ....

    +ndSpaz took the words right out of my mouth man

  58. T.... G....

    Man, I just Love Sean's voice! But it does not match his face at all.

  59. M.... R....

    Dude. I love it.

  60. G.... C....

    Nice!!! Ghost Mice split jammage!!! Amazing recording...from my favorite amazing band

  61. D.... L....

    I really like Sean's glasses, anyone know the brand???

  62. S.... L....

    I love AAJ but fuck I miss the two piece.

    S.... L....

    Aren't like all folk punk bands against using those kinds of words

    S.... L....

    there was only 2 people when i saw them six months ago

    S.... L....

    I’m sure it kinda depends on what there doing that decides how many people they have I saw then live a couple months ago and it was just the two

    S.... L....

    Scott Lavender my band is a two piece. Just me and my brother

    S.... L....

    Agreed...love music

  63. S.... R....

    Can't stop listening to this...

  64. T.... ....

    amazing

  65. S.... ....

    This gives me chills, I love it. Can't wait for the release.

  66. K.... V....

    Amazing.

  67. Z.... M....

    AJJ like never plays these two, nice to hear this

    Z.... M....

    @Bill Frito I've seen them 6 or 7 times and I've heard these songs at least 5 times live. Maybe it is a Chicago thing?

    Z.... M....

    I've asked them to before the show every time I've seen them and they've always been really nice about it and done it.

    Z.... M....

    I have an insanely old, scratched-to-death, burned CD with this song on it, and it's labeled as: 'Nature', so I'm glad to know the ACTUAL name of this song(s). I really love AJJ!!

    Z.... M....

    @Jackson Sneed that's dope

  68. I.... I....

    I love Sean Bonnette's expression at the end. It seems to say "Yeah guys, we just rocked it. We could not have done better." while also seeming solemn. Love these guys.

    I.... I....

    To me it says, "I am a werewolf.", Accept, Reflect. But then, that's just me.

    I.... I....
