All right, all right
I hope you son of bitches see the light You again, you again I know you've got a mental age of ten Listen up, listen up I wouldn't swap you for a thousand bucks Come on, you're the one I think I'm going to switch your lazer on [Chorus] I've got the medicine you need I've got the power, I've got the speed I'll find out how to stop your clock We sure ain't talking Doctor Spock Hear me talking, Doctor Rock. Lay down, turn around Here come the sister gonna strip you down Shut up, breathe in Lets have the address of your next of kin Chin up, shoulders back You've got a body like a Marshall stack Keep still, take your pill Or I'm gonna make you really ill. [Chorus] Next please, next please Try to separate those cowardly knees X-ray, you've gotta pay The only chance you've ever got of getting away Here we are, what's the scar I don't like anything I've seen so far Pay me, pay me I ain't no doctor of philosophy [Chorus] 02. Stay Clean
I can tell, seen before,
I know the way, I know the law, Can't believe, can't obey, Can't agree with all the things I hear you say, Oh no, don't ask me why, I can't go on with all these filthy white lies, Stay Clean Don't you know, all the time, You got yours and you know that I've got mine, Grab a hold, don't let go, Don't let them rob you of the only thing you know, Oh no, no-one else, Got the right to make you sorry for yourself, Stay Clean So you see, the only proof, Of what you are is in the way you see the truth, Don't be scared, live to win, Although they're always gonna tell you it's a sin, In the end, you're on your own, And there is no-one that can stop you being alone, Stay Clean. 03. Shoot You In The Back
Western movies!
The riders ride, into the night, Into the West, to see who's gun's the best, They're all fools, to live by rules, The rider wearing black, He's gonna Shoot You In The Back The horseman turns, the wound that burns, The awful pain, the crimson rain, Got realise, before he dies, The rider wearing black, You know he's gonna Shoot You In The Back It's suicide, to live on pride, You claim you own, your skin your bone, Your own life, cuts you like a knife, The rider wearing black, He's gonna Shoot You In The Back In the Western movies! 04. Love Me Like A Reptile
Knew I had to bite you baby when I first set eyes on you,
That moment turned me on, I can't believe it's true, I like to watch your body sway, I got no choice, I'm gonna twist your tail, Love Me Like A Reptile, I'm gonna sink my fangs in you Thunder lizard, stony eye, you got me hypnotised, Hot tongue breaks in and out and I can't believe my eyes, And your soft white belly, next to mine, Scaly baby, see you shine, Love Me Like A Reptile, you're murder in disguise, Black mamba, murder in disguise Baby you're a rattlesnake, you know the way I feel, Feel you crawling up my back, you've got no love to steal, You know I've got my eyes on you, You're petrified, gonna stick like glue, Love Me Like A Reptile, shock you like an electric eel 05. Killers
The order is for murder,
And we've been there before, The men in black are coming back, To serve the killing floor, No pity, No surrender, We take no prisoners, We spare no brave defender, No mercy, No quarter here, The Killers, Will show you flame and sword, We are The Killers, Enough to make your backbone shake, The Killers, Enough to make your stupid faces quiver, And The Killers long to take your life, The sun beats down like thunder, We ride to meet the foe, The clash of the steal and leather, The only song we know, No pardon, No quarter, We own to no compassion, We glory in the slaughter, No mercy, We fetch your death, The Killers, We are the ones foretold, We are The Killers, We do not yearn for gold, We are The Killers, We know the wrath of battle, We are Killers, And The Killers will destroy your life, The devil rides to glory, We hasten by his side, A legendary story, Told by fireside, No mercy, Let all hope fade, We glory the slaughter, Our badge the Ace of Spades, No mercy, We bring the sword, The Killers, We murder you in battle, We are Killers, We ride you down like cattle, We are Killers, We fight our way to legend, We are Killers, And The Killers love to see you die, Killers, We kill you til you die, We are The Killers, We hold our banners high, We are The Killers, We hang you out to die, We are The Killers, And all we bring death to life 06. Metropolis
Metropolis, the worlds collide,
Ain't nobody could be on your side, I don't care,I don't care Metropolis is something new, Ain't nobody got their eye on you, I don't care,I don't care Metropolis, the worlds collide, Ain't nobody on the other side, I don't care, I'm not there. 07. Love For Sale
Looking good, stepping out, looking for romance
Crazy arms, crazy legs, save me the last dance Hold me tight, make me warm, give me shelter Treat me right, in from the storm, helter skelter You know the way, the game is tough Need some motivation, to help you get it up Cause it's only, love for sale, Heart of gold and hard as nails I can't believe it's legal, To send it through the mail Only love for sale Call me up, call me back, call me what you want to Shoot your shot, shoot the moon, nothing that you can't do All for me, one for all, shoulder to shoulder Here and gone, sure like to ball, rock n' roller You know the way, stuff goes around, You need a half nelson, to help you get it down Rip it up, rip it out, Shake your money maker Feels so good, in and out, real earth shaker Get up close, stroke your bones, get a grip babe Take a trip, take me home, feel the earth shift babe You know the way, so get it right You don't need an airplane, to get you through the night 09. No Class
Shut up, you talk too loud,
You don't fit in with the crowd, I can't believe you exist, I've crossed you right off my list, Too much, too soon, You're way out of tune, No Class, No Class Way out, you're way out of line, No buddy I can't spare a dime, Fade out, baby that's right, No bark and even less bite, Your perfect smile, Betrays your lack of style, No Class, No Class Ah No Class, No Class Too late, you can't catch up now, You face the wrong way anyhow, I know you ain't got the brain, To come in out of the rain, Too bad, no magic, I'm afraid you're merely tragic, No Class, baby No Class No Class, ah No Class 10. I Got Mine
Here's the story, there's only me
No other place for you to be It's only you babe, it's only you I can't believe the things you do Right now, right here Ain't gonna let you disappear Right now, this time, you got yours and I got mine Come on baby, go back to start I got your picture in my heart It's only me babe, it's only me Refuse, disposal, refugee Rock'n'Roll you just might be my new career Rock'n'Roll you just might be my new career Come on baby, come on with me You got me fallin out my tree Be my lover, the number one Be my friend but don't be gone Nobody gonna interfere 11. In The Name Of Tragedy
Were you ever lost,
were you ever young, were you ever safe little brother, Do you see the sense of the evidence, are you still part of the struggle, Did you bang your head, did you go to bed, does it still feel pretty funky, Lay back and dream, in the death machine, pity you still think like a monkey, Bring it up, bring it down til you hit the ground, Get a rude attitude, turn the world around, Shall we see, shall we disagree, Sing it all In The Name of Tragedy, Did you ever lie, ever wonder why, nobody believed you honey, What a pretty smile, drive the people wild, wonder who ran off with the money, Do you ever change, is it going to rain, will it bring you pennies from heaven, Do you know the score, are you waiting for, anxious for the new Armageddon, Live it up, live it down til we hit the ground, Cop a rude attitude from the world around, Shall we see, shall we disagree, Sing it all In The Name of Tragedy, Marbles in your mouth, what's it all about, do you know the name of the winner, If I was to go, would you let it show, life is not a TV dinner, If you dream of me, will you ever see, do you want a piece of the action, If I wasn't sure, would you do it more, help me to achieve an erection, Get it up, get it down til you hit the ground, Get a rude attitude, turn the world around, Shall we see, shall we disagree, All In The Name of Tragedy, Sing it loud, sing it out, make the people shout, Get it all, get it on, get it sorted out, Be a seer, be sincere, can you really see, All In The Name of Tragedy 12. Dancing On Your Grave
I know you thought you're a real operator
But I don't know why All you had was a bankroll, babe And a glint in your eye I'm a high-steppin' like an indian brave I'm the one Dancing on your grave You know I'm a killer babe Here's late news for you you couldn't buy me with a million, babe I'm too good for you I'm know you think I'm real rough trade Now I'm the one Dancing on your grave One time you was a real high-stepper On the high trapeze But you know you ran out of money Wound up on your knees I'm the one you never made Now I'm the one Dancing on your grave 13. R.A.M.O.N.E.S.
New York City, N.Y.C.,
Pretty mean when it wants to be, Black leather,knee-hole pants, Can't play no high school dance, Fuzz tone,hear 'em go, Hear 'em on the radio, Misfits, twilight zone, R-A-M-O-N-E-S [2],RAMONES, Bad boy rock,bad boy roll, Gabba gabba,see them go, C,Jay now hit the gas, Hear Marky kick some ass, Go Johnny,go, go, go Tommy o-way-o, [Repeat] Bad boys then, bad boys now, Good buddies,mau [3],keep it up, Rock'n'roll,good music save your soul, Dee Dee, he left home, Joey call me the phone. [Repeat] 14. Sacrifice
Why do they not believe
I have not lied, even for this, Now no-one can conceive The lie becomes the loving kiss, But I would not, Fall in love, Like this. The woman stiches the shrouds, The children murder all the world, If only you believe, Then only you will die, How can you not, See the stars, In your eyes. Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice, Sacrifice, pay the price, blood like ice, sacrifice. The pain is on you now, Do not consider flight for gain, In you the poison breeds, Crawling with the mark of Cain, And no-one shall, Set you free, Again. Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice, Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice. 15. Just 'Cos You Got The Power
You might be a financial wizard,
With a sack of loot, All I see is a slimy lizard, With an expensive suit, Go on and run your corporation, Go and kiss some ass, You might buy half of the nation, But you can't buy class You bastards think it's funny, Lyin' and thieving all your life, Think all there is is money, Got your future strapped up tight, Just 'Cos You Got The Power, That don't mean you got the right You can take my fingers babe, You can take my eyes, You can take my past and future, It won't make you wise, You can have me thrown in jail, You can steal my booze, You can even read my mail, Step on my blue suede shoes, You bastards must be clever, Got it mapped out in black and whit, But don't forget you'll never, Get a dog to walk upright, Just 'Cos You Got The Power, That don't mean you got the right Go on out make another deal, Feed your big fat face, Go on out and cop a feel, Get on somebody's case, You surely would be satisfied, If you could have it all, But time ain't on your side, You're going to the wall You think that life's all dollars, Greed and lust and spite, But I wasn't born to follow, Like to get my sleep at night, Just 'Cos You Got The Power, That don't mean you got the right 16. (We Are) The Road Crew
Another town, another place
Another girl, another face Another truck, another race Eatin' junk, feelin' bad Another night, goin' mad My Woman leavin' I'm so sad But I just love the life I lead Another beer is what I need Another gig, my ears bleed We are the road crew Another town, left behind Another drink, completely blind Another hotel I can't find Another backstage pass for you Another tube of superglue Another border to get through Drivin' like a maniac Drivin' way to hell and back Another room a case to pack We are the road crew Another hotel, we can burn Another screw, another turn Another Europe map to learn Another truckstop on the way Another game that I can play Another word I learned to say Another bloody customs post Another fucking foreign coast Another set of scars to boast We are the road crew 17. Going To Brazil
Here we go again, on a 747,
Looking at the clouds from the other side of heaven, Smoking & drinking, never gonna stop, Reading magazines, stop me looking at the clock, Wanna watch the movie, can't sit still, Flying down to Rio, going to Brazil, Watching all the roadcrew attacking little girls, Joined the mile high club, goin' round the world, All the booze is free, airline going broke, Here come the lady with another jack and coke, Wanna watch the movie, can't sit still, Flying down to Rio, going to Brazil, Steve, Clem, Hobbsy, John, Crazy Dil & Pappy, Had to travel second class, they ain't too fucking happy, Elevator music, butter in my ears, Think we're gonna die, just the pilot changing gear, Wanna watch the movie, can't sit still, Flying down to Rio, going to Brazil. 18. Killed By Death
If you squeeze my lizard
I'll put my snake on you I'm a romantic adventure And I'm a reptile too [CHORUS:] But it don't make no difference 'cos I ain't gonna be, easy, easy the only time I'm easy's when I'm Killed by death [*4] I'm a lone wolf ligger But I ain't no pretty boy I'm a backbone shiver and I'm a bundle of joy [CHORUS] But it don't make no difference 'cos I ain't gonna be, easy, easy the only time I'm easy's when I'm Killed by death 19. Iron Fist
Dark night nothing to see
Invisible hand in front of me Scared to death there's someone near Scared to move but you can't stay here You know me, evil eye You know me, prepare to die You know me, the snakebite kiss Devil's grip, the Iron Fist Flying horse don't make a sound Flying hooves don't touch the ground Walk in circle lose you track Can't go on but you can't go back You know me etc. Moon eclipse and you know why Ghost rider in the sky Beast of evil devil's hound Tooth and claw they pull you down You know me etc. 20. Whorehouse Blues
Well we came up from the gutter,
The wrong side of the tracks, Yeah, we came up from the gutter, Wrong side of the tracks, You know the music brought us out, babe, And we ain't never been back, Cause we went city to city, All around the world, Yes, we went city to city, All around the world, You know it never looked like enough, honey, Even after thirty years, Cause we come blazing like a shooting star, We light you up real good, Yes, we come blazing like a shooting star, We light you up real good, We gonna hit you like a flash of lightning, Just like a bad boy would, You know the only thing that's missing, Is a little mouth harp blues, You know the only thing that's missing, Is a little mouth harp blues, And you know life's full of suprises, You know we do that to, You know we ain't too good looking, But we are satisfied, No, we ain't never been good looking, But we are satisfied, We shoulda opened up a little Whorehouse, honey, Get a little booty on the side 21. Bomber
Ain't a hope in hell,
Nothing's gonna bring us down, The way we fly, Five miles off the ground, Because we shoot to kill, And you know we always will, It's a Bomber Scream a thousand miles, Feel the black death rising moan, Firestorm coming closer, Napalm to the bone, Because, you know we do it right, A mission every night, It's a Bomber No night fighter, Gonna stop us getting through, The sirens make you shiver, You bet my aim is true, Because, you know we aim to please, Bring you to your knees, It's a Bomber 22. Ace Of Spades
If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man,
You win some, lose some, all the same to me, The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say, I don't share your greed, the only card I need is The Ace Of Spades Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil, Going with the flow, it's all the same to me, Seven or Eleven, snake eyes watching you, Double up or quit, double stake or split, The Ace Of Spades You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools, But that's the way I like it baby, I don't wanna live for ever, And don't forget the joker! Pushing up the ante, I know you've got to see me, Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again, I see it in your eyes, take one look and die, The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be, The Ace Of Spades 23. Overkill
Only way to feel the noise is when it's good and loud,
So good you can't believe it's screaming with the crowd, Don't sweat it, get it back to you, Overkill, Overkill On your feet you feel the beat, it goes straight to your spine, Shake your head you must be dead if it don't make you fly, Don't sweat it, get it back to you, Overkill, Overkill Know your body's made to move, you feel it in your guts Rock 'n' roll ain't worth the name if it don't make you strut, Don't sweat it, get it back to you, Overkill, Overkill |
