"Loveshine"

   
Oh, baby, walked a million miles climbin' up this mountain lookin' for your smile.

Oh, sugar, where's my baby been?
My heart is like the ocean waitin' for your love to sail on in.

Let my loveshine.
Let my loveshine in.
Oo, baby, won't you let my loveshine in.

Let my loveshine, love shine in.
Let my loveshine.
Let my loveshine.
Baby, won't you let my love, baby, won't you let my loveshine in, love shine in.
Oh baby, remember yesterday?
Spoke to me in riddles and mystery remains.

Oo, sugar, be my oldest friend.
You held me in my youth and you'll hold me in the end again, my friend.

Let my loveshine, love shine in.
Let my loveshine.
Let my loveshine.
Baby, won't you let my love, baby, won't you let my loveshine in, love shine in.

"Poison Apples"

   
Took a Greyhound Bus down to Heartattack and Vine with a fistful of dreams and
dimes.
So far out didn't know that I was in.
Had a taste for a life of slime.

When push came to shove, the music was the drug and the band always got to play.
Sex, smack, rock, roll, mainline, overdose.
Man, we lived it night and day.

We loved our Mott The Hoople, it kept us all so enraged.
And you loved us and you loved us and you loved us.
We're so fuckin' beautiful!

Pretty little poison apples, see the scars tattooed on our face.
It's your disgrace.
Pretty little poison apples, mama said, "Now don't you walk this way, just find
some faith."

Tabloid sleeze just maggots on their knees diggin' in the dirt for slag.
Moonshine, strychnine, speedball, shootin' lines.
Anything to push their rags.
Still we love our Mott The Hoople, it keeps us all so enraged.
And you love us and you hate us and you love us.
We're so fuckin beautiful!

Pretty little poison apples, see the scars tattooed on our face.
It's your disgrace.
Pretty pretty poison apples, mama said, "Now don't you walk this way, just find
some faith."

Blueprints for disaster.
You better not push me 'cause I'll bring you to your knees, oo, to your knees.
Blueprints for disaster.
You better not love me 'cause I'll bring you to your knees, mama, to your knees.

Pretty little poison apples, mama said, "Now don't you walk this way,
just find some faith, faith, faith, yeah."

Pretty little poison apples.
Pretty, pretty poison apples.

"Hammered"

   
Act like Jesus crucified again.
These four wall are closing in.
Who and what do you think you are, a rich mother fucker in a fancy car?
Concrete jackel suckin' on the past, goldcard junkie kissin money's ass.

You're the monkey on my back and it's time for you to go.
Hammered.
You're more harm than my old vice and I don't want to know.
Hey, Hey, you're hammer, hammer poor.

Now you're feelin low, tired and beaten.
Bring you some blades and daggers, pierce your soul.
Hell, ain't livin' six feet in the hole.
Get down on your knees in Hollywood time to Kiss some, some ass. Hey, Mr. big time
Hollywood, tell your story walkin' if you think you could.
Your money's runnin' low from your cocaine whores, nothin' but a rat scratchin' at
my door.
Hey, now I've said all I'm gonna say.
time will judge, see who fades away.

You're the monkey on my back and it's time for you to go.
Hammered.
You're more harm than my old vice and I don't want to know.
Hey, Hey, you're hammer, hammer poor.

Now you're feelin low, tired and beaten.
Bring you some blades and daggers, pierce your soul.
Hell, ain't livin' six feet in the hole.
Get down on your knees in Hollywood time to Kiss some, some ass.

"'Til Death Do Us Part"

   
Oh, when you look into my eyes, tell me what you see.
I don't think you'll ever realize the pride inside of me.

Oo, I've walked my walk, talked my talk and I've lived and died in my songs.
Temptation cuts so deep, it's fire still burns so strong.

You know I've lived a few mistakes and I stand by them.
Oo, it's me, myself, and I till death do us part, yeah.
Till death, till death do us part, yeah, yeah, No, no, no, no.

Yeah, sometimes my words may cut too deep and I step on a toe or two.
But I'm half dead and barely half alive, but I live by the truth.
Hey, but I live by the truth.
Til death, til death, do us part, do us part.
Hey, if you want to criticize, then you can't believe anything you read.
What you see is all of me.
Yeah, I've talked the talk, walked the walk.
Who thought I'd live this long?
Oh, this life's been hard like a switchblade, blind faith suicide.

You know I've lived a few mistakes and I stand by them.
Oo, it's me, myself, and I till death do us part, yeah.

"Welcome To The Numb"

   
Mister, mister push button junkie lookin for some dirt to buy.
Landslide, it's a corporation landslide waitin for a kiss from an atom bomb.

This situation's critical, my back's against the wall but we like it.
You're walkin' in our sleep and I can't feel at all.
I said, "Hey man, just gimmie some truth."

See what you wanna see, feel what you wanna feel.
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna deal, I don't wanna be any part of your stupid
mother fucker machine.
Do what ya wanna do, kill if ya gotta kill, 'cause I just don't believe your point
of view.

Welcome to the numb, fools.
Welcome to the numb.
Welcome to the numb.

People, did you ever feel like you're going insane?
Sister, I'm feelin pretty safe, dead in this home-made grave.

This situation's critical, have I lost my mind?
And I like it.
There's too much information, can you see it in my eyes?
I said, "Hey man, all I want is the truth." See what you wanna see, feel what you
wanna feel.
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna deal, I don't wanna be any part of your stupid
mother fucker machine.
Do what ya wanna do, kill if ya gotta kill, 'cause I just don't believe your point

I don't wanna know, I don't wanna deal, I don't wanna be any part of your stupid
mother fucker machine.
Do what ya wanna do, kill if ya gotta kill, 'cause I just don't believe your point

Welcome to the numb, fools.

"Smoke The Sky"

   
Smoke my hoochie, you say that I'm the Devil, reali T.H.C.

Marco Polo hailed it heaven, Socrates inhaled it, too.
Mister President, tell the truth.
You're the great exaggerators since 1932.
Telling evils of the reefer, but all thru time we've smoked the sky.

Smoke the sky.

When inside we'll smoke the sky.
When inside we'll smoke the sky.
When inside we'll smoke the, when inside we'll toke the, when inside we'll smoke
the sky.

Home grown vision compliments the senses, opens up my mind.
J.F.K. sold us freedom, or was it just a business toke?
63 went up in smoke.
He was the great seducer crawling from our T.V.s.
Breathed hope into our future, before he died, he smoked the sky,
Smoke the sky.

When inside we'll smoke the sky.
When inside we'll smoke the sky.
When inside we'll smoke the, when inside we'll toke the, when inside we'll smoke
the sky.

B.C. hailed it heaven, I inhaled it, too.
Reali T.H.C.
When inside we'll smoke the sky.

Smoke the sky.

When inside we'll smoke the sky.
When inside we'll smoke the sky.
When inside we'll smoke the, when inside we'll toke the, when inside we'll smoke
the sky.

"Droppin Like Flies"

   
A war zone in the streets, it's anarchy and siege.
We hope it goes away, graffition the walls in modern Babylon, nothing left to
save.
Oo, feel the rebels heed.
Revolution undermines belief.
My eyes have seen this shit before.
We're barely hangin' by the skin of our teeth.
We've all raped it, the future's wasted.
We can't save it now.

Oh, we're droppin; like flies.
Bye, bye.
You're droppin' like flies.

Hate is growing fast in a hazy cloud of crack, but it helps us fade away.
Some inner city queen French kisses his disease with one foot in the grave.
Oh, and this junkyard we call home is primed and ready for another war.
My, my, my, the children have no chance and these eyes have seen this all go down
before.
We've all raped it, the future's wasted.
Can we take it?
Is nothing sacred?
We can't save it now, yeah. I woke up late in a fresh dug grave with a conscience
in my brain.
I'm not here to save your world, but mine won't stay the same.

Oh, my, my, we're droppin' like flies.
Bye, bye, bye bye. You're droppin like flies.
We've all raped it, the future's wasted.
We can't save it.
Can you face it?
Selfish livin' selfish love.
Can you face it.
Can you face it, my son?
Oh, my son, yeah.
Hey!

"Driftaway"

   
Look inside the mirror, but I don't know who I see.
Smoke another cigarette, a smile holds back the tears.
These contradictions seem to be the story of my life.
A simple man with memories of those long lost golden days.
I close my eyes and slowly driftaway.

Misaway, yeah.
Never thought I'd make it just from playin my guitar.
Just a little smile always shelters me from pain.
Every time I start to slide, I wish upon a star.
The sun comes out and dries up all the rain.

I'm an honest man who refused the shade on a hot and lonely day.
I close my eyes and dream my life away.
Now I know that I can stop the rain.
Close my eyes and slowly driftaway.
Close my eyes and dream my life away.
Close my eyes and slowly driftaway.
Mistakes I've made remind me of the roads I shouldn't choose.
Never comes that easy when you've nothing left to lose.
I can't see the answers, tell me why am I so blind?
A tired man, I'll make the best of another lonely day.
I close my eyes and slowly driftaway.

Misaway, yeah.
Never thought I'd make it just from playin my guitar.
Just a little smile always shelters me from pain.
Every time I start to slide, I wish upon a star.
The sun comes out and dries up all the rain.

I'm an honest man who refused the shade on a hot and lonely day.
I close my eyes and dream my life away.
Now I know that I can stop the rain.
Close my eyes and slowly driftaway.
Close my eyes and dream my life away.
Close my eyes and slowly driftaway.

"Hypnotized"

   
Oh, everybody, do you hear the big bass drum?
Louder, louder
Yeah, it's gettin' in you
Like the needle from a gun
Deeper, deeper
Oh, we don't need it
Since we've taken to the lust
Once you've slept with the rhythm, baby
The danger is a must

You're hypnotized, you're tripnotized
Oh, don't you hear it call your name?
You're hypnotized, yeah

Hey, turn it louder, 'cause I want to feel the push
Harder, harder
Ooo, under your skin
Well, slidin' through your veins
Well, I've got a nasty habit, babe
I always do it again

You're hypnotized, you're tripnotized
Oh, don't you hear it call your name?
You're mesmerized

You're hypnotized, you're tripnotized
Oh, don't you hear it call your name?
You're paralysed, hypnotized
Oh, don't you hear it call your name?
You're tranquilized, yeah

"Babykills"

   
She's a revolution
Anarchy in hell on high heels
I get called the villain
Washin' down my love with her pills
Lips are speakin' chaos
But her eyes are
As blue as the sea
She carries Mother's Bible
Mixes valium with her beliefs
And you know she gets me high

I've seen flowers and razors in her hair
She's walkin' trouble with her innocence
I'll just sit here thinkin' on my window sill
She keeps me high, Miss Babykills

She's sugar but she's spicy
Licks the venom off her lips
Dresses like a school girl
Loves her poisoned fingertips
I just know I love her
Sent from up above for me
And you know she gets me high
I've seen flowers and razors in her hair
She's talkin' trouble with her innocence
I just sit here thinkin' on my window sill
She keeps me high, Miss Babykills

I've seen flowers and razors in her hair
She's walkin' trouble with her innocence
I just sit here thinkin' on my window sill
She takes me higher
Takes me higher

I've seen flowers and...
I've seen razors blades
I just sit here dreamin of my latest fill
She steals' my heart, Miss Babykills
