1. Fuel

[History, and Original Lyrics]

Gimme fuel
Gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire Ooh

Turn on I see red
Adrenaline crash and crack my head
Nitro junkie paint me dead
And I see red

One hundred plus through black and white
War horse
Warhead
Fuck 'em man white nuckle tight
Through black and white

Ooh on I burn
Fuel is pumping engines
Burning hard, loose and clean
And on I burn
Churning my direction
Quench my thirst with gasoline

Just gimme fuel
Gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire

Turn on beyond the bone
Swallow future
Spit out home
Burn your face upon the crome
Yeah!

Take the corner
Join the crash
Head lights
Headlines
Another junkie lives to fast
Lives way to fast
Fast
Fast
Ooh woah

Oo on I burn
Fuel is pumping engines
Burning hard, loose and clean
And on I burn
Churning my direction
Quench my thirst with gasoline

Just gimme fuel
Gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire

White nuckle tight!!

Give me fuel
Give me fire
My desire!

Oo on I burn
Fuel is pumping engines
Burning hard, loose and clean
And and on I burn
Turning my direction
Quench my thirst with gasoline
Gimme fuel
Gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire, ooh

On I burn!

2. The Memory Remains

Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane
But the memory remains

Heavy rings on fingers wave
Another star denies the grave
See the nowhere crowd
Cry the nowhere cheers of honor
Like twisted vines that grow
Hide and swallow mansions whole
And dim the light of an already
Faded prima donna

Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane
Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane
But the memory remains

Heavy rings hold cigarettes
Up to lips that time forgets
While the Hollywood sun sets
Behind your back
And can't the band play on
Just listen, they play my song
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black

Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane (insane)
Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane
Dance little tin goddess
NA NA NA NA NA (Marianne Faithfull)

Drift away
Fade away
Little tin goddess
Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Fade to black

Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane
Fortune, fame
Mirror, vain
Gone insane
But the memory remains

Ash to ash
Dust to dust
Face the facts
The memory remains
Faded prima donna
Dance little tin goddess, dance

NA NA NA NA... (Marianne Faithfull)

Say yes
Atleast say hello
Say yes
Atleast say hello

3. Devil's Dance

[History and Original lyrics]

Yeah!
I feel you too
Feel!
Those things you do
In your eyes I see a fire that burns
To free the you that's wanting through
Deep inside you know, the seeds I plant will grow

One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah, c'mon, c'mon, now take the chance
That's right
Let's Dance!

Snake!
I am the snake
Tempting!
That bite to take
Let me make your mind
Leave yourself behind
Be not afraid
I've got what you need, hunger I will feed

One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah, c'mon, c'mon, now take the chance
Ha, Ha
Come Dance!

Yeah, Come get's it

One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah c'mon, c'mon, now take the chance

Yeah!
I feel you too!
Feel!
Those things you do
In your eyes I see a fire that burns
To free the you, that's wanting through
Deep inside you know, seeds I plant will grow

One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah c'mon, c'mon now take the chance
That's right, let's dance

It's nice to see you here

Ha, ha

4. The Unforgiven II

Lay beside me, and tell me what they've done
And speak the words I want to hear, to make my demons run
The door is locked now, but it's opened if your true
If you can understand the me, then I can understand the you

Lay beside me, under the wicked sky
Through black of day, dark of night, we share this paralyze
The door cracks open, but there's no sun shinning through
Black heart scarring darker still, but there's no sun shinning through
No there's no sun shinning through
No there's no sun shinning...

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?

What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one that waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?

Come lay beside me, this won't hurt I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again
She lay beside me, but she'll be there when I'm gone
Black heart scarring darker still,
Yeah, she'll be there when I'm gone
Yeah, she'll be there when I'm gone
Dead sure she'll be there...

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?

What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one that waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?

(solo)

Lay beside me, tell me what I've done
The door is closed, so are your eyes, but now I see the sun
Now I see the sun
Yes, now I see it...

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you?

What I've felt, what I've known
So sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one that waits
The one who waits for you

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you? (so I dub thee unforgiven)

What I've felt
What I've known
I take this key (never free) and I bury it (never me) in you
Because your unforgiven too

Never free, Never me
'Cause your unforgiven, too

5. Better Than You

I look at you, then you me
Hungry and thirsty are we
Holding the lion's share
Holding the key
Holding me back because I'm striving to be
Better than you....(Better than you)
Better than you....(Better than you)

Lock horns
I push and I strive
Somehow I feel more alive
Bury the need for it
Bury the seed
Bury me deep
Where there's no will to be
Better than you....(Better than you)
Better than you....(Better than you)

Oh! Can't stop this train from rollin'
Oh, Yo! Nothin' brings me down
No, I can't stop this train from rollin'
Rollin' on and on
No, no! from rolling all day long

(solo)

Oh! Can't stop the train from rollin'
Oh, Yo! You can't take it down
No, never stop this locomotion
On, and on and on and
No, no! You can't bring me down
Cause I'm better than you....(Better than you)
Better than you....(better than you)
Better than you....(better than you)
Better than you....(better than you)
Much better than you

Better than you....(better than you)
Better than you....(better than you)
Better than you....(better than you)
Better than
Better than
Better than
Better than you

(solo)

Can't stop this train from rolling
Forever, on and on and on and on and on

Forever on and on, on

(Better than)
Better than you!
Better than you!

6. Slither

Don't go looking for snakes, you might find them
Don't send your eyes to the sun, you might blind them
Haven't I seen you here before?

Oo! Watch the puppets dancin'
Yeah, see the clowns fall down
Hey, tie your tap shoes tightly
Yeah, wear them into town

See you crawlin'
See you crawlin' in

Don't go looking for snakes, you might find them
Don't send your eyes to the sun, you might blind them
Haven't I seen you here before?
There ain't no heroes here

Hey, hey, hey!
Oo! Play the game so nicely
Oh, Check it's your move now
Yeah, we're standing in this jungle
Yeah, with serpents I have found

See you crawlin'
See you crawlin' in

Don't go looking for snakes, you might find them
Don't send your eyes to the sun, you might blind them
Haven't I seen you here before?
Have your heroes disappeared?

See you crawlin'
See you crawlin' in

So don't go looking for snakes, you might find them
Don't send your eyes to the sun, you might blind them
Haven't I seen you here before?
No there ain't no heroes here

Haven't I seen you here before?
No there ain't no heroes here

Don't go looking for snakes, you might find them
Yeah, haven't I seen you here before
Have your heroes disappeared?
Don't send your eyes to the sun, you might blind them

7. Carpe Diem Baby

Hit dirt
Shake tree
Split sky
Part sea

Strip smile
Lose cool
Bleed the day
And break the rule

Live win
Dare fail
Eat the dirt
And bite the nail

Then make me miss you
Then make me miss you

So wash your face away with dirt
It don't feel good until it hurts
So take this world and shake it
Come squeeze and suck the day
Come carpe diem, baby

Draw lead
Piss wine
Sink teeth
All mine

Stoke fire
Break neck
Suffer through this
Cheat on death

Hug the curve
Loose the time
Tear the map
And shoot the sign

Then make me miss you
Oh Yeah! Then make me miss you

So wash your face away with dirt
It don't feel good until it hurts
So take this world and shake it
Come squeeze and suck the day
Come carpe diem, baby

Live win
Dare fail
Eat dirt
Bite the nail

Strip smile
Loose cool
Bleed the day
And break the rule

Hug the curve
Loose the time
Tear the map
And shoot the sign

Then make me miss you
Come on, come on, then make me miss you

So wash your face away with dirt
It don't feel good until it hurts
So take this world and shake it
Come squeeze and suck the day
Come make me miss you
Come carpe diem, baby
Come carpe diem, baby

9. Where The Wild Things Are (aka "Martini")

So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world

Steal dreams and give to you
Shoplift a thought or two
All children touch the sun
Burn fingers one by one
By one

Will this Earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?

So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are
Toy soldiers off to war

Big eyes to open soon
Believing all under sun and moon
But does heaven know you're here?
And did they give you smiles or tears?
No, no tears

Will this Earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?

So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are
Toy soldiers off to war

You swing your rattle down
Call to arms, the trumpet is sound
Toy horses start the charge
Robots, chessmen standing gaurd
(The following are the "hidden" lyrics in the background of the above verse)
Hand puppets storm the beach
Fire trucks trapped out of reach
Hand puppets storm the beach
Fire trucks trapped out of reach
All clowns reinforce the rear
Sling shots fire into the air
All clowns reinforce the rear
Sling shots fire into the air
Stuffed bears hold the hill till death
Crossfire from the marionettes
Stuffed bears hold the hill till death
Crossfire from the marionettes
We shall never surrender

All you children touch the sun
Burn your fingers one by one

Will this Earth be good to you?
Keep you clean or stain through?

So wake up sleepy one
It's time to save your world
You're where the wild things are
Toy soldiers off to war
Off to war
Off to war

(solo)

So close your little eyes

10. Prince Charming

There's a black cloud overhead
That's me
And the poison ivy chokes the tree
Again it's me

I'm the filthy one on Bourbon St.
You walk on by
I'm the little boy that pushes hard
And makes them cry

There's a dirty needle in your child
Ha ha! Stick me!

Empty bottle
Still in hand
Still dead
Still me

I'm the suit and tie
That bleeds the street
And still wants more

I'm the .45
That's in your mouth
I'm the dirty dirty whore

Yeah! Look it's me!
The one who can't be free
Much too young to focus
But too old to see

Hey! Look it's me!
What no one wants to see
See what you've brought this world
Just what you wanna see

Hey Ma!
Hey Ma, Look it's me!

Yeah and he wants to be called father now
Me again, me
The marks inside your arms, spell me
Spell only me

I'm the nothing face
That plants the bomb
And strolls away
I'm the one who doesn't look quite right
As children play

Yeah! Look it's me
The one who can't be free
Much too young to focus
But too old to see

Hey! Look it's me
When no one wants to see
See what you've brought this world
Just what you wanna see

Hey Ma!
Hey Ma! Look it's me!

It's me

Look up to me
What to be
And what to fear
Look up to me
Look it's me
Like what you hear
See right through me
See the one who can't be free
See right through me
Look it's me what no one wants to see

Hey! Hey! Hey!

Hmmm, now, see the black cloud overahead
Ha! that's me!
Hmmm And this poison ivy chokes the tree
Again it's me!
And I'm the filthy one on Bourbon St.
You walk on by
And I'm the little boy that pushes, pushes
Makes them cry

Yeah! Look it's me!
The one who can't be free
Much too young to focus
But too old to see

Hey! Look it's me!
What no one wants to see
See what you've brought this world
Just what you wanna see

Hey Ma!
Hey Ma, Look it's me!

It's me
Hey Ma!
Hey Ma, Look it's me!

(solo)
(See right through me
Look up to me
See right through me
Look up to me)

11. Low Man's Lyric

(A.K.A. "My/Mine Eyes")

1, 2, 3
1
(humming)
My eyes seek reality
My fingers seek my viens
There's a dog at your back step
He must come in from the rain
I fall cause I let go
The net below has rot away
So my eyes seek reality
And my fingers seek my viens

The trash fire is warm
But nowhere safe from the storm
And I can't bear to see
What I've let me be
So wicked and worn
So as I write to you
Of what is done and to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'Cause low man is due
Please forgive me

My eyes seek reality
My fingers feel for faith
Touch clean with a dirty hand
I touch the clean to the waste

The trash fire is warm
But nowhere safe from the storm
And I can't bear to see
What I've let me be,
So wicked and worn

So as I write to you
Of what is done and to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'Cause low man is due
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
Please forgive me

So low the sky is all I see
All I want from you is forgive me
So you bring this poor dog in from the rain
Though he just wants right back out again

I cry, to the alley way
Confess all to the rain
But I lie, lie straight to the mirror
The one I've broken, to match my face

The trash fire is warm
But nowhere safe from the storm
Can't bear to see
What I've let me be
So wicked and worn

So as I write to you
Of what is done and to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'Cause low man is due
Please forgive me
Please forgive me

So low the sky is all I see
All I want from you is forgive me
So, you bring this poor dog in from the rain
Though he just wants right back out again

My eyes seek reality
My fingers seek my viens
(humming)

12. Attitude

Suppose I say
I'm never satisfied
Suppose I say
You cut some roots
To make the tree survive

Just let me kill you for a while
Just let me kill you for a smile
Just let me kill you once
I'm oh so bored to death

Oo, I hunger
I hunger
I eat!

Born into attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all your bullets in the fire
And run like hell

Why cure the fever?
What ever happened to sweat?

Suppose I say
The vultures smile at me
Suppose I say
I've sent them down
And they plan to pick you clean

As satisfaction this way comes
As satisfaction this way comes
As satisfaction's here and gone
Gone, Yeah gone again

Oo, I hunger
Oo, I hunger
I eat!

Born into attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all the your bullets in the fire
And stand there

Born into attitude
Twist mother tongue
Throw all the your bullets in the fire
And run like hell

Why cure the fever?
What ever happened to sweat?

(solo)

Just let me kill you for a while
Just let me kill you for a smile
Just let me kill you once for me
I'm bored to death

As satisfaction this way comes
As satisfaction this way comes
As satisfaction's here and gone
Gone, gone again

Yeah, I hunger
Oo, I hunger
I eat!

Born into attitude
Asleep at the wheel
Throw all the your bullets in the fire
And stand there

Born into attitude
Twist mother tongue
Throw all the your bullets in the fire
And run like hell

Why cure the fever?
What ever happened to sweat?

13. Fixxxer

Dolls of Voodoo
All stuck will pins
One for each of us
And our sins
So you lay us in a line
Push your pins
They make us humble
Only you can tell in time
If we fall or merely stumble

But tell me
Can you heal what father's done
Or fix the hole in mother's son
Can you heal the broken
Worlds within
Can you strip away
So we may start again
Tell me
Can you heal what father's done
Or cut this rope
And let us run
Just when all seems fine
And I'm pain free
Jab another pin
Jab another pin in me

Mirror mirror upon the wall
Break the spell or become the doll
See you sharpening the pins
So the holes will remind us
We're just the toys in the hands of another
And in time the neddles turn from shine to rust

But tell me
Can you heal what father's done
Or fix the hole in mother's son
Can you heal the broken
Worlds within
Can you strip away
So we may start again
Tell me
Can you heal what father's done
Or cut this rope
And let us run
Just when all seems fine
And I'm pain free
Jab another pin
Jab another pin in me
Jab it

Jab in the pins

(solo)

Blood for face
Sweat for dirt
3 X's for the stone
To break this curse
A ritual is due
I believe I'm not alone
Shell of shotgun
Pint of gin
To numb us up
To sheild the pins
Renew our faith
Which way we can
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love
To fall in love
To fall in love with life again

So tell me can you heal what father's done
Or fix this hole in mother's son
Can you heal the broken worlds within
Can you strip away so we may start again
Ya, tell me can you heal what father's done
Or cut this rope and let us run
Just when all seems fine
And I'm pain free
Jab another pin
Jab another pin in me
No more pins in me
No more, no more pins in me
No more, no more pins in me
No more, no more, no more
No, no, no
