Testament - Nobody's Fault Lyrics






Lord I must be dreamin'
What else could this be
Everybody's screamin'
Runnin' for the sea

Holy lands are sinkin'
Birds take to the sky
The prophets are all stinkin' drunk
I know the reason why

Eyes are full of desire
Mind is so ill at ease
Everything is on fire
Shit piled up to the knees

Out of rhyme or reason
Everyone's to blame
Children of the season
Don't be lame

Sorry, you're so sorry
Don't be sorry
Man has known
And now he's blown it
Upside-down and hell's the only sound
We did an awful job
And now they say it's nobody's fault

Old St. Andres
Seven years ago
Shove it up their richters
Redlines come and go

Noblemen of courage
Listen with their ears
Spoke but how discouragin'
No one really hears

One of these days you'll be sorry
Too many houses on the stilt
Three million years or just a story
Four on the floor up to the hilt

Out of rhyme or reason
Everyone's to blame
Children of the season
Don't be lame

Sorry, you're so sorry
Don't be sorry
Man has known
And now he's blown it
Upside-down and hell's the only sound
We did an awful job
And now they say it's nobody's fault

Eyes are full of desire
Mind is so ill at ease
Everything is on fire
Shit piled up in debris

California showtime
Five o'clock's the news
Everybody's concubine
Was prone to take a snooze

Sorry, you're so sorry
Don't be sorry
Man has known
And now he's blown it
Upside-down and hell's the only sound
We did an awful job
And now they say it's nobody's fault

Testament Nobody's Fault Comments
  1. J.... S....

    The talent is definitely here... ..just need to slow it down a bit... ..You know, some things you want to enjoy..

  2. R.... C....

    I could see Sebastian Bach singing a cover of this.

  3. E.... H....

    The original is heavier has more soul

  4. W.... S....

    An excellent cover done very tastefully. Unlike >.> the way someone "covered" sound of silence.

  5. b.... r....

    "Shove it up their richters" ???

    The lyric is "showing up their weakness". SMDH

  6. T.... T....

    Downtown Houston, Texas. Brings back old memories.

  7. M.... L....

    Ficou bem melhor que o original.

  8. B.... D....

    Interesting facts: the first place that they show up is The Summit which was an NBA arena often used for concerts (slayer, megadeth, anthrax, judas priest, testament all played there). The second place is The Axiom (I saw morbid angel, deicide, immolation, gorguts, cannibal corpse, and countless others play there). Here's the kicker: In the video, they see Testament being placed on the Summit sign only to become New Testament Conference. The Summit is now Lakewood Church. I could not make that up. Just sayin'

  9. T.... M....

    always loved that video and this song

  10. O.... ....

    Why so much arguing? Awesome that Testament covered a classic. Excellent cover. Aerosmith is still far superior than anything this band will ever do.

    O.... ....

    Alex guitar playing alone is better than anything aero smith has ever done.

  11. R.... ....

    I was rockin this jam before these kids were born, ON VINYL!

  12. M.... ....

    aerosmith cover > this cover.

  13. E.... B....

    Pantera Psycho Holiday is similar also

  14. a.... ....

    I remember watching this after band practice, high as a kite on some great hash.

  15. M.... C....

    the secret to a great cover is great original!!! excellent

    M.... C....

    As is WASP doing Real me by the Who. Who else.

  16. c.... ....

    the abyss ?

  17. D.... D....

    this song blows the original of this planet!! sorry! turn it up!!

  18. j.... m....

    where the he'll did u find this, Aerosmith cover

    j.... m....

    When Testament released "The new order" in 1988, this was one of the songs. It was actually a huge album back then cause Testament was a staple of the metal scene back then. That whole album is really good.

  19. m.... d....

    I never realized til just now that this song was an Aerosmith song, Wich is kind of weird being in my 40s and all, haha!

  20. M.... G....

    In my opinion, Aerosmith version is more powerfull, and more evil. This version is a rapid playing of the original version with a trashier distortion, trashier voice and rudimentary drums with poor feeling from the original.

  21. s.... ....

    Filmed waaaay before alex skolnick became a liberal dishrag..... or was he always one? such a shame that his brain is mush aside from playing guitar

  22. t.... ....

    Mook? It's a cop out because he can't hit the notes like Steven Tyler could. Listen to the original, this is only an okay copy. Even though this supposed to be "thrash metal", the original version by Aerosmith was/is heavier.

  23. I.... P....

    That video was filmed in Houston and the last place was a real club called The Axiom where all the classic concert went down between 1987-1992 Cannibal Corpse, Gwar, Grave, Morbid Angel, GG Alien, even Nitvana played there on their first tour in front of 12 people.

    I.... P....

    iceWaterProductions1
    did this become CARDI's ?

  24. P.... ....

    Aerosmith's song is cool but Testament's is better. I feel like fans of the original are coming here with some kind of preconceived notion, Testament is Thrash Metal if you don't know them. This is like a Thrash version of it, it's not meant to be the same.

    P.... ....

    Testaments version is great, but Steven is a far superior singer to Chuck.

  25. S.... K....

    a damn good cover but I still prefer the original.......

  26. t.... ....

    meh, the chorus sounds like a cop  out. original is better on every level.

    t.... ....

    Its a thrash metal chorus you mook!!! How is it a cop out

  27. v.... ....

    still an awesome tune !!!!!!!

  28. S.... H....

    My friend and I were going to cover this for our new project, and NOW, now LOL, I'm having second thoughts. I love this.

    S.... H....

    My bandmate says he likes the original better, this version has less groove. I think we're going to try doing this with more of an original feel. I'll post on here or something when it's done.

  29. B.... L....

    It's a long way from aerosmith,a heck of a long way.The people in the video gave them a 10 but all I can give them is 5.

  30. A.... Y....

    It's a great cover but i still prefer the original with Aerosmith

    A.... Y....

    no way jose.. i think testament did a very awsome job... long live thrash metal :-))

  31. r.... p....

    i like this better than the original.

    r.... p....

    do you have the Beavis and Butthead action figures ? you know you neeeed them : )

    r.... p....

    no i don't.

    r.... p....

    vinmanr2d2 Todd was the best

    r.... p....

    Really?????!!!!!

    r.... p....

    good song, but theres no question the orignal is better.

  32. M.... ....

    This is an excellent Aerosmith cover from Testament. ROCK ON!!!!!!

  33. L.... C....

    \o/ \m/

  34. J.... A....

    Very; very goOd
    ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

  35. S.... A....

    One of the best covers and one of my most fav albums of the 80's!

  36. u.... ....

    Great cover - but even though the guitars are more distorted, it's still not as heavy or as "evil" as the original Aerosmith version. And I bet Testament themselves would agree with me! 

    u.... ....

    aint got that swing.

  37. G.... B....

    Aerosmith is original and more hard rock athough textament "Rocks" this cover

  38. P.... ....

    A valid opinion. Its normal to want to compare a cover to the original.
    I like both but actually prefer the cover.

  39. J.... ....

    And Aerosmith'song is the original, and more hard rock.

  40. h.... s....

    cover of testament is more THRASH,rsrs

  41. j.... k....

    ok it;s just my opinion.

  42. O.... ....

    -_______- It's different. Fuck your culture of what beats what. Do you prefer breathing or drinking water?

  43. j.... k....

    Aerosmith's is better.

  44. h.... m....

    epic song!!!

  45. m.... ....

    A Aerosmith song that deserves a cover!Not that romantic bullshit!
