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
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
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

Corrupting in the air

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
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

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
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
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
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
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
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

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
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]
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
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
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
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
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

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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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

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
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?
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
Watching the news

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
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
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

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

I thank you Lord

And the ceiling above it
Who left Murph the Surf On my ceiling?
Iggyyyyyyyyyyyy

Hahahahahah a ah hahahaha!
Four walls Four walls

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

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,

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?
I got em Damn right

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
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...
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...

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

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
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

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
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
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
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
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
