Hello Hooray
Hello! Hooray! Let the show begin, I've been ready.
Hello! Hooray! Let the lights grow dim, I've been ready.
Ready as this audience that's coming here to dream.
Loving every second, ev'ry moment, ev'ry scream.
I've been waiting so long to sing my song
And I've been waiting so long for this thing to come.
Yeah - I've been thinking so long I was the only one.
Roll out! Roll out with your American dream
and its recruits,
I've been ready.
Roll out! Roll out with your cicus freaks and hula hoops,
I've been ready.
Ready as this audience that's coming here to dream.
Loving every second, ev'ry moment, ev'ry scream.
I've been waiting so long to sing my song
And I've been waiting so long for this thing to come.
Yeah - I've been thinking so long I was the only one.
I can stand here strong and thin.
I can laugh when this thing begins.
God, I feel so strong, I feel so strong,
I'm so strong, I feel so strong,
So strong,
God, I feel so strong, I am so strong.
Raped And Freezin'
Finally got a ride, some old broad down from Santa Fe.
She was a real go-getter.
She drawled so sweetly,
"I think, child, that things'll get better."
"Yes, I read the Bible," she said, "I wanna know of you."
We pulled off the highway, night black as a widow.
Hey, I think I've got a live one,
Hey, I think I've got a live one, Yeah, Yeah,
I think I've got a live one.
Felt like I was hit by a diesel or a greyhound bus.
She was no baby-sitter.
"Get up, sugar, never thought you'd be a quitter."
I opened the back door, she was greedy.
I ran through the desert, she was chasin'.
No time to get dressed, so I was naked,
stranded in Chihuahua.
Hey, I think I've got a live one,
Hey, I think I've got a live one,
Hey, hey, I think I've got a live one,
Alone raped and freezin',
Alone cold and sneezin',
Alone down in Mexico,
Alone.
Elected
I'm your top prime cut of meat, I'm your choice,
I wanna be elected,
I'm your yankee doodle dandy in a gold Rolls Royce,
I wanna be elected,
Kids want a savior, don't need a fake,
I wanna be elected,
We're all gonna rock to the rules that I make,
I wanna be elected, elected, elected.
I never lied to you, I've always been cool,
I wanna be elected,
I gotta the vote, and I told you 'bout school,
I wanna be elected, elected, elected,
Hallelujah, I wanna be elected,
Everyone in the United States of America.
We're gonna win this one, take the country by storm,
We're gonna be elected,
You and me together, young and strong,
We're gonna be elected, elected, elected,
Respected, selected, call collected,
I wanna be elected, elected.
Billion Dollar Babies
Billion dollar baby
Rubber little lady, slicker than a weasel,
Grimy as an alley
Loves me like no other lover.
Billion dollar baby
Rubber little monster, baby, I adore you.
Man or woman living could't love me like you, baby.
We go dancing nightly in the attic
While the moon is rising in the sky.
If I'm too rough, tell me,
I'm so scared your little head will come off in my hands.
I got you in the dimestore,
No other little girl could ever hold you
Any tighter, any tighter than me, baby.
Billion dollar baby
Reckless like a gambler, million dollar maybe
Foaming like a dog that's been infected by the rabies.
We go dancing nightly in the attic
While the moon is rising in the sky.
If I'm too rough, tell me,
I'm so scared your little head will come off in my hands.
Million dollar baby
Billion dollar baby
Trillion doller baby
Zillion dollar baby
Unfinished Sweet
Candy everywhere, got chocolate in my hair,
Aching to get me.
Sticky sweet suckers in the Halloween air,
Aching to get me.
Saint Vitus dance on my molars tonight,
Aching to get me.
Aching to get me, get me, oh...
Take it to the doc, I guess he ought to know,
La, la, la, da.
Which ones can stay, which ones gotta go.
He looks in my mouth and then he starts to gloat.
He says my teeth are O. Ko.,
But my gums got to go.
Oh oh...
I come off the gas but I'm still seeing spies,
Aching to get me.
I can see them all through a glassy pair of eyes,
Aching to get me.
De Sade's gonna live in my mouth tonight,
La, da, da, da, da,
And the rotten tooth fairy is satisfied,
La, da, da, da, da,
Aching to get me, to get me oh...
No More Mister Nice Guy
I used to be such a sweet, sweet thing
'Til they got a hold of me.
I opened doors for little old ladies,
I helped the blind to see.
I got no friends 'cause they read the papers.
They can't be seen with me and I'm gettin' shot down
And I'm feeling mean.
No more Mister Nice Guy,
No more Mister Clean,
No more Mister Nice Guy,
They say he's sick, he's obscene.
I got no friends 'cause they read the papers.
They can't be seen with me and I'm gettin' shot down
And I'm feeling mean.
No more Mister Nice Guy,
No more Mister Clean,
No more Mister Nice Guy,
They say he's sick, he's obscene.
My dog bit me on the leg today.
My cat clawed my eye.
My mom's been thrown out of the society circle,
My dad's had to hide.
I went to church incognito.
When everybody rose, the Reverend Smith,
He recognized me,
Punched me in the nose.
No more Mister Nice Guy,
No more Mister Clean,
No more Mister Nice Guy,
They say he's sick, he's obscene.
Generation Landslide
Please clean the plates, dear.
The Lord above can see ya.
Don't you know people are starving in Korea?
Alcohol and razor blades and straight pins and needles,
Kindergarten people - they use 'em, they need 'em.
Over-indulging machines were their children.
There wasn't a way down on Earth to cool 'em.
'Cause they look just like humans at Kresges and Woolworths.
But decadent brains were at work to destroy.
Brats in battalions were ruling the streets,
Sayin' generation landslide closed the gap between 'em.
And I laughed to myself at the mean and the ladies
Who never conceived of us billion dollar babies.
Militant mothers hiding in their basement
Using pots and pans as their shields and their helmets.
Molotov milk bottles heaved from pink high chairs,
While Mothers' Lib burned birth certificate papers.
Dad gets his allowance from his sonny, the dealer,
Who's pubic to the world but involved in high finance.
Sister's out 'til five doing bankers' son's hours.
But she owns a Maserati that's a gift from his father.
Stopped at full speed at a hundred miles per hour.
The Colgate invisible shield finally got 'em.
And I laughed to myself at the mean and the ladies
Who never conceived of us billion dollar babies.
Sick Things
Sick things in cars rotate 'round my stars.
Sick things, my things, my pets, my things -
I love you.
Things, I see as much s you love me, you things are
heavenly when you come worship me.
You things are chilled with fright for I am out tonight.
You tell me where to bite, you whet my appetite.
I eat my things, what love it brings,
Come here, my things, don't fear my little things.
Things, I see as much s you love me, you things are
heavenly when you come worship me.
You things are chilled with fright for I am out tonight.
You tell me where to bite, you whet my appetite.
Sick things in cartridge tapes my stars.
Sick things, play things, pretty things, pretty things,
my things.
Things, I see as much s you love me, you things are
heavenly when you come worship me.
You things are chilled with fright for I am out tonight.
You tell me where to bite, you whet my appetite.
Mary-Ann
Mary-Ann, I'm really crazy 'bout you, deed I am.
I just can't live without you, Mary-Ann.
Mary-Ann, Mary-Ann,
My life was built around you.
Stars ans sand, your eyes were pools of laughter, Mary-Ann.
I thought you were my man.
I Love The Dead
I love the dead before they're cold,
They're bluing flesh for me to hold.
Cadaver eyes upon me see nothing.
I love the dead before they rise,
No farewells, no goodbyes.
I never even knew your rotting face.
While friends and lovers mourn your silly grave.
I have other uses for you, Darling
We love the dead, We love the dead, Yeah.
