1. Louie, Louie (Richard Berry cover)
Hit it!
Louie, Louie, oh baby,
We gotta go
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Louie, Louie, oh baby,
We gotta go
Oh my little girl,
She’s ready for me
I’d catch a ship, across the sea
Sailing the ship
All alone
I wonder when I’m gonna make it home
Louie, Louie, oh baby,
We gotta go
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Louie, Louie, oh baby,
We gotta go
Three days, and nights
I sailed the sea
I think you’re good, oh constantly
On the ship I know I’ll dream she’s there
The smell of roses in her hair
Louie, Louie, oh baby,
We gotta go
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Louie, Louie, oh baby,
We gotta go
Ok! Let’s give it to em! Right now!
Hey!
I see Jamaica
Who’d have thought?
I see the girl I’m, thinkin of
I take her in my arms, and then
Tell her that I’ll never leave again
Louie, Louie
Ey, ey, ey, ey, ey, ey
Louie, Lou
Oh no
Louie, Louie, oh baby
We gotta go
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
2. 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, 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
3. 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
4. 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
5. Leaving Here (Golden Years EP)
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,
'Cos 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,
'Cos I'm Leaving, Leaving Here,
Yeah, one by one, yeah two by two,
Yeah three by three, yeah four by four
Hey fellows, better change your ways,
Or they'll be leaving this town in a matter of days,
One day, one day and it won't be long,
And all them fine chicks will be gone,
'Cos I'm Leaving, Leaving Here,
Yeah two by two, yeah four by four,
Oh yeah, I'm Leaving Here
6. Stone Dead Forever (Golden Years EP)
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
7. Ace Of Spades
If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man,
You win some, lose some, it's 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 a game 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 gotta 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
8. Motorhead (live)
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
9. 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, evil eye
You know me, prepare to die
You know me, the snakebite kiss
Devil's grip, the Iron Fist
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, evil eye
You know me, prepare to die
You know me, the snakebite kiss
Devil's grip, the Iron Fist
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. Shine
Hard time getting to ya babe,
Double take, figure real rough trade,
But you know I'm a real good lover,
Can't judge a book by its cover,
I know and you know I know,
Can't trust your intuition no more
Look good and I make you smile,
Bet you thought I wouldn't have no style,
I'm gonna turn your head around,
Won't know 'til you hit the ground,
Gonna change the way you feel,
I'm gonna roll you like a wheel
High life, I'm a fool for you,
Low life, I like to break the rules,
First bite, you know I got a taste for you,
I'm gonna make you shine
Be a switch to say the least,
My beauty gonna meet your beast,
Comin' over and shake your tree,
My body's gonna set you free,
I know and you know it's true,
Move over I'm coming through
It's all over and I got you down,
Gonna chase you round and round,
Mess around with the way I feel,
Gonna offer you a whole new deal,
Gonna lay it on ya just for kicks,
Down on ya like a ton of bricks
High life, I'm a fool for you,
Low life, I like to break the rules,
First bite, you know I got a taste for you,
I'm gonna make you shine
I'm gonna make you shine! Shine!
12. 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 [x4]
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
Killed by death
Killed by death
Killed by death
