1. Motorhead (live)
Sunrise, wrong side of another day
Sky high, and six thousand miles away
Don't know how long I been awake
Wound up in an amazin' state
Can't get enough
And you know its righteous stuff
Goes up like prices at Christmas this-
Motorhead, you can call me
Motorhead, all right...
Brained out, total amnesia
Get some mental anaesthesia
Don't move, I'll shut the door and kill the lights
If I can be wrong, I must 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, the morning's not a pretty sight
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, all night...
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, you 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. 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
4. Rock It
Rock'n'roll, save your soul
An' I got it
Give it to me, loud and free
Don't knock it
Let me hear 'til the end of time
It's the only way
Send shivers up and down your spine
You can't stop it
[CHORUS]
I'm tellin' one more time
It ain't no crime
Rock it
It's the only way to fly
Gotta have it
Break thru gonna break you too
Better grab it
Let me hear it 'til the end of time
It's the only way
It'll stop you on a dime
Gotta have it
[CHORUS]
Rock'n'roll music gonna stop the world
Can't lose it
It'll make your toenails curl
Can't defuse it
Let me hear it all the time
It's the only way
Gonna make ya feel alright
You can't excuse it
[CHORUS]
5. 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 etc.
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 etc.
6. 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
7. Steal Your Face
He moves so slowly but he's coming after you
Nowhere to hide and not a thing that you can do
You're on his mind, you're on his mind
You're gonna leave the human race,
You know you can't stand the pace
Gonna sink without a trace
He's gonna steal your face
Don't try to run, he's gonna find you day or night
Just sit and shiver and be ready for the bite
You're on his mind, you're on his mind
You're lost in hostile space, gonna feel the cold embrace
You're in a state of grace, he's gonna steal your face
Nowhere to run you know he's never far away
Knows where you are and he gets closer every day
You're on his mind, you're on his mind
And I'll bet that he can't wait
You know he's gonna take the bait
Gonna be on your case
He's gonna steal your face
He's gonna steal your face
He's gonna steal your face
He's gonna steal your face
8. (We Are) The Road Crew
Another town, another place
Another girl, another face
Another truck, another race
Eatin' junk, feelin' bad
Another night, goin' mad
My Woman leavin' I'm so sad
But I just love the life I lead
Another beer is what I need
Another gig, my ears bleed
We are the road crew
Another town, left behind
Another drink, completely blind
Another hotel I can't find
Another backstage pass for you
Another tube of superglue
Another border to get through
Drivin' like a maniac
Drivin' way to hell and back
Another room a case to pack
We are the road crew
Another hotel, we can burn
Another screw, another turn
Another Europe map to learn
Another truckstop on the way
Another game that I can play
Another word I learned to say
Another bloody customs post
Another fucking foreign coast
Another set of scars to boast
We are the road crew
9. Snaggletooth
Though I was done for now, well here´s a big surprise
´Cos I keep coming back, I can´t be exorcised
I´m like a nightmare babe, I´m here to mess with you
I´ll make your hair stand up and I´ll make your lips turn blue
CHORUS:
I´m gonna raise your roof
Ring your bell and that´s the truth
Speed don´t kill and I´m the proof
Just call me Snaggletooth
I´ve just been waiting here, and you were late again,
But I knew you´d be back, I hoped you´d bring a friend
I want you to believe that there is no way out
You´re in the snakepit, babe, there´s a lot of it about
CHORUS
So now you know my name, I guess you realise
Don´t try to fight babe, I got you hypnotised
And sometime late tonight you´ll hear the were wolf call
Gonna be old Snaggletooth gotcha by the balls!
CHORUS
10. Stay Clean
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.
11. Iron Horse (live)
He rides a road, that don´t have no end,
An open highway, without any bends,
Tramp and his stallion, alone in a dream,
Proud in his colours, as the chromium gleams,
On Iron Horse he flies, on Iron Horse he gladly dies,
Iron Horse his wife, Iron Horse his life
He lives his life, he´s living it fast,
Don´t try to hide, when the dice have been cast,
He rides a whirlwind, that cuts to the bone,
Loaded forever, and righteously stoned,
On Iron Horse he flies, on Iron Horse he gladly dies,
Iron Horse his wife, Iron Horse his life
Yeah, slide it to me!
One day one day, they´ll go for the sun,
Together they´ll slide, on the eternal run,
Wasted forever, on speed bikes and booze,
Yeah tramp and the brothers, all born to lose,
On Iron Horse he flies, on Iron Horse he gladly dies,
Iron Horse his wife, Iron Horse his life
12. One Track Mind
One arm bandit, one way ride,
One arm bandit, one more try,
One way ticket, one horse town,
One way ticket, no way down,
One Track Mind (x4)
Two lane highway, two hand car,
Two lane highway, too damn far,
Two faced women, two time guys,
Two faced women, two black eyes,
One Track Mind (x4)
Three time loser, break the law,
Three time loser, two bit whore,
Three ring circus, free form show,
Three ring circus, way to go,
One Track Mind (x4)
13. Speedfreak
Got to hurry, got to hurry
I don´t believe you worry
Take it back, take it back
You know you can´t do that
Don´t want no sleep
Up for a week
Yes, I´m a speekfreak, speedfreak
Way too fast, way too fast
Gonna be the first and last
Shoot ya down, shoot ya down
Flamin´ Wreck you hit the ground
Up for a week
Don´t need no sleep
Cos I´m a speedfreak, speedfreak
No regrets, no regrets
You can´t afford´em yet
Comin´ down, comin´ down
Over, under, sideways, round
Up for a week
Playin´ Hide and Seek
Cos I´m a speedfreak, everlasting speedfreak
14. Loser
I´m a loser
I´m a loser, that´s what they said
That´s what they said
Now I got their women in my bed
You buy me a drink and you wish that I was dead
I´m a loser
I´m a loser and I don´t know their names
I don´t know their names
Call me a superstar, play that game
Cost you a million just to sign your name
I´m a loser
I´m a loser they turn me around
Turn me around
Big wide smile gonna bring me down
They don´t know your arse from a hole in the ground
15. (Don't Need) Religion
Don´t need no blind belief
Don´t need no comic relief
Don´t need to see the scars
Don´t need Jesus Christ Superstar
Don´t need no Sunday Television
Bet your life you don´t need religion
Don´t need no time for prayer
Don´t save no knee-pads for me up there
If your head´s alright, ya don´t need binoculars to see the light
Ya don´t need no miracle vision
Bet ya life etc.
I don´t need no Santa Claus
Don´t believe in fairies no more
Don´t need to go to confession
I´m already trying to fight depression
Don´t need no exorcism
Bet ya life etc.
16. 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
17. 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
18. 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
19. Love Me Like A Reptile
Knew I had to bite you baby when I first set eyes on you,
That moment turned me on, I can't believe it's true,
I like to watch your body sway,
I got no choice, I'm gonna twist your tail,
Love Me Like A Reptile, I'm gonna sink my fangs in you
Thunder lizard, stony eye, you got me hypnotised,
Hot tongue breaks in and out and I can't believe my eyes,
And your soft white belly, next to mine,
Scaly baby, see you shine,
Love Me Like A Reptile, you're murder in disguise,
Black mamba, murder in disguise
Baby you're a rattlesnake, you know the way I feel,
Feel you crawling up my back, you've got no love to steal,
You know I've got my eyes on you,
You're petrified, gonna stick like glue,
Love Me Like A Reptile, shock you like an electric eel
20. Ace Of Spades
