1. 1-800 SLEAZORAMA

 

2. Tang

 

Hey you uptown jam-house mama

Such a superfly

Days go in dusty dreams

Nights with doctor white 

C-jams in cadillacs

Help you to get your wings tonite 

Number 3 takes to paradise

With the genuine snowbird eyes

 

I could see really easily

You got a monkey on your back

You ain't no better than a rat on crack

I could see really easily

Your tang is hungry so hungry

For that nose-candy nose-candy

 

How to make your love come down without 

Sonic dynamite

White girl you've gone too low

School boys callin' you lady snow

 

I could see...

 

I can tell ya whatcha wanna

You're an uptown mama

 

Wanna-wanna-wanna

Superfly mama

 

 

3. Smashed'n'Thrashed

 

Baby baby baby let me pick your cherry

Go star-gazin' on yer back

To crack a Judy's teacup i'll give you a little upshot

Doncha say your mama's comin' back

I may be too upside down

On your dead-end street

But you've got that love so deep

It's gonna be a double-event for you and me

 

CAN'T GET THRU

2 SMASHED 2 TRASHED

 

I can't help myself born to raise hell

Doin' that bone dance much too well

Been to mexico been to jericho

Been so blind as a boiled owl

I can't feel no pain

Now i'm right outta my brain

Don't know the way back home

Likkered up and laid to the bone

 

 

4. Velvet Touch

 

The autumn came took you away

I never expected you to stay

Black tears fallin' in the cold rain

 

I woke up one night to the darkest dream

Your pretty ghost whisperin' to me

Just one drop and i'll give you

Eternity  

 

I'M LOOKING AT YOU I'M LOOKING FOR LOVE

NEVER GET ENOUGH WHEN PUSH COMES TO SHOVE

 

Try to look at me

Tell me what you see

You let fantasy become reality

When the night is callin'

Pretty baby screams

 

I buried my heart into the deapest seas

When the blood runs cold i feel hot in heat

The red moon risin' over you and me

 

I'm looking at you I'm looking for love

Never get enough when push comes to shove

 

I never believed we would meet again

Start it all over till the very end

Gimme velvet touch

Gimme a kiss of death

 

 

 

5. Mr. Pain

 

Lights out all night

I've been lying there

Shiverin' and shakin' 

Heart full of fear everthing's gettin' much too clear

Life's a bitch

I just let you too near

 

On and on this beat is gettin' much too strong

Higher and higher the flames burnin' higher

I took the self destruction desire

 

P-A-I-N MR. PAIN

Takes you like a hot summer rain

 

I'm seein' snakes

And feelin' stone dead

Spiders and roaches dancin' in my head

All fucked-up in the hospital bed

Fire queen nursie

Paint the town red

 

On and on...

 

I need a fix 'n' a kiss

Can't get worse than this 

Everybody's so slow

I'm goin' much too fast

 

 

6. Lady Luck

 

You keep on sayin' that you don't like my playin'

You can deal the cards anyway you want honey

You can roll the dice you can roll it twice 

Better leave love on its own device 

 

I wasn't born under the lucky star

i'm a gambler love's the game

i'm gonna get you no matter what it takes

 

LADY LUCK

You're a lipstick junkie

LADY LUCK

You made me a love-sick monkey

 

Play your cards smarter throw your dice harder

you're playin' for high stakes doncha realize it honey

lucky's so blind and we're runnin' out of time

wheel of fortune stops in you in my one-track mind

 

I wasn't...

 

 

7. Motor City Resurrection

 

The city's the bitch 

We're its misfit kids 

Raised on the streets

When we cut honey

We bleed 

Dancin' on the dead beat

 

MOTOR CITY RESURRECTION HONEY

MOTOR CITY RESURRECTION

 

Shootin' up lika

Shit outta luck

Livin' on the chinese rocks

you cannot choose

The way you lose

City wolves preyin' upon you

 

 

 

8. Ghettoway Car

 

I wasn't born for this drab city life

Never gonna work from 9 to 5

A voice telling me deep inside

I don't belong to this world of suit and tie

Who lives only for bread and circuses

I need more than just mtv

There ain't no future of any kind

Cos we got a one-way ticket to ride

 

We got to GETAWAY from the GHETTOWAY CAR

I got to GETAWAY from the GHETTOWAY CAR

I got to GETAWAY from the GHETTOWAY CAR

I got to gotta gotta gotta GETAWAY!

 

They try to get you dead or alive

I wouldn't sell my soul for a dime

I need a chance that never get 

Still got in me some self-respect

Mr. corruption rules the city of sin

Born to lose but i never give in

You better act on my advice

Fuck that one-way ticket you ride

 

 

 

9. Wild Talk

 

 

10. Get It Off

 

Hey what's a matter with you

Why doncha dance or groove

Is it something in the air

Bless my soul but save your prayer

Life ain't feelin' real 

When you're so down

Come outta your shell girl

Let's paint the town

 

Sometimes your life ain't a bed

Bed of roses

When in rome they say

You gotta do as the romans do hey babe

 

C'MON C'MON LET'S GET IT OFF

C'MON C'MON LET'S GET IT OFF NOW

C'MON C'MON LET'S GET IT OFF

C'MON C'MON YEAH

 

Hey sugar whatcha tryin' to do

Ain't ya gonna give the devil his dues 

Can't you hear what i say 

Keep your motor movin'

all the way-hey

 

 

11. Always

 

Come and get me sucker bite down

One step more and I'll blow your head around

I ain't got nothing for you

Better believe what I'm tellin' you

I've been runnin' thru the world with a gun in my back

Never got a ride in a cadillac

Now look out scum here i come 

Down to kill like a son of a gun

 

You can try to tell me what is right or wrong

It so easy to see thru you 

I'll do ALWAYS  do what I want 

 

I never ever learned at school

To play their rules 

Unlike all those jackass fools

Standin' blind in the line

They got their heads from the same mould

And doin' exactly as they're told

But hey that ain't for me

Still at war with apathy

 

Doncha try to teach me what is right or wrong

Cuz it so easy to see thru you

 

 

12. Demolition Derby

 

She got a sweet funky power machine

Shinin´ chrome if you know what I mean

Speedin´ the ride up to 99

Drive me on baby thru the ´lectric nite

Like a sweet ass-kickin´ love machine 

 

GOIN´ DOWN ON THE DEMOLITION DERBY

Straight outta Hell

GOIN´ DOWN ON THE DEMOLITION DERBY

Honey you can tell yeah  

 

Well she rides like a motor-psycho speed queen

Hell on wheels if you know what I mean

Piercin´ the nite down on the 69

Drive me on baby at the speed of light

Like a sweet supersonic sex machine
