Alice Cooper - Alice Cooper Goes To Hell lyrics



Tracks



01. Go To Hell

For criminal acts and violence on the stage
For being a brat
Refusing to act your age
For all of the decent citizens youve enraged
You can go to Hell

For gambling and drinking alcohol constantly
For making us doubt our parents authority
For choosing to be a living obscenity
You can go to Hell

Youre something that never should have happened
You even make your Grandma sick
Youd poison a blind mans dog and steal his cane
Youd gift wrap a leper
And mail him to your Aunt Jane
Youd even force-feed a diabetic a candy cane
You can go to Hell

Youre something that never should have happened
You even make your Grandma sick
For criminal acts and violence on the stage
For being a brat
Refusing to act your age
For all of the decent citizens youve enraged
You can go to Hell

02. You Gotta Dance

We like to throw our bodies around
We like to feel each other
Were all slaves when we hear that sound
Says dance
Says dance
Says ya gotta dance
Says dance

And there aint no two ways about it
Were all compelled to rise and thrust
When we all move together
Were hypnotized with savage lust
Says dance
Says dance
Says ya gotta dance
Says dance

Im so hot it makes me shiver
Makes me wet
Makes me slide
Its some spirit Im possessed by
I cant stop
We just got to dance
Dance
Dance

We gotta blow when we says blow
And we gotta shake and shimmy
We got the strings tied to our soul
Says dance
Says dance
Says we gotta dance
(And I dont mean tomorrow)
Says dance

03. I'm The Coolest

You know that Im the coolest
Thats ever come around
Youll notice things get hotter
Whenever Im in the town

I mean I gotta be the coolest
Who else could it be
Everybody knows whos really cool
Me

Lets face it Im the greatest
Im Mr. Number One
My hometown built a statue
To their favorite son

I mean a gotta be the greatest
Im just a ball of fun
I mean Im definitely the greatest
Im also the coolest

You cant leave a package like you
Sitting on no shelf
Let me tell you Im so cool sonny
Im gonna save a little for myself

Baby, come over here a minute
Who is the coolest
I mean how to I look
Yea

You cant leave a package like you
Sitting on no shelf
Let me tell you, Im so cool, sonny
Im gonna save a little for myself

You know the day I was born
There were these for dudes up on a hill
They said they saw this star
Hanging out over town

And the whole world seemed to stand still
It image the Sunday papers
I guess it provers for sure
I am the coolest
I am the greatest
I am the baddest
I am the smoothest
Im just the best
Sand dancer come on
Ah yea
Right

04. Didn't We Meet

Pardon me
But you see Ive seen that face before
I know those eyes
Unearthly wise

I feel it more and more
To look at you
Deja Vu
Chills me to the core

They say that you are the king of this whole damn thing
But that only confused me
I dont stand aghost of a chance with my host
And if frankly amused me
So lets drink a few
Heres looking at you
I swear
Didnt we meet in the night in my sleep somewhere
Didnt we meet in the night in my sleep somewhere

Gradually I could see
Things are getting clear
That ancient face
Satanic grace
This sudden rush of fear

They say that you are the king of this whole damn thing
Now they got me believing
They said I dont stand aghost of a chance with my host
So I better be leaving
So lets drnk a few
Heres looking at you
I swear
Didnt we meet in the night in my sllep somewhere

Here I am
The doors been slammed
Theyre gonna roast
Make me bleed
Till I plead
For you to let me die

They say that you are the king of this whole damn thing
Now they got me believing
They said I dont stand aghost of a chance with my host
So I better be leaving
So lets drnk a few
Heres looking at you
I swear
Didnt we meet in the night in my sleep somewhere

05. I Never Cry

If there is a tear on my face
It makes me shiver to the bones
It shakes me, Babe
Its just a heartache that got in my eye
And you know I never cry ,I never cry

Sometimes I drink more than I need
Until the TVs dead and gone
I may be lonely
But Im never alone
And the night may pass me bay
But Im never alone
And the night may pass me by
But Ill never cry

Take away, take away my eyes
Sometimes Id rather be blind
Break a heart, break a heart of stone
Open it up but dont you leave it alone
Cuz thats all I got to give you
Believe me Babe, it aint been used
My hearts a virgin, it never been tried

And you know Ill never cry
And you know Ill never cry
And you know Ill never cry
Never cry, Ill never cry

Break a heart, break a heart of stone
Open it up but dont you leave it alone
Cuz thats all I got to give you
Believe me Babe, it aint been used
My hearts a virgin, it never been tried
And you know Ill never cry

Never cry
Ill never cry

06. Give The Kid A Break

Dont know why Im down here
Must be something I said
Or some small I small imperfection
In my soul or in my head

Dont know why Im down here
Dont deserve to roast or bake
Im fighting off slanderous allegations
Why dont you give the kid a break

Dont you think maybe we could talk this over
Youre a reasonable man
Could we discuss my grave situation
Im a miserable man
And Im in the frying man
Give the kid a break

Give me one good reason why I should
All, right, all right, so I made a few mistakes
But listen for Heavens sake
Watch your language ,Kid
OK, OK, dont get hot
Dont question my judgement
He only reaped what he sowed
He cast his pearls before swine
And thats good enough for me
I dont want to talk it over

Even tho Im a resonable man
Sonny, come over here
Looks like youre in no position to bargain
Youre a convicted man
Youre right in the frying pan

Give the kid a break
Please, give me a kid of break
Give the kid a break
Nah, nah, I dont think so, man
Come on, you know I got what it takes
Cant you give me a break
Sure thing kid, when Hell freezes over
Give the kid a break
Hey, you guys, I thought you were on my side
No they dont
Give the kid a break
Yeah, well thanks a lot, pals
Listen boss, maybe we can make a little deal
Isnt there anything I can say
Of some kind of fine I can pay
Something

Dont know why Im down here
Must be something I said (Im sorry)
Or some small imperfection
In my soul or in my head
It might be some infection
It might be a small imperfection or a clear case of misdirection
It might be a small imperfection
In my soul or in my head
Give the kid a break

07. Guilty

Just tried to have fun
Raised Hell and then store
Im a dirt talking , beer drinking woman chasing ministers son
Slap on the make-up
And blast out the music
Wake up the neighborns with a roal like a teenage heavy metal elephant gun
If you call that guilty then thats what I am
Im gulty
Im gulty

Like driving too fast
Love going too far
It seems the laws on my ass everytime I stick it out of the door
If you call that guilty then thats what I am
Im gulty
Im gulty

Bad boy on a summer night
When the hearmakes me mean and I want to fight
With me pedal on the metal
And I do what I want to do
Bad girls make me feel all right
When its hot and tey start screaming in the night
Golly gee, its wrong be so guilty
Im guilty
Guilty
Im guilty

My conscience is on vacation in acute degeneration
Willpower has sunkto an all-time low
If you call that guilty well I guess I am
Im gulty
Im gulty

If you call this guilty then thats what I am
Im gulty, Im gulty, Im gulty, Im gulty
Im gulty, Im gulty, Im gulty, Im gulty
Well, Im gulty
Yeah, Im gulty
I dont care
Im gulty
I think I have been framed anyway
They said Im guilty
Im gulty
Theyre guilty and everyone is guilty

08. Wake Me Gently

I was scared to death
Afraid to close my eyes
And find that I was gone
Like every other one
Who left before the dawn
I vanished in the air
Am I still there

Wake me gently
If you can
Wake me gently
Just touch my hand
Wake me gently
Pull my sleeve
Cuz where Im at
Is where I wanna leave

And in my sleep
I look so lifeless on this bed
Laid out on satin sheets
This dreams a novel
That I dont dare complete
No happy ending read
I think the heros dead

Wake me gently
If you can
Wake me gently
Just touch my hand
Wake me gently
Pull my sleeve
Cuz where Im at
Is where I wanna leave
Me to my slumber

And I never come home
Please help me, Im frightened
Of whats going on
Whats going on
And if I cant wake up
Will I be all alone
A stranded orphan here

Or will I bump into
Some other wandering soul
And will talk to me
Somebody, somebody please rescue me

Wake me gently
If you can
Wake me gently
Just touch my hand
Wake me gently
Pull my sleeve
Cuz where Im at
Is where I wanna leave

I wanna leave
I wanna leave
I wanna wake up
I wanna leave
I dont wanna stay
I wanna leave
I wanna go
I wanna go home
I wanna go home
Just wake me up
I wanna go home
Wake me up, please
Cuz I wanna go home
Wake me
Wake me

09. Wish You Were Here

I sent you a postcard
Thought it would be funny
Would have sent a souvenir
But they took all my money
Its pretty warm down here but it aint sunny
And Im having a Hell of a time, my dear
Wish you were here

I tried to call you
I tried to call you
Long distance operators that only stall you
Besides the damn rates are so high
They just appall you
And Im having a Hell of time, my dear
Wish you were here
And Im having a Hell of time, my dear
Wish you were here

It started out on a nice vacation
Left the station right on time
Now its turned to near frustration
Im just a prisoner in time
Cant get a ticket to get me home, my dear
And Im having a Hell of time, my dear
Wish you were here
Having a Hell of time, my dear
Wish you were here
Having a Hell of time, my dear
Wish you were here

Seeing all the sights here
Im getting lonely
Id show you all the film I took if they would only let me go home
Dear, sincerely
Im having a Hell of time, my dear
Wish you were here
Im having a Hell of time, my dear
Wish you were here
Im having a Hell of time, my dear
Wish you were here
Im having a Hell of time, my dear
Wish you were here
Im having a Hell of time, my dear
Wish you were here
Im having a Hell of time, my dear
Wish you were here

10. I'm Always Chasing Rainbows

At the end of the rainbow theres happiness
And to find it how often Ive tried
But my life is a race
Just a wild goose chase

And my dreams have all been denied
Why have I always been a failure
What can the reason be
I wonder if the worlds to blame
I wonder if it could be me

Im always chasing rainbows, watching clouds drifting by
My schemes are just like all my dreams
Ending in the sky

Some fellows look and find the sunshine
I always look and find the rain
And some fellows make a winning sometime
And I never even make a gain
Im always chasing rainbows waiting to find the little bluebird in vain

11. Going Home

Im going home
There I am there in my bedrrom
Im safe and Im snug and shoring
And so glad to be there

Im going home
None of this ever happened
But God, I relly did it
Still nothing has changed

Im going home
Im going home
To my own room to all the mess
To all the dirty laundry
It looks so good I dont care
Im just so glad to be back home
Sweet home

I wonder if anyone missed me
Or have I been gone so long
They thought that Id died
How many said I wonder what happened to Alice
How many shrugged or laughed
How many cried
But I dont give a damn
Cuz Im going home

Im going home
To my own room to all the mess
To all the dirty laundry
It looks so good I dont care
Im just so glad to be back home
Im going home
Nothing can stop me now
