Only way to feel the noise
Is when it's good and loud
So good I can't believe it
Screamin' with the crowd

Don't sweat it
Give it back to you
Don't sweat it
Give it back to you
Overkill
Overkill
Overkill

On your feet you feel the beat
And it goes straight to your spine
Shake your head, you must be dead
If it don't make you fly

Don't sweat it
Give it back to you
Don't sweat it
Give it back to you
Overkill
Overkill
Overkill

Know your body's made to move
And you feel it in your guts
Rock and Roll ain't worth the name
If it don't make you strut

Don't sweat it
Give it back to you
Don't sweat it
Give it back to you
Overkill
Overkill
Overkill

I can tell, seen before,
I know the way, I know the law,
Canґt believe, canґt obey,
Canґt agree with all the things I hear you say,
Oh no, donґt ask me why,
I canґt go on with all these filthy white lies, Stay Clean

Donґt you know, all the time,
You got yours and you know that Iґve got mine,
Grab a hold, donґt let go,
Donґt let them rob you of the only way you know,
Oh no, no-one else,
Got the right to make you sorry for yourself, Stay Clean

So you see, the only proof,
Of what you are is in the way you hear the truth,
Donґt be scared, live to win,
Although theyґre always gonna tell you itґs a sin,
In the end, youґre on your own,
And there is no-one that can stop you being alone, Stay Clean.

. . .


Move out it's time for someone else
Quit thinking only of yourself,
You're really a nasty piece of work,
You know you thought you were a hero but
you're really just a jerk,
On my way, you know I Won't Pay Your Price

You can't stop me dontcha even try,
Gonna stick my finger in your eye,
You don't deserve my admiration,
And I'll sling you out the window
if you give me aggravation,
On my way, you know I Won't Pay Your Price

I'm tired of listening to crap,
I'd rather stab you in the back,
I'm telling you the only real reason that
you ain't gonna get it is 'cos skunk is outta season,
On my way, you know I Won't Pay Your Price

Shut the door behind you when you go,
Why you're still here I don't really know,
I'm gonna count up to three and if you're still here
I'll get a gun and blow away your knees,
On my way, you know I Won't Pay Your Price

. . .


I'll Be Your Sister,
Be your lover yeah,
Be your mother,
If you need somebody.

If you need someone to love,
I'm the one you should be thinking of,
If you need somebody,
I'm your hand in glove

I'll be your lover,
Be your sister maybe,
I'll be your mother,
If you need it baby.

If you think that it's the end,
I'm gonna prove
I can come back again,
If you need somebody,
I'm your only friend.

. . .


A thousand nights, I've spent alone,
Solitaire, to the bone,
But I don't mind, I'm my own best friend,
From the beginning, to the end,
My life, my heart, black night, dark star, Capricorn

December's child, the only one,
What I do, is what I've done,
I realise, I get so cold,
When I was young I was already old,
My life, my heart, black night, dark star, Capricorn

I always knew, the only way,
Is never live, beyond today,
They proved me right,
They proved me wrong,
But they could never last this long,
My life, my heart, black night, dark star, Capricorn

. . .


Shut up, you talk too loud,
You donґt fit in with the crowd,
I canґt believe you exist,
Iґve crossed you right off my list,
Too much, too soon, youґre way out of tune,
No Class

Way out, youґre way out of line,
No buddy I canґt spare a dime,
Fade out, baby thatґs right,
No bark and even less bite,
Your perfect smile, betrays your lack of style,
No Class

Too late, you canґt catch up now,
You face the wrong way anyhow,
I know you ainґt got the brain,
To come in out of the rain,
Too bad, no magic, Iґm afraid youґre really tragic,
No Class

. . .


Hey babe don't act so scared
All I want is some special care
I'm on the run from some institution
All I want's a little consolation
And I can tell by your face
I'm a total disgrace
Let me inside your place
Move over for a Damage Case

Hey babe wait a minute stop
Don't run away don't call the cops
I ain't looking to victimise you
All I want to do is tantalise you
And I can tell by your face
I'm all over the place
I can tell by your face
Got no time for a Damage Case

Hey babe don't turn away
I'm here tomorrow I'm gone today
I don't even care what you think your game is
I don't even care what your name is
And I can tell by your face
You're all over the place
Let me inside your place
Move over for a Damage Case

. . .


Gonna show you what I'm all about
I'm gonna make your toenails curl
Gonna show you how to make me smile
I'm really into long legged girls

I was talking to you all night long
Every line was a favourite song
Gonna show you how to make me laugh
I'm gonna tear ya down

Gonna show you what I'm all about
I'm gonna shoot ya down tonight
I don't really wanna freak you out
But I'm gonna make ya feel all right

I was talking to you all night through
And I knew you were rolling me too
Gonna shake you 'til your lips turn blue
I'm gonna tear ya down

Gonna show you how to strut your stuff
I'm gonna make your dreams come true
Gonna show you how to change your luck
I'm really gonna do it to you

I was talking to ya hours and hours
I promised you hearts and flowers
I'll give you supernatural powers
I'm gonna tear ya down

. . .


Metropolis,
The worlds collide.
Ain't nobody could be on your side.

I don't care, I don't care

Metropolis
Is something new.
Ain't nobody got their eye on you.

I don't care, is nowhere.

Metropolis,
The worlds collide.
Ain't nobody on the other side.

I donґt care, Iґm not there.

. . .


Well I've never done nothing,
That's ever gonna shame my life.
Well I've never done nothing,
That's ever gonna shame my life.
Come around any time you like honey,
There ain't no shame in my bed at night.

Long legged lover,
I'm gonna rip you limb from limb.
Long legged lover,
I'm gonna rip you limb from limb.
Get you smashed as a rat in some bar,
Sink my claws into your velvet skin.

Harsh, cruel words babe,
They're gonna cut me like a knife.
Harsh, cruel words babe,
They're gonna cut me like a knife.
I don't care what the hell you call me,
But are ya still coming round tonight?

Well I've never done nothing,
That's ever gonna shame my life.
Well I've never done nothing,
That's ever gonna shame my life.
Come around any time you like honey,
There ain't no shame in my bed at night.
