Saigon Kick
Saigon Kick is an American rock band from Miami, Florida, that formed in 1988.
History
Formation and mainstream success (1988–1992)
Saigon Kick was formed by lead vocalist Matt Kramer and guitarist Jason Bieler along with bassist Tom Defile and drummer Phil Varone. They gained a following on the local club scene and generated enough of a buzz to be signed to Third Stone records in 1990 and release their first album in 1991. They toured at length but the album only made a marginal national showing.
They went immediately back into the studio to record their second album, The Lizard which was released in 1992. The album spawned the band's biggest hit single, "Love Is on the Way", which garnered initial airplay on South Florida's WSHE. Just before touring for the album commenced, bassist Tom DeFile was fired. He was replaced by ex-Cold Sweat bassist Chris McLernon. They toured from summer 1992 to spring 1993, enjoying gold status sales for The Lizard.
Later years and breakup (1993–2000)

Peppermint Tribe
by: Saigon KickYes, I am from the Peppermint Tribe
Where people come and then they die
To hail me, oh, hail me
With tomahawks of candy cane
We split their heads and eat the brains
Hail me, oh, hail me
All the while I see your face is turning
Hold your fire while the clock keeps ticking
Talk of Jesus, still your pain won't end
Ask forgiveness though your mind is lying
Slippin' through, time's slippin' through your hands
With guns of chalk we write our names
We wrote the book, we author pain
Hail me, oh, hail me
The TV speak in murderous rhymes
The clues we leave and hope you'll find
Hail me, oh, hail me
All the while I see your face is turning
Hold your fire while the clock keeps ticking
Talk of Jesus, still your pain won't end
Ask forgiveness though your mind is lying
Slippin' through, time's slippin' through your hands
Hold your fire while the clock keeps ticking
Talk of Jesus, still your pain won't end
Ask forgiveness though your mind is lying
Slippin' through your, slippin' through your hands
Yes, we come from the Peppermint Tribe
Where losers come to fix their mind
To hail me, oh, hail me
With giant walls are sugar made
We close you in and build the grave
Hail me, oh, hail me
And all the while I see your face is turning
Hold your fire while the clock keeps ticking
Talk of Jesus, still your pain won't end
Ask forgiveness though your mind is lying
Slippin' through your, slippin' through your
The witches dancing inside their caves
The people all go insane from the Peppermint Tribe
