Free lyrics - Iggy Pop

I wanna be free

I wanna be free

Free

Loves Missing lyrics - Iggy Pop

She's thinking about something we all need
All need
Clock's ticking, not giving her room to breathe
To breathe

Loves screaming
Loves missing

Loves screaming, so quietly and in pain
Loves absent, it's failing her once again
Again

Loves screaming
Loves screaming

Dark future, she just needs someone to say
To say
"I love you", before she gets pushed away

Loves absent
Loves absent
The center won't hold me in
Loves absent
And she cannot touch a friend
A friend

She's breathing, and that isn't gonna help
No help
Clock's ticking, it's bad when she's by herself
Herself

Loves screaming
Loves missing
Loves screaming
Screaming

Sonali lyrics - Iggy Pop

Stack on the clay
Pile up the rocks
High off the ground
Chisel it down
To park the car
We must find parking
Or spend the day
On the freeway
Stay in your lane
It's what you want
And yes, I approve
'Cause if I run out of gas
You'll be my excuse
First generation
Assimilations
You wear it well
And no one can tell
No one can tell

She won't take my call
When I am tipsy
'Cause she's on the wagon
Dressed like a gypsy
Do like the Romans
Pop Melatonin
Falling asleep
Blame it on me
Stay in your lane
Stack on the clay
Pile up the rocks
High off the ground
Chisel it down
To park the car
We must find parking
On the freeway
Stay in your lane
Stay in your lane
Stay in your lane

Sonali
Sonali

On the freeway
Stay in your lane
Sonali

James Bond lyrics - Iggy Pop

She wants to be your James Bond
She wants to be your James Bond
Well, it's not for a price and it's not to be nice
She wants to be your James Bond
She wants to be your James Bond
(James Bond)
She wants to be your James Bond
She might stand in your way, but still she'll save the day
She wants to be your James Bond
(James Bond)

She walks like him
Talks like him too
She can suss out the spy
Even if it's you
She trusts no one
Not even herself
She makes no sudden moves
Chalks it up to stealth

She wants to be your James Bond
She wants to be your James Bond
Well, it's not for a price and it's not to be nice
She wants to be your James Bond
(James Bond)
She wants to be your James Bond
She wants to be your James Bond
She might stand in your way, but still she'll save the day
She wants to be your James Bond

Nuts melt in her mouth
But not in her hand
No need to figure it out
She just likes M&Ms
Sweet to the taste
Bitter in the gut
'Cause she fills them up
With you know what

She will not be shamed
(She will not be shamed)
She will not be blamed
(She will not be blamed)
When she confuses a tune
She blames it on you
Screaming, "You're insane
You're insane"

Didn't make the rules, so don't blame me
Most fools gravitate to vanity
And her sanity is insanity
Driving off while making you feel guilty
(James Bond)

She wants to be your James Bond
She wants to be your James Bond
She might stand in your way, but still she'll save the day
She wants to be your James Bond
(James Bond)
She wants to be your James Bond
She wants to be your James Bond
She'll become a double agent if you try her patience
So let her be your James Bond
(James Bond)
Let her be your James Bond
Just let her be your James Bond

Save the day, baby

Dirty Sanchez lyrics - Iggy Pop

If I say it's my fault (If I say it's my fault)
For your success by default (For your success by default)
Can you lighten up on me? (Can you lighten up on me?)
Can you lighten up on me? (Can you lighten up on me?)
Don't tell me I'm the benefit (Don't tell me I'm the benefit)
Of being a conscious idiot (Of being a conscious idiot)
As I shoot myself in the knee (As I shoot myself in the knee)
As I shoot myself in the knee (As I shoot myself in the knee)

'Cause if there's more slaves today ('Cause if there's more slaves today)
Than there was yesterday (Than there was yesterday)
Then you gotta be fuckin' kidding me (Then you gotta be fuckin' kidding me)
Words don't mean shit to society (Words don't mean shit to society)
I'll grab a whip, make you grab your heels (I'll grab a whip, make you grab your heels)
So that you know just how it feels (So that you know just how it feels)
But you probably think we're being kinky (But you probably think we're being kinky)
But you probably think we're being kinky (But you probably think we're being kinky)

You desensitized sluts (You desensitized sluts)
Always playing with your butts (Always playing with your butts)
The things you do for the camera (The things you do for the camera)
This online porn is driving me nuts (This online porn is driving me nuts)
Trying to implicate desires (Trying to implicate desires)
That are not my desires (That are not my desires)
Just because I like big tits (Just because we like big tits)
Doesn't mean I like big dicks (Doesn't mean I like big dicks)

Yelling, "Rich man, make it stop" (Yelling, "Rich man, make it stop")
We don't all want the cock (We don't all want the cock)
As we hand them our last dime (As we hand them our last dime)
And blame them all the time (And blame them all the time)
I think I am confused (I think you are confused)
I think we are confused (I think we are confused)
So if I say it's my fault (So if I say it's my fault)
For your success by default (For your success by default)
Will you lighten up on me? (Can you lighten up on me?)
Can you lighten up on me? (Can you lighten up on me?)

Glow In The Dark lyrics - Iggy Pop

If we want silver and gold and diamonds and pearls
Then everyone must play their part in this world
Servants will serve and kings will rule
Pretend we don't know but I bet that you do
Hypocrites point and call it corrupt
Ubiquitous chatrooms chatting about us
And I am not exempt from the whitest of noise
If I forfeit, mark me isolated
So turn off the lights, watch me glow in the dark
Take away the rug, find me levitating
Bet you'll think that I do it alone
To explain all this means further explaining
Positive thoughts make a brighter you
Your sense of community is going to kill you

Page lyrics - Iggy Pop

Dreary causes
They yield all the applauses
You've done it all before
You'll dread the encore
And as the tide rushes in
To where you once began

We're only human
No longer human

My intuition
Mistaken for my mission
And your petition, but stay
Lest your tuition remains unpaid
And as you fall in line
You'll know the jones isn't mine

We're only human
No longer human

And I'm to you just an artifact
And still you blame me for the soundtrack
All I can do is sigh
All you can do is cry
'Cause wolves and sheep do rest
Not side by side, still, they rest

We're only human
No longer human

We Are The People lyrics - Iggy Pop

We are the people without land
We are the people without tradition
We are the people who do not know how to die peacefully and at ease
We are the thoughts of sorrows
Endings of tomorrows
We are the wisps of rulers
And the jokers of kings

We are the people without right
We are the people who have known only lies and desperation
We are the people without a country, a voice, or a mirror
We are the crystal gaze returned through the density and immensity of a berzerk nation
We are the victims of the untold manifesto of the lack of depth
Of full and heavy emptiness

We are the people without sorrow
Who have moved beyond national pride and indifference
To a parody of instinct
We are the people who are desperate
Beyond emotion because it defies thought
We are the people who conceive our destruction and carry it out lawfully
We are the insects of someone else's thought
A casualty of daytime, nighttime, space, and God
Without race, nationality, or religion
We are the people, and the people, the people

Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night lyrics - Iggy Pop

Do not go gentle into that good night
Old age should burn and rage at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
Though wise men at their end know dark is right
Because their words had forked no lightning
Do not go gentle into that good night
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way
Do not go gentle into that good night
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
And you, my father, there on the sad height
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray
Do not go gentle into that good night
Rage, rage against the dying of the light

The Dawn lyrics - Iggy Pop

Waiting for the dawn again
The darkness is like a challenger
To all my schemes and orders
And forced good nature
To just lay down is to give up
You gotta do something
Something
Because the dark is like a challenger
And he will point out the sore point
The wanting point
In my stage of the game
He'll point out memories
Basic, basic memories
The few moments that make life any fucking good
And he'll put those in my face
In the dark
If all else fails, it's good to smile in the dark
Love and sex are gonna occur to you
And neither one will solve the darkness

Teatime Dub Encounters (2018) - Iggy Pop (with Underworld)




















Bells & Circles lyrics - Underworld & Iggy Pop

If I had wings, I wouldn't do anything beautiful and transcendent
No, I'd get my finger into everything I wanted
I'd do all the beautiful things, those thing you can't do
Because nobody wants you to be able to do the things that make you feel good
Like you can't smoke on the aeroplane
I remember smoking on the aeroplane
I used to love the smoke on the airplane
Those were the golden days of air trave
They would just open the door at the airport
And you'd walk right out the tarmac
And up those stairs and light a big cigarette
And stick it in the ashtray and the stewardess would come along
And if she was hot, you can try to pick her up
Once I was flying from New York to DC, I didn't have much time
And the stewardess was smoking
She was a dusky tall American beauty
And I put down my tray table, snorted a gram of cocain
Till I got up my courage to say, "Can I have your phone number?"
And she gave me the number, that was the good news
The bad news was I got too stoned and I lost the number
The stewardess would've been better than the cocain
I made an error in judgement
But still I remember smoking on the aeroplane
Smoking on the aeroplane
Smoking on the aeroplane, everybody did it
They gather at the back on the way to Australia
And all puff up at once outside the bathroom
And that's why if I had wings
That would be a bad idea, hahahahaha, I guess
According to everything I've been taught about the laws of
Ethics and karma and good behavior, hahahahaha
If I had wings, I'd go, yum, yum, yum-yum, yum-yum, yum, ow!
I'd have fun
If I had wings, I'd have fun
Smoking on the aeroplane

Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight on my wings

(You can't do that)
(You can't do that)
(You can't do that)
(You can't do that)

Teenage boys used to hijack the aeroplane and send it to Cuba
Castro would charge 20 grand, the airline would get your aeroplane back
He had a good business (You can't do that, you can't do that)
It's over (You can't do that, you can't do that)
It's over for the liberal democracies (You can't do that)
It's over (You can't do that) Here comes the jungle (You can't do that)

Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight on my wings (You can't do that)
Sunlight on my wings (You can't do that)
Sunlight on my wings (You can't do that)

No more rock critics (You can't do that, you can't do that)
No more (You can't do that)
European ideas of (You can't do that) Good and bad (You can't do that)
Only a vengeful (You can't do that) God does not allow smoking on the aeroplane
(You can't do that, you can't do that)
(You can't do that) There will be no revolution (You can't do that)
And that's why (You can't do that) It won't be televised (You can't do that)

Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight on my wings
Sunlight (You can't do that)
Sunlight (You can't do that)
Sunlight (You can't do that)
Sunlight (You can't do that)

If I had wings...

Trapped lyrics - Underworld & Iggy Pop

I'm trapped, I'm trapped and I'll never get out no more
I'm trapped, I'm trapped and I'll never get out no more

I really wanted to be special
I really wanted to live in heaven
I thought that I could be so free
But all of this coming back on me

I'm trapped and I'll never get out no more
I'm trapped, I'm trapped and I'll never get out no more

I'm trapped
Bring all those women babies
I'm trapped
Bring all the dangerous ladies

No drug, no drug, no drink's gonna help me no more
No drug, no drug, no drink's gonna help me no more

I'm trapped in a land
Trapped in a land
Trapped in a land
And I'm trapped in a band

I'm trapped

Let's hear it for Johnny
He's got a mortgage
He's got a house
Oh no
He's got a house
Here goes the little boy inside
Goodbye, little boy

Goodbye, little boy
Goodbye, little boy
Goodbye, little boy
Goodbye, little boy

I'm trapped

I'm trapped, I'm trapped and I'll never get out no more
I'm trapped, I'm trapped and I'll never get out no more

I really wanted to be special
I really wanted to live in heaven
I thought that I could be so free
But all of this coming back on me

I'm trapped and I'll never get out no more
I'm trapped, I'm trapped and I'll never get out no more

I'm trapped
Bring all those women babies
I'm trapped
Bring all the dangerous ladies

No drug, no drug, no drink's gonna help me no more
No drug, no drug, no drink's gonna help me no more

I'm trapped in a land
Trapped in a land
Trapped in a land
And I'm trapped in a band

I'm trapped

Let's hear it for Johnny
He's got a mortgage
He's got a house
Oh no
He's got a house
Here goes the little boy inside
Goodbye, little boy

Goodbye, little boy
Goodbye, little boy
Goodbye, little boy
Goodbye, little boy

I'm trapped

I'm gone, I'm gone and I'm always in the brand new place
I'm gone, I'm gone and I'm always in the brand new place

And even though I'm here and now
I'm never really anywhere
Cause it's a bullshit game
It's a bullshit game
It's a bullshit game

And I'm trapped
Trapped
Trapped

I'll See Big lyrics - Underworld & Iggy Pop

Hey, is that me?
I wanted to have some friends
But not a lot of people wanted to be my friend
Couple a nerds maybe
But nerd have trouble being friends
'Cause they're too stocked up
I mean, they can play games with you but
After that you get a kinda blank stare
So I found these guys that um
They didn't have any other friends
And they weren't very demanding
We could do things together like
Smoke dope, take LSD, try to get girls
And dream about playing some music and um
Just being comfortable all the time and never working
Never, never working
This run along pretty well for a while but
Friends need to be demanding, people need to be demanding
I started becoming demanding
And I lost my friends
They couldn't stand anybody being demanding
As a demanding person I got somewhere in life
I started having girlfriends
I was very demanding of them
But I didn't let them be demanding of me
I started making big friends
Friends that could help me
Oh, those friends are really demanding
You don't get a warm fuzzy feeling
But you get
What you gotta have to get along
I mean, that's showbiz
I'm getting a little older now
I start to think about the friends that are gonna think of me
When I move along
There are one or two of them are gonna have a grin
And a good memory of me
They're not the best, fanciest people
Not even very good people frankly
Their big claim to fame is
They're my friends
Useless, expensive, maddening, pain in the ass friends

Get Your Shirt lyrics - Underworld & Iggy Pop

I signed
I signed on the dotted line
And I lost my shirt
I signed on the dotted line
He stole my shirt
I fell in love
In love I fell
She stole my shirt
I fell, I fell, I fell in love, I fell
I got, I got ripped off
I lost my shirt

Walk on
Don't try hard to be a flirt
Get your shirt
Get your hands out of the dirt
Get your shirt
Walk on
Get your shirt, get your shirt
Walk on and wait
For the music of the spheres
To move the stars
Into the right position
To reclaim my fortune
I want my shirt back
No, not a hair shirt
A fun fare shirt

Don't try hard to be a flirt
Get your shirt, get your shirt
Get your hands out of the dirt
Get your shirt, get your shirt

Don't try hard to be a flirt
Get your shirt, get your shirt
'Cause nobody loves a jerk
Get your shirt, get your shirt
It's getting harder to be free
It's getting so much harder to be me
It's getting so much harder to be
It's getting so much harder to be free

Get your ass out of the dirt
Get your shirt baby, get your shirt
Wake up, don't be a flirt, come on
Get your shirt, get your shirt
Don't try hard to be a flirt
Get your shirt, get your shirt
Get your hands out of the dirt
Get your shirt, get your shirt
Be a president or clerk
Get your shirt, get your shirt
'Cause nobody loves a jerk
Get your shirt, get your shirt
It's getting harder to feel free
It's getting so much harder just to be
Don't try hard to be a flirt
Get your shirt
Get your hands out of the dirt
Get your shirt
Be a president or clerk
Get your shirt, get your shirt
'Cause nobody loves a jerk
It's getting harder to be free
It's getting so much harder to be me

Asshole Rules The Navy lyrics - Iggy Pop (feat. A Hawk And A Hacksaw)

Let us sing a bit of good old Captain Kitt
Who sat one morning early in the head
A bee came flying past and it stung him on the ass
And this is what the gallant captain said

Asshole rules the Navy, asshole rules the sea
If you want a bit of bum, better get it from your chum -
You'll get no ass from me

Now we'll hear some rhymes of Yeoman Second Grimes
Who ran the hook that hoisted up the mail
One day as he stood watch it caught him in the crotch
And he cried as he went flying o'er the rail, "It doesn't matter!..."

Asshole rules the Navy, asshole rules the sea
If you want a bit of bum, better get it from your chum -
You'll get no ass from me

And now to end my song I'll sing of AB Long
Whose member was not like his name at all
When asked if he would tell how he got along so well
His answer simply was as I recall, "It's very simple…"

Asshole rules the Navy, asshole rules the sea
If you want a bit of bum, better get it from your chum -
You'll get no ass from me-e-e-eee
If you want a bit of bum, better get it from your chum -
You'll get no ass from me

Dirty Little Virus lyrics - Iggy Pop

Covid-19 is on the scene
The boys and the girls
Can't stop their whirl
Grandfather's dead
Got trump instead
I wanna grind
I'm losing my mind

Dirty little virus
Sleeping inside us
Gone are the paydays
Gone are the playdays

Dirty little virus
Sleeping inside us
Oh, what a grind
I'm losing my mind

She's only nineteen
But she can kill ya
She ain't my type
But it is what it is
Guy get's a fever
Thinks he sees her
Oh, what a grind
I'm losing my mind

Dirty little virus
Sleeping inside us
Gone are the paydays
Gone are the playdays

Dirty little virus
Sleeping inside us
Oh what a grind
I'm losing my mind

Can't have no fun
Can't touch no one
Can't have no fun
Don't touch no one

Covid-19
Covid-19
Dirty little virus

European Son lyrics - Iggy Pop & Matt Sweeney

You killed your European son
You spit on those under twenty-one
But now your blue cars are gone
You better say so long
Hey hey hey, bye bye bye

You made your wallpapers green
You want to make love to the scene
Your European son is gone
You'd better say so long
Your clowns bid you goodbye

Gold lyrics - Iggy Pop

(from "Gold" soundtrack)

It's okay, it's alright
The promise of the tongue
Leaving them behind tonight
But I guess this time, I'm doubled up
I'm doubled down again
I got no time to turn it around again

Hail to the thief
And you won't get nothing much
Hail to the thief
And we'll keep what's left to night

A little faith, too little pride
Will we ever get it right?
Keep looking for a sign tonight
But I guess it's time, I'm doubled up
And doubled down again
Got no time to turn it around again

Hail to the thief
And you won't get nothing much
Hail to the thief
And we'll keep what's left to night
Hail to the thief
And you won't get left in line
Hail to the thief
And we'll keep what's left to night

Silent Night (2022 Mix) lyrics - William Shatner & Iggy Pop

Silent night, Holy night
All is calm, all is bright
'Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, Holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth

Silent night, Holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heav'nly hosts sing Alleluia
Christ the Savior is born
Christ the Savior is born

Silent night, Holy night
All is calm, all is bright
'Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night

Sweet Betsy From Pike lyrics - Iggy Pop

Do you remember sweet Betsy from Pike?
She crossed the wide prairies with her lover Ike
With two yoke of cattle and one spottled hog
And a tall Shanghai rooster and an old yellow dog

They soon reached the desert where Betsy gave out
And down in the sand she lay rolling about
Ike half distracted looked on in surprise
Saying, "Betsy, get up, you'll get sand in your eyes"

Sweet Betsy got up in a great deal of pain
She declared she'd go back to Pike County again
But Ihe, he just sighed then they fondly embraced
So he traveled along with his arm 'round her waist

They swam the wide rivers and climbed the tall peaks
They camped upon prairies for weeks upon weeks
Starvation and cholera, hard work and slaughter
They reached California 'spite of hell and high water

Then a miner said, "Betsy, will you dance with me?"
She answers, "I will if you want make two free
I can't dance too hard, do you want to know why?
Because I'm so full of that strong alkali"

This Pike County couple got married, of course
But Ike became jealous, obtained a divorce
And Betsy, well-satisfied, said with a shout
"Goodbye, you big lummox, I'm glad you backed out!"

Why Can't We Live Together lyrics - Dr. Lonnie Smith & Iggy Pop

Tell me why?
Tell me why?
Umm, why can't we live together?
Tell me why?
Tell me why?
Umm, why can't we live together?
Everybody wants to live together
Why can't we live together?

No more wars, no more wars, no more war
Umm, just a little peace in this world
No more wars, no more war
All we want is some peace in this world

Everybody wants to live together
Why can't we live together?

Can't live, can't live
Can't live together
Can't live together

No matter, no matter what color
You are still my brother
No matter, no matter what color
You are still my brother

Everybody wants to live together
Why can't we live together?
Be together
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
Be together
Be together

You Want It Darker lyrics - Iggy Pop

(originally by Leonard Cohen)

If you are the dealer
I'm out of the game
If you are the healer
It means I'm broken and lame
If thine is the glory
Then mine must be the shame
You want it darker
We kill the flame

Magnified, sanctified
Be thy holy name
Vilified, crucified
In the human frame
A million candles burning
For the help that never came
You want it darker

Hineni, hineni
I'm ready, my Lord

There's a lover in the story
But the story's still the same
There's a lullaby for suffering
And a paradox to blame
But it's written in the scriptures
And it's not some idle claim
You want it darker
We kill the flame

They're lining up the prisoners
And the guards are taking aim
I struggled with some demons
They were middle-class and tame
I didn't know I had permission
To murder and to maim
You want it darker

Hineni, hineni
I'm ready, my Lord

Magnified, sanctified
Be thy holy name
Vilified, crucified
In the human frame
A million candles burning
For the love that never came
You want it darker
We kill the flame

If you are the dealer
Let me out of the game
If you are the healer
I'm broken and lame
If thine is the glory
Mine must be the shame
You want it darker

Hineni, hineni
Hineni, hineni
I'm ready, my Lord

I'm ready
Oh
Oh
Ah
Ah
(I'm ready, my Lord)
I'm ready, my Lord

I Wanna Be Your Dog lyrics - Iggy Pop

I'm so messed up, I want you here
Well, in my room, I want you here
Now we're gonna be face to face
And I'll lay right down in my favorite place

Now I wanna be your dog
Now I wanna be your dog
Now I wanna be your dog
Well, come on
Ow

Well, now I'm ready to close my eyes
Now I'm ready to close my mind
Now I'm ready to feel your hand
And lose my heart on the burning sands

Now I wanna be your dog
Now I wanna be your dog
Now I wanna be your dog
Well, come on

I'm so messed up, I want you here
But in my room, I want you here
And now we're gonna be face to face
And I'll lay right down in my favorite place

Now I wanna be your dog
Now I wanna be your dog
Now I wanna be your dog
Well, come on

If You're Going To The City lyrics - Iggy Pop

(originally by Mose Allison)

If you're goin' to the city
You better have some cash
If you're goin' to the city
You better have some cash
'Cause the people in the city
They don't take no trash

If you're goin' to the city
You better bolt your door
If you're goin' to the city
You better bolt your door
They'll take all what you got
And come back for more

In the city, in the city
In the city, in the city
In the city, pretty baby
In the city

If you're goin' to the city
There's one thing I hope
If you're goin' to the city
There's one thing I hope
Don't take money from a woman
Or mess around with dope
Or mess around with dope
Don't mess around with dope
Stay its cool
Alright

Lust For Life (The Prodigy Remix) lyrics - Iggy Pop

(from "T2 Trainspotting" soundtrack)

Here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs
And the flesh machine
He's gonna do another striptease
Hey, man, where'd you get that lotion?
I been hurting since I bought the gimmick
About something called love
Yeah something called love
That's like hypnotizing chickens
Well I am just a modern guy
Of course I've had it in the ear before
Cause of a lust for life
Cause of a lust for life

I got a lust for life

I'm worth a million in prizes
With my torture film
Drive a G.T.O
Wear a uniform
All on a government loan

I'm worth a million in prizes
Yeah, I'm through with sleeping on the sidewalk
No more beating my brains
No more beating my brains
With the liquor and drugs
With the liquor and drugs

Well I am just a modern guy
Of course I've had it in the ear before
Cause of a lust for life
Cause of a lust for life

I got a lust for life

I got a lust for life
Lust for life
I got a lust for life
A lot of lust for life

Well I'm just a modern guy
Of course I've had it in the ear before
I got a lust for life
A lot of lust for life
I got a lust for life
Lust for life

Here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs
And the flesh machine
I know he's gonna do another striptease
Hey, man, where'd you get that lotion?
Your skin starts itching once you buy the gimmick
About something called love
Oh, love, love, love
About something called love, called love
Oh, love, love, love

Mobile lyrics - Pan Amsterdam & Iggy Pop (feat. Leron Thomas)

Two scratchers, Beef jerky, and a Power Ball
Two scratchers, Beef jerky, and a Power Ball

I paint self hate portraits in acrylic
Since pedophiles think I'm not photogenic
So cook up what you want in your burnt out skillet
Just know I do hunt and do know how to kill it

You think you get the cow from the milk, the worm from the silk
The friggin' slave from the quilt
Put food on my table one day but mad 'cause I didn't offer you lemonade from lemons
Planted by Lady Day

Strange fruit hangin, dead your syringe
Distorted guitars make white soul djs cringe
Pan Am's plasma makes hair on heads singe
X-class solar flare, I impinge

Give you vegetation and life but don't get to close
I ain't your star gate, burn you up like Sunday's pot roast
Like old fast food grease, and burnt onion rings
Don't worry about the two thousand in over rings

Aiight

Consider me your most humble worker
I'm lookin' at you as I make your burger
And when I punch out I'm up to nothin funny
Just at the gas station makin' the city money

And when I'm next in line I'm in it to win it
Playin' the lotto dreamy eyed like I was Tony Bennett
When I lose consolation rolls up in a minute
Toothless meth head offerin', mad clinic

Some are better than the rest of us
Reaching Nirvana with tooth ferries gazing out windows at Pegasus
More mobile than the rest of us,
Takin' life by the jugular, the be the best of regular

Back in the driver's seat Iggy be the passenger
Concession stand delicacies for my scavengers
Kicked outta Dawson's creek, darkness be a challenger
Poison Ivy still yields plans on my calendar

Ebony and Ivory
Wonder and McCartney, They in the backseat
We takin no briberies, shame you like Rwanda for takin the ivory outta the
Elephant's teeth

We playin musical chairs,
And you still lose if the music stops even if your PR did not

No kissin' fake derrieres
Cause we still choose what's cream of the crop even if your AR forgot

To Hell with your trials and tribulations
You're flippin burgers go prep the station

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA This here Hahahahaha...

Two scratchers, Beef jerky, and a Power Ball [repeats]

Move Your Hand lyrics - Dr. Lonnie Smith & Iggy Pop

Move your hand
Cause I can't see it
Move your hand
Cause I can't see it

I remember that day
You came my way
I remember that day
You came my way
And I said

Move your hand
Cause I can't see it
Move your hand
Cause I can't see it

Hey hey hey

Move your hand
Cause I can't see it
Move your hand
Cause I can't see it

Since the day I saw you
I've been waiting for you
Since the day I saw you
I've been waiting for you

Move your hand
Cause I can't see it
Move your hand
Cause I can't see it

Hey hey hey hey hey hey
Hey

You better move
You better move
Lord you better move

Damn
Damn

You better move you better move
You better move

Move your hand
I can't see it

Red Right Hand lyrics - Iggy Pop & Jarvis Cocker

(originally by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds)

Take a little walk to the edge of town
And go across the tracks
Where the viaduct looms
Like a bird of doom
As it shifts and cracks
Where secrets lie in the border fires
In the humming wires
Hey man, you know
You're never coming back
Past the square, past the bridge
Past the mills, past the stacks
On a gathering storm comes
A tall handsome man
In a dusty black coat with
A red right hand
A red right hand

He'll wrap you in his arms
Tell you that you've been a good boy
He'll rekindle all the dreams
It took you a lifetime to destroy
He'll reach deep into the hole
Heal your shrinking soul
But there won't be a single thing
That you can do
He's a God, he's a man
He's a ghost, he's a guru
They're whispering his name
Through this disappearing land
But hidden in his coat
Is a red right hand
Red right hand

You don't have no money?
He'll get you some
You don't have no car?
He'll get you one
You don't have no self-respect
You feel like an insect
Well don't you worry buddy
'Cause here he comes
Through the ghettos and the barrio
And the bowery and the slum
A shadow is cast wherever he stands
Stacks of green paper in his
Red right hand
Red right hand
Red right hand
Red right hand

You'll see him in your nightmares
You'll see him in your dreams
He'll appear out of nowhere but
He ain't what he seems
Because, you'll see him in your head
On the TV screen
And hey buddy, I'm warning
You to turn it off

He's a ghost, he's a God
He's a man, he's a guru

He's a ghost, he's a God
He's a man, he's a guru

You're one microscopic cog
In his catastrophic plan
Designed and directed by his
Red right hand
Red right hand
Red right hand
Red right hand

Break Into Your Heart lyrics - Iggy Pop

I'm gonna break into your heart
I'm gonna crawl under your skin
I'm gonna break into your heart
And follow till I see where you begin

Times so tight,it's closing in
Forty more hours to go
When the tumblers spin
I'm getting in
Gonna be time to grow

I'm gonna break into your heart
I'm gonna crawl under your skin
I'm gonna break into your heart
And follow till I see where you begin

Hooks go deep, but it's make believe
But you're never gonna grow
Your heart is buried underneath
Mountains capped with snow

I'm gonna break into your heart
I'm gonna crawl under your skin
I'm gonna break into your heart
And follow till I see where you begin

Break them all
Take them all
Fake them all
Steal them all
Fail them all
Touch them all
Break them all
Break them all

I'm gonna break into your heart
I'm gonna break into your heart
I'm gonna break into your heart
I'm gonna break into your heart
Till it all comes crashing down

I'm gonna break into your heart
I'm gonna crawl under your skin
I'm gonna break into your heart
And follow till I get under your skin
And the wall comes tumbling down
And you finally let me in
I'll break into your

Gardenia lyrics - Iggy Pop

Gardenia
Where are you?
Black goddess in a shabby raincoat
Where are you tonight?
Cheap purple baby-doll dress
A gardenia in your hair
Much taller and stronger than me
A forbidden dream, a dream, a dream

All I wanna do is tell Gardenia
What to do tonight
All I wanna do is tell Gardenia
What to do tonight

Gardenia
Where are you tonight?
The streets were your home
Now where do you roam?
Your hourglass ass
And your powerful back
Your slant devil eyes
And the ditch down your spine
Deep as... Deep as...

All I wanna do is tell Gardenia
What to do tonight
All I wanna do is tell Gardenia
What to do tonight

We lay in the darkness
Then she turned the lights on
I saw a dangerous habit
When she turned the lights on
There's always a catch
In the darkness when you
When you turn the lights on
There's always a catch
Oh well, oh well, oh well, oh well

All I wanna do is tell Gardenia
What to do tonight
All I wanna do is tell Gardenia
What to do tonight

Alone in the cheapo motel
By the highway to hell
America's greatest living poet
Was ogling you all night
You should be wearing the finest gown
But here you are now
Gas, food, lodging, poverty, misery and gardenia
You could be burned at the stake
For all your mistakes, mistakes, mistakes

All I wanna do is tell Gardenia
What to do tonight
All I wanna do is tell Gardenia
What to do tonight

American Valhalla lyrics - Iggy pop

I have no plans, I have no debts
The mind is not the carefree set
I'm looking for American Valhalla
So if it passes by give me a holler
Please

I've shot my gun, I've used my knife
This hasn't been an easy life
I'm hoping for American Valhalla
But if I have outlived my use
Please drink my juice

Innocence
It's so hard to figure it out
Innocence
It's so hard to figure it out
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
It's so hard to figure it out
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know

Where is American Valhalla
Death is the pill that's tough to swallow
Is there anybody in there?
Who do I have to kill?
I'm not the man with everything
I've nothing, but my name

Lowly, lowly deeds
That no one sees
Lowly, lowly deeds
That no one sees

Where is American Valhalla
Death is the pill that's hard to swallow
Is anybody in there?
And can I bring a friend?
I'm not the man with everything
I've nothing, but my name
I've nothing, but my name
I've nothing, but my name
I've nothing, but my name
I've nothing, but my name

In The Lobby lyrics - Iggy Pop

Breaking zee chain in the lobby
An ocean of bodies
And then there's me
And I hope I'm not
Losing my life tonight

And it's all about the hang
And it's all about the crowd that hangs
And it's all about the hook

Somebody is losing their life tonight

I followed my shadow
And it lead me here
What is the problem
If I disappear?
And I hope I'm not
Losing my life tonight

And it's all about the edge
And it's all about the fans and kids
And it's all about the sex
And it's all about guns

Yeah
I followed my shadow tonight
Out of the light

Yeah
I followed my shadow tonight
Out of the light

My shadow is walking
In front of me
The longer the night
The shorter my leash
And it's a long, long night
And I hope I'm not
Losing my life tonight

And it's all about the kicks
And it's all about the dancing pricks
And it's all about the clowns
And it's all about guns

Yeah
I followed my shadow tonight
Out of the light

Yeah
I followed my shadow tonight
Out of the light

Out of the light
Get out of sight

Out of the light
Get out tonight

Out of the light
Get out of sight

Out of the light
Get out tonight

Sunday lyrics - Iggy Pop

This house, is as slick as a senator’s statement
This job is a masquerade of recreation
Like a wreck, I’m sinking fast

The key to everything
I crawl for Sunday
When I don’t have to move
Caught up in dreams untangled one day
Where I don’t have to prove
The days roll on and finally Sunday
A Sunday afternoon
I’ve got it all
But what’s it for?
But getting some more

Always ready, always steady and
Always ready, always steady and…

The street is as cold as a corporate law suit
A pride, I can’t jive is telling me to wipe my boots
I’m a wreck
What did you expect?

The key to everything
I crawl for Sunday
When I don’t have to move
Caught up in dreams untangled one day
Where I don’t have to prove
The days roll on and finally Sunday
A Sunday afternoon
I’ve got it all
And so what now?

(Do what they say and then do what they say, go back)
(Do what they say and then do what they say, go back)
(Do what they say and then do what they say, go back)
Do what they say and do what they say till Sunday
(Do what they say)
Until I’m black and blue
Oh what can I do?

Always ready, always steady and
Always ready, always steady and...

Got all I need and it is killing me
And you
[x6]

Vulture lyrics - Iggy Pop

[Intro: Josh Homme]
Okay, cool

[Verse 1: Iggy Pop]
Fat, black vulture
White head hung low
Chewin' dead meat
By the side of the road
His evil breath
Smells just like death
He takes no chances
He knows the dances

[Refrain: Iggy Pop]
Vulture, ooh
Vulture, ooh
Vulture, ooh
Vulture, ooh

[Guitar Break]

[Verse 2: Iggy Pop]
Vulture waiting
For a life to end
Proving the prophet
He's nobody's friend
If he gets near
Your bones he'll clear
He'll jump your bandwagon
'Til it's your corpse he's draggin'

[Refrain: Iggy Pop]
Vulture, ooh
Vulture, ooh
Vulture, ooh
Vulture, ooh
Vulture
Vulture

[Verse 3: Iggy Pop]
Fat, black vulture
Has got no shame
He'll tell a lie
Cheat, steal, and frame
His poison whiff
Will kill you stiff
This toxic executive
Wants your guts in his grip

[Refrain: Iggy Pop]
Vulture, ooh
Vulture, ooh
Vulture, ooh
Vulture, ooh
Vulture
Vulture
Vulture
Vulture

[Outro: Iggy Pop]
Whoa
Oh...

German Days lyrics - Iggy Pop

Speak easy
Knock on the door
They'll check you out
Through the peep hole

There's a man
Who knows what you want
There's a girl
Who'll capture your flag

Glittering champagne on ice
Garish and overpriced

Champagne on ice
Dish overpriced

Schnellimbiss
And Pope Benedict
Brilliant brains
And the end of pain

Germany
Must germinate
Germinate
In a German way

Garish and overpriced
Glittering champagne on ice

Berlin and Christ
Champagne on ice

German Days
German Days
German Days
German Days

German Days

Chocolate Drops lyrics - Iggy Pop

When your love of life is an empty beach
Don't cry (Don't cry)
When your enemy has you in his reach
Don't die (Don't die)
When it's painful to express the things you feel (Inside)
When it hurts to share because they're bare and real (So real)
So when every day is judgement day, I won't pray (Don't pray)
When there's no one to share that empty chair, well OK (OK)

When you get to the bottom, you're near the top
The shit turns into chocolate drops
When you get to the bottom, you're near the top
The shit turns into chocolate drops
Drops
So fly (So fly)
So fly (So fly)

When your love of life is an empty beach (Don't cry)
When is painful to express the things you feel (Inside)

When you get to the bottom, you're near the top
The shit turns into chocolate drops
When you get to the bottom, you're near the top
The shit turns into chocolate drops

There is nothing in the stars if you fail to move
There is nothing in the dark, it's just some old excuse
Hanging on, let it go!

Paraguay lyrics - Iggy Pop

Wild animals they do
Never wonder why
Just do what they goddamn do
(Yeah)

Wild animals they do
Never wonder why
Just do what they goddamn do

I'm goin' where sore losers go
To hide my face and spend my dough
Though it's a dream, it's not a lie
And I won't stop to say goodbye

Paraguay
Paraguay

See I just couldn't take no more
Of whippin' fools and keepin' score
I just thought "well, fuck it man"
I'm gonna pack my soul and scram

Paraguay
Paraguay

Out of the way I'll get away
Won't have to hear the things they say
Tamales and a bank account
Are all I need, so count me out

Paraguay
Paraguay

I'll have no fear
I'll know no fear
So far from here
I'll have no fear
Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Tra-la-la-la
Tra-la-la-la
Tra-la-la-la
Tra-la-la-la

Wild animals they do
Never wonder why
Just do what they goddamn do

There's nothing awesome here
Not a damn thing
There's nothing new
Just a bunch of people scared
Everybody's fucking scared
Fear eats all the souls at once
I'm tired of it
And I dream about getting away
To a new life
Where there's not so much fucking knowledge
I don't want any of this information
I don't want YOU
No
Not anymore
I've had enough of you
Yeah, I'm talking to you
I'm gonna go to Paraguay
To live in a compound under the trees
With servants and bodyguards who love me
Free of criticism
Free of manners and mores
I wanna be your basic clod
Who made good
And went away while he could
To somewhere where people are still human beings
Where they have spirit
You take your motherfucking laptop
And just shove it into your goddamn foul mouth
And down your shit heel gizzard
You fucking phony two faced three timing piece of turd
And I hope you shit it out
With all the words in it
And I hope the security services read those words
And pick you up and flay you
For all your evil and poisonous intentions
Because I'm sick
And it's your fault
And I'm gonna go heal myself now
Yeah!

"Préliminaires" (2009)

Les Feuilles Mortes lyrics - Iggy Pop

Oh, je voudrais tant que tu te souviennes
Des jours heureux ou nous etions amis
En ce temps-la la vie etait plus belle
Et le soleil plus brulant qu'aujourd'hui

Les feuilles mortes se ramassent a la pelle
Tu vois, je n'ai pas oublie
Les feuilles mortes se ramassent a la pelle
Les souvenirs et les regrets aussi

Et le vent du nord les emporte
Dans la nuit froide de l'oubli
Tu vois, je n'ai pas oublie
La chanson que tu me chantais

C'est une chanson qui nous ressemble
Toi, tu m'aimais et je t'aimais
Et nous vivions tous les deux ensemble
Toi qui m'aimais, moi qui t'aimais

Mais la vie separe ceux qui s'aiment
Tout doucement, sans faire de bruit
Et la mer efface sur le sable
Les pas des amants desunis

I Want To Go To The Beach lyrics - Iggy Pop

I wanna go to the beach
I don't care if it's decadent
I don't know where my spirit went
But that's alright

I wanna go to the deep
'Cause there's nowhere I want to be
And nobody I want to see
But that's alright

Particles of pain in my brain
I guess they're here to stay
They work their way inside
And I can't hide or even walk away

You can convince the world
That you're some kind of superstar
When an asshole is what you are
But that's alright

Waiting, hating the shit life throws my way
Hating, waiting to make my escape

I wanna go to the beach

King Of The Dogs lyrics - Iggy Pop

I got a smelly rear, I got a dirty nose
I don't want no shoes, I don't want no clothes
I'm living like the king of the dogs

I got a piece of meat in between my teeth
I will bite your throat if you move on me
I am sovereign 'cause I'm the king of the dogs

Polite life will fill you full of cancer
I don't even own a pair of pants
I'm a dancer, baby

I'm deadly 'cause I'm the king of the dogs

I'm hanging out where the spirits dwell
I can smell the things that you cannot smell
I'm deadly, I'm the king of the dogs

Spanish Coast lyrics - Iggy Pop

Die, die, die on a Spanish coast
Die like a clown with no friend around
This used to be a Spanish town

Die, die, die on a Spanish coast
Die like a fly with no lover to sigh
On a high white box in a pile of rocks
You'll go crazy by the hazy sea

Die, die, die on a Spanish coast
Die like a love when you killed a dove
If you don't believe
Then your angels leave and you lose it
You can't use it, life

How Insensitive lyrics - Iggy Pop

How insensitive I must have seemed
When you told me that you loved me
How unmoved and cold I must have seemed
When you told me so sincerely

Why you might have asked
Did I just turn and stare away in icy silence?
What was I to do?
What can you do when a love affair is over?

Now I'm alone
And I see all the heartache in your last look
Vague and drawn and sad I see it still
All the memory of that last look

Why you might have asked
Did I just turn and went in icy silence?
What was I to do?
What can you do when a love affair is over?

Party Time lyrics - Iggy Pop

It's party time and I smell slime
You stupid people make me evil

Dicks and asses, cocktail glasses
Parlor games, exchange of fluids

'Cause it's party time, it's party time
It's party time, I got the slime

Here's a brute, isn't he cute?
He needs a hole to bury his soul in

'Cause it's party time, it's party time
It's party time, I got the slime, I got the slime

A Machine For Loving lyrics - Iggy Pop

Two weeks after my arrival Fox died just after sunset
I was stretched out on the bed when he approached
And tried painfully to jump up he wagged his tail nervously
Since the beginning he hadn't touched his bowl once
He had lost a lot of weight

I helped him to settle on my lap
For a few seconds he looked at me
With a curious mixture of exhaustion and apology
Then, calmed, he closed his eyes
Two minutes later he gave out his last breath

I buried him beside the residence
At the western extremity of the land
Surrounded by the protective fence
Next to his predecessors

During the night a rapid transport
From the Central City dropped off an identical dog
They knew the codes and how to work the barrier
I didn't have to get up to greet them

A small white and ginger mongrel
Came toward me wagging its tail
I gestured to him
He jumped on the bed and stretched out beside me

Love is simple to define
But it seldom happens in the series of beings
Through these dogs we pay homage to love
And to its possibility

What is a dog but a machine for loving
You introduce him to a human being giving him the mission to love
And however ugly, perverse, deformed or stupid this human being might be
The dog loves him, the dog loves him

"Skull Ring" (2003)

Little Electric Chair lyrics - Iggy Pop (feat. The Stooges)

You didn't mean to do it
But you did it again
The night started out
Fuckin' around with your friends
Somebody screamed and thingd went bad
Now you're standing accused
And the prosectuor says you should be dead

And they're fryin'up your hair
In that little electric chair
They'll be fryin'up your hair
In that little electric chair
They'll be fryin'up your hair
In that little electric chair
Fryin' up your hair
In that little electric chair

Electric chair
Electric chair
Electric chair

Easy street is nice in a lawless nation
The police puts some flyers in circulation
Stuck one in my door with some scary mugshot
They're looking for some bad boys
Height, weight, age, race, tatoos too

But they're fryin'up that hair
In that little electric chair
They'll be fryin'up some hair
In that little electric chair
They'll be fryin'up some hair
In that little electric chair
They'll be fryin'up that hair
In that little electric chair

Electric chair
Electric chair
Electric chair

The people are quietly lusting for blood
They wanna live in peace but they don't wanna budge
From their lazy ways and lazy notions
If the other half's win
Let' em eat pigeons
And live in prison

And they're fryin'up that hair
In that little electric chair
They'll be fryin'up some hair
In that little electric chair
They'll be fryin'up that hair
In that little electric chair
They'll be fryin'up some hair
In that little electric chair

Electric chair
Electric chair
Electric chair
Electric chair

Perverts In The Sun lyrics - Iggy Pop (feat. The Trolls)

The USA is movin' south
Our power is mostly mouth
Miami beach to Malibu
Hot weather makes'em wanna screw
Shemales, jumps bails
Weird tales on the scales
If it fails chip'n dale
Hit the gym in animal skin

Perverts in the sun
Perving everyone
Perverts in the sun
Perving everyone

Fruit punch
Go to crunch
Take a pill
Lose your will
Get a job, in street promotion
Pushing handbills on the ocean
Gang fights all night
Garbages can's got a tan
Rich men and hungry chicks
Stick'em in the blender - hey big spender !

Perverts in the sun
Perving everyone
Perverts in the sun
Perving everyone

O.J, O.J, Jose Sammy too, got nothin' to do
The realtor hit the floor
He's disgusted
Wants to get'em all busted

Perverts in the sun
Perving everyone
Perverts in the sun
Perving everyone

You guys are perverts

Perverts in the sun
Perving everyone
Perverts in the sun
Perving everyone
Perverts in the sun
Perving everyone

Skull Ring lyrics - Iggy Pop (feat. The Stooges)

Skull rings
Fast cars
Hot chicks
Money

Skull rings
Fast cars
Hot chicks
Fancy things

The touch of a hand in the wasteland
you're walking asleep and dreaming cheap
A bird's wing don't beat for free
You're freezing cold and your family

Skull rings
Fast cars
Hot chicks
Money

Skull rings
Fast cars
Hot chicks
Fancy things

Fingers on fire to do what's bad
Ring on the finger is a skull man
Strong as a bar of steel
Weakness is that you can't feel

Skull rings
Fast cars
Hot chicks
Money

Skull rings
Fast cars
Hot chicks
Fancy things

My life is dirtied, my mind is loaded
I'm feeling and breathing and fighting
To see
People get ready now
Baby come on give your heart to me

Skull rings
Fast cars
Hot chicks
Money

Skull rings
Fast cars
Hot chicks
Fancy things

Superbabe lyrics - Iggy Pop (feat. The Trolls)

I made love to a superbabe
I kinda wondered how I did
It may be pointless to describe her
But she has the power of gravity
She used a voodoo force on me

Big tits high ass
Long legs flat stomach
Helped her cover all my dreams with sleep
She's using mojo energy
Snake hips full lips
Strong things green eyes
Superbabe
White teeth fresh meat
Just like the TV
Superbabe

She's got the wild stuff
Makes love for good luck
Superbabe
Dont miss with her kiss
Won't duck from a woaaaw
Superbabe
Superbabe

I made love to a superbabe
So tell me what else could I do
Untill I couldn't do no more
Or even know what for
Forever and a day
I'm gonna jump on superbabe

Fame, drugs and money cannot save me
And evils everywhere
But here comes superbabe
She's USA prime all the way
One two three four
Who the fuck are we for
Superbabe

Five six seven eight
I can relate superbabe
Don't miss with her kiss
Won't duck from a woaaaw
Superbabe

She's got the wild stuff
Makes love for good luck
Superbabe
Superbabe
Superbabe

Fame, drugs and money cannot save me
Superbabe
Superbabe

It may be pointless to describe her
Superbabe
Superbabe

Loser lyrics - Iggy Pop (feat. The Stooges)

Allright
The feet in my boots
Are shaking their roots
For a reason
I'm looking at you
And you're too much to chew
For a reason
And the problems you got
Are the problems you got
For a reason
And what you are not
Is what you are not
For a reason

There's a decadent home
Where there should be control
I can't live anymore

There's a festering truth
Where there should be the truh
I can't live anymore

You wanna blame me
But you got misery
For a reason
And the way that you lose
Is the way that you chose
For a reason
And if this is a slam
I don't give a damn
For a reason
Cuz the point of this song
Is I'm moving along
For a reason

There's a bottomless pit
And you've got me in it
I can't live anymore
You're a tower of a cruel
And I feel a fool
I can't take it anymore

You're a loser
You're a loser
You're a loser
You're a loser
You're a loser
For a reason

You're a loser

The feet in my boots
Are shaking their roots
For a reason
For a reason
For a reason
For a reason

Private Hell lyrics - Iggy Pop (feat. Green Day)

I have a private hell
Of excellent quality
I've dwelt there for years
Playing with my fears

It's tastefull, luxurious,
And full of sexuality
And though they are tears
I controll them with my gears

Well all in all,
I must tell you,
Well I must tell you,
I'm so proud of my private hell

Anger and greed brew
And then they stamped
Till I can transmute
Them into more loot

It's tastefull, luxurious,
And full of sexuality
And though they are tears
I controll them with my gears

Well all in all,
I must tell you,
Well I must tell you,
I'm so proud of my private hell

Well all in all,
I must tell you,
Well I must tell you,
I'm so proud of my private hell

Little Know It All lyrics - Iggy Pop (feat. Sum 41)

I'm the kid that no one knows
I live a life I never chose
With these thoughts in my mind
On my own, my own

I'm face to face with the unknown
My Scary Movie will be shown
I got one evil mind
Of my own, of my own

We take from one another
And never stop to wonder
How it feels from the other side
When nothing lasts forever
When stupid turns to clever
Why are you surprised?

Little know it all (little know it all)
Ten bucks in my hand
Little know it all (little know it all)
Don't cry, I understand
So!

I'm a target of the smart
They got ambition, I got heart
I'm analyzed and tagged
Before I start

So tell me, who can I respect?
I feel the leash around my neck
As I find out there's shame
In the game (in the game)

We take from one another
And never stop to wonder
How it feels from the other side
When nothing lasts forever
When stupid turns to clever
Why are you surprised?

And I feel like.. I'm caught outside the box
And I feel like.. I'm sleeping when I'm not

[Guitarsolo] Look it's for a real thing, it's for a real thing

We take from one another
And never stop to wonder
How it feels from the other side
When nothing lasts forever
When stupid turns to clever
Why are you surprised?

Little know it all (little know it all)
Ten bucks in my hand
Little know it all (little know it all)
Don't cry, I understand

You little know it all (little know it all)
Ten bucks in my hand
Little know it all (little know it all)
Don't cry, I understand

You never know at all

Whatever lyrics - Iggy Pop (feat. The Trolls)

I'm sittin' like a stone
On a solitary evening
Without my girl
Life has no meaning
She didn't say why
And she didn't say what for
she just said "I've been thinking it over"
And whatever,
Whatever
Whatever
She doesn't want to play
And her voice just fades away
Whatever

The solution to love
I haven't found yet
Does God have curlers and a
Lairnet
Everything I say comes out
To be a no no
The feelings I had were the
Only promo
Whatever
Whatever
Whatever
She doesn't want to play
And her voice just fades away
Whatever

Now I'm just one of the Joes
On the corner
I guess I ought to stay home
And watch the porno
I wanna get close
But no one
Will let me
I wish someone would react out
A and get me
Whatever
Whatever
Whatever
She doesn't want to play
And her voice just fades
She doesn't want to play
And her face just fades
She doesn't want to play
And her touch just fades away

Whatever
Whatever
Whatever

Dead Rock Star lyrics - Iggy Pop (feat. The Stooges)

They think that I've got the bread
They want to read my head
The position show his cool
Like football star in school

Someone to sell me
Someone to tell me
I'm a dead rock star
in a dead rock car
I'm a dead rock star

I'm so afraid of failing
I hang onto the railing
This cold hard graduation
Kills all infatuation
I took the hazing
They said "amazing"
I'm a dead rock star
in a dead rock car
I'm a dead rock star

I gathered awful knowledge
You cannot get in college
Would you like Cain or Abel
I'll bring them to the table

They try to rope me
They try to grope me
I'm a dead rock star
in a dead rock car
I'm a dead rock star
What can I hope for ?
What can I hope for ?
Nothing to live for
Nothing to live for
I'm a dead rock star
in a dead rock car
I'm a dead rock star

Rock Show lyrics - Iggy Pop (feat. Peaches)

Rockshow
You came to see a rockshow
A big gigantic cock show
You came to see it all

Rock show
You came to hear it
You came to sear it
You came to do it all

If you think you're gonna
Get it for credit
Forget it
Don't bet
Call the medic
He's pathetic
He's got to let it go

Let's go
Rock show
Come on
Rock show
You came to see a rock show
This isn't a fuckin' talk show
You came to see it all

Rock show
You came to fear it
You came to sear it
You came to do it all

It's me you want for credit
Forget it
Don't panic
Call in the medic
He's pathethic
He's got to let it go

Cause if you gonna get it
For credit
Forget it
Don't bet it
Call in the medic
It's pathetic
He's gonna let it go

Let's go
Rock show
Come on
Rock show
Let's go
Rock show
Let's go
Rock show

Til Wrong Feels Right lyrics - Iggy Pop

I took a poundin'
From the radio today
I heard the radio say some piece of shit
Was it the sound of today ?

I took a bitin' 'beating'
When I saw my TV play, I saw my TV play
Over and over

And there were no escape
The box is hallow

And that riff is fucking dead,
That riff is fucking dead,
But the riff is poundin'

In my fucking head
They're gonna push it
Untill false is true
Untill day is night

They're gonna push it baby
Untill wrong feels right
Untill wrong feels right

It's a big industry
And they can beat my brain
With houses and wars and chains

They are insane
Yeah
But they can beat my brain

God and his captains
They won't pull a fucking plug
They won't pull a fucking plug
And give the skies
Back to the birds and bugs

"Beat 'Em Up" (2001)

Mask lyrics - Iggy Pop

You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You look better that way

You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You look better that way

Are you my friend?
Are you my plumber?
Are you my God?
What do you do?

Wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
Which mask are you?
Which mask are you?

Complicated, crushed up, disappointed
Squirming, angry, thrusting, stabbing, regretting, starving
Greedy human alien being, struggling down the street
Up the alley, in the elevator, through the party
To the office, in the bedroom, on your way to the morgue

Bullshitting, lying, doing a good deed or feeling loved barely possible
Aware of insatiable demands of not a society all around you
Chunky frat boys in their shorts, pimps with old Semite eyes
Sex hoochies of the jungle, sensitive smart Alec college graduates

Critics fronting franticly in New York city, every body in L.A.
Just plain licking ass or having it licked
Irony in place of balls, balls in place of brains
Brains in place of soul, where is the soul?
Where is the love, where am I?

Which mask are you?
Which mask are you?
Which mask are you?

You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
Which mask are you?

L.O.S.T. lyrics - Iggy Pop

I got my work
I got my work
The profit of doom is walking the beach
With a psychotic breakdown cardboard sign
Everything's faked and there's nothing to teach,
And there's no point in running crying

And i'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
Evil

I walk through the filthy sterile wasteland
When i'm no good they'll dump me on a scrap heap to die
Giant american tyrannosaur,
Even the animals are running away.
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
L.o.s.t. lost
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
Evil
Evil baby
I got my work
Yeah

I walk through the filthy sterile wasteland
When i'm no good they'll dump me on a scrap heap to die
Giant american tyrannosaur,
Even the animals are running away

I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost

Howl lyrics - Iggy Pop

Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowl
Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowl
...

Fuck it
I feel like howling
Got nowhere to turn
They'll kill you
For your spirit
This is what you learn

The music of tomorrow is
What you feel today
The owners of the future
Is not the one they say

A montain of faces
Is rapin' my ear
I'm glad that my pride is
Stronger than my fear

I'm howling, baby
I'm howling, baby
Howling, baby

I knew the producer
He's got lots of tricks
He is the starmaker
The bands are little pricks

The music of tomorrow is
What you feel today
The owners of the future
Is not the one they say

A montain of faces
Is rapin' my ear
I'm glad that my pride is
Stronger than my fear

I'm howling, baby
I'm howling, baby
I'm howling, baby
I'm howling, baby
Howling, baby
Howling, baby
Howling, baby
Howling, baby
I'm howling, baby

Football lyrics - Iggy Pop

I'm a football baby,
Rollin' round the field.
I've been passed and fumbled,
Till I don't know what I feel.
Everybody's the same,
They're all footballs too.
Setting up the big play
And trying to score.

I'm a football baby
In a football game
I'm a football baby
Run-kick

Life's a football game,
As every chump and champ knows.
We don't touch, we collide,
Till we're worn out inside.
We're kicking each other,
Right where it hurts,
Setting up the big play,
And trying to score.

I'm a football baby,
In a football game
I'm a football baby,
I'm a football baby,
In a football game
I'm a football baby,
Block-pass
I'm a football baby,
In a football game
I'm a football baby,
Run-kick-hit-goal .

Savior lyrics - Iggy Pop

If The saviour came again today,
Would you like him or turn him away,
Would he have a girlfriend with a thong,
Or a boy group singing dumbass songs.
Would he be a rapper with a gun,
Or a bugger building steel buns.
If the saviour was crucified to lose
What's the difference?

Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here

Watch me walk on water
Watch me walk on water
Watch me walk on water
Before they...
Put me in a box

We Should have never
Gotten another break,
Praying is an art for it's own sake,
Would he have a pair of Gucci shoes...
With a pitbull

Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here

Watch me walk on water
Watch me walk away on water
Watch me walk on water

Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here

Watch me walk on water
Watch me walk away on water
Watch me walk on water

Talking Snake lyrics - Iggy Pop

Look what you have done,
Ruined every single one.
See what fools they are,
Jealous of a simple star.
Feel the 4 winds blow,
Let the sword hang low (baby)

Life's to take,
Says the talking snake,
Everybody should be happy
Life's to take,
Says the talking snake,
Everybody should be happy

To tell the sucking truth,
Everybody's dreams get used.
Twist me till i drip,
Liquid of emotions ripped.
Every hungry soul,
Hides a hungry fool (baby)

Life's to take,
Says the talking snake,
Everybody should be happy
Life's to take,
Says the talking snake,
Everybody should be happy

Feel the 4 winds blow,
Let the sword hang low (baby)

Life's to take,
Says the talking snake,
Everybody should be happy
Life's to take,
Says the talking snake,
Everybody should be happy
Should be happy
Should be happy

The Jerk lyrics - Iggy Pop

Look, here comes the jerk!

See the guy with the fakey smile,
Talkin' to my girl in a friendly style.
He thinks he's quite the flirt,
She'd suck a rats' dick before she'd fuck
Him his brain is full of dirt,
That's why the guy's a jerk,
His balls are gonna burst,
Thats why the guy's a jerk

Oh man you're killin' me!
Hey man your killin me!

He hangs out by the ladies room,
His pick up line is like the voice of doom.
"Hey baby do ya wanna go out with me,
and by the way I make a lotta money."
His method just don't work,
That's why the guy's a jerk.
By the office Johnny lurks,
That's why the guy's a jerk

Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk

Oh man you're killin' me!
Hey man your killin me!
look here comes the jerk
look here comes the jerk
look here comes the jerk
look here comes the jerk

Him his brain is full of dirt,
That's why the guy's a jerk,
His balls are gonna burst,
That's why the guy's a jerk

Oh man you're killin' me!
Hey man your killin me!

Death Is Certain lyrics - Iggy Pop

Death is the best
Better than all the rest
On the dutifull lies in the rock paradise
Losses and wear and the texture of age
Adds a truth to the heart
And a light to the face
It's good when you don't give as
Much of a fuck
As you did when the threats mount
To make you suck

A burst of rage
A lively cry
Emotions wide
Your death is certain for sure
My death is certain alright
But death is certain no cure
'Cause death is certain
'Cause death is certain so why?
Gotta diiiiiiiiie

A bone and a skull
In a conjugal hell
A mall full of gall
And the music jerks off
Pale and fate
At the table they sat
With their necks choking tight
In their collars dead white
Liquor and food 'till
They spin and explode
In a shower of crap
In America's lap

A pliceman's numb
A lazy bum
Emotions come
'Cause death is certain it's sure
'Cause death is certain it's pure
'Cause death is certain no cure
'Cause death is certain
'Cause death is certain that's why
Gotta die

Alright
Alright
Well, alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
Alright

A beast with legs
A kid who's numb
A lazy bum
Your death is certain it's sure
'Cause death is certain it's pure
'Cause death is certain no cure
'Cause death is certain

Go For The Throat lyrics - Iggy Pop

I was lying in a coma
By the side of some damn road
My fucking heart was pounding
Like I thought it would explode
I had no protection
No familly
No friends
I had nothing really
But a will to make this end
Go for the throat
Go for the throat
Go for the throat
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
I'm so fucked'up

It isn't very nice
What I do to make end's meet
It isn't very pretty when you hate
The folks you meet
It's a shame to feel hurt and angry everyday
It's a shame to take it out
On whoever's in the way
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Man I'm so fucked'up
I'm fucked'up
I'm fucked'up
I'm fucked'up
I'm fucked'up
Man I'm so fucked'up

Poor little girl
I hurt her really bad
I haven't been the same since I lost my mom and dad
Where is the justice?
Well I really don't know
When everybody is singing
Like a fucking so and so
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Yeah I'm so fucked'up
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

They took away my freedom
They took away my games
They took away my innocence
And gave me shitty fame
There's nothing left to stop me
There's nothing left to feel
There's nothing left inside me
But a low down dirty deal
Go for the throat
Go for the throat
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up baby
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up baby
I'm so fucked'up baby
I'm so fucked'up
Oh I'm fucked'up
I'm so fucked'up
Oh I'm fucked'up
I'm so fucked'up
Oh I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat

Weasels lyrics - Iggy Pop

Weasels

Weasels are runnin me to death,
I checked my gas there ain't much left.
Still i will take a parting shot,
Before I leave myself to rot.

Barbaric motherfucking weasels

Weasels
Weasels

Weasels have always been my friends,
I've turned them loose now there's no end.
Giants of rock tell giant lies,
Weasels control the evil skies.
Barbaric motherfucking weasels,
Bad breath bad taste cause of deseases.

I feel disgrace and I feel shame,
I feel anger and I feel blame,
I feel suspicion and I feel pride,
I feel weasels on all sides.

Weasels
Weasels
Weasels
Weasels
Weasels

With guitars on t.v,
Weasels
Rewriting rock history,
Weasels
With an office and a chair,
Weasels
With nice butts and long silky hair.

Weasels suck and weasels blow,
Weasels control rock and roll
Weasels control rock and roll
Weasels control rock and roll
Weasels control rock and roll
Rock and roll
Rock and roll
Rock and roll

Weasels
