Motorhead - We Are Motorhead Album Lyrics

See Me Burning

What's the matter, baby
What a wicked smile
You look like the ghost of Cinderella
You look like you'd go a country mile
My, my, my, my, you're coming on strong
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Gonna burn the whole world down
See me burning...

Where's the action honey?
Speak and tell me true
Even if you don't know what I'm saying
You look like you know the ones who do
My, my, my, my, you really fetch my bone
You're the one, you're the one
Shake your ass, bring it on
See me burning...

What's the matter, baby?
Don't you wanna play?
Come on over later, bring your sister,
I swear to you she won't be in the way
My, my, my, my, I wanna go for broke
Come on down, come on up
I got the magic, I can change your luck
bye bye baby, bye bye
I gotta move on down the road
Stand your ground, stand your ground
Don't forget me and I'll see you round
See me burning, see me burn

Slow Dance

Woman, what's your name?
I know you from somewhere
Vixen, playing games
Make me think that you care
I know what you're thinking
Thinking that you're too cool
And you know what I'm thinking
Just another poor fool...

Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Show me you're a mover
Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Dancing all alone
Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Come a little closer
Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Drive us all crazy
But I'd rather drive you home

Woman, orgasmatron
Drive me out of my mind
Teaser, getting it on
Giving me a hard time
You know what I'm thinking
Thinking you look so fine
I know what I'm thinking
Wishing you were all mine

Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Show me you're a mover
Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Fire in my blood
Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Come a little closer
Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Don't you say I'm bad baby
You make me feel so good

Woman, you got the moves
I wish you'd give it all up
Lover, whatcha gonna do
Gonna bring me bad luck
I got half the questions
And you got half the answers
I know you know, and you know what?
You sure some kind of dancer

Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Show me you're a mover
Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Tell me what you like
Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Come a little closer
Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Show me something new
Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
Keep it under cover
Slow dance, slow dance, slow dance
If I could do it over, then I'd do it over you...

Stay Out Of Jail

Still watching the sky
We ain't sure of you yet
New in town, been around
Heartbreaker for sure
Maybe running from the law
Just passing the time
Just moving down the line
Not time to fall, no time to fail
No time for anything at all
Stay out of jail...

Still facing the door
Just watching the street
City born, ripped and torn
Still turning tricks
Enough to make you sick
Just passing the buck
You might be real bad luck
Not time to fall, no time to fail
No time for anything at all
Stay out of jail...

Can't see you right now
We ain't got the time
Bad news, stand accused
A fool in drag, got your nose in a bag
Whacked out of your head
Y'all remember what I said
No time to fix
No time to bail
No time for one last call
Stay out of jail...

Out To Lunch

When you got it, you know you got it
When it's gone, you know you lost it
Nobody ever switched your switch
Nobody ever scratches your itch
Out of time, serves you right
Where you gonna sleep tonight
Out of time, blinding light
Now you're gonna feel the bite...

Turned around again, turned around again
Turned around again
Out for blood, out for blood
Out to lunch and no damn good...

If you need it, you must believe it
When it's gone you can;t retrieve it
Can't see where it all went wrong
You don't know what's going on
Out of time, serves you right
Where you gonna sleep tonight
Out of time, blind at night
Now you're gonna feel the bite

Turned around again, turned around again
Turned around again
Out for blood, out for blood
Out to lunch and no damn good...

When it's on, you know it's on
When it bites, you know you're wrong
Don't feel good about yourself
Don't know if you're someone else
Out of time, serves you right
Where you gonna sleep tonight
Out of time, blind all right
Now you're gonna feel the bite

Turned around again, turned around again
Turned around again
Out for blood, out for blood
Out to lunch and no damn good...
Turned around again, turned around again
Turned around again
Out for blood, out for blood
Out to lunch and no damn good...

Wake The Dead

When your name is spoken
Then Your soul awakes as well
And there is n limit to the power of the spell
You can never leave it
You can never let it lie
You must find the speaker
For one of you must die

The name, the name, the name, the name's the same
All your lives are on the line
All your lives are on the line
And all your life you know you're dying

What you know, you must not tell
What you know, you must not sell
All the secrets you can keep
All the lies you cannot speak
Everybody steals your time
Thousand voices in your head
Everybody, everybody
Shouting fit to wake the dead

When you see the devil
Then you're looking for relief
And there is no relief
And there is no justice
Keep your tongue between your teeth
You can be the devil
But you cannot count the cost
All your time is wasted
All your love is lost

The name, the name, the name's the same
Play the game
You can never be the one
You can never be the one
When you know all your love is gone

What you know, you must not tell
What you know, you must not sell
All the secrets you can keep
All the lies you cannot speak
Everybody steals your time
Remember me, what I said
Everybody, everybody
Shouting fit to wake the dead

When you are alone here
In the houses of the blind
Don't you ever wonder what happened to the time?
You cannot regain it
You cannot bring it back
Stretched out on the rack

The name, the name, the name's the same
The name, the name's the game
You will never know the truth
You will never know the truth
We both know you will never look

What you have is yours, my friend
You will never see the end
All your future gone to hell
All your past an empty shell
You can;t keep upon your secret shelf
You are not the Antichrist
You are not the Lord of Flies
You are not important now
You are not the one to dread
Everybody, everybody
The name, the name's the game

One More Fucking Time

All life is a mystery,
All things come to he who waits
All things just a twist of fate
It's just a state of mind
All your time is not your own
It's real hard to find out why
It's real hard to say good-bye
To move on down the line...

Both your eyes wide open
You see the shape I'm in
It wasn't of my choosing
It's only bones and skin
And I will plead no contest
If loving you's a crime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time

All your life is in your head
All you dreams are in your sleep
And if your dreams are hid too deep
They're just a waste of time
When you try to chase the dream
You never seem to know the time
You never recognize the signs
And nothing's what it seems

Both your eyes wide open
You see the shape I'm in
It wasn't of my choosing
It's only bones and skin
And I will plead no contest
If loving you's a crime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time

And if I would have been a bad man
You would have seen the good in me
You would have seen the other
The good man I could be
But since I am a good man
The same was all the same
Nothing I could do, nothing I could do

All life is a mystery,
All things pass you by in time
All things just a perfect crime
It's just the way we are
All instincts let you down
It's not a case of love in vain
It's not a case of love insane
It's enough to break your heart

Both your eyes wide open
You see the shape I'm in
It wasn't my idea
That I be the one to sin
And so all those years together
Weren't worth a fucking dime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time
And so all our years together
Weren't worth a fucking dime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time
And so all our years together
Weren't worth a fucking dime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time

Stagefright / Crash And Burn

Flying circus on the road
Burn like fire, blind and cold
Stagefright, stagefright, oh baby
Not me, not me, not me
Stagefright, stagefright, oh man
Never got me
Crash and burn,
Crash and burn, drive on
Crash and burn,
Crash and burn, we're gone

Cheat the devil, live so long
Burn the mission, sing your song
Stagefright, stagefright, yo momma
Not me, not me, not me

Stagefright, stagefright, go back
That's where I wanna be

Crash and burn, crash and burn, drive on
Crash and burn, crash and burn, we're gone

Stagefright, stagefright,
Walk the line, love the shoes
Tattooed lady, needle blues
Stagefright, stagefright, oh baby
Not me, not me, not me
Stagefright, stagefright, get down
Something came over me

Crash and burn, crash and burn, drive on
Crash and burn, crash and burn, we're gone
Crash and burn, crash and burn, drive on, drive on,
Drive on, we're gone

(Wearing Your) Heart On Your Sleeve

Clock is still ticking
Why don't you listen?
Ain't got the time that you had yesterday
Can't be so blind, way out of line
Thinking the world wants to hear what you say
Nobody ever knows why
Nobody ever knows who
Nobody sees that we're all on our knees
Looking for reasons to do what we do
Hey, what the hell
Get out of your shell
Time to get back to when truth was all true
Get me some danger
Get me a stranger
Time to be counted and pay up my dues
Stand or fall
Get ourselves something that we can believe
Fight or crawl
Use what you find in yourself to succeed
Stand or fall
Wearing your heart on your sleeve

Politics suck, you'll be shit out of luck
If you ever mess with the methods they use
No way to doubt, three strikes you're out
You against them, it's your freedom you lose...
Nobody questions the law
Nobody questions the man
Nobody cares 'cos nobody knows where
We go to so we can kick out the jams
Hey what the hell
You know yourself well
Get back to your honor and pride
Time for some slamming
Time for some jamming
Take us away from the snare of their lies

Stand or fall
Get ourselves something that we can believe
Fight or crawl
Use what you find in yourself to succeed
Stand or fall
Wearing your heart on your sleeve

We're on the run, we're under the gun
Sneaking and hiding, away from the sun
Breaking the law, don't know what for
Our generation is made up of whores

Get out of town, get out of jail
Nobody here gonna make us our bail
Don't really care that my life isn't fair
Hard on your head in the electric chair
Out of your mind, deaf, dumb and blind
Don't know how people can be so unkind
Grown up too soon, grown up too soon
Too many wolves looking up at the moon

Way too clean, too fucking healthy, you know what I mean
Way too rich, every executive son of a bitch
Way too mean, they're all to eager to feed the machine
Way too smart, gonna come down and break all of our hearts
Way too slick - way they schmooze, like to making me sick
Time to leave, wearing your heart on your sleeve
Wearing your heart on your sleeve

We Are Motorhead

We shoot power to your heart, a mighty thunderbolt
We charge all batteries, we save your soul
We don't know when we're licked,
But we turn lead into gold
We know alchemy, we bring you rock and roll

We are the ones you love, or we're the ones you hate
We are the ones always too early or too late
We are the first and we just still might be the last
We are Motorhead - born to kick your ass

We bring the firestorm to brighten up your life
We mend all broken hearts, we cure all pain
We bring you attitude and razor teeth to bite
We bring machine gun law and we're the ones to blame
We are the ones you need, the ones that you despise
We are the ones who wanna poke you in the eye
We are the future, baby, used to be the past
We are Motorhead and we don't have no class...

We bring you UFOs, saucers in the sky
We shoot you full of noise, we aim to kill
We burn like motherfuckers, spit right in your eye
We fight authority, we glorify free will
We are the ones you heard of, but you never heard
We are electric prophets, here to twist the world
We are the flame at night, the fire in the trash
We are Motorhead, we are Motorhead
We are Motorhead, we are Motorhead
We are Motorhead, we are Motorhead
