A clip of what appears to be the chorus to "Survivalism" can be heard by calling the telephone number 1-310-295-1040, which was found on Valentine's Day 2007 by joining discolored numerals on the back of a tour t-shirt.

Lyrics

I should have listened to her So hard to keep control We kept on eating but Our bloated belly's still not full She gave us all she had but We went and took some more Can't seem to shut her legs Our mother nature is a whore

(chorus:) I got my propaganda I got revisionism I got my violence And I give ultra-realism I'm a part of this great nation I got my fist I got my brain I got survivalism

Hypnotic sound of sirens Echoing through the street The cocking of the rifles The marching of the feet You see your world on fire Don't try to act surprised We did just what you told us Lost our faith along the way and found ourselves believing your lies

(chorus)

(cut-up speech)

All bruised and broken, bleeding She asked to take my hand I turned, just keep on walking But you'd do the same thing under circumstance I'm sure you understand

(chorus)

(guitar solo)
