1. Motorhead
Sunrise, 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, You can call me Motorhead, alright
Brain dead, total amnesia,
Get some mental anasthesia,
Don´t move, I´ll shut the door and kill the lights,
And if I can´t be wrong I could be right,
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,
I guess I´ll see you all on the ice,
I should be tired,
And all I am is wired,
Ain´t felt this good for an hour,
Motorhead, Remember me now, Motorhead alright
2. Vibrator
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,
Greased and ready to 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,
Greased and ready to 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,
Greased and ready to start,
Vibrator, with a powerpack for a heart
I´m a Vibrator,
Greased and ready to start,
I´m a Vibrator,
And I´ll never ever break your heart
3. Lost Johnny
Lost Johnny
You only get a single chance
The rules are very plain,
The truth is well concealed inside
The details of the game,
You can hear it coming,
You can see it from afar,
It´s pale and it glimmers
Like a faded movie star
And out there in the castle,
They´re trying to make us scream,
By sticking thumb tags in a flash
And cancelling the dream,
Can you find the Valium,
Can you bring them soon,
Lost Johnny´s out there,
Baying at the moon
The time has come for you to choose,
You´d better get it right,
Pulling girls with sharp white teeth
Are waiting in the night,
But you want to really get some,
It surely can´t be hard,
There´s always trouble lurking
When you leave your own backyard
Underneath the city,
The alligators sing,
Of how the fool he cannot dance,
When someone cuts the strings,
Can you find the morphine,
Try to be so brief,
Lost Johnny´s out there,
Looking for relief
That laddie looks so evil,
And you know he really tries,
But every time he makes a play,
That battle compromise,
And shall I find their underwear,
From a store where no-one goes,
She makes it big in dugs,
On the strength of what she shows,
And here inside the waiting room,
The radio still screams,
And we´re shooting children,
To murder all young things,
Can you find your credit card,
For god´s sake make it quick,
Lost Johnny´s out there,
Trying to turn a trick
4. Instro
Instro
5. Overkill (Long version)
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, 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
6. Stay Clean (Remix)
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.
7. Capricorn
Capricorn
A thousand nights, I've spent alone,
Solitaire, to the bone,
But I don't mind, I'm my own best friend,
From the beginning, to the end,
My life, my heart, black night, dark star, Capricorn
December's child, the only one,
What I do, is what I've done,
I realise, I get so cold,
When I was young I was already old,
My life, my heart, black night, dark star, Capricorn
I always knew, the only way,
Is never live, beyond today,
They proved me right,
They proved me wrong,
But they could never last this long,
My life, my heart, black night, dark star, Capricorn
8. Stay Clean (Normal version)
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.
9. No Class
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
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
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 really tragic,
No Class
10. Sweet Revenge
Hello victims!
I can almost taste it,
It's the need to see you die,
You thought you had it made,
Well here's your final shock surprise,
How do you like it,
My unfaithful friend?
How do you like it?
How do you like my Sweet Revenge?
Turn the key in the door,
No one close to hear you scream,
You'll never imagine the pain,
Even in you're foulest dreams,
How do you like that
Invitation friend?
How do you like that?
That's what I call my Sweet Revenge
So sweet to see you,
Writhe and crawl and scream for life,
But I can't listen now,
I'm too busy with the knife,
I don't hear you laughing,
My dismembered friend,
I don't hear you laughing,
You don't like my Sweet Revenge
11. Stone Dead Forever
You think you see me, in the glass
You think you hear me, you better listen fast,
I think I see you, gone to seed,
The only reasons, were your guilt and greed,
You're out there on your own,
Your face turned to stone,
Whatever happened to your life?
Stone Dead Forever
It's been a long time, been a long long wait,
And you've caught your fingers, in the Pearly Gates,
You'd better leave your number, and we'll call you,
You know your problems, ain't exactly new,
The wrong side of the fold,
Your touch has turned to gold,
Whatever happened to your life?
Stone Dead Forever
You're a financial wizard, a top tycoon,
A sweet lounge lizard, with a silver spoon,
You know you never had it, quite so good,
'Cos you didn't know, that you even could,
But the time has come to pay,
Turns out to have been a play,
Whatever happened to your life?
Stone Dead Forever
12. Bömber (Long version)
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
13. Vibrator (Long version)
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,

17. Talking Head
Talking Head
Don't touch that dial!
Television screams, your face turning green,
Don't listen to the news,
Don't know what you hear, they never make it clear,
They like to keep your state confused,
Propaganda time, the official line,
You're hungry, you get fed,
Everlasting smile, you must convey their style,
But they're just a Talking Head
Television voice don't give you any choice,
You only hear the man,
Don't take them in, you don't know where they been,
'Cos it's a complex plan,
They keep you nice and quiet, even control your diet,
You're hungry you get fed,
Teach you to be meek, 'til all you are is weak,
'Til you're just a Talking Head
Television screams, this ought to be a dream,
Remember what I say,
Don't be hypnotised by sugar coated lies,
Don't switch it on today,
It's the way things are, from that pickle jar,
You're hungry you get fed,
But if you play the game, you become the same,
Another Talking Head
