Velvet Revolver : Contraband
Lyrics
1. SUCKER TRAIN BLUES
Hands are shakin got your finger on the trigger
Jesus ain't complainin gonna figure it out
Somebody raped my tapeworm abortion
Come on motherfuckers and deliver the cow
Brain and body melting while there's roaches multiplying
It's the alien infection it's the coming of Christ
All these sentimental halos and these consequential angels
When I'm runnin with the devil don't deliver the fight
Don't look at me now
Fell too fast your wings won't hold
Don't look at me now
Fell too fast your wings won't hold
Yeah and when I want to
Yeah I will find you
Yeah and when I want to
Yeah I will blind you
Brains are frying while the kings and queens are dying
Satan won the race and the miracle mile
Somebody raped my tapeworm abortion
Come on mothertuckers and deliver the cow
It's all over me now
Let me go, let me go, let me go
What's come over me now
Let me go, let me go, let me go
It's all over me now
Let me go, let me go, let me go
What's come over me now
Johnny sat down beside the old oak tree
Cut off his hand what did he see
All of the animals are dead
The rats have crawled through his house and out through their head
One of them ate a hole in the sky
To believe this would be a fate worse than dying
2. DO IT FOR THE KIDS
Went too fast I'm out of luck and I don't even give a fuck
I wanna be your manchild
Let's all go it hog-wild
She said I'll see you later
I always gravitate to her
Let's all meet at the station
No heavy concentration
We could all hook up there
The kids are all alright there
Should we go out later
Showtime for strangers
Dontcha give a fuck anymore now
She's givin up on you now
Do it for the kids they say
It ain't about you anyway
I say we're all grown up now
And sex ain't so safe now
It's all in the groove they say
Doesn't matter anyway
Keep me runnin' like a deer in the headlights
All for nothing I thought
Just the ransom I had bought
About the day I tried to tame her
Never tried to blame her
Just a game that I had bought
Let's all meet at the station
No heavy concentration
The kids are all alright there
Went too fast I'm out of luck and I don't even give a fuck
Should we go (should we go) out later
(Went too fast I'm out of luck and I don't even give a fuck)
Showtime (showtime) for strangers
(Went too fast I'm out of luck and I don't even give a fuck)
3. BIG MACHINE
I don't know
Because she says so
He's a faggot boy
The TV says so
He's a junkie piece of shit because he says so
All that first-class jet set brings me down, down, down
All that first-class drug shit brings me down, down, down
It's a big machine, it's a big machine
We're all slaves to a big machine
It's a big machine, it's a big machine
We're all slaves to a big machine
All tied up to a big machine
I got houses
Got cars
I got a wife
I got kids
Got money in the bank
Get away without borders
I'm a slave, New World Order
I guess I chose to be
I guess I chose to be
I guess I chose to be
I guess I chose to be
Hope I teach my son how to be a man
Now before he hits 35
Comic book lives don't really have any real life do they now
4. ILLEGAL I SONG
One fine day
I'll settle down
When you bloody me
I ran aground
With my broken face
And fisticuff
Fuck the rest and
All their stuff
I - Don't - Anymore
I - Don't - Anymore
Just look and you'll
See me
Lying there
Lying there
Just look and you'll
See me
Lying there
Lying
Another way
A battle ground
A ready teller whore
Who makes no sound
Keep the money bitch
Keep the stuff
Fly around the world
And keep it up
I - Don't - Anymore
I - Don't - Anymore
It's killing time on the streets
All hate Sunday
5. SPECTACLE
Take two to break and three to go
Hold me back you spectacle (Mother Fucker yeah)
Kick me down with broken bones
You picked a fight now stand your ground
You talk about it
Don't know what you want
In the back of someone else's car
You write the list
Well write me off
Rocket bitch is blasting off (Right on target yeah)
Boots laced up I'm here to go
In the end I'll stand alone
You talk about it
Don't know what you want
In the back of someone else's car
You lied about it
Bled another heart
Then began to fall apart
It rains and you fall back down again
It begins to rain and I'll knock you right back down again
You incessant bitch you lied in wait for the last time now
I'm standing now
I'm standing now
6. FALL TO PIECES
It's been a long year
Since you've been gone
I've been alone here
I've grown old
I fall to pieces, I'm falling
Fell to pieces and I'm still falling
Every time I'm falling down
All alone I fall to pieces
I keep a journal of memories
I'm feeling lonely, I can't breathe
I fall to pieces, I'm falling
Fell to pieces and I'm still falling
All the years I've tried
With more to go
Will the memories die
I'm waiting
Will I find you
Can I find you
We're falling down
I'm falling
Every time I'm falling down
All alone I fall to pieces
Every time I'm falling down
All alone I fall to pieces
Every time I'm falling down
All alone I fall to pieces
Every time I'm falling down
All alone I fall to pieces
7. HEADSPACE
Me
I'm a man
Who is trudging
Best I can
Through a minefield
Built to blast
Can I make it
Will I last
Free my mind, levitate
Don't let any of those fuckers in my headspace
Please
Let me be
No more questions
No more needs
You're the cancer
You're the leech
Sent to bleed me
Of disease
Free my mind, levitate
Don't let any of those fuckers in my headspace
Let me go my own way
Burn the rest of them that try to keep me enchained
Living taking chances
Isn't all that it's meant to be
Dying with your face on
A t-shirt isn't all that original
Me
I'm the man
Will I make it
Will I last
8. SUPERHUMAN
I'm a superman
I wanna be your superman
I'm a superman
I wanna be your superman
What you get is a crash course to be a man
But a man is a destination never known
Sometimes dressed up like a red hot lady in pumps
Don't think she can get enough
Always feel like she's runnin on a hamster wheel
Getting high, crashing cars and makin mistakes
Keepin her face packed with cocaine
Her face is numb your faith is gone
I'm travelin on now
I'm makin plans now
Cocaine
Alcohol
Lady-lay
Withdrawal
Keep it comin in a world that's blown up wild
Keep it comin in a world that's bred her style
We're all runnin from the goose she's high on cocaine
There's a noose swimmin right between her legs to her brain
We're all in need of a superhuman woman now
We're all in need of a superhuman woman now
So rodeo, rodeo, rodeo, rodeo
Throw the rope around her neck and get the show on the road
What's she thinking
She'll never get enough
9. SET ME FREE
You operate and motivate on synthetic fuel
You're Mother Nature and an atom bomb
As long as you're kept full of pretty bodies
Your little secret will be safe with me
Around again, insane again, it comes again and sets me free
So set me free, set me free cause I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free
You're kept alive and polarized with one thing in mind
Metabolizing everything you see
But now or then or a little later
Now I'm gonna take you down with me
Around again, insane again, it comes again and sets me free
So set me free, set me free cause I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free
So set me free, set me free cause I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free
So take me down, take me
Down, down, down
So take me down, take me
Down, down, down
So set me free, set me free cause I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free
So set me free, set me free cause I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free
So set me free, set me free cause I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free
So set me free, set me free cause I think you need my soul
Set me free, set me free
10. YOU GOT NO RIGHT
I fell through the ice
She won't be coming back too soon
It never wins to lie
She said you'll never have no rights
I've took it farther on the outside
I've took it nearly to the brink
And if you've seen me on the outside
You would have barely seen me breathe
Funny right here I find myself
Inside a paper cup
Without a warning or a reason it's a treason
With no answer
You got no right
To keep me waiting here
You got no right
To keep the pain in here
That holds the crown
And if I fall apart on the outside
(You really don't believe me)
And if I take it to the brink
And if I fall apart on the outside
(You really don't believe me)
You would have barely seen me breathe
And if I meet you out tonight
Will you be loving me forever
It's always over after the night
It's always colder after the night
I broke through the ice
She won't be coming back again
It's been a year and a night
11. SLITHER
I messed uo this tab before, but im positive that this one is right.
Hey Hey Hey
When you look you see right through me
Cut the rope I fell to my knees
Born and Broken every single time
Always keep me under finger
Thats the spot where you run to me
Might see some type of pleasure in my mind
Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wash away the sins of you and I
This time you see
Hey Hey Hey
When you seek me youll destroy me
Rape my mind and smell the poppies
Born in blood in every single time
Always keep me under finger
thats the spot where you might linger
Might see some type of pleasure in my mind
Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wash away the sins of you and I
This time youll see
Like holy water
It only burns you faster then youll ever dry
This time with me (hold)
(GUITAR SOLO)
When you look you see right through me
Cut the rope I fell to my knees
Born in blood in every single time (hold)
Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wah away the sins of you and I
This time youll see
Like holy water
It only burns you faster then youll ever dry
This time with me
Hey Hey Hey
12. DIRTY LITTLE THING
Can't stop thinkin
Musta been trippin this evening
My mind is racing demons and all of my feelings are numb
Yeah and when I roll with my head in the wind
And I feel like the king of the
Dead men wishin they had
Gotten together with your girl
But you're a dirty little liar with a message of obession to come
You got your head in the clouds and your world's upside down
Get away from the life you're living
Get away from the the man that's stealing your life
Get away from the drugs you're taking
Get away from the film of sex in your life
Can't stop drinking
I'm cold kicking and bleeding
The wine is numbing feelings and all of my memories are gone
Yeah and when I roll with my head in the wind
And I feel like the king of the
Dead men wishin they had
Gotten together with your girl
But you're a dirty little liar with a message of obession to come
You got your head in the clouds and your world's upside down
Get away from the life you're living
Get away from the the man that's stealing your life
Get away from the drugs you're taking
Get away from the film of sex in your life
You got your head in the clouds and your world's upside down
Get away from the life you're living
Get away from the the man that's stealing your life
Get away from the drugs you're taking
Get away from the film of sex in your life
Get away (x4)
13. LOVING THE ALIEN
Somtimes I think I'm scared
Sometimes I know
Sometimes I feel like making love
Sometimes I don't
I feel like letting go
Maybe not
I feel like giving up
Is all we got
Sometimes is all the time
And never means maybe
Sometimes is all the time
Maybe
And I'm moving on
And I'm moving on (sometimes I feel alone)
And I'm moving on
And I'm moving on
Sometimes I make belive
When we're alone
Machines have taken hold
Can you get me to a telephone
It's just the little things
You used to see
Am I still that man who makes you who you want to be
Sometimes is all the time
And never means maybe
Sometimes is all the time
Maybe
And I'm moving on
And I'm moving on (sometimes I feel alone)
And I'm moving on
And I'm moving on
I never noticed
How lovely were the aliens
Lovely were the aliens
I never noticed
How lovely were the aliens
Lovely were the aliens
And I'm moving on
And I'm moving on (sometimes I feel alone)
And I'm moving on
And I'm moving on
