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

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
Chorus:
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
Chorus
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

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,

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

We are looking in on you now
What do you think you can do now
It's very small from way out here
The last thing you will feel is fear

Give you a chance to do the right thing
Give you a chance to do the bright thing
Now our sense is all disgusted
Where you're from you can't be trusted

Where I come from no-one smiles
Every inch exists in miles
Still it's cool relaxed and calm
Sitting here on the funny farm

World in prison screams in pain
There are no leaders you can blame
Human greed destroys your sphere
And there's no room for you out here

You're on your own now
You're on your own now
You're on your own now
You're on your own now

Do you remember?
Do you remember?
Do you remember?

They locked me up, put me away,
Said "You're gonna get out in forever and a day"
I didn't know what was going on,
All I was doing was looking for fun,
Forgot the reason, that's what I'm told,
But you've gotta get it in before you get old,
They thought they had me, had me for keeps,
But they don't know this boy never sleeps,
I'm back on the streets again,
I'm back on my feet again,
I'm On Parole, On Parole
I like laugh, I like a joke,
It's not my fault if my sense of humour broke,
I tried to tell them I was sick,
They said they think it was some kind of a trick,
Alright, I would have done good,
If they had listened to me like they should,
I wouldn't have this loaded gun,
Looking for a citizen to kill just for fun,
It's good to be free again,
It's good to be me again,
I'm On Parole, On Parole



Stop me now before I kill myself,
Stop me before I kill somebody else!

You'd better watch out, you never know,
Who's going to be the next to go,
Night my friend, but it ain't yours,
Fixes the odds, evens the scores,
Just turn around, I won't go wrong,
When he hits the ground I'll be long gone,
They won't suspect me, no not a soul,
'Cos I'm a good boy I'm On Parole,
I'm raising my sights again,
I'm claiming my rights again,
I'm On Parole, On Parole

Stop me now before I kill myself,
Stop me now, or get somebody else

Hey, fellows have you heard the news
The women in this town are being misused
Seen it all in a dream last night
You'll be leaving this town 'cause you don't feel right

I'm leaving, leaving here
I'm leaving, leaving here

Hey fellows, better change your ways
Or they'll be leaving this town in a matter of days
They all say and everything's so true
We fellows run around with someone new

I'm leaving, leaving here
I'm leaving, leaving here

Yeah, one by one, yeah, two by two
Yeah, three by three, yeah, four by four

[Incomprehensible]
[Incomprehensible]
One day, one day and it won't be long
And all them fine chicks will be gone

I'm leaving, leaving here
I'm leaving, leaving here

Yeah, two by two, yeah, four by four
Oh yeah, oh yeah yeah yeah
I'm leaving here
[Incomprehensible]

Nobody knows, I know nobody cares
What goes on in here
We have this door, nobody gets in
Until I'm really sure

Don't creep up behind me
You know where to find me, I'm always around
Turns out if you need us
Before you lead us astray

Don't care who we meet
We're orphans here on Easy Street and we feel real mean
Cruising on speed
We've got more than we'll ever need, ain't life sweet?

We won't turn your pay down
City kids don't lay down, we don't call so cheap
Better get some more of that
City kids, we don't give that to you, oh no

Bombs go off the night
Searing heat, blinding light, you like it fine
Park the car and run
Dance all night, it was for fun, we're nasty

Why do we do it?
No one can get through it
We know where to run

You hear what we're saying
Time that you were praying
'Cos city kids, time won't be long
Won't be long, no, it won't be long

I make love to mountain lions,
Sleep on red-hot branding irons,
When I walk the roadway shakes,
Bed's a mess of rattlesnakes,
Voodoo child, black cat bone,
Scratch your back,hear you moan,
I get up, you go down,
Tall building, single bound,
War and peace and love,
Say it if you dare,
Iron fist,velvet glove,
I'm so bad, baby I don't care,
Black-hearted to the bone,
Older than The Rolling Stones,
Been to heaven, been to hell,
Bought the farm, and I won't sell,
Give and take, rise and fall,
Rise up and take it all,
Secret love, I won't tell,
Knock you up and ring your bell,
Kiss the whip, eat the gun,
Tell me it ain't fair,
Midnight victim, hit and run,
I'm so bad, baby I don't care,
I make the blind to see,
Shoot 'em full of R and B,
I make the lame to walk,
Come round and pop your cork,
Wham, bam,thank you ma'am,
Thought I heard the back door slam,
Overkill, walk the line,
Kill the lights, It's lampshade time,
On the road,on the lam,
People running scared,
I'm everything they say
I'm,I'm so bad, baby I don't care.

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.

Lie back and dream of me,
Red death to set you free,
We turn the screws to make you die,
Soft flesh and razor blades, golgotha, ace of spades,
Steel needles kiss your pretty eyes,
All mine, all mine, black night, moonshine,
All mine, all mine, nightmare, the dreamtime,


Black terror stalks the night, claws to clutch and fangs to bite,
A dark and faceless crawling fear,
Despair, you can't resist, and now the lizard's kiss,
The reptile hisses in your ear,
All mine, all mine, black night, moonshine,
All mine, all mine, nightmare, the dreamtime,


Dead voices speak through me,
Of all the things they see,
The prince of wounds, the lord of flies,
Evil within ourselves, we need nobody else,
We tell ourselves the best of lies,
All mine, all mine, black night, moonshine,
All mine, all mine, nightmare, the dreamtime.

Love me forever, or not at all,
End of our tether, backs to the wall,
Give me your hand, don't you ever ask why,
Promise me nothing, live 'til we die,


Chorus
Everything changes, it all stays the same,
Everyone guilty, no one to blame,
Every way out, brings you back to the start,
Everyone dies to break somebody's heart,


We are the system, we are the law,
We are corruption, worm in the core,
One of another, laugh 'til you cry,
Faith unto death or a knife in the eye,


(Repeat Chorus)

Love me or leave me, tell me no lies,
Ask me no questions, send me no spies,
You know love's a thief, steal your heart in the night,
Slip through your fingers, you best hold on tight.

(Repeat Chorus)

I wanna grow my hair, live in Bel Air,
Lose my head, keep a live snake in my bed,
I wanna backstage pass, drink Bon Jovi's booze for free,
I wanna be a star & buy a hundred guitars,
Eat everything I can bite,
I wanna feel a little danger, feel a little stranger,
Angel City tonight,


I got a buncha boys, we make a lot of noise,
Little bit crazy, playing with chemical toys,
We're such bad ass dudes,
Almost can't stand it myself,
I wanna get the crabs in my elegant rags,
Make my mom & daddy uptight,
I wanna be an intellectual, heterosexual,
Angel City tonight,


I'm gonna live in L.A. drinkin' all day,
Lay by the pool & let the record company pay,
Talking to the devil on the bathphone all of the time,
I'm gonna kick ass, I'm gonna spit broken glass,
I'm gonna shoot out all of your lights,
I wanna eat dirt, I'm gonna eat my own shirt,
Angel City tonight,


Angel City, Angel City, the way I'm used is a shame and a pity,
Angel City, Angel City, rock 'n' roll alright,
Angel City, Angel City, the women here ain't got no pity,
Angel City, Angel City, shape up and fly right.

Listen up babe, you're no fool,
I wish I walked you home from school,
Dream lover, head to tail, coulda put a lot of boys in jail,
Tell you what, you're red hot,
Let's go do it in the parking lot,
I mean every word I say, I wish you'd stay,
Stay mean, stay clean,
Don't ever ask me where I've been,


Shine a light on me, come on babe, set me free,
Don't go 'way please please stay,
Roll over and make my day, (repeat)


You're so bad honey, you're so tough,
Skin so smooth, but your tongue's so rough,
Crazy mama, turn me down, watch out cuz I'll be 'round,


You're so bad, I'm so glad, best woman that I ever had,
I mean every single word and I hope you heard,
I'm the one, to turn you on,
Stick with me, and you can't go wrong,


Shine a light on me, come on babe, set me free,
Don't go 'way please please stay,
Roll over and make my day, (repeat)


Be the one you want to be,
Don't go anyplace far from me,
Touch me there, show you care,
Can't scare you if you can't be scared,
Know you, know it's true,
Be alright if you know me too,
I mean every word I hear and I hope it's clear,
Cuz if you go, hope you know,
You ain't gonna see the sun no more,


Shine a light on me, come on babe, set me free
Don't go away please please stay,
Roll over and make my day.

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,


Chorus
Misfits, twilight zone,
R-A-M-O-N-E-S, R-A-M-O-N-E-S
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, go Tommy o-way-o,


(Chorus)

Bad boys then, bad boys now,
Good buddies, mau, mau, mau,
Keep it up, rock 'n' roll, good music save your soul,
Taylor Taylor, he left home,
Joey call me on the phone.


(Chorus)

Pack my bags and leave today,
You read this I'll be far away,
Ain't gonna give ya no moon in June,
Never see you it'll be too soon,
Chorus
One eyed Jack, gotta watch my back,
See you 'round, guess I better,
Shut you down, shut you down,
Shut you down,
Steal your thunder, turn you round,


Listen up 'cos I'm telling you,
Magic moments were way too few,
Like to stay, but you got too weird,
Don't look right since you grew that beard,
(Chorus)


Tell you babe, what I'm gonna do,
Leave this town and I'll leave you too,
Don't wanna see your face no more,
Don't come 'round knocking at my door.
(Chorus)

Sixteen years old
To fight for a land fit for heroes
when I went to the war
and a gun in my hand
God on my side

Chasing my days down to zero
And I marched, and I fought
And I bled, and I died
But I knew at the time
And I never did get any older
That a year in the line
Was a long enough life for a soldier

We all volunteered
And we wrote down our names
And we added two years to our ages
Eager for life
And ahead of the game
Ready for history's pages

And we brawled, and we fought
And we hoped to be stuped
Ten thousand shoulder to shoulder
At thirst for the Hun
And that's what you are when you're soldiers
We were food for the gun

As he sank to his knees
I heard my friend cry
Coughing blood as he screemed for his mother
And I fell by his side
Clinging like kids to each other

And I wept as his body grew colder
And that's how we died
And I lay in the mud, and the guts and the blood
Though it wasn't my fault, and I wasn't to blame
And I called for my mother, but she never came
The day not half over, and ten thousand slain
And now there's nobody remembers our names
And that's how it is
For each soldier

Sunshine and wrong side of another day
Sky high and six thousand miles away
Don't know how long I've been awake
Wound up in an amazing state

Can't get enough and you know it's righteous stuff
Goes up like prices at Christmas
Motorhead, remember me, now Motorhead, alright

Brain dead, total amnesia, get some mental anesthesia
Don't move, I'll shut the door and kill the lights
I guess I'll see you all on the ice

All good, clean fun, have another stick of gum
Man, you look better already
Motorhead, remember me, now, Motorhead, alright

Fourth day, five day marathon
We're moving like a parallelogram
Don't move, I'll shut the door and kill the lights
If I can't be wrong I must be right

I should be tired and all I am is wired
Ain't felt this good for an hour
Motorhead, remember me, now, Motorhead, alright

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Motorhead, remember me, now, Motorhead
It's only you now , Motorhead
Only you, Motorhead
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm

They locked me up, put me away,

Stop me now before I kill myself,
Stop me before I kill somebody else!

Who's going to be the next to go,

Stop me now before I kill myself,
Stop me now, or get somebody else

Larger than life, sharper than a knife,
Ever ready for the time,
Slick and smooth I'm bound to improve your mood,
And make you feel fine,
Reach for me, I'm ready and how
I'm really starting to buzz,
Your feeling comes, I'm starting to hum,
I can do it like nothing else does,
You're never alone when I'm around
You can always rely on me,
I'm a friend, my love won't bend,
And that I can guarantee,
Straight and true and all for you,
I'm so eager to please,
Stick with me and I'll keep you free,
From any nasty disease,
'Cos I'm a Vibrator,
Pleased to make a start,
Vibrator, with a powerpack for a heart

Check my heart before you start,
I don't wanna blow no fuse,
New battery, is that for me?
That's something I could really use,
Power surge I get the urge,
To do my legendary thing,
The stars in your eyes don't tell no lies,
I know your bells are starting to ring,


'Cos I'm a Vibrator,
Pleased to make a start,
Vibrator, with a powerpack for a heart

Vibrator! Vibrator!

Wasn't that good, now wasn't that nice?
Now see we get along real fine,
I knew I was the boy for you,
When you came for the second time,
Clean me up, put me away,
You know you need the rest,
I'll be here when next you need me,
I've never ever failed the test,
'Cos I'm a Vibrator,
Pleased to make a start,
Vibrator, with a powerpack for a heart
I'm a Vibrator,
Pleased to make a start,
I'm a Vibrator,
And I'll never ever break your heart

Nobody knows, I know nobody cares

We have this door, nobody gets in

This is a song for all you managers and agents out there.
Are ya listening? Good!
They take your money, break your soul,
They say it's only rock 'n' roll,
They think they're cool to wheel and deal,
Without a thought to how we feel,
They pick you up and drop you flat,
Then tell you life can be like that,
You blew it all the day you signed,
Your stupid name on some dotted line,
We hate the men, who make the rules,
The ones who always try so hard to make us look like Fools!

They say we need them it ain't true,
The music's down to me and you,
We play their games, play real nice,
We gotta hear their dumb advice
We hate the men, who make the rules,
The ones who always try so hard to make us look like Fools!



So many lies, they get confused,
You start to feel you're being used,
If ten percent is all they take,
What happens to all the bread you make?
Every day it gets a little harder,
Just to keep on keeping on,
Do we really need all this bullshit,
So long now all the thrill has gone,
We hate the men, who make the rules,
The ones who always try so hard to make us look like Fools!

It's so hard to make us look like you!
