Def Leppard - Hysteria Lyrics
Women
Ooh we ooh
Ooh wee ooh
In the beginning
God made the land
Then He made the water and creatures, then He made man
He was born with a passion, love and hate
A restless spirit with a need for a mate
But there was somethin' that was missin', somethin' lost
So he came with the answer, here's what it cost
One part love, one part wild
One part lady, one part child
I give you
Women! women! - Lots of pretty women
Men! men! - They can't live without them
Women! women! - Lots of pretty women
Men! men! - They can't live without them
And in the garden, lust began
The animal instinct, the wanton man
She fed him with a hunger, an appetite
And fillin' with emotion he took a bite
It was one part love, one part child
One part lover, one part wild
I give you
[Repeat Chorus]
Skin on skin
Let the love begin
Women!
[guitar solo]
It was one part love, one part wild
One part lover, one part child
A whole lotta fire, a little bit of ice
A whole lotta somethin' you can't sacrifice
I give you
Hair, eyes, skin on skin
Legs - Legs
Thighs - Thighs
What's that spell?
(Spell? what's that spell?)
(What's that spell?)
What's that spell?
(What's that spell?)
(Women, women)
Oh! oh! oh!
Oh! oh! oh!
Women - Women
Women
Callin' every girl
Women women
All around the world
Women - Women!
Women
Oh, we can't live without them
Women women
[guitar solo]

Animal
A wild ride, over stony ground
Such a lust for life, the circus comes to town
We are the hungry ones, on a lightning raid
Just like a river runs, like a fire needs flame, oh
I burn for you
I gotta feel it in my blood, whoa oh
I need your touch, don't need your love, whoa oh
(And I want, and I need)
(And I lust, animal)
(And I want, and I need)
(And I lust, animal)
Cry wolf, given mouth-to-mouth
Like a movin' heartbeat in the witching hour
I'm runnin' with the wind, a shadow in the dust
And like the drivin' rain, yeah, like the restless rust
I never sleep
I gotta feel it in my blood, whoa oh
I need your touch, don't need your love, whoa oh
(And I want, and I need)
(And I lust, animal)
(And I want, and I need)
(And I lust, animal) huh, ah
Cry wolf, baby, cry tough
Gonna hunt you like an, an, an, an, an animal
Gonna take your love and run
I gotta feel it in my blood, whoa oh
I need your touch, don't need your love, whoa oh
(And I want, and I need)
(And I lust, animal)
(And I want, and I need)
(And I lust, animal)
(And I want, and I need)
(And I lust, animal)
(And I want, and I need) tame me, tie me
(And I lust, animal) make me your animal
(And I want, and I need) show me, stroke me
(And I lust, animal) let me be your animal
(Animal) and I want
(And I need, animal) ooh, ooh, ooh, animal (animal)

Love Bites
If you've got love in your sights
Watch out, love bites
When you make love, do you look in the mirror?
Who do you think of, does he look like me?
Do you tell lies and say that it's forever?
Do you think twice, or just touch 'n' see?
Ooh babe ooh yeah
When you're alone, do you let go?
Are you wild 'n' willin' or is it just for show?
Ooh c'mon
I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy
I know you think that love is the way you make it
So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it
No!
Love bites, love bleeds
It's bringin' me to my knees
Love lives, love dies
It's no surprise
Love begs, love pleads
It's what I need
When I'm with you are you somewhere else?
Am I gettin' thru or do you please yourself?
When you wake up will you walk out?
It can't be love if you throw it about
Ooh babe
I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy
[Repeat Chorus]
[guitar solo]
Ooh yeah
[Repeat Bridge]
Love bites, love bleeds
It's bringin' me to my knees
Love lives, love dies
[Repeat Chorus]
If you've got love in your sights
Watch out, love bites
Yes it does
It will be hell

Armageddon It
You better come inside when you're ready to
But no chance if ya don't want to dance
You're like four-letter words when you're ready to
But then you won't 'cause you know that you can
You got it, but are you gettin' it?
You say that love is won when you get some
But then your finger won't trigger the gun
You know you can't stop it, so don't rock it, you know you got it
Hey, but are you gettin' it?
Really gettin' it, come get it from me
(Gimme all of your lovin')
Every little bit (gimme all that you got)
Every bit of it (every bit of your lovin')
Oh, c'mon live a bit (never want it to stop)
Yeah, but are you gettin' it? (armageddon it)
Ooh, really gettin' it? (yes, armageddon it)
Yeah, doo-doo wop
You try comin' on when you need some
But then you don't 'cause you already did
Yeah, you jangle your jewels while your shakin' ya
And drive the pretty boys outta their heads
You got it, but are you gettin' it?
You flash you bedroom eyes like a jumpin' jack
Then play it pretty with a pat on the back
You know you can't stop it, so don't rock it
You know you got it
Hey, but are you gettin' it?
Ooh, really gettin' it, oh, come get it from me
(Gimme all of your lovin')
Every little bit (gimme all that you got)
Every bit of it (every bit of your lovin')
Oh, c'mon live a bit (never want it to stop)
Yeah, but are you gettin' it? (armageddon it)
Ooh, really gettin' it? (yes, armageddon it)
C'mon, Steve, get it
Take it, take it, take it from me
I got an itchy finger following me
Pull it, pull it, c'mon trigger the gun
'Cause the best is yet to come, I say
'Cause the best is yet to come
Are you gettin' it? Really gettin' it?
Are you getting it, really getting it?
Oh, come get it from me
(Gimme all of your lovin')
Every little bit (gimme all that you got)
Every bit of it (every bit of your lovin')
Oh, c'mon live a bit (never want it to stop)
(Gimme all of your lovin')
Oh, are you getting it? (gimme all that you got)
Oh, are you getting it? (every bit of your lovin')
Oh, little bit (gimme all that you got)
Little bit
You got to live it (gimme all of your lovin')
Oh, baby, mean it (gimme all that you got)
Come on and give it (gimme all of your lovin')
Oh, come on and give it (never want it to stop)
Oh, are you getting it? (gimme all of your lovin')
Ooh, are you getting it? (never want it to stop)
Oh, are you getting it (every bit of your lovin')

Gods Of War
Feelin' like it's all over, feelin' like there's no love
Feelin' like it's not easy, breathin' life in the dust
On a countdown to zero take a ride on the nightmare machine
There ain't gonna be heroes
There ain't gonna be anything
Oh
Here it comes, here comes the night
Here it comes, hell in the night
Here it comes, here comes the night
When we all fall down
When we walk into silence
When we shadow the sun
When we surrender to violence
Oh
Then the damage is done
Put away that gun!
I don't wanna be there
I don't wanna be anywhere
Oh!
[Repeat Bridge]
That's right!
We're fightin' for the gods of war but what the hell we fightin' for?
We're fightin' with the gods of war but I'm a rebel
[guitar solo]
And I ain't gonna fight no more no way!
On a countdown to zero
Take a ride on the nightmare machine
There ain't gonna be heroes
(Whoa)
There ain't gonna be anything
No!
[Repeat Bridge]
Don't ya know that's right!
[Repeat Chorus]
And (a) I ain't gonna fight no more
(Stop)
Stop fightin' for the gods of war
(Stop fightin' for the gods of war)
Yeah what the hell we fightin' for?
(What in the hell we fightin' for?)
We're fightin' with the gods of war
Heavy!

Dont Shoot Shotgun
Run for cover
(Run for cover)
Don't shoot! - Shoot!
She's so dangerous
(Shotgun!)
(Gun!)
(Don't shoot shotgun!)
Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right
Fallin' head over heals at the speed of light
Hey little miss heaven on earth
Whoa, won't you walk this way but I see a red alert
Oh, my senses say keep away
So don't shoot!
Don't shoot shotgun
Dream on nightmare
Touch 'n' go
Dove turned destroyer, she cut you up, she's a slave of love
Run for cover, she's so dangerous
Undercover, she's so shameless
Don't shoot shotgun
You got me bitin' my lip
Don't shoot shotgun!
Ya shootin' straight from the hip
So don't shoot shotgun
Shoot me, baby!
Ow!
Hit 'n' miss, flesh and blood
She's sweet and indiscreet, she can't get enough
A little midnight madness
Oh baby, you can't hide
So wild 'n' unpredictable
Step aside
'Cos you're, you're shooting wide
Run for cover, she's so dangerous
Undercover, she's so shameless
[Repeat Chorus]
Oh
Shake it, shake it!
Ah, take this, little hit 'n' miss
[guitar solo]
[Repeat Chorus]
Don't shoot it!
Don't shoot shotgun!
Shake it, shake it!
Aw, take this little hit 'n' miss
Ow!
(Don't shoot shotgun!)
Oh shoot it!
Don't shoot it!
Uh, Oh shotgun!
Shoot me, baby!
Ow!
Let it blow!
