Well here, babe, look at you, in love with someone else
Turned out like all the others, leave me by myself, That's how it works I guess, and you like all the rest Guess I can handle it, if that's the way it is I'm in love with rock 'n' roll, it satisfy my soul That's how it has to be, I won't get mad I got rock 'n' roll, to save me from the cold And if that's all there is, it ain't so bad Rock 'n' roll! I never been a one to have no steady girl, I love the way I live, runnin' round the world I like to fool around, I love to tear 'em down And if I leave, you love to miss me when I'm gone I got rock 'n' roll, it satisfy my soul That's how it has to be, I won't get mad I got rock n' roll, to save me from the cold And if that's all there is, it ain't so bad Rock 'n' roll!... Play it to me! I can't imagine growin' old with anyone Marching to a different drum, I hear a different song I swear I love 'em all, I don't care if they're small I don't care if they're tall, I love them anyway I got rock n' roll, it satisfy my soul That's how it has to be, I won't get mad I got rock n' roll, to save me from the cold And if that's all there is, it ain't so bad I got rock n' roll, satisfies my soul If that's how it is, it ain't so bad I got rock m' roll, save me from the cold If that's all there is, it ain't so bad I got rock 'n' roll, it satisfy my soul That's how it has to be, I won't get mad I got rock 'n' roll, to save me from the cold And if that's all there is, it ain't so bad Rock N' Roll! Rock N' Roll! Rock N' Roll! Rock N' Roll! (...) 02. Eat The Rich
They say music is the food of love,
Let's see if you are hungry enough, Take a bite, take another, just like a good boy would, Get a sweet thing on the side, Home cooking, homicide, Side order, could be your daughter, Fingerlicking good Come on baby, eat the rich, Put the bite on the son of a bitch, Don't mess around, don't give me no switch, C'mon baby eat the rich C'mon baby eat the rich Sittin' here in a restaurant, Tell the waiter just what you want Is that the meat, you wanted to eat, How would you ever know? Hash browns an' bacon strips, I love the way that you lick your lips, No fooling, I can see you drooling, Feel the hunger grow [Chorus] Eat up, eat you, eat me, Eat two, get one free Shetland pony, extra pepperoni Just pick up the phone, Eat greek, or eat chinese, Eat salad, or scarf up grease You're on the shelf, maybe eat yourself, Come on, bite my bone [Chorus] 03. Blackheart
Two sides to all of us, with me you get 'em both,
My good side's wonderful, tho' I don't like to boast, Better not cross over 'cos the other side's a beast But don't expect the most if you can't take the least Blackheart, what you think of me, Blackheart, you want to believe, The dark side's all you want to see Blackheart, Blackheart What you wanna do, Blackheart You know it's always true Give back what I get from you, Blackheart I know the ones I win, I know the ones I lose I can't apologise, I know I paid my dues I can't be sorry, if I ain't always a saint Like to be a nice guy, but don't blame me if I ain't [Chorus] So that's the story, what you see is what you get, No doubt there's better men than me But I ain't met one yet No doubt the dancer calls the tune, So you can call on me I'm all I''ve got, and what I am is what I'll be Pay your money, take your choise, everybody's free, I know nobody's perfect and if they are it won't be me I'll be the bad guy in the movie of your life Just thank your lucky stars I didn't use a knife Blackheart, what you think of me, Blackheart, You want to believe The dark side is all you want to see Blackheart 04. Stone Deaf In The U.S.A.
Crossed the ocean in a silver bird,
Flying into another world, Flying down the Pacific coast, Flying up in a silver ghost Love to be back in Los Angeles L.A.X. what a sight to see, Stone fox women, crazy days, Table hopping at the Rainbow, babe, Stone Deaf in the U.S.A. Stone Deaf in the U.S.A. Coming back to New York City Just as crazy, ain't so pretty, People running like crazy fools Know you got to break the rules You can have yourself a real good time You can have yourself a life of crim Hit the Limelight, make my day Get me back to J.F.K. [Chorus] Been to Texas, can't get enough Gold Virginia, fell in love Detroit where the bad boys are See Chicago, make you a star Boston, Cleveland and Buffalo Another shake, another show Shake your ass, San Francisco Bay, I hate to leave, I want to stay [Chorus] 05. The Wolf
We never see the evil deed,
Nobody cares as long as they got what they need Don't look for help, under attack, Blind eyes are daggers, gonna stab you in the back The wolf is at your door, The wolf This ain't the time, to talk of love That word's forgotten when the fist is in the glove, Don't you rely, on passers by, They'd sooner look, the other way, and let you die The wolf is at your door, The wolf Don't ask for why, don't ask for help, Don't ask for anything, that you can't do yourself The wolf is here, he's at your side You better fight him, or it's you that's gonna die, The wolf is at your door, The wolf Owwwwwwwwwww!!! 06. Traitor
You stand accused of treason, you offer no good reason
You are a bloody liar, yours is the stake the fire, You say you are innocent, but you be caught and spent And now you pay the price, for avarice, your vice Intrigue your sole desire, you sold your wife, your child You sell your oldest friends, you sold your countrymen And yet we know your name, traitor, traitor And now your face is shown, and so your fate is known, We have discovered you, we have uncovered you, You say you were led astray, fall on your knees and pray, Pity is not for you, we'll make things hot for you, Our hearts we make to harden, for you there is no pardon, For you the spike awaits, upon the traitors gate, And crows will eat your eyes, traitor, traitor Delight we find in you, as we are binding you, You look in vain for friends, you only find revenge We give you blood and steel, we break you on the wheel The ones you hope to sell, will send you straight to hell, As we dismember you, we shall remember you, You are abomination, you that betray the nation You shall take long to die, traitor, traitor!!! 07. Dogs
Here we are in confusion
Could be it's all an illusion Who knows the times to come The years to face, the race to run We believe in graven image We believe in the fight to the finish We desire the almighty dollar The pound of flesh, the golden collar Lick the hand, we give our land to dogs Here we are in the years The blood, the sweat, the tears Have made us bondage slaves In a world that we never made, The politicians lick our bones, The tacticians, hearts of stone They turn us against our brothers Make us fight and kill each other Locked in lust we put our trust in dogs Here we are again, The dead still look the same Who cares they're soon forgotten Nobody loves corpse that's rotten Your fathers, mothers, daughters, sons Have been taken by the chosen ones But don't forget you made the choise, You made your mark, you raised your voice, They're all the same, you're all to blame You're dogs 08. All For You
Still can't believe it, can't stand to leave it
But I know the rules We were doomed babe, too much too soon babe Acting like fools Tried to fly and climbed too high We saw it all, we had to fall But I swear it's true, was all for you I swear it's true, was all for you Making love all the time, Never let the day go by, or a night Sweet music in the dark You always found the spark to light my light [Chorus] The only one babe, to ever break my heart Was you, such a shame, Though guys never cry, but that'll be the day I die, Speaking your name [Chorus] 09. Boogey Man
You know everybody's scared,
Everybody better beware Scared of spiders, scared of rats, Scared of being crossed by cats Scared of everything that moves, Scared of things with cloven hooves I ain't scared, live my life allright I ain't scared, to stand and fight I ain't scared, 'cos I believe Ain't scared, to wear my heart on my sleeve Ain't scared to show my hands But I'm scared of the boogeyman You can't boogie with the boogeyman, You can't boogie with the boogeyman, You can't boogie with the boogeyman, You can't boogie with the boogeyman, Hold out any way you can, But don't mess with the boogeyman He's hiding underneath your bed, He's hiding inside your head He's hiding behind your eye He be there until you die Ridin' shotgun in your new transam Slide over for the boogeyman [Chorus twice] |
