Knucklehead lyrics - Iggy Pop

Fancy Apple lap top cost 5 grand
Fresh girl in a T-shirt silll looks best
Travel to a sunny quiet land
Layin' on the beach I miss my pests
Life's turning up the pressure

It's makin' me aggressive
The music sounds like dead ham
The dj is a con man
He's sayin'...

I I I want something from you
I I I want something from you
I I I want something from you
Knucklehead what can you do
What can you do?

One day I went out to buy a truck
I found one that looked so huge and big
Once I got that sucker on the road
I was looking down at everything
And I really liked that
Everyone obeyed me
I thought this is power
Like that religious hour
When the preacher says...

I I I want something from you
I I I want something from you
I I I want something from you
Knucklehead what can you do?

Something from you Something from you
Something from you Something from you

Once the telephone starts ringing I stop thinking
Sittin' at the TV I'm just blinking
Go to the compuler and I'm punching
What's this information that I'm munching
The leader and the followers
The rock star and the model
The general and the perverts
They're poking me where it hurts (ouch!)

I I I want something from you
I I I want something from you
I I I want something from you
Knucklehead what can you do?

To Belong lyrics - Iggy Pop

A bird is sitting on the pavement
Someone broke his wing
Now that bird is going nowhere
And he's suffering

Now I understand the setup
I see everything
And the only way to go
Is defy, is defy, is defy

To belong here, to belong here, to belong here
I'm giving up my soul
To belong, to belong, to belong

A spider is sitting in a corner
Gonna catch a fly
Ths web is pulling tight around him
And the fly's I
But all I do is guard my pile
Cause it's my supply
And the only way to go
Is defy, is defy, is defy

To belong here, to belong here, to belong here
I'm giving up my soul

Keep On Believing lyrics - Iggy Pop

I woke up in the quiet dark
Fed the cat and hit the park
Cutest chicest chocolate queen
Look and smiled right at me
Keep on believing, keep on believing
Keep on believing, keep on believing

She said "hi" without no sound
Made my head go Iight and 'round
She was dressed to kill tne pope
Ard what she did she gave me hope
I smiled back without no sound
I said "hi" and left the ground
Keep on believing, keep on believing, keep on believing

Life won't leave me alone
Trouble won't leave rne alone
Strenght don't leave me alone
Truth don't leave me alone

She looked so bright in pixie hair
She made me know how much I cared
Her brown eyes gave me butterflies
Sho towed my soul up to the sky
Keep on believing, keep on believing
Keep on believing, keep on believing

Outta My Head lyrics - Iggy Pop

Sally goes 'round the roses
Every night
Trying to find a warm place
To spend the night
She becomes a target
Soon as she rise
Somebody wants to cut her
Down to his size

It's a sad bad feeling
It's a sad bad feeling
It's a sad bad feeling
The feeling's in my bones
It won't leave me alone

I'm going out, outa my head, I'm going out, outta my head
I'm going out, outa my head, I'm going out, outta my head

Jimmy goes round the dumpsters every day
Trying to find a way ot
Some kind of way
He knows he's a target
Everyone is
Strangle that rock and roll star
Make him eat jizz

It's a sad bad feeling
It's a sad bad feeling
It's a sad bad feeling
The feeling's in my bones
It won't leave me alone

I'm going out, outa my head, I'm going out, outta my head
I'm going out, outa my head, I'm going out, outta my head

Shoeshine Girl lyrics - Iggy Pop

One day as I was walking
Through an airport corridor
I saw a comely goth girl
With tattos on her form
She gezed up with her pretty white fece
And shone her eyes on me
She shined my shoes and then I knew
That I would spellbound be

Her hair was not the shiniest
Her skin was not like silk
But she had a way of looking
That made me wanna milk
As I sat high above her
Her cleavage I could see
I contemplated both of them
That's how she spellbound me

She wore black on her clothing
And she wore black on her boots
Lt was Lollapalooza day
But she didn't Iike he groups
I got lost in her pale skin
And wanted to stay down
But I had someone waiting
So I left spellbound

So if you're dark and lovely
And you see me passing by
A smile I'd appreciate
And a little bit of crime
I haven' got a dollar
And I haven't gol a crown
I wander lost across this earlh
I'm just spellbound

Heart Is Saved lyrics - Iggy Pop

Gamblin on instincts well here's what I found
Voice from my pocket starts pulling me down
Tells me my bucks ain't enough
And life doesn't have to be rough

But a little white cloud
Tells me what I crave
And the way I feel
Means my heart is saved
And the money goes 'round
And the babes are babes
And the way I feel
Means my heart is saved

Personally I like midwestern tows
I like the girls there and even the clowns
But now I've been out on the wheel
Out where you're worth what you steal
And I can't go back to a yesterday
No I can't turn back 'cause my heart is saved
And I gotta believe all night and all day
And when I believe my heart is saved

I'm weird and half-dead
There's a fortune in my head
Don't touch me
My heart is saved

Gamblin on instincts well here's what I found
Voice from my pocket starts pulling me down
Tells me my bucks ain't enough
And life doesn't have to be rough

But a little white cloud tells me what I crave
And the way I feel means my heart is saved
And I gotta believe all night and all day
And when I believe my heart is saved

Look Away lyrics - Iggy Pop

I slept wlth Sable when she was 13
Her parents were too rich to do anything
She rocked her way around L.A
'Til a New York doll carried her away

Look away Look away

Now he was blond and she was dark
They called him Thunder 'cause he had the spark
The dream he dreamed was straight and pure
But the confusion of life was gonna get him for sure

Look away Look away

They shared their clothes and their cowboy boots
Left them all over the floor while they dyed their roots
They live the dreann and they went non-stop
They did' ok 'til the band broke up

Look away Look away Look away Look away

Unfortunately the needle broke
Their rock and roll love like a bicycle spoke
I found her in a back street with her looks half gone
She was sellin something that I was on

Look away Look away

Now Thunder and me did not part friends
What we did once I wouldn't do again
So he stayed with the pure dream and followed the moon
'Til the drugs in his body made his mind a cartoon

Look away Look away

So a few years later Thunder died broke
Sable had a baby back at her folks
Me I went straight and serious too
There wasn't much else that I could do

Look away Look away

So now that I'm straight I'm settled too
I eat and I slesp and I work like you
I got lots of feelings but I hold them down
That's a way I cope with this shitty town

Look away Look away
Look away Look away

"American Caesar" (1993)

Character lyrics - Iggy Pop

Well, i 'll tell you
one good thing at least about some
of these junkies was
they had some character
they may have driven me nuts
someties & screwed up
but at least when they played
the damn guitar they' d play it
like they meant it -
these white bread boys nowadays
knowin' all the score,
don' t even know how to puke

Wild America lyrics - Iggy Pop

One night out in L.A.
i met a mexicana
with a butchy girlfriend
who i thought was a man
they took me to the alley
to have a little chat
people lined the corner
doin' this and that
in wild america

now i 'm in a black car
with my mexicana
she's got methedrine but
i want marijuana
i don 't want to drive home
not in my condition
so i ask my friend matt
to handle the ignition
in wild america
exterminate the brutes

(live interview:
Rollins: yeah
Iggy: yeah
Rollins: yeah
Iggy: yeah
Iggy: well i mean i like it here...do you have anything you' d like to say to america?
Rollins: I'd iust like to say at this point that i' m 24 hour, 7 day a week, 365 day a year american)

i was glad that Debbie
had a sense of humor
this time of the morning
i tend to get gloomy
she laughed and said "Iggy,
you have got a biggy!"
i had no reply
so i just closed my eyes
in wild america
exterminate the brutes
they're goin' wild
goin' wild
they' re goin' wild
they' re goin' wild baby
they got all kinds of fuckin' stuff
they got everything you could imagine
they' re so god dammed spoiled
they' re poisoned inside
they iudge a man by what he's got
and they wanta have more and more
more power, more freedom
taller kids, longer lives
everything, bigger houses, slaves, woa

Mixin' The Colors lyrics - Iggy Pop

all across the continents
everywhere a soul is sent
a new mix of the races is takln
it's what Hitler didn' t like
and it makes a pretty sight
just look at what you see on your mtv

out on the edges they' re mixin' the colors
some they don' t like it but me i don' t mind
in every city they' re mixing the colors
different shades for the whole countryside
if you leave the hate alone tonight
music's gonna get you home tonight
if you leave the hate alone tonight
music's gonna get you home tonight
mixin', they 're mixin'

on the edges of the line
there's a different kind of kind
no one seems to claim for
the race war games
'cause you don t have to choose sides
it just crucifies your mind
there's a hundred million ways
to live your life for yourself
'
out on the edges they re mixin' the colors
some they don 't like it but me i don' t mind
in every city they 're mixin' the colors
different shades for the whole countryside

i like the kids with the ways of their own
if you leave the hate alone tonight
music's gonna get you home tonight
if you leave the hate alone tonight
music's gonna get you home tonight
mixin' the colors

now a language that sounds new
comes a-driftin' next to you
and the music that you hear ls changin' too
cuz they 're mixin' the colors
baby the colors

Jealousy lyrics - Iggy Pop

He's got a great big hit he's in a limousine
when i see his face somethin' starts to freeze
he's got money for miles his girl comes out of vogue
when he acts like an ass he's treated like a rogue

i feel it comin' it's flushin' my face
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
i feel it comin' it's boilin my blood
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
i feel it comin' flushin' my face
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
i feel it comin' boilin' my blood
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
this isn 't for the first time in my life

she comes from top cheekbones she never worried hard
you could camp an army on her family's yard
when i look at blue blood i want to make it mud
and tear that difference down rock an' roll is how

i feel it comin' it's breakin' my neck
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
i feel it comin' boilin' my blood
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
i feel it comin' boilin my blood
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
i feel it comin breakin' my neck
i feel lr comin' jealousy baby
this isn 't for the first time in my life
i feel it comin' it's flushin' my face
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
i feel it comin' boilin my blood
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
i feel it comin' flushin' my face
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
i feel it comin' breakin' my neck
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
i feel it comin' heatin' my eyes
i feel it comin' jealousy baby
jealousy baby

Hate lyrics - Iggy Pop

An evil look that tells me to fuck off
from the one who 'll never treat me soft
i start to boil and to concentrate
on images of anger and of hate
these are the ways i feed my hate
these are the lights that burn too late
these are the ways i feed my hate
these me the lights that burn too late

the mean stupidity of what he says
the millions who admire it and they spread
and all i wanta feel is just them dead
and have to eat the things they did and said
these are the ways i feed my hate
these are the lights that burn so late
these are the ways i feed my hate
these are the lights that burn too late
hate
why am i afraid?
afraid

It's Our Love lyrics - Iggy Pop

I found you lookin for the rainbow
you found me waitin for a chance
now we got something good together
a life where we have joined our hands
and there ain 't nobody gonna break that
our love
and there ain't noeody gonna break it
our love
our love
i didn' t have too much to offer
you didn 't have much to expect
a cold hotel room full of trouble
beside a blinkin traffic light
on all night
and there ain' t nobody gonna break this
it' s our love
there ain' t nosody gonna take it
not our love
nobody's gonna take this
it 's our love
love
i know the feeling of being outside
alone and watchin all the fun
the crowd's together, laughin loudly
and long
but that type - they re never really strong
an 'there ain' t nobody gonna take it
an 'there ain' t nobody gonna take it
an 'there ain' t nobody gonna take it
there ain' t nobody who's gonna break it
it's our love

Plastic & Concrete lyrics - Iggy Pop

Plastic & concrete, baby
these are the facts of life
i 'm a nightmare child
stuck on my own knife
i' m glad my mother loved me
i' m sick & paranoid
the hotel generater
hums into the void
of plastic & concrete

plastic & concrete, baby
i gotta learn to slow down
somethin new from chemistry
is jackin my brain around
i have got the plastic
and i have got the stone
out there in the suburbs
i learned to be alone
in plastic & concrete

plastic & concrete sandwich
you 'd like to eat me, but
later you 'll reiect me
i' m too much to bite off
the salad on my outside
is made of suicide
the guy who squirts my mayonnaise
is on a one-way ride
in plastic & concrete
plastic & concrete

Fuckin' Alone lyrics - Iggy Pop

Fast young girl wants to go
body 's red mouth is whole
got the worst in the world
but this won 't be hassle-free
lovers kiss in the heat
body crush basement suite
mind my eyes behind my hair
hide my face and look nowhere
change addresses ditch that guy
don 't pick up when he calls
runaway everyday
coffee beans and hideaways
they want these, they want those
first my nose then my toes
presidents and super meaks
litey dogs and love boutioues
afternoons wakin up
neighborhood slouch and stuff
drifters too in a flow
nowhere they got to go
shave haired girl with a dog
dressin cool not too new
i wanna talk i wanna know,
what she feels and what she knows
i m so fuckin alone
i m so fucking alone
o.k. o.k.this is me
o.k. o.k.this is me

evening breeze river east
music mix salsa speed
metal rap lonely sax
open jeep with the speakers back
rock n roll band practicin'
shakin those walls next to me
everybody is in a dream
of what they want and who they need
to feel all right to be alive
to wipe out words that they despise
from a thunder brain
that's quick to pain
and only once to live again
when that set up gets in the way
the dreamin brain will make a play
to wipe it all outta space
press record and then erase
cuz there's something here
they gotta face
everyeody in this place
it's the same for everyone
they gotta figure out something
they gotta figure out themselves
they gotta figure on their own
they gotta figure out, ok ?
o.k. o.k. o.k. o.k.
i 'm so fuckin alone
i' m so fuckin alone
oh no, being alone
i'm so fucking alone
o.k. o.k. so this is me
o.k. o.k. so this is me
this is me
o.k.
i' m not even sure what she wanted
i 'm not even sure what she wanted

Highway Song lyrics - Iggy Pop

I been walkin' down the road
what it means i dunno
i been walkin' down the highway
with the bad food flyin by me
i' m an ordinary man
with a time bomb in my hand
it keeps tickin' an i keep runnin
tryin to find out where i come from
and there ain' t nothin' gonna take this road away
nothin' gonna take this road away
nothin' gonna take this road outta my heart
nothin' gonna take this pain outta my heart

i wake up sweatin in the night
every town is only lights
i 'm addicted to the highway
'cuz i just can' t do things their way
and there ain' t nothin gonna take this road away
nothin gonna take that road away
nothin gonna take that road outta my heart

highway i' m doin fine
you help me draw the line
no use in bein alive
if i' m just rentin
i undersand the circus well
i' ve played the clown when down he fell
but bein' down ain' t bein' loser
so just look out here comes a bruiser
and there ain 't nothin gonna take my road away
nothin' gonna take my road away
nothin' gonna take my road outta my heart

Sickness lyrics - Iggy Pop

hey little girl you' re black and blue
hey little girl you 're six foot two
i know a man who loved too hard
he lost his mind it wasn' t hard
over this slckness
over this slckness

this slckness of love
cute little knees that you got
out in the dark parking lot
cute little voice whispering
i know a man lost everything
over this sickness
over this sickness
over this sickness
this sickness of love
hey little girl i' m almost through
hey little girl i' m almost you
hey little girl the river runs
hey little girl the rising sun
over this sickness
this slckness of love

Boogie Boy lyrics - Iggy Pop

i like to play around with boogie toys
i need a boogie girl to boogie too
i need a doogie god my shoe to chew
i like to make a dumb ass noise
because i 'm a boogie boogie boy

cuz my boogie head is made outta wood

i like to go down to mash potato town
cuz that's where a boogie boy can get

thats what i do
like to make noise
like to go out and be a boogie boy

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

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

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

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

Gotta break it loose

Gonna keep a swingin' baby

Gonna keep a swingin' baby

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

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
I gotta do that
Pleasure

Give me some pleasure please
Pleasure
Give me some pleasure please
I'm gonna squeeze you like tomato
I'm gonna peel you like a what?
LIke a potato
It's my life
It's just my life
It's just my life

Eggs On Plate lyrics - Iggy Pop

Oh Lord I got eggs on my plate
I got em Damn right
I got four walls I live here
Hey I live here
Now this big Jew-man uptown
He told me one day
He said, heh boy
You look at that house On the hill
That cost a hundred thousand dollars
You could be up there
You know what?
I'll put you on the hit parade
Everybody will know your name
Iggyyyyy
But man Heh Solomon
Who does my name belong to then?
What have I got? Four walls
What have I got? Four walls
I thank you Lord
I thank you Lord above this orange carpet
And the ceiling above it
Who left Murph the Surf On my ceiling?
Iggyyyyyyyyyyyy
Now here we go boys
Hahahahahah a ah hahahaha!
Four walls Four walls
Here I go
I'm looking for love again
I'm looking for love
I'm runnin from friend to friend
I'm looking for love in the wine
I'm looking for love
In anybody I can find
Thank you God
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
I'll tell you what I got, boys, I got this
Four walls, Three walls,
Two walls, Four walls
But they can't talk Four walls
But they can't talk Four walls
But they can't talk Four walls
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
