"Jesus"
Jesus, won't you help me find my way
Won't you send me some money in the mail
Jesus, won't you let me drink one more
It helps me to ignore how much I have failed
I'm gettin' sick
gettin' ill
gettin' tired
gettin' fired
I'm gettin' killed
I'm gettin' chilled
I'm gettin' crazy
I'm gettin' lazy
I'm gettin' screwed
I'm gettin' used
I'm gettin' kicked
I'm gettin' tricked
I'm gettin' out
gettin' out
gettin' out
gettin' out
I'm gettin' ... high
I'm gettin' ... high
Jesus, I could keep my family
if You could just send me some money in the mail
Jesus, I don't mean to complain
but it gets cold, it gets lonely inside a cell
I'm gettin' sick
I'm gettin' ill
I'm gettin' tired
of gettin' fired
I'm gettin' killed
I'm gettin' chilled
I'm gettin' crazy
I'm gettin' lazy
I'm gettin' screwed
I'm gettin' used
I'm gettin' kicked
I'm gettin' tricked
I'm gettin' out
gettin' out
gettin' out

high, gettin' high
whoa-whoa-whoa
high, gettin' high

I'm gettin' killed
I'm gettin' chilled
I'm gettin' lazy
I'm gettin' crazy
I'm gettin' screwed
I'm gettin' used

I'm gettin' tricked
I'm gettin' out
gettin' out

"Star Baby"
Star baby, star baby, star baby
oh oh ...
Ooh, I feel a supersonic, supersonic, supersonic you know
You're so beautiful
You think you're from a UFO
You say your daddy was abducted by some aliens
You say your mother was impregnated by some cute Martian
You're insane, you know
But you're so beautiful
Star baby, star baby, star baby
oh oh ...
Ooh, I feel a supersonic, supersonic, supersonic you know
You're so beautiful

Star baby, star baby, star baby
oh oh ...
Ooh, I feel a supersonic, supersonic, supersonic you know
You're so beautiful
You think you're from a UFO
"Skinny Bones Jones"
Hoo hoo hoo hoo
yeah
Hoo hoo hoo hoo
yeah
What's up with this band
It's been around forever
Played New York City
before most the world was born
Made it big, made it bigger, made it biggest
Then it keeps on comin' back
all tattered and torn
Skinny bones Jones
Skinny bones Jones
Do you have to sell your souls
to stay bigger than gold?
Skinny bones Jones
Skinny bones Jones
Do you have to sell your soul
to be Rollin' Stones?
There can be no generation gap
as long as you're alive
We'll die before you do
This history is shown
When your skin falls off
It won't bother you a bit
You'll have brand new hits
Skinny bones Jones
Skinny bones Jones
Do you have to sell your souls
to stay bigger than gold?
Skinny bones Jones
Skinny bones Jones
Do you have to sell your souls
to be Rollin' Stones?
You make more money in a minute
than most men make in their lives
off the juke box alone
And when you're tired of abusin'
you get a blood transfusion
And you're back up and groovin'
for another show
Skinny bones Jones
Skinny bones Jones
Do you have to sell your souls
to stay bigger than gold?
Skinny bones Jones
Skinny bones Jones
Do you have to sell your souls
to be Rollin' Stones?
Hoo hoo hoo hoo...
"Lush"
Now, Sexy was shakin' off the top of the world with a vengeance
with eyes so crazy I thought there was some demon in 'er.
Spinnin' 'round like a yo-yo in some dyed purple go-go
Some spaced-out lunatic started screamin' for a solo
Turn off the juke box
Sexy wants to rock
She's got more tattoos
Than a bang bangin' buzzcock
Well, I got nothin' but time
And she said, "I've got you disillusion, Sugar,
and you've got mine."
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lu-u-ush
Drinkin' your disco
Doin' your go-go
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lu-u-ush
Drinkin' your disco
Doin' your go-go
Jean Genie said, "That scared thing's
gonna be fine when its mine.
Be shootin' to the moon soon,
Just gimme a little time.
I'll be sure to take this one away from the place
with a pen in one hand
and a bit of God's grace."
He said...
Turn off the juke box
Sexy wants to rock
She's got more tattoos
Than a bang bangin' buzzcock
And we got nothin' but time
And she said, "You guys you disillusion, Sugar,
and I've got mine."
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lu-u-ush
Drinkin' your disco
Doin' your go-go
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lu-u-ush
Drinkin' your disco
And then she started dancing like a
mad-hatted, star-gazin,' love-makin,'
nympho-killin,' psychotic tail-waggin,'
cloth-rippin,' body-whipper
Needless to say, we were dumbfounded
Hey, turn off the juke box
Sexy wants to rock
She's got more tattoos
than a bang bangin' buzzcock
We got nothin' but time
And she said, "I've got you disillusion,
and you've got mine."
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lu-u-ush
Drinkin' your disco
Doin' your go-go
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lush
I'm the Lu-u-ush
Drinkin' your disco
Doin' your go-go
Suckin' your disco ...
"Feel"
If that's how you feel
If that's how you feel
I could wear a dress
You could wear your high heels
If that's what you mean
If that's what you mean
I could be a schoolgirl
I could be thirteen
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And I, I, I could do anything
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And I, I, I could do anything
Yeah, yeah, yeah
If that does the trick
If that does the trick
I could wear lacy panties
and your red lipstick
If that's what you like
If that's what you like
I could be a bulldog
I could be a dyke
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And I, I, I could do anything
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And I, I, I could do anything
Yeah, yeah, yeah
If this is your girl
If this is your girl
I could find how she works
I could be your world
If that's what you want
If that's what you want
I could cut it off
and have a big white ...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And I, I, I could do anything
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And I, I, I could do anything
Yeah, yeah, yeah
For you
For you
For you
For you
"Rocket and a Bomb"
WARNING: This lyric contains what some might consider to be offensive language.
All I ever wanted
was a good job
some bus fare
a rocket and a bomb
Uh huh, yeah-heah
Had a dream I'd be all right
Had a nightmare I'd be crackin' up this 'caine
I lit your vision for a time
'til it snapped my spine
and bled me from your vein
It keeps pushin'
It keeps pushin' you away
All I ever wanted
was a good job
some bus fare
a rocket and a bomb
Uh huh, yeah-heah
It's not your fault I made you ill
From this open sore that spills pus in your name
I tried to fix on what I feel
Beg another meal
and shame your pride again
It keeps pushin'
It keeps pushin'
It keeps pushin' you away
It keeps pushin'
It keeps pushin'
It keeps pushin'
It keeps pushin' you away
All I ever wanted
was a good job
some bus fare
a rocket and a bomb
Uh huh, yeah-heah
Shit (12x)

"Speeder Mode"
Headin' for the bathroom door
to kick it up a little more
She loves to move fast
Between the lines on the road
she gets it up to speeder mode
She is blowin' my cash
Hey na (8x)
Higher than a satellite
Faster than the speed of light
She loves to move fast
She takes all she wants from me
Don't ever be her enemy
She is kickin' my ass
Hey na (16x)
And she's never comin' down
And she's never slowin' down
As long as we're around
She's never slowin' down
hoo...
Hey na (16x)
And she's never comin' down
And she's never slowin' down
As long as we're around
And she's never comin' down
And she's never slowin' down
As long as we're around
She's never slowin' down

She loves to move fast
"Kitty Courtesy"
Kitty, Kitty Courtesy
Won't you please show me

Kitty, Kitty Courtesy
It smells kinda human
Tell me that its not
She never lets me in
whenever she's cookin'
Don't you find that kinda queer?

"Little Fighter"
Fourteen when she took her first one
She got addicted to the taste of some
Eight years later and a truckful more
on the other side when she got bored
Some man said, "Hey, it's a big surprise."
There's a great big mouth, a great big lie
There's a handful of this, a throatful of that, and
she gets it done, it's a bloody mess
oh no
oh no
oh no
he said, "Little Fighter's never ever gonna stop
till she breaks your skull
standin' on top of it."
oh no
oh no
oh no
he said, "Little Fighter's never ever gonna leave you alone
till she runs your world
she burns your home."
And I said, "I want nothin' to do
with some jacked-up beauty
with construction tools,
Weird ideas I've yet to dream
of animals and food, and shockin' things.
I came here just to be alone;
to drink my problems till they get stoned
I've got my money for your little fling
And then he said, "She's free for the evening."
oh no
oh no
oh no
he said, "Little Fighter's never ever gonna stop
till she breaks your skull
standin' on top of it."
oh no
oh no
oh no
he said, "Little Fighter's never ever gonna leave you alone
till she runs your world
she burns your home."
oh no
oh no
oh no
oh no
oh no
oh no
oh no
oh no
oh no
oh no
oh no
he said, "Little Fighter's never ever gonna stop
till she breaks your skull
standin' on top of it."
oh no
oh no
oh no
he said, "Little Fighter's never ever gonna leave you alone
till she runs your world
she burns your home."
oh no
oh no
oh no
he said, "Little Fighter's never ever gonna stop
till she cracks your skull
standin' on top of it."
woo hoo hoo...
Little Fighter, Little Fighter
"Suicide Sex Doll"
I met a man who had no shoes
He slumped at the bar into his booze
Mumbled that he fought in the war
He said that he'd love to kill some more
Hey, old man, it's time to go
Someone yelled, "He's drunk you know."
He said, "I don't love you at all.
I'm going home to my suicide sex doll."
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
He said, "Sometimes she falls on knives."
He said, "She's got a lot of lives."
He said, "I don't need girls at all.
I'm going home to my suicide sex doll."
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
Aaah, suicide sex doll
Suicide sex doll
sex... doll...
sex... doll...
sex... doll...
sex... doll...
sex... doll...
sex... doll...
sex... doll...
sex... doll...
Aaah, suicide sex doll
Suicide sex doll
Aaah, suicide sex doll
Suicide sex doll
"Jane"
Jane's gone crazy again
She said, "Everyone needs a make-believe friend."
We just laughed and said, "Is his name Tarzan?"
She said, "No, it's Joe,
and he's my friend."
Jane's gone crazy before
It happened when her favorite band was no more
She never was the real Jane, that's for sure
... used to say she was, 'cause her name is Jane
Jane
We miss you
Boo hoo
We miss you
Boo hoo
Just the other day she busted up her neighbor's record collection
Just the other day they were listenin' to Bernie & Elton
Just the other day they were wonderin' whatever happened
to Benny & the Jets
Jane was the cutest thing we'd ever seen
All my friends wanted to get in line for that thing
But Jane and Joe took a dive you know
in front of a passing train
Boo hoo
We miss you
Boo hoo
We miss you
We miss you
Just singin' about Jane
"Cruel"
Don't believe a word she tells you
when she's gonna show you how to live
Down in her heart she wants to drain you
like a vampire on the neck of your soul
You'll have nothing to show
After you give give give
(Cru - cru - cruel)
That chick's as cruel as they come
(Cru - cru - cruel)
She chews men up and spits 'em out for fun
(Cru - cru - cruel)
She cracked my knuckles like a parochial school nun ...
... of her friends want anything to do with her wicked ways
Maybe get a couple dates now and then
after they pick up a has-beens
She turned a friend of mine gay gay gay
(Cru - cru - cruel)
That chick's as cruel as can be
(Cru - cru - cruel)
She chews men up and spits 'em out like a loogie
(Cru - cru - cruel)
She cracked my head and had the audacity to charge... me...
Hey punk, you're gonna listen to reason
Aw, who cares?
You're so big, bad, and original
Don't you know everyone's a rip-off
Soon you'll be dumped like the rest of us
on a vacant street
half-naked in your underwear
lookin' for some rope and a tree
lyin' in a puddle of pee and vomit
Come on, get off it
You were in love
You were in love
You were in love
"Double"
you're sittin' there wondering why is it like this
and the whole world's crazy and the earth is sick
and someone's yelling from the bathroom door
the toilet's overflowing on the floor
and the one by the phone says i cannot hear
while the one by the jukebox spills his beer
and the man on the pinball hits sixteen mil
someone ducks behind the counter to pop a pill
and you reach in your pocket to see if there's more
and the biggest bill falls so you're left with four
and you're too gone to look but you still try
then you see it in the hand of a great big guy
who looks just like he'd kill you fast
and you think for a minute
you let it pass
and the stool falls over when you set back down
it bumps a mean pool shooter from across the town
he misses his shot - it's all on you
and with your last four bucks you know what you'll do
sorry man can i buy you a drink
and he shakes his head and says
make it a double
and the next thing you know you wake up at home
and the little one there won't leave you alone
she's awake and hungry
she needs some potty help
and you remember what happened last time she tried it by herself
and your wife says hurry, we're late for church
and you can barely see
and your head still hurts
and the preacher starts preaching
and you feel remorse
he's got five little kids and a big divorce
and your wife looks down and says she don't know how
he's been her guiding light for ten years now
and his marriage is over, it's barely alive
and how in the hell will ours ever survive?
"Rock and Roll"
I've got my racing stripe
You've got your OJ knife
C'mon baby, let's rock and roll
Uf I'm the one that drinks too much
How come you're throwin' the punch?
C'mon baby, let's rock and roll
Together we could save the world
Together we could heal the bay
Together we could end it all
Drivin' 85 into a wall
You've got your PMS
I got under arrest
C'mon baby, let's rock and roll
I black out in re-ocurrents
but you want my life insurance
C'mon baby, let's rock and roll
I've got my racin' stripe
You've got your OJ knife
C'mon baby, let's rock and roll
"Junkie"
