On Your Feet or on Your Knees Lyrics
[Dee]. Heās all right. He plays faster than me. The lyrics on this song are⦠Read MoreĀ I was looking at the TV news
People everywhere blowing a fuse
People everywhere under the gun
Little kids dying, never had no fun
Human beings ain't got no brains
Think you're better but you're all the same
Think you're clever but you're all to blame
Here we are again in the same old frame
Shut up, I'm talking to you
It's on television, so it can't be true
And I can't play the game no more
Wake up and see it through
Kill the many to save the few
I know what the blind man sees
On your feet or on your knees
Headline terror, crime on rise
Half ain't true and the rest is lies
Same smile on the same old face
Same old horse with the same old race
I wouldn't smile if I was you
Don't relax, 'cause it ain't so new
Watch your back, light the light outside
Somebody coming that you just can't bribe
Shut up, I'm talking to you
It's on television, so it must be true
I can't believe their lies no more
Watch out, I'm coming through
Boogeyman gonna bite you too
I know what the blind man sees
On your feet or on your knees
Hey hey!
Stop
I was reading some magazine
It was written for human beings
Can't believe all the stuff I read
Human trash for the human head
You humans shouldn't be so proud
You humans shouldn't talk too loud
You humans just ain't too smart
It's enough to break my human heart
Shut up, I'm talking to you
Pay attention, 'cause I mean you too
And I will tell you something now
Your values ain't worth a dime
Human rights, just human crime
I know what the blind man sees
On your feet or on your knees
Hey hey
Burner Lyrics
7 ContributorsBurner LyricsRiots in the burning street, crystal night outside
Brutal music in the night enough to make you cry
Nobody knows how it is to scream and drown the world
I am the midnight snake to bite you little girls
Outside in the distance the city in the fire
See the houses burning down mile after mile
I don't think you know about your future yet
I don't think you're gonna like the one you're gonna get
Ghost rider in the sky
Burner
Lights outside my window, victims on the floor
Rats in all the bedrooms, thunder at the door
Nobody knows anything, kill and wear a smile
Here come the pirates, baby, don't you touch that dial
You ain't gonna hurt me, you won't put me down
This ain't no circus and I sure don't need no clowns
I will be the one that you can't be
I will see the things that you can't see
Demons blind your eyes
Burner
Beat me like a hammer, baby, stick me like a pig
Throw me to the lions, honey, wear me like a wig
I am not the only one to walk into the fire
I would rather burn than let them make me be a liar
I cannot be beaten, I cannot be like you
I cannot be otherwise no matter what you do
I am the voice of broken glass
I am the voice to drive you mad at last
I am the truth, the liar turned around
Burner

Death or Glory Lyrics
10 ContributorsDeath or Glory LyricsThis song is about soldiers that fight and die in wars. It references many different famous wars of history and describes the experiences of those who fought them.I saw the millions, the naked and the dead
I saw the city streets running bloody red
I saw a thousand bombers circle in the sky
I saw the firestorm fifty stories high
I saw a hundred thousand scream and burn
I saw the armoured wheels grind and turn
Universal soldier, doomed to live to tell
Fight and die, forever burn in bloody Hell
Death or glory, death or glory
March forever in the sound and fury
Death or glory, death or glory
Blood and iron, it's the same old story
I held the Iron Cross, first class with the swords
I marched with Hitler down the bloody road to war
I was at Jutland loading till the gun was hot
Killed at Trafalgar without firing a shot
I was at Moscow, burning in my tank
I was at Shiloh, marching in the ranks
I was a Sturmbannführer, fighting in Berlin
I was a Russian hero, dying for Stalin
Death or glory, death or glory
March forever in the sound and fury
Death or glory, death or glory
Blood and iron, it's the same old story
I swung a saber and I was a young Hussar
I was a Cossack, fighting for the Czar
I was a Viking, berserker from the north
A Roman gladiator, murdered just for sport
I was with Bonaparte, I died at Waterloo
I was a Frankish knight, a Polish Jew
I was a Spartan in the Trojan wars
I was a warrior for Crazy Horse
Death or glory, death or glory
March forever in the sound and fury
Death or glory, death or glory
The lone survivor but no comfort for me
Death or glory, death or glory
Executioner, judge and jury
Death or glory, death or glory
Blood and iron, it's the same old story

Born to Raise Hell Lyrics
[Intro: Lemmy]
Ah my, my
Alright
[Verse 1: Lemmy]
Listen up here, I'll make it quite clear
I'm gonna put some boogie in your ear
Shake and bop, don't you stop
Dance like a maniac until you drop
I don't mind, I don't mind
I can run a razor right up your spine
[Pre-Chorus: Lemmy]
What are you waiting for
What do you think you were created for
Show us you care, show us you dare
You don't know what happened, not if you weren't there
[Chorus: Lemmy, Ice-T and Whitfield Crane, Lemmy]
Born to raise hell, born to raise hell
We know how to do it and we do it real well
Born to raise hell, born to raise hell
Voodoo medicine, cast my spell
Born to raise hell, born to raise hell
Play that guitar just like a-ringing a bell
Take it or leave it
[Verse 2: Whitfield Crane, Lemmy, Ice-T, all]
Going for broke, rock 'til you choke
It don't matter if you drink or smoke
Speak through the beat, get up on your feet
Sweating like a hound dog, white as a sheet
Don't you be scared, don't you be scared
Everybody terrified, it don't seem fair
[Pre-Chorus: Lemmy]
What are you waiting for?
What do you think you were created for?
Out of your seat, blind in the heat
Do the nasty boogie, mama, stomp your feet
[Chorus: Lemmy, Ice-T and Whitfield Crane, Lemmy]
Born to raise hell, born to raise hell
We know how to do it and we do it real well
Born to raise hell, born to raise hell
Go back to zero, take a pill and get well
Born to raise hell, born to raise hell
Be a good soldier and die where you fell
[?]
[Guitar Solo]
[Breakdown: Lemmy]
Give it back, give it back, give it back
Ohh, stop!
[Verse 2: All, Lemmy, Ice-T, Whitfield Crane]
Born to raise hell, born to raise hell
We know how to do it and we do it real well
Born to raise hell, born to raise hell
Go on out and boogie 'cos you never can tell
Born to raise hell, born to raise hell
Be a good soldier and die where you fell
Born to raise hell, born to raise hell
We know how to do it and we do it real well
[Outro: Ice-T, Whitfield Crane]
Yeah, come on
Bob your head, fool
That's right, that's right
Bad Woman Lyrics
7 ContributorsBad Woman LyricsShoot me down, baby look at your move
I know you ain't got a thing to lose
Dancing fool, fight for breath
The way you look you scare a man to death
I can't speak, my heart's on fire
You're the focus of my desire
Can't be real, can't be true
Just like a virgin, make me feel brand new
I know you're a bad, bad woman
Turn around and you'll see me coming
I know you're a bad, bad woman
Good enough for me
Here I come baby, watch my smoke
I gotta get you and it ain't no joke
I hope your body ain't telling me lies
You bring a tear to my lying eyes
I wish I could, I wish I might
Get the wish that I wish tonight
Drive me crazy turn me inside out
I gotta have you baby, ain't no doubt
I know you're a bad, bad woman
Turn around and you'll see me coming
I know you're a bad, bad woman
Good enough for me
Step on it
Give it up baby, let me jump your bones
I'm fired up and I'm almost grown
I can't believe you want me too
Here I come honey, woop-dee-do
I know you're a bad, bad woman
One look and you set me running
I know you're a bad, bad woman
Good enough for me, hey
I know you're a bad, bad woman
Turn around and you'll see me running
I know you're a bad, bad woman
Good enough for me
Good enough
Hey hey
Liar Lyrics
5 ContributorsLiar LyricsThis song is about some dirty liar (obviously). Lemmy sings about all the ways that someone can piss him off; shoving religion down his throat (Do not presume to fool me with your tales of God), being untrue⦠Read More Liar, you take your hand from me
I'll tear it from your wrist, just take your hand from me
Liar, your mouth is ashes, dog
Do not presume to fool me with your tales of God
Liar, promises of Heaven now
You cannot truly think you are the seven now
Liar, and I will challenge you
All my life I swear that I will challenge you
I will be the watcher, and I will never sleep
Many miles before me, and promises to keep
Driving out the demons, and bring them all to trial
I see the face that cannot smile
Liar, you should be burning now
I know you are the grace and it is turning now
Liar, your words are filth and false
You are the vile partner in the final waltz
Liar, I will be rid of you
A good day in my life, I will be rid of you
Liar, I see your eyeless smile
There is no other thing upon this world so vile
I will be the hero, and I can do no more
I can be the hero, as I have been before
I can take you places that you have never seen
I can make you pleased that you are clean
Killer, do not presume I'm fooled
You kill the hearts of many but I'll break your rules
Killer, don't show your teeth to me
I'll pull your teeth and feed you with them, count on me
Killer, I am thy killer too
I am the frightful thing that always follows you
Liar, I am thy nemesis
I always knew one day that it would come to this
Why the world is wicked
I know the reason now
Why the world is wicked
I know that it's allowed
I can never leave it
The way it was before
I can never disobey the law
Lost in the Ozone Lyrics
[Bass Solo]
Alone and crying and a thousand miles astray
Alone upon the cruel sea, forsworn and cast away
I turned my face to God, but His face was turned away
Lost in the ozone, nothing left to say
Lost in the ozone, nothing left to say
Nothing left to say
Nothing left to say
Wash over me
Iām Your Man Lyrics
3 ContributorsIām Your Man LyricsBack to back, you see me now
Show me what you're hiding there
I can't move if I don't sing
I can't stand, I got no chair
Can't see me, I'm the man, ain't no joke
Can't see me, masterplan, up in smoke
Can't hear me, I'm so loud, suits me fine
Can't hear me, I ain't proud, all the time
Follow me but don't you move
Stop at nothing, show your teeth
I can see you, I ain't deaf
Two years later, twice a week
Can't see me, I'm the man, laid in bed
Can't see me, give a damn, Motƶrhead
Can't hear me, up your way, ring your chimes
Can't hear me, I can't stay, all the time
I can tell you it ain't me
I won't be no beast up there
Turn me round 'cause I can't dance
Be a spaceship, I don't care
Can't hear me, stand up straight, row my boat
Can't hear me, I can't wait, fishtail goat
Can't see me, on the game, ain't no crime
Can't see me, aeroplane, all the time
Devils Lyrics
5 ContributorsDevils LyricsHear my voice
Make your choice
Beat the drum
Hide the sun
Devils in my head tonight
All is wrong if it's not right
Take care
Whispers in the walls I hear
Nothing ever made quite clear
Beware
Go to Hell
Make me well
Show your hand
Make a stand
Angels in my heart tonight
Say the word and make it right
So dark
Angels flying in my dreams
All is never what it seems
Take heart
Speak my name
Feel no shame
Take your time
You are mine
Monsters in my eyes today
I can't make them go away
It's true
Strangers in the world, it seems
Nightmare visions, fever dreams
I dream of you
Angels in my heart tonight (ad lib.)
