Perforation Problems lyrics - Iggy Pop

I got a secret you can live and learn
i got a secret you can live and learn
you don 't know me but i burn
you don 't know me but i burn
deep in your gut you know
the right way out
deep in your gut you know
not like those guys who mess around
not like thove guys who fake it, now
perforation problems not all right
hangin on a needle out of spite
perforation problems no one home
stumblin like a dirty slave
in anger
i got a worm down in my troubled soul
i got a worm down in my troubled soul
now i 'm all right but there's still holes
now i 'm all right but there's still holes
everytime i think it was my last
everytime i hoped it was my last
i watched my future become my past
i watched my future become my past
perforation problems not all right
hangin on a needle outta fright
perforation problems no one home
stumblin like a dirty slave
in anger
i still get angry when i look back
i still get angry when i look back
when i look ahead my bags are packed
perforation problems not all right
hangin on a needle out of fright
perforation problems no one home
stumblin like a dirty slave

perforation problems not all right
perforation problems every night
perforation problems no one home
stumblin like a dirty slave
perforation problems
fright

Social Life Lyrics - Iggy Pop

Nervous you need a drink
tired you need a lift
you feel on the brink
maybe you need new tits

vulnerable as a ship
but you re not on the sea
can you talk to anyone here?
no, not really

and the crowd stays on your back
and the girls are all s0 stacked
and the stress it lines your face
and you realy need a place

its just that social life
its got you on the run
that goddamn social life
it's torture dressed as fun
it's just that social life
they got you seein things
that goddamn social life
and now you re chasin strings
that goddamn social life

god-awful art and clothes
plenty of money, though
you guess it must be worth somethin
what that would be you don' t know
in your imagination
there's a face of love

someone who will come along
instead of comin on

anp the forces ebb and flow
and the money goes and goes
and something makes you
want to throw a brick
through the window

it's iust that social life
it's got you on the run
that goddamn social life
it's torture dressed as fun
it's iust that social life
they got you chasin strings
that goddamn social life
and you are seeing things

"Brick By Brick" (1990)

Home lyrics - Iggy Pop

I work so hard, so don't trip me up
Shakin' a leg like the tail o' the pup
I'm payin' dues till I register heat
Sure hope I don't end up on the street

Home, boy
Home, boy
Everybody needs a home
Home, boy
Home, boy
Everybody needs a home

So many people rise and fall
Who's lookin' after you at all?
Nobody knows anybody at all
Strangers in paradise down at the mall

Home, boy
Home, boy
Everybody needs a home
Home, boy
Home, boy
Everybody needs a home

The life we live is tricky tricky
I love my home, and my family
Who's gonna love you when the
Mountain gets steep?
We're gonna make it-in a Jeep

Main Street Eyes lyrics - Iggy Pop

This whole country is scared of failure.
My head keeps trying to sell me ambition.
But in my heart, I want self-respect.
There's a conflict.

Boy, I feel so outgunned today
But I'll get up and fight back, anyway
You and I aare not huge mainstream stars
But unlike them, we're really what we are

We got Main Street eyes
Watchin' as the big boys roll by
Under rotten television skies
We got Main Street eyes

I saw a kitten squashed in the street
I read about a plastic surgeon and his art collection.

We are played for suckers all the time
Phony rock and roll
It's a crime
I don't want to dip myself in trash
I don't want to give myself for cash

We got Main Street eyes
Tryin' to do what's decent with our lives
Under funny television skies
We got Main Street eyes

Walkin' around sometimes
I see a tension under the surface
People are just about ready to explode.

So hold me, and trust me
I love you, don't worry.
Keep your Main Street eyes
Keep your Main Street eyes
Keep your Main Street eyes
Eyes
Eyes

I Won't Crap Out lyrics - Iggy Pop

I'm standin' in a shadow, hating the world
I keep a wall around me, block out the herd
It's a nerve-wreck placeto be, it kills real
Quick
You gotta scrape the concrete off your dick
But we're gonna live so happily
In a faraway place, just you and me
If I don't crap out
The sun will shine and give us a hug
The world will sing like a happy bug
If I don't crap out
No and I won't crap out
I won't crap out

I'm glad I am crazy, it keeps me trying
I despise the trendies, I know
They're lying
If you want to stir up real mud
You had better pay with real blood
BUt the birds will sing a sweet melody
In a couple of green indifferent trees
If I don't crap out
And you're gonna know how fine you are
Gonna write your name on a violet star
If I don't crap out
We'll have a window and we'll have a door
And a reason to be living for
If I don't crap out
And the material singers will fade into dust
Like forgotten merchants of disgust
If I don't crap out
No I won't crap out
No I'll never crap out
Oh I won't crap out
I won't crap out

Candy lyrics - Iggy Pop

It's a rainy afternoon
In 1990
The big city geez it's been 20 years-
Candy-you were so fine

Beautiful beautiful
Girl from the north
You burned my heart
With a flickering torch
I had a dream that no one else could see
You gave me love for free

candy, candy , Candy I can't let you go
All my life you're haunting me
I loved you so

Candy, candy , Candy I can't let you go
Life is crazy
Candy baby

Yeah, well it hurt me real bad when you left
I'm glad you got out
But I miss you
I've had a hole in my heart
For so long
I've learned to fake it and
Just smile along

Down on the street
Those men are all the same
I need a love
Not games
Not games


Candy, Candy, Candy I can't let you go
All my life you're haunting me
I loved you so
Candy, Candy , Candy I can't let you go
Life is crazy
I Know baby
Candy baby

UOU UOU UOU
Candy, Candy, Candy I can't let you go
All my life you're haunting me
I loved you so

CANDY CANDY CANDY
life is crazy
candy baby

candy baby,
candy, candy

Butt Town lyrics - Iggy Pop

The cops are well-groomed, with
Muscled physiques in Butt Town
Their tan uniforms are tailored in chic
In Butt Town
Any young Black male who walks down the street
Is gonna get stopped by a car full of meat
BUt the girl with the hair
Flies by in her underwear-

She's done nothing so far to deserve that car
When you live in Butt Town
You gotta get down
But in Butt Town I'm learnin'
In Butt Town I'm earnin'
In Butt Town I'm turnin'
Into my worst nightmare

I'm tellin' you, it's a motley crew in Butt Town
Monday you're new, and Friday you're through
In Butt Town
The producer is wily, and owns what he sells
The talent is eager to go straight to hell
Th tits are amazing, and everyone's gazing
At some body part-
That's the nature of art in Butt Town

All over Butt Town dreams have a show down
All over Butt Town values are thrown down
But in Butt Town I'm learnin'
In Butt Town I'm earnin'
In Butt Town I'm turnin'
Into my worst nightmare

In Butt Town baby
I'm gonna be a star
I'm gonna shake my butt far
Now here we go
I'm gonna shake my butt
Shake my butt shake my butt
In Butt Town

The Undefeated lyrics - Iggy Pop

I was gently raised
Fussed over r in school
Fed and housed and entertained
Wanting to be cool
Summers in the grass
Winters warm and slow
Until the one thing on my mind was to just
Get up and go

We're the undefeated
We got what they want
We're so bored and spoiled
Life is just a bag of pot
We're the undefeated
TV in the shade
Girls at all our parties
We have really got it made

There's a real mean world outside
Where many lives are lost
But struggle builds character
And we are growing soft
I don't want to sit and watch no TV show
I want to roam and be challenged
I want to grow and grow

We're the undefeated
We got what they want
We're so fucking spoiled
Life is just a bag of pot
We're the undefeated
TV in the shade
Girls at all our parties
We have really got it made
What have we made?
A giant jail
A bunch of walls
That's all that we've made
Oh, my

We're the undefeated we got what they want
We're so bored and spoiled life is just a bag of pot
We're the undefeated we got what they want
We're so bored and spoiled life is just a bag of pot

We're the undefeated
Always undefeated
We're the undefeated
We're the undefeated,
Now

Moonlight Lady lyrics - Iggy Pop

Who's gonna tell you goodnight?
Who's gonna put out the light?
I love you and love is almost crazy
Slippin' through the so and so's
Over all the fields we go
Moonlight lady

Don't wanna tell you so long
Don't wanna mess up your song
Feelin' like I do I'm almost crazy
Choosin' all the red blue jeans
Watchin' people be so mean
Moonlight lady

I'm on fire
And I can hardly breathe
Time goes by
And all alone
My poor heart grieves

I love you just 'cause I do
I didn't plan it with you
BUt now we're here we might as well accept it
We're together for all time
Marching through the fields of dimes
Moonlight lady

Something Wild lyrics - Iggy Pop

Sometims I don't even move a muscle
Baby while you lie awake all night
I think I've got 9 lives in these corpuscles
Girl, you know sometimes I don't think right

I hear voices in the hall
I wake up and it's nothing at all
A hungry wolf-an angry child
Or something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild

It's not as if we could think that things
Was one way
Or they would all just be that way right now
When I was a kid I thought that some day
I could tame this lion heart some
Way, some how

Now I'm hungry for the love
That doesn't know what it's thinking of
Searching for the meek and mild
Like something wild
Something wild
Something wild
Something wild

There's a hole where the wind blows through
And some curtains too
But I can't hide a thing from you-
You know where I'm comin' from
Well I tried gettin' there under my own steam
But my very last chance was shot
Now you're ridin' me down like a submarine
I can feel you in my veins, runnin' hot
I went out and stole a new pair of shoes
Some pocket money and a place to go
Now we gotta get up and scream at the
Top of our lungs like it was gonna die
If we didn't make it so
I hear voices in the hall
I wake up and it's nothing at all
A hungry wolf-an angry child
Something wild

Neon Forest lyrics - Iggy Pop

I'm sliding like a lizard on my belly and back
It's a miracle I haven't fallen through any cracks
The life on display is trouble for sure
The drugs that I took have made me impure

The neon forest is lighting up
The neon forest is lighting up
My brain

I've learned some nasty lessons so I'm shutting
My mouth
A fury in my gut is spinning me round
and round
To be a total phony is the winning design
When the fabric of life is a horny goldmine

The neon forest is my home
And like a cartoon cat I roam
Where only kids are still alive
And anyway they're gonna fry
My brain

You can get a weird prize for being adored
You can join the "in crowd" for being a whore
Although you are lonely you wish for a fence
America takes drugs in psychic defense
You can say what you want but nobody's there
Have you got any money?
Are you anybody?

Starry Night lyrics - Iggy Pop

Stars in the sky
I like them better than you
Stars in the sky
They tell me what to do
I don't care about your city
Or your fat income
I don't care about your Vanity Fair
Or your fucking sitcom

Starry night
Starry night
That starry night

Makes me feel alright
I heard a lotta mean talkin'
I met a lotta tough guys-they all look
Pretty ugly under the stars
Go out to the desert
And just look up
You can feel yourself
Under the stars
All man's buildings
Will soon be gone
'Cause something here
Is absolutely wrong

Starry night
Starry night
That starry night

Makes me feel alright
Like a human being
Take your building and your income and
Shove it up your ass-
Take your building and your income and stuff
It with your cash-
I heard a lotta big talk-met a lotta tough guys-
That shit looks ugly under a starry night-
Which country is the strongest?
Who plays the best guitar?
Who fucking cares
Under the stars

Pussy Power lyrics - Iggy Pop

An evil shadow across my brain
A certain buring that makes me insane
She's on my beam oh no she's in my room
She's al around me now and I'm a tool

Pussy power
Pussy power
Pussy power
Pussy power

She wears a raincoat in the sun all day
She says she wants to have some fun, well, hey
She calls me over on the sidewalk
She's got a joint, she's got a cute walk

Pussy power
Pussy power
Pussy power
Pussy power

Pussy power-hour by hour
Pussy power oh what a flower
I want to hold her close to me
'Cause pussy power's pulling me
Down
Down
Down
Down

When it's there and I can't have it
I get real real rabid
I've got to figure out a way
I'm so pent-up, like this I can't stay
I've got to look this in the eye
I'm much too crazed, I'm much too shy
But all in all, at least I am I
Oh my oh my oh my oh my

Pussy power
Pussy power
Pussy power
Pussy power

My Baby Wants to Rock and Roll lyrics - Iggy Pop

My baby wants to rock and roll
She likes pictures and thoughts control
she's shoppin' wild and she's comin' down
Superman couldn't turn her around

she wants ta rock rock rock
Rock rock and roll
Rock it on down till she cures her soul
She wants ta rock her way right outta the hole
She wants to rock and rock and roll

She wants information and she wants it raw
She don't believe the way they lay things out
She's gotta try it till she's too fucked up
I was the same way once myself
I hadda rock...

Goin' down those empty streets
You know what other guy's got all the money
He doesn't deserve it-screw him-rock and roll

Car crash on the grey highway
Bodies murmur under blankets
The party's in full swing
The boys are high and ready for fucking new blood
Boddies are needed constantly
Escapees from all history
Voyagers in tehe animal state-whoops!-
Here come the assholes they can smell the money-
The meanest little bitch in 13 states-
She's what God creates-
...Rock and roll...

Nobody knows if she'll live or die
He wishes he was the cute one
But he's just the big one
He needs to rock and roll

Brick By Brick lyrics - Iggy Pop

People are so sad and I know why
With no chance to live before you die
You get pretty sick if you hafta
Keep it inside

I wanna build a house where an ad don't scream
I wanna live in peace-quietly
I wanna have a place of love and safety
People oughta live how and where they want
People oughta have respect in front
People oughta get along pretty O.K.

So get off my dick
I'm building it brick by brick
Brick by brick

I'm building a house where I can think
And have some balance and dignity
I'm building a house where no one can hurt me
I'm huilding a house where the weak are strong
I'm building a house with a real song
I'm using faith that is immortal
I'm building it with simplicity
and the way that we feel, you and me
I'm buidling it with what I believe in

So get off my dick
I'm building it brick by brick
Brick by brick

Now I'm looking at just a little time
So be it-I want to
Be true to my simple heart
And not put nothing else above it
Brick by brick
Brick by brick
Brick by brick
Brick by brick
Brick by brick by brick

"Instinct" (1988)

Cold Metal lyrics - Iggy Pop

Uh
I played tag in the auto graveyard
I looked up at the radio tower
Rag tent by the railroad tracks
Concrete poured over steel bridge
Pondered my fate
While they built the interstate

I'm a product of America
From the morgue to the prisons
Cold metal, when I start my band
Cold metal, in my garbage can
Cold metal, gets in my blood
And my attitude

Yeah, a huh

Threw my hide in an automobile
Heard a song called "Drive the wheel"
Truckers, trailers, tractors caught me workin'

This is the song of my heritage
From the bad to the Buddha
Cold metal, that's what it be
Cold metal, from sea to sea
Cold metal, it's how we win
And also how we sin
How we sin, how we sin, how we sin, how we sin

Cold metal, in the afternoon
Sounds lovely like a Hendrix tune
Cold metal, it's the father of beat
The mother of the street
Cold metal, it rolls on by
Cold metal, gonna raise it high
Cold metal, it'll even fly
Rust buckets in the sky
Cold metal, got to be
Skeleton of the free
Cold metal, it's gotta be
Better save a tree
Save a tree, save a tree, save a tree, save a tree
Yeah

High On You lyrics High On You lyrics

I like your wooden door, baby
I never want to leave, baby
If I could rule the night, baby
I'd turn it into white
There wouldn't ?

I'm getting high on you
I'm getting high on you
I'm getting high on you
High on you

I like your rugged cross, baby
I don't pray in churches, baby
I got nowhere to worship, baby
Because it isn't him
I don't need a ? man

I'm getting high on you
I'm getting high on you
I'm getting high on you
High on you

Terrorist in my heart
Tearin' it all apart
Terrorist in my heart
Tearin' it all apart

I love the way you feel, baby
The mornin' startin' drunk, baby
Drinking of your soul, baby
And everything I know
Digs the way your body glows

I'm getting high on you
I'm getting high on you
I'm getting high on you
High on you

I'm getting high on you
I'm getting high on you
I'm getting high on you
I'm getting high

Corrupting in the air
I really need you
You got two play rides
I really love them
My we're getting high
Are we getting high

Strong Girl lyrics - Iggy Pop

I need a strong girl
Cause war's where I'm going
I need a war girl
Who wants to show 'em

Good people want to be
Really what they are
But if you try, you will fry
Plenty before catching fire

I need a strong girl
Who works on tension
I need a gendarme
Cause I'm after ascension

When the guns raise, hit my back
On a naked day
I know I will testify
No matter what I have to say

Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Strong girl, she's like a ocean

I need an eagle
To be my scanner
Cause a liar
Can look like a winner

All the animals
Are running with the pack
I'm outside, tell you why
I don't wanna fight 'em back

Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Strong girl, she's like an ocean
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Strong girl, she's like an ocean
Yeah

Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Strong girl, she's like an ocean
Strong girl, she's like an ocean
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Strong girl, strong girl

Tom Tom lyrics - Iggy Pop

Hey little one
You've got the way
I ain't doing nothin'
That's so important

I'd like to know how you deal
Oh when I worry to darken
If I can't get in your show
I'll take my tom tom and go
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

While you were mine
I got so hazy
While you passed by
I found my answer

Is this the best thing in life
The only thing I remember
If I can't get in your show
I'll take my tom tom and go

Pure love, sunshine
Our love is always fine
We are related, you know
I'll take my tom tom and go
We are related, you know
I'll take my tom tom and go
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

The sky is angry
Over this city
Birds fly like devils
Over this city

So many things of no worth
Are being shoved in my face
When all the wealth in the world
May work the faith in one girl

That's why I'm sad to say
Till there can be no hate, oh
The only one they come through
Is absolute
YOU

Easy Rider lyrics - Iggy Pop


In the alley where have I grown
Hot night sweats our clothes
My hell is crackin' fire
That's what you inspire
Cruel highway entrance signs
People driving to their lives
Looks like a giant stream
But it's just a dream

Easy rider, easy rider
Easy rider, easy rider

Broken people all around
Old guarantees that pull you down
You need a way out, you need a ride
Cause where you are is suicide

Easy rider, easy rider
Easy rider, easy rider

Oh I see the sacred dreams
And if I'm no ?
I'll feel real ?
Tearing out my hair
I see fertility
In pretty girls I meet
I love my friend
Give me hands ?

Highway in the sun
We listen to the engines run
I wanna fine myself in you
You wanna find yourself, too

Easy rider, easy rider
Easy rider, easy rider
Easy rider, easy rider
Easy rider, easy rider

Power & Freedom lyrics - Iggy Pop

All my life I've been polite but
I'm afraid it's ?
I'm a man I know what I want
Gonna take some nerve to get it
When you feel alone and damned
Like you're living in your hell
You want power, you want freedom

I wanna tell that girl my story
Cause baby you might like my story
When you feel all cut off
And nobody gives you talk
You want power, you want freedom

The loneliness will craze you
Nobody cool will save you
And the system's built to waste you
You want power, freedom

One by one the lives turn over
If you don't jump your life is over
Guess now all that matters
When your spirit's getting flattened
You need power, freedom

The lineliness will craze you
And no one cool will save you
And the system wants to slave you
You want power, freedom

When you feel alone and damned
Like you're living in your hell
When you're feeling all cut off
Nobody gives you talk

And no one cool will save you
The system's built to waste you
The loneliness will craze you
Craze you, craze you, craze you

Lowdown lyrics - Iggy Pop

I don't want to throw away my time
Playing games I don't respect or like
I can't give away my sovereignty
To existence with no song of me

And the hole in my heart
I'm lowdown
There's a hole in my heart
I'm low
There's a hole in my heart
I'm lowdown
There's a hole in my heart
I'm low

I built myself a beautiful brick wall
Gets a little higher every day
? ignorance inhabits me
Cause I've already chased my love away

And the hole in my heart
I'm lowdown
There's a hole in my heart
I'm low
There's a hole in my heart
I'm lowdown
There's a hole in my heart
I'm low

Take that happy banner off the wall
I don't need to see no smiling face
All I really want's a cup of tea
To feel a warmth inside of me

And the hole in my heart
I'm lowdown
There's a hole in my heart
I'm low
There's a hole in my heart
I'm lowdown
There's a hole in my heart
I'm low

There's a hole in my heart
I'm lowdown
There's a hole in my heart
I'm low
There's a hole in my heart
I'm lowdown
There's a hole in my heart
I'm low

Instinct lyrics - Iggy Pop

Standing on the borderline
Between joy and reason
Tending carefully my fire
Waiting for my season
I know who these people are
I know what they stand for
Corruption's built into this plan
Nothing's under the other hand

Tricks and trials await the child

Instinct keeps me running
Running like a deer
Instinct keeps me running
Running through the grinning shadows

I have seen the sludgy beach
And the poisoned river
I have met the lordly rich
They're just getting stiffer
This whole place is like a maze
Or like some Medusa
Let me out I can't accept
A certain read life story

Tricks and trials await the child

Instinct keeps me running
Running like a deer
Instinct keeps me running
Running where the sorrow bless me
Instinct keeps me running
Running like a moose
Instinct keeps me running
Running to keep one chance open

Marks on walls, the common outlet
Tell the truth and always will
Marks on wall destroy the thought
Of perfect sunny civilization

Tricks and trials await the child

Instinct keeps me running
Running like a deer
Instinct keeps me running
Running through the grinning shadows
Instinct keeps me running
Running like a bear
Instinct keeps me running
Running to keep one chance open
Instinct keeps me running
Running cause I don't believe it
Instinct keeps me running
Running through the bare emotion
Instinct keeps me running
Instinct keeps me running
Running
I'm running, running, running, running

Tuff Baby lyrics - Iggy Pop

Psst, psst, hey girl
Just come here, come on, come here

I love your hair
Your pearly smile
Your icing scan
Society's vile
Insect cars
Horny men from Mars
I love you, tuff baby
I love you, tuff baby

You've know the score
For a while now
Your dad don't care
Your mom's aware
Your hands are new
I wonder what they'll do
I love you, tuff baby
I love you, tuff baby

There's chaos in the old suburbs
And downtown too they got the blues
But you'll survive
With a hard glint in your eyes
I love you, tuff baby
I love you, tuff baby
I love you
I love you, tuff baby
I love you, tuff baby
I love you, tuff baby

Squarehead lyrics - Iggy Pop


You can kick me out of a real good jive
You can use my friendship like a doorknob
You can make me super styrofoam
You can make me feel all alone
You can stuff hamburger in my head
But I ain't gonna be no squarehead

You can tempt me with a pretty girl
You can call on me in fancy fur
You can say, "Just do it, everyone is"
You can tell me that it's just showbiz
You can turn my life from green to red
But I ain't gonna be no squarehead

You can burn my bridges down for laughin', ha ha ha ha
You can call me a fool for crashin', woh
You can make me stare down at the floor
You can make me listen while you snore
You can do all these things that I have said
But I ain't gonna be no squarehead
Let's go!

You can make my position low as a dog
You can trick me with your social fog
You can criticize my very bag
You can call my treasures a heap of slag
But you might as well eat lunch instead
Cause I ain't gonna be no squarehead
I ain't gonna be no squarehead
I ain't gonna be no squarehead
I ain't gonna be no squarehead
No, I ain't gonna be no squarehead
No, I ain't gonna be no squarehead
No, I ain't gonna be no squarehead
No, I ain't gonna be no squarehead
I ain't gonna be no
I ain't gonna be no

"Blah-Blah-Blah" (1986)

Real Wild Child lyrics - Iggy Pop

Well I'm just outa school

Gotta dance like a fool
Got the message that I gotta be
A wild one
Ooh yeah I'm a wild one

Baby, It Can't Fall lyrics - Iggy Pop

You have loved me with energy
Backed up with hard work and guts
We inhabit eternity
We fly forever in space

The way we run together
The way we breeze the miles
We put our heads together
And laughingly we smile

It can't fall
It can't fall
Baby, it can't fall
Death means nothing at all

It can't fall
It can't fall
Baby, it can't fall
Our love will outlive this earth

Words have so many meanings
Sometimes mean nothing at all
Sometimes I feel so simple
I don't know what's coming next

We have swum in the ocean
And that was really alright
I'm not a big man
It's hard to face the world

It can't fall
It can't fall
Baby, it can't fall

That would nail me to the wall

It can't fall
It can't fall
Baby it can't fall
Our love will outlive this earth

It can't fall

Shades lyrics - Iggy Pop

You gave me a present
The paper was blue and green
I unwrapped it with pleasure
These are the best shades I've ever seen
You can be my girlfriend
Forever and a day
I never thought I was worth much
Or that anyone would treat me this way

[Chorus]
I'm not
The kind of guy
Who dresses like a king
And a really fine pair of shades
Means everything
And the light that blinds my eyes
Shines from you
It makes me come in the night
It makes me swim with delight
I like this pain
I like this mirror
I like these shades

I could have had a problem
I might have never followed through
The other guys are in trouble
They wouldn't listen to a girl like you
These shades say something
I'll bet they cost a lot
I hope I don't break 'em
I hope we don't break up

[Chorus]

Fire Girl lyrics - Iggy pop

I loved you when
It was alright
I'll love you when
It all goes wrong
I love you when
My eyes are open
I'll love you when
My eyes are gone
Fire girl-say you will

I have no time
To watch TV
Yours is the face
That interests me
I loved you when
You lost your raincoat
I'll love you when
You lose your fear
Fire girl-say you will

Pockets full of rain
Bewildered by this change
Underneath the sky
I just want to fly
Fire girl-say you will

I'm so lonely
So just do it
Say you will
I got a pocket full of rain

Isolation lyrics - Iggy Pop

Needed you, you were only using
Needing you just tore me down
And here I stand in isolation
feeling emptiness and doubt
walking down the broken highway
sucking sugar plain and sweet
did your mother ever tell you
that the joyful are free

I need some lovin'
like an inmate needs a dime
I need some lovin'
like a poet needs a rhyme
here i stand in isolation
my empty hands in isolation
walking down the broken highway
sucking sugar cause it's my way

find me one heart to complete with
heading for the farthest reaches
I need some lovin'
like a body needs a soul
I need some lovin'
like a fastball needs control
here i stand in isolation
my empty hands in isolation
strike up the band
in this proud land

got a lot to do
got a lot to say
got a life to live
here I stand-
in isolation

Cry For Love lyrics - Iggy Pop

Status seekers - I never cared
once I found out they never dared
to seize the world and shake it upside down
and every stinking bum should wear a crown

Sayin' I cry for love
till all the plates are broken
cry for love
until my eyes are soakin'
yeah cry for love
on every salmon mornig
cry for love
'cause imitation's boring
cry for love

bad tv that insults me freely
still i know what I'm dyin' to see
in searching for a meaningful embrace
sometimes my self-respect took second place

an' I cried for love
i did what my heart told me
cried for love
can't stand it
when they scold me
yeah i cried for love
on every salmon morning
yeah i cry for love
'cause imitation's boring
cry for love

Surfers ride for love and wipe out when it hits 'em
soldiers kill for love and nobody admits it
if you're cryin' for love well, that's ok don't sweat it
if you're cryin' for love then there's still a chance you'll get it
cry for love

Blah-Blah-Blah lyrics - Iggy Pop

Hideaway lyrics - Iggy Pop

I need to touch
a live unbeaten earth
so that's where i'm going
I know a town in N.W. Mexico
where the sun is gold and life exists
hideaway hideaway truly
hideaway hideaway truly

My country got
raped by big industry
we'll just have to wing it
the concrete strips raw greed and king tv
they say 'so what' i say 'so this'
hideaway hideaway truly
hideaway hideaway truly

I can hear children voices playing in a yard
when i hear children voices my feelings aren't so hard

Your honest face
your quiet simple grace
you are one thing
I will not waste
hideaway hideaway truly
hideaway hideaway truly

Winners & Losers lyrics - Iggy Pop

Winners and losers which one am I,
is it the same under the sky?
black motorcycles and the will to survive
losers and winners low and high
in this glass and wire world
surely leeches gain the right
to send their message screaming
one that has no meaning
to people who feel

questions and questions plain as your nose
but who would believe a little rose?
winners and losers in love with themselves
no santa claus no happy elves
in this smoking gun existence
it gets harder to unwind
i'll just eat my breakfast
try to keep my questions
starving all night

out in the suburbs i met
my true fine love
down in the suburbs i met
my true fine love
she gave me money
she gave me head
she gave my everything
and then she went dead

stick out your thumb
and hit the open road
cat in a mercedes
goes by, he's old
he's got some, you got none
together maybe you can have
some fun-winners and losers
gentlemen boozers
winners and losers

roll roll roll roll
roll your money down
rock rock rock rock
takln' over this town

Little Miss Emperor lyrics - Iggy Pop

you're not giving an inch you're not strung like wire your open arms they flinch joan crawford style treated like a towel inside you howl on some dark concrete midnight street you've built an altar that's quite complete your self control is damned amazing you're trying hard and i want you little miss emperor you really want to grow and you're alert, i know but babies mostly drown it's a company town cheat gods and joke attack your noble ghost i saw the best minds of my generation learn how to crawl across our nation conformity falls like one wet blanket look how we live and i want you little miss emperor little miss emperor trying to open doors

"Zombie Birdhouse" (1982)

Run Like A Villain lyrics - Iggy Pop

Big dick is a thumbs-up guy
He shot a missile in the sky
It functioned just as advertised
Until the fire made him cry
Look into it later
When the dust is clearing off the crater

Run like a villain let the good times roll
Run like a villain to the sugar bowl
Run like a villain cause you can't adjust
To a saccharine suburb in the mush

I've got some loving arms around me
Darker than the tombs of egypt,
Dumber than the crudest fiction,
Buried in a melting coffin
Nights like this appeal to me!
Tracy got an afghan, pedigreed,
Prescription shades and designer jeans
A sony walkman on her head
All she wants is to be fed
Run, run, run, cause you're soft
Run, run, but don't get lost
The shining moon the dead oak tree
Nights like this appeal to me
I've got some loving arms around me
The shining moon the dead oak tree
Nights like this appeal to me
I've got some loving arms around me
Trying to steal a moment of pleasantry
In this zzzzzombieee birdhouse
Run, run, run run like a villain
Let the good times roll
Run like a villain to save your soul
It can't be done I already know
So I'll run like a villain to the sugar bowl
Cause who you are nobody knows
Who you are nobody knows
You rings on your fingers
And bells on your toes

The Villagers lyrics - Iggy Pop

The villagers are out tonight
Uptight and bored
They're pushing you
Underground
On wintry days they stand and gaze
Outlined in black and ignorant
Villagers
Dark shadows house a sleepy malice
In the backbrain
Of every body you meet
Man is the village animal
United by the glue
Of our loathsome qualities
We are sneaking peeping toms
In revolt against each other
The villagers are most insane
They live to die anonymous
And muted to... villagers
In revolt against the other
But not against the rules
So in the space age the village idiot rules
On TV for all to see as some good men
Walk the streets
Unh unh unh unh unh, unh unh unh unh unh
The villagersssssss arghhh
You can't get lost you can't get lost
In the village of space you can't get lost

Angry Hills lyrics - Iggy Pop

Heaven it shines in the dawn's early light
In a movement out in the brush
Far out!
Watering graves of the people who read in the book
Of forbidden content
Tragedy!

In a gentle way hear the angry hills
In a gentle way hear them laughing

Imagination under attack for the
Pictures I can't even think
I don't even know them

In a gentle way hear the angry hills
In a gentle way hear them laughing
In a gentle way
In a gentle way hear the angry hills
In a gentle way i am laughing
Yes i am laughing
I am laughing
Yes i am laughing

Life Of Work lyrics - Iggy Pop

Riding in the saddle, henchmen at your side
Holy macaroni, hose you on your back
And the bystanders just stand there like [?] on a shelf
In the world of work your rivals, that you have yet to meet

And quite a bunch they are in the morning sun
With blinking eyes the worthless stands
In readiness for transport to the battleground
There's dirty work ahead of them and quite a bunch they are

What do you do with a life of work?
What do you do with a life of work?
What do you do with a life of work?
Face it in the morning, face it in the morning

And the parting of the ways and the interrupted mirth
And the shock that has to come because of what you want
Compared to what you've got

Meet it squarely and it only hurts when it hurts
Life of work, early in the morning

The Ballad Of Cookie McBride lyrics - Iggy Pop

Well gather round people
And listen to this
I am a hermit of burial ridge
Once i was shaven and worked every day
But the call of the wild just lured me away

Singing hi hi ho it's a water a day
On my way to an unmarked grave
Hi hi ho it's a water a day
On my way to an unmarked grave

There's pals at my table and mud on the floor
There's bears in the area and wolves at the door
Their singing a song about cookie mcbride
Who goes out a-trapping and then tails their hide

Hi hi hey it's a water a day
On my way to an unhappy grave
Hi hi hey it's a water a day
On my way to a rain filled grave

So if you're planning a natural trip
Don't call up snooping on burial ridge
The searchers will come and discover your hide
High, wet and hanging like cookie mcbride

Hi hi hey it's a water a day
On your way to an unhappy grave
Hi hi hey it's a water a day
Who will remember the money you saved?

I'm in over your head
You're in over your head

Ordinary Bummer lyrics - Iggy Pop

Lovely games of yesterday
Have left me with my soul today
Felicity flies out the door
When people lose their warmth

That's a very ordinary bummer
I'll hold out for summer days
Stand and laugh and run
In a quiet movie of mine

I saw a girl with eyes like fire
I had to look away
She was swearing like a sailor
And demanding her own way

That was when i knew i had to love her
I opened up my sad old eyes
And let the feelings run
With a quiet beauty of mine

Maybe sometimes we do bad things
And then other times we do good
And sometimes from something very bad
Comes something very good
In a quiet year of mine

Eat Or Be Eaten lyrics - Iggy Pop

I got nothin to eat in this old house
I gotta go out and catch a mouse
I can't be wrong so i gotta be right
It's eat or be eaten
Something's hungry like a hunter
And it's probing like a fingerrr
As the drumbeat keeps things hurrying
That's the part that's so appealing
It's the beat that dominates
Each breath you draw
Each step you take
Strike or be stricken
Eat or be eaten yum yum yum yum
Eat or be eaten

Your skills are highly specialized
But still that girl can magnetize
You sense the hunger in her eyes
It's beat or be beaten
There's no softness in her eyes
A weird dull glint is in her eyes
With a stubborn will to tantalize
Like some cheap devil in disguise
And it's troubling me
Hell it's nervy that's what it is
Eat or be eaten
Beat or be beaten
Strike or be stricken

The night is dark the night is pulp
Tilt back your head and take a gulp
Of air that's screamed a thousand times
The main thing is to victimize
It's just the night for a conquering tribe
Oh, it's just the night for a conquering tribe
Eat or be eaten
Beat or be beaten

Faster than the arrow flies
Or the man who smiles while he lies
It's just the night for a conquering tribe
And the girls are calling in her yellow dress
That girl is calling in a yellow dress
She says eat eat eat here boys
Eat eat eat here boys
And then a bop a doo ba doop ba abop
A dooba ba bop bohma bop a doo bop bohm
A doopee dee a dop adoop
A bum bayo bayum bohmbayum

Bulldozer lyrics - Iggy Pop

Bulldozer
Like a giant clam
Run that girl over
Get that poseur
Rolldozer
Bulldozer
Ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha

Son of a dog
General dozer
Bulldozer
Get that poseur
Rid that poseur
Ha ha ha ha
Bulldozer

Platonic lyrics - Iggy Pop

Strategic angles indirectly revealed
Uniting human form and manufactured heels
Go buy in a hurry, buying your chance
You give your best by loving a classic

Immoderation seems to suit her best
But then I turn around and she's very delicate
Go buy in a hurry, get all you can
Give her your best [?]

Time has no pull on her soul
When she is here I'm her doorman
I'm [?]

Oh, the coronation when she walks by
Even if it's private makes you end your mind
Buy in a hurry, go get all you can
You give your best for loving a classic
For loving a classic, for loving a classic

The Horse Song lyrics - Iggy Pop

I never saw you before
I never sound strained before
Now i'm at your door
And i hope you're unusual
Very unusual
Now i'm at your door

And when you nicely ask me in
I'm staring at your shoes
And i don't wonder why
I feel like a horse

We can stray out on the open range
Missing me every day with its hidden claws
Spring snow

And when you brush me
Brush me with your eyes
I think you've noticed that
I don't want to be a bad guy anymore

I never saw you before
But you're unusual
And now i'm at your door
I feel safe and warm

I feel
I feel
I feel
I feel

Like a horse

Ha ha ha ha
What's this?

Watching The News lyrics - Iggy Pop

Bzz bzz bzz bzz
Watching the news
The plot you already know
Don't have anything
They don't belong to anywhere
Imagining things to be perfectly white
Who are these people?
They don't belong
Where's the u.s. navy?
I like the action
Money money
Food here
Woman woman
Fight here
Approval approval
Frown frown
Approval
My daughter's not some damn hamburger chainsaw
In a parking lot
She trips
Quick quick
Won't somebody help me?
She carries that television on her back
As i watch the news
That's the russians
Carry the television
Money money
Carry the television
Food here
Fuck here
Fuck here
Fight here
Get out
Approval
You don't count
The president today announced that he's pushing all the buttons in a giggling fit
Ha ha ha ha
You already know
Makes you feel good
Makes you feel so good
I want to be on
I want to be on
So good crying
I want to be on
The news
I want to be known
I want to be known
I want to be on
I want to be known
Come on everybody knows that everybody's watching the news
Watching? watching?
It's something about crime, crime, crime
I like to watch
But i like to
What do you want?
What do you want?
What do you want?
Legs rush, legs rush, legs rush, legs
Scary, scary, damn scary

Come all ye faithful ye joyful triumphant

Street Crazies lyrics - Iggy Pop

[Chorus:]
I am hungry
I am hungry
Give me something
I am hungry
Feed me
Give me something
Street crazy

[Chorus]

I am nobody, i am nobody, i am nobody

[Chorus]

Yes, they're cropping up now with alarming frequency
These little group eyes
Wasted people standing around
Those who've been kicked ass backwards
Hard out of our society
As we try for the better,
For the higher in man
They may as well be apes, you know
Trying to comprehend the way of death

[Chorus]

Shovel it up the street, shovel it up the street, shovel it up the street

And it gets me down
And it gets me down
This is the vision i see
Street crazy

Pain And Suffering lyrics - Iggy Pop

Pain and suffering
Turn things to blood
A power floats
Upside down in a river of mud
A skull of a goat
Makes love to you
You're my doll
A pet who meows
And blood and hate
The blood that's everywhere

Suffering, i am terminating this world
I'm your father now
No more shelter, no more fun
Human race, you're going to writhe now
Heh heh heh heh
I am angry
A tall building fell on daddy

Pain and suffering
I am destruction
I am angry
I am total
(growl)

Pain and suffering
The pain, the pain
No birds are singing
Here comes armageddon

No more shelter
No more fun
Human race
I've got you

"Party" (1981)

Pleasure lyrics - Iggy Pop

Sooner or later baby
I'm gonna squeeze you just like a tomato
Sonner or later baby
I'll probably peel you like some old potato
Just give me some pleasure
It's my life

Sooner or later baby
I'm gonna bleed you
Sooner or later baby
You're gonna feel something for me
Just give me some pleasure
It's my life

I gotta do that
I gotta do that
Just give me some pleasure
It's my life
Just give me pleasure
I got no wife
Just give me pleasure
I got no wife
It's my pleasure
I got no wife
It's my pleasure
That's what I'm living for

I gotta do that

Pleasure

Give me some pleasure please
Pleasure

I'm gonna peel you like a what?
LIke a potato
It's my life

Eggs On Plate lyrics - Iggy Pop

Oh Lord I got eggs on my plate

Hey I live here

I'll put you on the hit parade
Everybody will know your name
Iggyyyyy

Who does my name belong to then?
What have I got? Four walls

For these four walls I love
But are they secure?
Heh God! Are you above?
Then tell me who let that fucking door half open?
Oh Lord I got something

But if they could talk What would they say?
They'd say heh Nash the slash
Why did you leave your sticker on my
Forty-two dollar and fifty cent suite
In James Dean's head bed?

Houston Is Hot Tonight lyrics - Iggy Pop

Bright lights, Houston is hot tonight
Arabian shieks and money, up in the sky
Now I don't mind, a bloodbath

When I've got oil, on my breath
[?] eye to eye
Houston is hot tonight

My brain is tired of the wind
Chicago winters, just do me in
They've got a moon man, on the telephone

Project X, hey, Houston control
[?] eye to eye, Houston
It's like, what's happening?

Houston is hot tonight
Houston is hot tonight
Houston is hot tonight
Houston is hot tonight

Houston is hot tonight
Houston is hot tonight
Houston is hot tonight

Pumpin' For Jill lyrics - Iggy Pop

When I'm asleep, you touch my feet
You let me know that I am no creep
Because I love you, you are for real
I'm gonna stay here - pumping for Jill
In the gas station where I work
Everyone treats me just like a jerk
Nobody offers me a tip
I'm gonna stay here - pumping Jill's hips...
I met you out at the Mardi Gras
On a French Quarter sidewalk
When you kissed me, it was strong
I wonder if you'll hear this song
La da da da da da, da da da da...

Happy Man lyrics - Iggy Pop

I'm her only man
And she's my only romance
I'm her only man
And she's my only romance

Singing ooo-ooooo-ooo
I'm a happy man
Singing ooo-ooooo-ooo

I can make her scream
'Cause she's my only machine
I'm her confidant
And she's my only cream

Singing ooo-ooooo-ooo
I'm a happy man
Ooo-ooooo-ooo
I am happy man

A happy man
A happy man
A happy man
Yes I am

I'm her only love
And she fits me like a glove
I'm her only blood
We do it down in the mud

Because we are lovers
And she's my girl

I'm singing oo-oooo
I'm in a happy world

Bang Bang lyrics - Iggy Pop

Well this ain't the right thing to do, so let's go

Young girls they know what they're after
Young girls don't kiss me goodbye
Rockets shooting up into space
Buildings they rise to the skies

Bang bang I got mine
Bang bang reach for the sky

I keep a good friend on video tape
He'll drive his sports car until it's too late
But we'll have a hot time on the town tonight
Cause love is my bet and it's the best yet

Bang Bang I got mine
Bang Bang sun don't shine
Bang Bang you all angels
Bang Bang now you all ought to be in pictures

Oh girl
Oh girl my problems can't follow me
Phone calls I take my machine
I wander lonely to the sea
Lonely ha Ha ha what does it mean

Bang Bang I got mine
Bang Bang and you are next in line
Bang bang reach for the sky
Bang Bang sun don't shine

Rise buildings
Rise to the sky
Young girls they know what they're after
I said, young girls don't kiss me goodbye

Sea Of Love lyrics - Iggy Pop

Do you remember when we met
That's the day I knew you were my pet
I wanna tell you
How much I love you
Come with me My love To the sea
The sea of love
I wanna tell you
Just how much I love you
Come with me To the sea Of love
Do you remember when we met
Oh that's the day I knew you were my pet
I wanna tell you Oh how much I love you
Come with me To the sea Of love
Come with me My love To the sea
The sea of love
I wanna tell you Just how much I love you
I wanna tell you Oh how much I love you

"Soldier" (1980)

Loco Mosquito lyrics - Iggy Pop

My mommy told me
If I were goody
That she would buy me
A rubber dolly

I got some energy to burn
It makes me jumpy and nervous
But I'm too damn old to join the military service
Hup two three four
I got to hit my baby on a Saturday night
You know the devil made me do it
I know it wasn't right

Like a loco mosquito
'Round and 'round and 'round Igo
And when I'm hungry
Down I go

Please Mr. Custer I don't wanna go
And spend my night in a bar with some stupid dodo
I'm sick of hanging 'round with old transvestites
They stare at my rubbers
It makes me uptight

And here I go
In love again
Here I go-oh wo wo
Like a loco mosquito

I got some energy to burn
But you always want to tap it
You're busy sucking on my gas tank
Before I can tap it

Like a loco mosquito
'Round and 'round and 'round Igo
And when I'm hungry
Down I go

Loco Mosquito

Ambition lyrics - Iggy Pop

I'm the kind of girl
I want that whole wide world
Nothing more nothing less
I don't want second best

Ah but my associates
Why they're no more than opiates
Always dragging me down
Dash my hopes to the ground

But they must be kidding
Or wishful thinking
Adding fuel to the fire
Of my ambition

I'll make a date
Oh no I won't be late
And why of course he'll be there
He'll promise he'll sweur

But all I ever find
Been spun that same old line
It's happened time and time again before
But these things and more
Widen the score

And it's one up for ambition
I really have a go
You know you've got to hand it to me
I've got a heart of gold
But I'm a wolf in mutton's clothes

Someday my time will come
I'll feel I can't go on
I may not care or even know it's there
But then I'll have my fun

So 'till then just press on
Don't lose your grip
Don't lose ambition

Take Care Of Me lyrics - Iggy Pop

I've been working a long long time
Now I'm caught in a wicked bind
You offered love but I threw that out
I couldn't hear you I was too busy shouting

Like a laughing hyena run out of breath
I shot my rocks off 'till there's nothing left
It's an old old story I suppose
A heavy price for a heavy pose

Take care of me
Take care of me
Somebody should
I'm pretty good

International garbage man
I've detided that's what I am
I need somebody to pull me out
I'm sinking like trazy in my sauerkraut

Take care of me
Take care of me
I've done my best
Now you do the rest

Little boy take out your toys
Lay them on the table
Benwa balls and bugs that crawl
I tan't enjoy them without love
Still I've been known to run around

Take care of me
But beware of me
Sometimes I'm a snake
Just aher the take

Take care of me
Take care of me
I've done my best
Take care of me
Now you do the rest
Trake care of me
I'll never forget
Take care of me

Get Up & Get Out lyrics - Iggy Pop

I'm wondering if fellas you've heard the news
These girls are tired of being abused
I saw it ull in a dream last night
They'll be baving this town if you don't treat 'em right

They'll get up
Get up and get out

I wonder Buster if you've heard the word
My little baby's gonna give you the bird
You can check this information on the radio show
Digging that chick little Eva singing "Locomotion"
She's the kind of girl who wants to know
Your deepest secret world

I'm wondering fellas if you've heard the news
The chicks are sick and tired of being abused
Now I saw all this on the wide screen
You know that chick Bette Davis split right out of the scene

She got up She got up
Get up and get out
She got up She got up
Get up and get out

She's the kind of girl who wants to know
Your deepest secret world

Play It Safe lyrics - Iggy Pop

Say Ta
Eisenhower saw the thing
He said this is sickening
I swear I saw the very thing
I saw it in America

Let's play safe
I never knew how
How to play safe
You told me how
How to play safe
A thousand times

I don't believe in fairies any more

Today I saw a very very thing
But that's another song
You're too simple minded
Let's play it safe

What do we have in common?
Play it safe
What do we have in common?
Play it safe

I want to be a criminal
Play it safe

I'm A Conservative lyrics - Iggy Pop

I used to lead a quiet life
In fact it was a bare existence
I passed out on many floors
I don't do that any more

Hello my friends
Is everybody happy?
Hey look me over
Lend me an ear
I'm a conservative

I like the small black marks on my hands
I'm a conservative
I like the crazy girls that I screw
Hey I know them all well

And when I run out of bread I laugh
All the way to the bank
Sometimes I pause for a drink
Conservatism ain't no easy job

I smile in the mornings
I live without a care
Nothing is denied me
And nothing ever hurts

I got bored so I'm making my millions
When you're conservative you get a better break
You're always on the rigltt side
When you're conservative

You walk with pride
Pride is on your side
Pride pride pride
Is on our side
Oh boy
Pride is on our side

I like my beer
I like my bread
I love my girl
I love my head

I'm in the clear man
I'm in the dear
Because I'm a conservative
I'm a conservative
I really am
Ohyeslam

And it would mean so much to me
If you would only be like me
Yes it could mean so much to me

Hey look me over
Lend me an ear
I'm a conservative

Dog Food lyrics - Iggy Pop

I'm hanging around that same old scene
My girlfriend Betsy she's just fourteen
There's nothing better for me to do
I'm living on dog food

Dog food is so good for you
It makes you strong and clever too
Dog food is a current craze
Eat some every day

I chew up my "Sunday Mirror"
I read about the rich I fear
Dog food is my whole life
Dog food composes my wife

Yum yum yum - Woof woof woof - Arf arf

I Need More lyrics - Iggy Pop

I walk around
I flop uround
I need something that will be found
More venom, more dynamite, more disaster
I need more than I ever did before

But everything is going up in price
My life is going all right up 'til now
Even so there's something missing
More truth
More intelligence
Ha ha
More future
More laugh
More culture
Don't forget adrenaline
More freedom

I need more than an ordinary grind
And the more I think the more I need
More tars
I'll take more money
More champagne
I can't forget my brain
More floors
More doors
More mustard
Pickle and relish

I need more than an ordinary grind
Everybody ought to love his job
And live his life and keep his pride
Imperturbably happy with the one you love
With an exciting future
On the fat of the land

I need more than an ordinary grind
And the more I think the more I need
My life is going all right up 'til now
Even so it's not enough for me and

I need more
I need more
I need more
Oo oo oo oo
Oo oo oo oo
Than I ever did before

I need to lead a dissipate existence
And play scratchy records
And enjoy my decline
With more divorce records, more distance,
More future, more culture

More

Mr. Dynamite lyrics - Iggy Pop

They call me Mr. Dynamite
I blow things up in black and white
An end to your charade
A button I have made must be pushed

There is no reason for the sky
When I'm on fire with your lies
So if I can win this fight
Then call me Mr. Dynamite

So here we stand
Both you and I
We're face to face
But eye to eye?
Tomorrow you may change
And I would be betrayed, my friend...

Oh mommy mommy mommy
Do you remember Mr. Dynamite?
You know that guy from down the block
He blew things up in black and white

Yesterday he changed
Today he is betrayed
In the street
On the ground
The neighbors gather 'round

Poor Mr. Dynamite

I Snub You lyrics - Iggy Pop

You are a moron
I'm glad to be here
Seeing the sight of you
Smelling the smell of you

You most deplorable glaring example
Of a degenerate narcotic influence
My seething hate is driving me nuts
What can I do to obliterate you

I snub you
I really hope you're one of a kind
You don't care who you brutalize
You are a bully plain and simple

You are a beast you are a pig
You've been a pig for long enough now
I'm making my move
I'm making an end to you

I snub you
And when I snub
I really snub
I snub you finally, forever

Is she really going out with him?
Now is the time
I'm playing my ate
I'll give you a mouthful you can't swallow

Unquestionably I've been lacking in taste
You're being cheerful but not for long
Your Mum and Dad they sure made a mess
You're going to look like watercress

When I snub you
He snubs you
We snub you
Dogs snub you
I snub you

"New Values" (1979)

Tell Me A Story lyrics - Iggy Pop

What must I do to take a holiday
Show me a bill that they can make me pay
Tell me a story
And maybe I'll believe it

Me I'm just a lucky guy
Young and free
Too hard to cry

Lorna from my school she's 21
She's good looking and a married girl so
Tell me a story
Tell me stories
And man I ain't complaining

Me I'm just a lucky guy
Young and hard
Too tough to cry

Standing in a show
The lights ain't low
They're shining down on me
And I like, I like it
Just like I like I like it
I'm taking like I find it

What did they do to chill the joy away
What did they do to say you had to pay
And pay
And pay
Tell me stories
You know I never can believe them
Never ever

Me I'm just a lucky guy
I'm young and free
Too dumb to cry

What must I do to take a holiday
Show me a bill that they can make me pay
Tell me a story
And maybe I'll believe it

Me I'm just a lucky guy
I'm Young and free
Too hard to cry

New Values lyrics - Iggy Pop

I'm healthy as a horse
Ahh, but everything is spinnin'
And if I use a gun I'm sure to go to prison
I'm stubborn as a mule
And nobody breaks my rules
Ahh, but nothin' comes my way.

I've got a hard-ass pair of shoulders
I've got a love you can't imagine
Yeah, and what I got I double
I swear I'm keepin' out of trouble.

I'm lookin' for one new value
I'm lookin' for one new value
But nothing comes my way.

We live in the same world..
We were young in the 20th century...

Ahh, but nothin' comes my way.

Girls lyrics - Iggy Pop

I love girls
There all over this world
Hah!
Like to look at ya

Well I'm gonna tell you about girls.
They're all over this world
Some have beautiful shapes
I wanna live to be ninety-eight

Yeah, somebody to talk to
And I like to look at you
Yeah, somebody to talk to
And I love to look at you

'Cause you're a real fine girl

Last week in Paree
I was hanging down with Suzee
That crazy French magazine
She turned me backwards to a new scene

'Cause she was somebody to talk to
And to tell my troubles to
She was somebody that's so fine
Worth my looking in to

She's a beautiful girl, girl, girl

Summertime
Oh, and the living is easy
The girls are jumping
And the cotton is high
Your daddy is rich
And your mama's good looking
So hush little baby
And don't you cry

'Cause you're a real fine girl

I'm Bored lyrics - Iggy Pop

I'm bored

I'm the chairman of the bored,
I'm a lengthy monologue
I'm livin' like a dog

I'm bored

I bore myself to sleep at night
I bore myself in broad daylight coz

I'm bored
Just another slimy bore

I'm free to bore my well-bought friends
And spend my cash until the end coz

I'm bored
I'm bored

I'm the chairman of the board

I'm sick
I'm sick of all my kicks
I'm sick of all the stiffs
I'm sick of all the dips

I'm bored

I bore myself to sleep at night
I bore myself in broad daylight coz

I'm bored
I'm bored

Just another dirty bore

All right doll-face
Come on and bore me

I'm sick
I'm sick of all my kicks
I'm sick of all the stiffs
I'm sick of all the dips

I'm sick

I'm sick when I go to sleep at night
I'm still sick in the broad daylight coz

I'm bored
I'm bored

I'm the chairman of the. . .

BORED!

Don't Look Down lyrics - Iggy Pop

The Endless Sea lyrics - Iggy Pop

Oh baby, what a place to be
In the service of the bourgeoisie
Where can my believers be
I wanna jump into the endless sea

Oh, oh the endless sea
Oh, oh the endless sea
I wanna jump into the endless sea
Let it wash all over me

Above us is a dirty sky
Full of youths and liquors
A little girl, a little guy
This air can't get much thicker

Oh, oh the endless sea
Oh, oh the endless sea
Oh, oh the endless sea
Let it wash all over me

And when you're tight for the rent
You think you're gonna break
But you know it's no damn good
Just one more phony on the take

You better go home, buddy
I really think,
You better go home, buddy
You better go home, buddy

The endless sea

Five Foot One lyrics - Iggy Pop

Yeah, I like it
Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!

I'm only five foot one
I got a pain in my neck
I'm looking up in the city
What the hell what the heck

I stare at the concrete
The girders eye high
The steel's above me
There's love in my eyes

And I'm doing the things
A five foot one man can do

I'm only five foot one
I got a pain in my heart
All the night I'm working
In the amusement park

With a bottle of aspirin
A sack full of jokes
I wish I could go home
With all the big folks

And I wish life could be
Swedish magazines
I wish life could be
Swedish magazines
I wish life could be
Anything
Ugh! Aie! Aie! Aie!
Ugh!

I'm only five foot one
Unless the time has come
I won't grow anymore
Anymore, anymore, anymore

'Till I'm losing my head
I'm checkin' it twice
I'm gonna find out who's naughty and nice

And I'm doing the things a five foot one man can do

I wish life could be Swedish magazines [3x]
I wish life could be
Yeah, I wish life could be
Oooooooooohhh
I wish life could be

I wish life could be Swedish magazines
I wish life could be Swedish magazines
I wish life could be

I won't grow anymore [3x]
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore

I'm only five foot one [3x]
I'm five foot one

How Do You Fix A Broken Part lyrics Iggy Pop

How do you fix a broken part
How come the sun's too bright to live
Tell me how to fix it

How do you fix a broken heart
Who said this life's too much to bear
Just tell me how to fix it

It's boken
It's broken

What good is it broken

What good is it

How can I fix this broken heart
How come the sun's too bright to bear
Anyway I fix it

So take off your hard hats boys
In a moment of silence

Yeah, get out the your toolbox boys
You'll fix me I know it

How do you fix it

Get out the toolbox boys
I know you can fix things

I know you can fix things
I know you can fix things
I know you can fix it
So how do you fix it
A broken heart
Fix my broken heart
Fix my broken heart [to fade]

Angel lyrics - Iggy Pop

Still when I was crying
You were on my side
Angel, you can come and see me here tonight
Angel, of course you're always more than welcome here
Still I'm needing somebody else... again.

Writings up my place
There is nothing much I want to do about it
The way I fall without you
The way I'm dull without you
I split my score, offer you love.

Still when I was crying
You were on my side
Angel, I never thought that I'd be free or clear
Angel, except for you, I doubt that I'd be here
Still I'm needing somebody else... again.
Still I'm needing somebody else... again.

Curiosity lyrics - Iggy Pop

Because of curiosity
All the Vandals had to see
The golden throne
Of Ancient Rome
And brought the city to its knees

Because of curiosity

Because of curiosity
I'm just riddled with anxiety
I'm the lowest level
As a matter of fact
I often dwell for days on this

But when I see your smiling face
I'm so disgraced
And if you're holding out on me
I get curious
As curious as I can be

Curious
Because of curiosity

Curiosity killed the cat
But satisfaction brought it back
In terms of this cat
As a matter of fact
I'll meet you at the old mouse hole
I'll meet you at the old mouse hole

When I see your smiling face
I'm so disgraced
If you're holding out on me
I get curious
As curious as I can be
Curious as I can be
Curious as I can be

Yeah, curiosity

Billy Is A Runaway lyrics - Iggy Pop

Billy was a Bird dog
He pulled up in a Bonneville
I went to see my manager
He usually handles these things

Billy pulled his wallet
Full of hundred dollar bills
Took me for a joyride
Talkin' 'bout the stereo
Drivin' in the left lane
I'm thinkin' 'bout my burial

We pulled into the liquor store
And he was underage
And all he said to me was
Put your money away

'Cause Billy is a runaway

Billy's got a Family
Gonna skin him alive
His dope dealing sister
Wants him to join the enterprise

I leave him at the motel
They can talk it all over
His sister's got a baby now
And Billy hardly knows her

Well I'm a friendly kind of guy
And I had to have him over
I gave him a drink
What do you think
His hands start shakin'
His boots start quakin'

Billy is a runaway [4x]

Runaway [3x]

His hands start shakin'
His boots start quakin'

Runaway baby

Billy is a runaway [2x]

"Lust For Life" (1977)

Lust For Life lyrics - Iggy Pop

Here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs
And a flesh machine
He's gonna do another strip tease

Hey man, where'd you get that lotion?
I've been hurting since I bought the gimmick
About something called love
Yeah, something called love
Well, that's like hypnotising chickens

Well, I'm 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'm worth a million in prizes
With my torture film
Drive a G.T.O.
Wear a uniform
All on 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'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in my ear before
'Cause, of a lust for life (lust for life)
'Cause of a lust for life (lust for life, oooo)
I've got a lust for life (oooh)
Got a lust for life (oooh)
Oh, a lust for life (oooh)
Oh, a lust for life (oooh)
A lust for life (oooh)
I got a lust for life (oooh)
Got a lust for life

Well, I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in my ear before
'Cause I've a lust for life
'Cause I've a lust for life.

Well, here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs
And a flesh machine
I know he's gonna do another strip tease

Hey man, where'd ya get that lotion?
Your skin starts itching once you buy the gimmick
About something called love
Oh Love, love, love
Well, that's like hypnotising chickens.

Well, I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in the ear before
And I've a lust for life (lust for life)
'Cause I've a lust for life (lust for life)
Got a lust for life
Yeah, a lust for life
I got a lust for life
Oh, a lust for life
Got a lust for life
Yeah a lust for life
I got a lust for life
Lust for life [repeat and fade]

Sweet Sixteen lyrics - Iggy Pop

Sweet Sixteen in leather boots
Body and soul I go crazy
Baby, baby I'm hungry Sweet Sixteen

Funky bar all full of faces
Pretty faces, beautiful faces
Body and soul, body and soul, I give to you

I am an easy mark
With my broken heart Sweet Sixteen

Show you my explosion Sweet Sixteen

Go out to the funky bar
I get hurt- crying inside
'Cause everybody's so fine and
And they don't need me

Tell me, what can I do, Sweet Sixteen?

I give you my body and soul Sweet Sixteen

I must be hungry
'Cause I go crazy
Over your leather boots

Now baby, I know
That's not normal
Well, I love you, I love you, I love you<, Sweet Sixteen

Everywhere I go, I'm lonely..

Some Weird Sin lyrics - Iggy Pop

Well, I never got my license to live
They won't give it up
So I stand at the world's edge

I'm trying to break in
Oh, I know it's not for me
And the sight of it all
Makes me sad and ill
That's when I want- Some Weird Sin

Things get too straight
I can't bear it
I feel stuck, stuck on a pin

I'm trying to break in
Oh, I know it's not for me
But the sight of it all
Makes me sad and ill
That's when I want- Some Weird Sin
That's when I want- Some Weird Sin
Just to relax with

Yeah, some dumb, weird sin
For a while anyway
With my head on the ledge
That's what you get out on the edge
Some Weird Sin

Things get too straight
I can't bear it
I feel stuck, stuck on a pin

I'm trying to break in
Oh, I know it's not for me
When the sight of it all
Makes me sad and ill
That's when I want- Some Weird Sin
That's when I want- Some Weird Sin
Just to relax with

That's some dumb weird sin
For a while anyway
With my head out on the ledge
That's what you get out on the edge
Some Weird sin

Some weird sin, Some weird sin, etc

The Passenger lyrics - Iggy Pop

I am the passenger and I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backsides
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, the bright and hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight

I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's ripped backsides
And everything looks good tonight
Singing la la la la la.. lala la la, la la la la.. lala la la etc

Get into the car
We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
We'll see the city's ripped backsides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
Stars made for us tonight

Oh, the passenger
How, how he rides
Oh, the passenger
He rides and he rides
He looks through his window
What does he see?
He sees the sign and hollow sky
He sees the stars come out tonight
He sees the city's ripped backsides
He sees the winding ocean drive
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me
'Cause it just belongs to you and me
So let's take a ride and see what's mine
Singing la la la la.. lala la la [x3]

Oh the passenger
He rides and he rides
He sees things from under glass
He looks through his window side
He sees the things that he knows are his
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He sees the city sleep at night
He sees the stars are out tonight
And all of it is yours and mine
And all of it is yours and mine
So let's ride and ride and ride and ride
Oh, oh, Singing la la la la lalalala

Tonight lyrics - Iggy Pop

I saw my baby
She was turning blue
Oh, I knew that soon, her
Young life was through

And so I got down on my knees
Down by her bed
And these are the words
To her I said

Everything will be all right, Tonight [x2]

No one moves
No one talks
No one thinks
No one walks, Tonight

Everyone will be all right, Tonight [x2]

No one moves
No one talks
No one thinks
No one walks, Tonight, Tonight

I am gonna love her to the end [x2]
I will love her 'til I die
I will see her in the sky...Tonight [x5]

Success lyrics - Iggy pop

Here comes success, here comes success
Over my hill, over my hill
Here comes success, here comes success
Here comes my car, here comes my car
Here comes my Chinese rug, here comes my Chinese rug
Here comes success, here comes success

In the last ditch, in the last ditch
I'll think of you, I'll think of you
In the last ditch, in the last ditch
I will be true, I will be true
Sweetheart I'm telling you, sweetheart I'm telling you
Here comes the zoo, here comes the zoo

Here comes success, here comes success
Oh, hooray success, hooray success
Here comes success, hooray success
Oh oh success, oh oh success
I can't help myself, I can't help myself
I just got to got to got to, I just got to got to got to...
I can't stand it, got to got to got to

Here comes my face, here comes my face
It's plain bizarre, it's plain bizarre
Here comes my face, here comes my face
Out of the crowd, out of the crowd
Sweetheart I'm telling you, sweetheart I'm telling you
Here comes the zoo, here comes the zoo

In the last ditch, in the last ditch
Here comes success, here comes success
Here comes success, here comes success
I'm gonna do the twist, I'm gonna do the twist
I'm moved, man, I'm wiggged, oh I'm moved and I'm wigged
I'm crazy, I'm gonna, I'm gonna go crazy. And if you, maybe you'd like..
Let's blast off!

Alright! Baby, let's blast off, oh, baby let's blast off
Blast off on success, blast off on success
Oh you slay me, oh you slay me, baby, ooooh, you slay me, baby
I'm gonna do the twist, I'm gonna do the twist
I'm gonna hop like a frog, I'm gonna hop like a frog
I'm gonna go out on the street and do anything I want
I'm gonna go out on the street and do anything
Oh, shit! Oh, shit!

Turn Blue lyrics - Iggy Pop

See a black Eldorado
Oh, rolling along down below my window
That black girl in the back looks pretty good
Christ! She's beautiful
You know how soft she is
Just what you feel like

Oh, I'm so far away from her
Jesus this is Iggy
You, you might as well come with me,
When you ride the ride
There's talk and I don't wanna talk

Oh mamma, I shot myself down [x4]

They're stepping on our hearts
Stepping on our hearts
I don't know why they're stepping on our hearts
Damn, I don't know why
Stepping on our hearts [x5]
Can't you see, oh no, Stepping on our hearts

How come the blacks, how come they copy you so good?
They get off on you, so ?
If you wanna make it
Young man you gotta make somebody come
Come out of your black [x2] and strong
Black! Strong! Black!

Jesus it's cold in this room, it's really cold
You know I never told you about this, but there's one guy
Somebody I really love, he's never around
Well he was taking things that could be alright, that could be nice
And make him ugly, so damn ugly
And we put out the lights on them
Yeah, we'd make it dark, we put out the lights....on them
It's idiots like you that screw me up
I know there's nothing to you
And I don't know why I treat you so kind
Come down and dance with me, dance with me
You got nobody left but me
Oh accept me, don't reject me, don't forget me
Mamma, what colour will the lights be? Will they turn blue on me? [x2]
Mamma, I shot myself up, woh mamma, I shot myself up, up, up, mamma
Up down, up down mamma
Oh oh oh oh oh mamma
I didn't know what I was doing, I didn't mean to, but I did it, I shot myself up
Mamma I shot myself!
