I'm a street walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm
I'm a runaway son of the nuclear A-bomb
I am a world's forgotten boy
The one who searches and destroys
Honey gotta help me please
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby detonate for me
Look out honey, 'cause I'm using technology
Ain't got time to make no apology
Soul radiation in the dead of night
Love in the middle of a fire fight
Honey gotta strike me blind
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby penetrate my mind
And I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin', searchin' to destroy
And honey I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin', searchin' to destroy
Forgotten boy, forgotten boy
Forgotten boy said hey forgotten boy

Gimme danger little stranger
And I feel with you at ease
Gimme danger little stranger
And I feel your disease
There's nothing in my dreams
Just some ugly memories
Kiss me like the ocean breeze

Now if you will be my lover
I wish you were insane
But you can't be my master
I will do you anything
There's nothing left alive
But a pair of glassy eyes
Raise my feelings one more time

Find a little stranger
Say you're gonna feel my hand
say gotta gimme danger wild little stranger
Honey gonna feel my hand
Swear you gonna feel my hand
Swear you gonna feel my hand
Gimme danger (etc.)

Awwright! Woooohhhh!

A pretty face and a dirty love
I knew right away that i'd have to get my hooks in you
yeah yeah yeah
I'm running low on my memories
If you wanna make a fuzz, boy, you gotta be a tease, uhuh
I say yeah yeah

I need it all, baby, that's no lie
I need a lover with an alibi
I wanna fall into a love so sweet
Honey baby baby I'm hard to beat

Hot flesh and I touch alone
Smells in the air and I'm feeling so alone, uhuh
I say yeah yeah
Hallucination true romance
I need a love but I only got a face, uhuh
That ain't all

LyricsI'll tell ya honey it's a crying shame
All the pretty women look the same
I wanna fall into a love so sweet
Honey baby baby I'm hard to beat

Wooooh hey hey
Your pretty face is going to hell
Your pretty face is going to hell
Honey honey I can tell
Your pretty face is going to HELL!!!!
HELL!!!

A pretty face and a dirty love
I knew right away that i'd have to get my hooks in you
I say yeah yeah
I'm running low on my memories
If you wanna make a fuzz, boy, you gotta be a tease, uhuh and that ain't all
I say yeah yeah

I need it all, baby, that's no lie
I need a lover with an alibi
I wanna fall into a love so sweet
Honey baby baby I'm hard to beat

Woooh yeah hey
Your pretty face is going to hell....

Penetration
Penetrate me, penetrate me
I'm so fine so fine so fine
I get excited, I get excited
I'm alone, I'm so fine, pull a line

Every night outta town, every night outta town
I go now, go now, I pulsate
I'll be all fine, I'll be all fine, man
I'll take away, take away, be alright

[gibberish]

Penetration
Come and take me, come and take me
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'll stick it out, babe, I'll stick it out
I'll be all fine, every time, penetrate

Penetration

(burp)
Dance to the beet of the living dead
Lose sleep baby and stay away from bed
Raw power is sure to come a running to you
If you're alone and you got the shakes
So am I baby and I got what it takes
Raw power will surely come a running to you
Raw power got a healing hand
Raw power can destroy a man
Raw power is more than soul
Has got a son called rock and roll
Raw power honey just won't quit
Raw power I can feel it
Raw power baby can't be beat
Popping eyes and flashing feet
Everybody's always trying to tell me what to do
Don't you try
Don 't you try to tell me what to do
Look in the eye of the savage girl
Fall deep in love in the underworld
Raw power is sure to come a running to you
LyricsIf you're alone and you got the fear
So am I baby let's move on out of here
Raw power is sure to come a running to you
Raw power got a magic touch
Raw power is much too much
Happiness is guaranteed
It was made for you and me
Raw power honey just won't quit
Raw power I can feel it
Raw power honey can't be beat
Get down and kiss my feet
Raw power's got no place to go
Raw power honey
It don't want to know
Raw power is a guaranteed o.d.
Raw power is laughing at you and me
And this is what I want to know
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Can you feel it
Raw power! raw power!
Raw power! raw power!
Can you feel it

well i am your crazy driver.
honey i'm sure to steer you wrong.
i am dying in a story.
i'm only living to sing this song.
(just the same, baby...)

i need somebody, baby.
i need somebody, too.
i need somebody, baby.
just like you, just like you, just like you.

well i'm losing all my feelings.
and i'm running out of friends.
you know you lied to me in the beginning.
baby, and now you're gonna try to bring me.
try to bring me to the end.

i need somebody, baby.
i need somebody, too.
i need somebody, baby.
just like you, just like you, just like you.
Lyrics
well now it's time to leave this signal.
the interference is too strong.
yeah i got my reputation.
ride them airwaves, now too long

i need somebody, baby.
i need somebody, too.
i need somebody, baby.
just like you, just like you, just like you
