| 1. The Alter
The stained glass lights the way
On their kness the congregation prays
Collection plate is passed your way
Jesus looks down from sky
A tear fills his eyes
In the fires of hell you're all gonna pay
In the rectory basement of sin
A meeting read to begin
Something in the eyes |

Doctor Butcher - это старейший проект двух мастеров прогрессивного хеви метала Джона Оливы и Криса Кеффри из Savatage. Сейчас оба музыканта занимаются сольной деятельностью, и Саватаж пока что заморожен. Данный альбом был впервые выпущен в 1994 году, и в 2005 стараниями Black Lotus Records он был ремастирован и выпущен в виде двойного диджипака, содержащего пять бонусных песен, написанных ещё до создания проекта, то есть где-то в годах восьмидесятых – и такое качество они и имеют. Музыкальный материал пластинки «Doctor Butcher» представляет собой более гитарную версию Саватажа. Клавиши есть, но их очень мало, особой красотой они не обладают, тут больший интерес представляют драйвовые гитарные риффы и сильный вокал Оливы. И вообще - музыка достаточно жестка и агрессивна, чем-то похожа на Metal Church, в особенности своей «американизированностью». Материал в целом имеет отличное качество записи, грамотные аранжировки и очень цепляющие мелодии. В отсутствии техничности музыкантов не упрекнёшь – прогрессив хеви метал в руках Оливы и Кеффри всегда отмечен знаком особого качества. Из ярких хитов выделю открывающий мощный номер «The Altar», прямо-таки брызжущую злостью «Don't Talk To Me», мистическую «Season Of The Witch» и скоростной номер «Help! Police?». Не обошлось и без тоскливой баллады в лице «Bridges». В общем, материал достаточно солидный. Поклонники Savatage, Circle II Circle и Jon Oliva`s Pain должны обязательно приобрести этот продукт. |

Holy father, you're telling me lies
Searching - Mother mary finds the tunnel of love
Touching - In the name of the lord above
[Chorus:]
Step Up - Up to the Altar
Kneel Down - Down on your knees and pray
Step Up - Up to the Altar
A priest - Is playing his organ again
Sacrificial bishop cracks the sky
Upon the altar a virgin lies
No hail mary gonna save you now
Looking - For choir girls and boys
Hoping - He just want a brand new toy
[Chorus]
[Solo]
[Chorus]
2. Don't Talk To Me
People try to tell me, they're all telling lies
I can see right thru their evil lies
Alway try to make me somethin' that I'm not
Preach! Preach! Preach! Will it ever stop
[Chorus:]
Don't Talk to Me - I dont want to talk about it
Don't Talk to Me - Leave me alone
Don't Talk to Me - I'm sick and sick and tired of your talk
Talk - Talk - Talk - FUCK YOU!!
Parents always fighting whenever I'm at home
I just lock myself inside my room
Put on something heavy to get me thru the day
I sometime wish that I could go away
[Chorus]
[Solo]
Don't you ever push me, don't push me too far
I don't care who the hell you are
[Chorus]
3. Season Of The Wiche
Listen to me I'll tell you something that you may not want to hear
I know about those games you plan, I know about your fear
Live alone, better lock your door, gonna come for you, what you wanna do
I know these things that noone knows
[Chorus:]
Burn in the night, hands held to the sky
Breathing like a dog in the season of the witch
Burn in the night, hands held to the sky
Breathing like a dog in the season of the witch
I just know your souls too cold to love
I search for ways to see inside your world
Live alone, better lock your door, gonna come for you, what you wanna do
I don't give a shit anymore
[Chorus]
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Lost inside your sorrow
Lost inside your sorrow
4. Reach Out And Torment Someone
Who's that calling on the phone
Leave me the mother fuck alone
I just need to get some sleep
I've been up for half a week
Watching night turn into day
Spending all my hard earned pay
On bitches, bills, this and that
Leave the phone where it's at
[Chorus:]
Reach out and torment someone
Reach out and show 'em you don't care
Reach out and torment someone
Reach out and show 'em you don't care
Credit cards are overdrawn
When I call that bitch she's never home
But when I'm swimming in the cash
She's always there to give me ass
Bought her clothes, fed her face
That's the price for getting laid
When I think I'm over it all
That's when I get that fucking call
[Chorus]
[Calls]
[Chorus x2]
5. Juice
All fears kept inside the heart
But none can quite compare
He's pleading to god above
Don't send me to the chair
6. The Chair
Face your dying day, final judgement is passed today
In your cell, cold sweats, no remorse no regrets
For the crimes he'd commit, violent passions reliving it
Every breath that was heard was the victim's final word
Another life just passing by, what's on the mind when the convict fries
Trapped in your cell, but it's really a living hell
Final hour it begins, soul crawling under your skin
There's a priest at the door, who could ask for any more
Speaks your last - Last rights, now you're gone just like the light
There's nowhere for you to run
Living under the gun, praying to god
[Chorus:]
Another life just passing by
What's on the mind when the convict fries ?
Such a lovely way to die
Christ comes to call, now's your time to take your fall
Start your walk to the chair, hell awaits - You soon be there
Never mind what you see, it's just an offering to thee
Tape your eyes - No sight, now your gone just like the light
There's nowhere for you to run
Living under the gun
[Chorus]
I reflect on the chairs of my past
How this one it will be the last
Father, son, holy ghost
Condemn me to hell, where I will roast
Church pew, school desk, waiting rooms, I confess
Complications that arise from attempted suicide
So I start a klling spree that led me to this destiny
Noone's left who really cares as I fry in the chair
7. Innocent Victum
I'm an innocent victim, I live in confusion
Everything that I see, I see thru misery
Have a soul, I've lost control, I need a fix of anything
To ease my pain, keep me sane, help escape reality
I'm losing my way
I search for solutions, Instead I find dillusions
You see there are excuses for these self-inflicted abuses
Rehab failed and so did jail, this twisted fucked up life I lead
Chose no hope, who can cope, with this cruel insanity
I'm losing my way
I'm losing my way
Why doesn' anymore listen
Souls cries out in torment
Out on the streets I'm looking
For anything I can get
Why doesn't anymore help me
Doesn't anymore care
It's easy for me to see now
Life just ain't fair
[Solo]
I'm losing my way
I'm losing my way
8. The Picture's Wild
Sacrifice your life, working your way to the top of the ladder
Just a slave to the worlds decay
No way out, need a stiff drink just to get thru the day
You can say
[Chorus:]
The Picture's Wild
The Picture's Wild
The Picture's Wild
The Picture's Wild, Wild, Wild
Everything's a rip off, everyone's uptight
Fucked up generation still can't get it right
Every G-Damn move you make is on file
You can say
[Chorus]
Terrorism, communism, on the streets every day
You can see it on the evening news, it's the way of the world
Can't take it, never will, it's life as we know it
You can say
[Chorus]
9. Lost In The Dark
Life of desparation that's his way
Searching for a light to shine today, but I know that I won't
help me jesus can't you feel my pain
I'm so tired, twisted and insane, taken a look in my eyes
There's no living! Forgiving! God help me please!
[Chorus:]
I'm lost in the dark
I don't know which way I'm facing
I reach to feel my way, a life caught in the maze
[Solo]
There's no living! Forgiving! God help me please!
[Chorus x2]
Institution, no solution, this is destiny I know
Living, living, scared of dying, wondering where it is i'll go
Oh no, no no
Oh no, no no
Lost in the dark
Lost in the dark
10. I Hate, You Hate, We All Hate
I hate, you hate - we all hate!!
Hate on the streets, school death increase
On the rise, crack suicide
Pre-teens with guns, perverted nuns, this life I hate it all!!
Blood in the east, western disease
Honest charittes, rest in peace
Politician scum, fucking everyone, this life I hate it all!!
I hate, you hate - we all hate
Fathers teaching sons, hate the different ones
religious lies, brainwashed minds
That is the way kids are brought up today, this life - I hate it all!!
I hate you hate - we all hate!
Forgive me if I seem bitter
Forgive me if I seem cold
I've taken all that I'm gonna take
So leave me, leave me alone
[Solo]
I hate, you hate - we all hate!!
Girlfriend's a slut, I've had enough
Two faced friends appear again
That's their mistakes, maybe one day
Give me a gun, shot everyone
Pay back's a bitch, dirty tricks
End up in jail with no bail
On death row, you never know, this life - I hate it all!!
I hate, you hate
I hate, you hate
I hate, you hate
I hate, you hate - we all hate!!
11. All For One, None For All
It's every man for himself now
That's the way it's gonna be
A nation armed and ready
Civil war that's sure to be
In a fitire as things just keep going on
Young people dies in the future for children
[Chorus:]
All for one, none for all
All for one, none for all - No none at all
It's a world of confusion
Got to look out for number one
If you don'tnoone else will
Leaves you under the gun
Alone you stand, a shadow by your side
On your face I can see the misfortune
[Chorus]
