      Louie Louie, me gotta go
      Louie Louie, me gotta go
      Fine little girl she waits for me
      Me catch the ship for cross the sea
      I sail the ship all alone
      I never think I’ll make it home
      Louie Louie, me gotta go
      Louie Louie, me gotta go
      Three nights and days me sail the sea
      Me think of girl constantly
      On the ship I dream she there
      I smell the rose in her hair
      Louie Louie, me gotta go
      Louie Louie, me gotta go

      Me take her in my arms and then

      Lyrics

      I was working in the lab late one night
      When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
      For my monster from his slab began to rise
      And suddenly to my surprise
      He did the mash
      He did the monster mash
      The monster mash
      It was a graveyard smash
      He did the mash
      It caught on in a flash
      He did the mash
      He did the monster mash
      From my laboratory in the castle east
      To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
      The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
      To get a jolt from my electrodes
      They did the mash
      They did the monster mash
      The monster mash
      It was a graveyard smash
      They did the mash
      It caught on in a flash
      They did the mash
      They did the monster mash
      The zombies were having fun
      The party had just begun
      The guests included Wolf Man
      Dracula and his son
      The scene was rockin’, all were digging the sounds
      Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds
      The coffin-bangers were about to arrive
      With their vocal group, “The Crypt-Kicker Five”
      They played the mash
      They played the monster mash
      The monster mash
      It was a graveyard smash
      They played the mash
      It caught on in a flash
      They played the mash
      They played the monster mash
      Out from his coffin, Drac’s voice did ring
      Seems he was troubled by just one thing
      He opened the lid and shook his fist
      And said, “Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?”
      It’s now the mash
      It’s now the monster mash
      The monster mash
      And it’s a graveyard smash
      It’s now the mash
      It’s caught on in a flash
      It’s now the mash
      It’s now the monster mash
      Now everything’s cool, Drac’s a part of the band
      And my monster mash is the hit of the land
      For you, the living, this mash was meant too
      When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you
      Then you can mash
      Then you can monster mash
      The monster mash
      And do my graveyard smash
      Then you can mash
      You’ll catch on in a flash
      Then you can mash
      Then you can monster mash

      Lyrics

      On a warm summer’s evening on a train bound for nowhere
      I met up with a gambler, we were both too tired to sleep
      So we took turns a-staring out the window at the darkness
      The boredom overtook us, and he began to speak
      He said, son I’ve made my life out of reading people’s faces
      And knowing what the cards were by the way they held their eyes
      So if you don’t mind my sayin’, I can see you’re out of aces
      For a taste of your whiskey I’ll give you some advice
      So I handed him my bottle, and he drank down my last swallow
      Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light
      And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression
      Said, if you’re gonna play the game, boy, you gotta learn to play it right
      You got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em
      Know when to walk away, know when to run
      You never count your money when you’re sittin’ at the table
      There’ll be time enough for countin’, when the dealin’s done
      Now, every gambler knows, the secret to survivin’
      Is knowing what to throw away, knowing what to keep
      ‘Cause every hand’s a winner and every hand’s a loser
      And the best you can hope for is to die in your sleep
      So when he’d finished speakin’, he turned back toward the window
      Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep
      Then somewhere in the darkness, the gambler he broke even
      But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep
      You got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em
      Know when to walk away, know when to run
      You never count your money when you’re sittin’ at the table
      There’ll be time enough for countin’, when the dealin’s done

      Lyrics

      I don’t want to fight

      Every single night

      Everything I want is in your eyes

      You and me go back

      To places I dont know to care

      The spoils of all I got were left for scraps

      Don’t let me say this

      But you’re no worse than me

      It’s crazy

      We are the real

      If real ever was

      And just because

      We are the real

      They feel we have enough

      We are the real

      ‘Cause someone gave us up

      I want to be there when you’re happy

      I want to love you when you’re sad

      Cant stand the morning rain?

      Get out i’ll take your place then

      Can’t stand the blazing sun?

      Then close your eyes you’ll see

      The angel dust

      I dont want to be

      Anything believed

      A million watts of sound can’t compare

      Come along you’ll see the world

      The pulse ripples, the crowd unfurls

      The current starts to flow and then you’re on

      Oh it’s white hot soul they want

      To sing for

      We are the real

      If real ever was

      And just because

      We are the ruin

      Of every living soul

      We are surreal

      Cause someone gave us up

      Don’t break the oath

      I want to love you when you’re happy

      Don’t break this oath

      I want to be there when youre sad

      Freeze-frame the pouring rain

      We are the real

      As real as any ghost

      So easy now

      We are the real

      In ever living soul

      Oh dont they know?

      Can’t stand the blazing sun?

      Can’t stand the morning rain?

      Oh get out i’ll take your place again

      I dont want to be alone

      I dont want to be alone at all

      If it’s a white hot soul they want

      Then a black heart they’ll get

      Lyrics

      I’m so alone
      I’m so alone, I’m thinking
      I’m so alone, I can’t get old
      I’m so alone
      I’m so alone, I can’t get off of you
      Fool, you love yourself
      Fool, you love yourself and no one else
      The bitter root of self
      Come on, baby
      No time for maybes
      One last trip to hell
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it?
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it?
      Low in you
      Slow in you
      It’s that glow in you
      I’m so alone
      I’m so alone, I’m sinking
      I’m so alone, I can’t get lost in you
      Fool, you love yourself
      Fool, you love yourself and no one else
      The bitter root of self
      Come on, baby
      Drive me crazy
      One last trip to hell
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it?
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it?
      Low in you
      Slow in you
      It’s that glow in you
      And it’s not strange
      That you’re the same
      From me
      And it’s not strange
      That I’m so strange
      To please
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it?
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it?
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it?
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it?
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it?
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it?
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it?
      Come on, come on, come on, can you feel it glow?

      Lyrics

      I spin off and lose my head

      Throwing stray a spark instead

      Gather strength down in my heel

      And dig it in the world I peel

      Way down deep within my heart

      Lies a soul that’s torn apart

      Tell me, tell me what your after

      I just want to get there faster

      I don’t live – I inhale

      I don’t give – I unveil

      Don’t want to live in your misery

      I don’t live – I inhale

      Sprinkle all my kisses on your head

      Stars full of wishes fill our beds

      She said, “I’m dead”

      All this pain smothers me

      Like a bomb that you can’t see

      Tell me, tell me what your after

      I just want to get there faster

      I don’t live – I inhale

      I don’t give – I unveil

      I don’t live – I inhale

      I don’t live

      Lyrics

      Speed kills, but beauty lives forever

      Speed thrills, but beauty knows your name

      I fell ill inside eternal winter, winter

      And stood still beside eternal flame

      And when I ride

      With you tonight

      We can move

      At the speed of light

      With all I’d asked

      And all I’d pray

      The last rose of summer would stay

      First time that I ever saw you

      Crashing hard thru days of pain

      You were one of god’s children

      Left to cry out in the rain

      Waiting to be saved again

      ‘Cause when I ride

      With you tonight

      We can move

      At the speed of light

      And all I’d ask

      And all I pray

      The last rose of summer

      The last rose of summer

      The last rose of summer is gone

      Long gone, gone

      The last rose of summer is gone

      When I ride

      With you tonight

      We can move

      At the speed of light

      Forever young

      Forever blind

      Into the stars

      We rock tonight

      Last rose of summer is gone

      The last rose of summer is gone

      The last rose of summer is gone

      The last rose of summer is gone

      The last rose of summer

      The last rose of summer

      The last rose of summer is gone

      One by one
      Two by two
      Together they ride
      Side by side
      Into love
      Together they die
      And still they want to weather the tide
      As Rome burns
      Forgiveness all your days
      To count what you can’t save
      We’ll take out one good eye
      And leave a world to fall behind
      As Rome burns
      I see them everywhere out shaking to the beat
      Cursing out their elements
      With chaos, chaos bleats
      And what seemed urgent then turns wicked in the heat
      As Rome burns to the motherfucking ground

      Lyrics

      Hello darkness, my old friend
      I’ve come to talk with you again
      Because a vision softly creeping
      Left its seeds while I was sleeping
      And the vision that was planted in my brain
      Still remains
      Within the sound of silence
      In restless dreams I walked alone
      Narrow streets of cobblestone
      ‘Neath the halo of a street lamp
      I turned my collar to the cold and damp
      When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
      That split the night
      And touched the sound of silence
      And in the naked light I saw
      Ten thousand people, maybe more
      People talking without speaking
      People hearing without listening
      People writing songs that voices never share
      And no one dared
      Disturb the sound of silence
      “Fools”, said I, “You do not know
      Silence like a cancer grows
      Hear my words that I might teach you
      Take my arms that I might reach you”
      But my words, like silent raindrops fell
      And echoed
      In the wells of silence
      And the people bowed and prayed
      To the neon god they made
      And the sign flashed out its warning
      In the words that it was forming
      And the sign said, “The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
      And tenement halls”
      And whispered in the sounds of silence

      This is a song for a son
      This is a song for a sailor
      The son I never had
      This is a song for a kid
      This is a song for a tailor
      Who stitched up my old heart
      Who stitched up my old heart
      This is a song for a dog
      This is a song for a blown-out bird
      The kind that don’t return to the nest
      This is a song for a star
      This is a song for a space invader
      Who flew into the sun
      Never to return
      Never to return
      And I am one of many
      Many more to come
      Many more to come
      I am one of many more

      This is a song for that tailor
      Who stitched up my old heart
      Who stitched up my old heart

      Today is the greatest
      Day I’ve ever known
      Can’t live for tomorrow,
      Tomorrow’s much too long
      I’ll burn my eyes out
      Before I get out
      I wanted more
      Than life could ever grant me
      Bored by the chore
      Of saving face
      Today is the greatest
      Day I’ve ever known
      Can’t wait for tomorrow
      I might not have that long
      I’ll tear my heart out
      Before I get out
      Pink ribbon scars
      That never forget
      I tried so hard
      To cleanse these regrets
      My angel wings
      Were bruised and restrained
      My belly stings
      Today is
      Today is
      Today is
      The greatest day
      I want to turn you on
      I want to turn you on
      I want to turn you on
      I want to turn you
      Today is the greatest
      Today is the greatest day
      Today is the greatest day
      That I have ever really known

      Lyrics

      The world is a vampire, sent to drain
      Secret destroyers, hold you up to the flames
      And what do I get, for my pain
      Betrayed desires, and a piece of the game
      Even though I know-i suppose I’ll show
      All my cool and cold-like old job
      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
      Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
      Now I’m naked, nothing but an animal
      But can you fake it, for just one more show
      And what do you want, I want to change
      And what have you got
      When you feel the same
      Even though I know-i suppose I’ll show
      All my cool and cold-like old job
      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
      Then someone will say what is lost can never be saved
      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
      Tell me I’m the only one
      Tell me there’s no other one
      Jesus was an only son
      Tell me I’m the chosen one
      Jesus was an only son for you
      Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage
      And I still believe that I cannot be saved

      Lyrics

      If I were alive
      If I were real
      Would you survive
      What would you feel
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      As sentimental as our broken dreams
      Let me die for rock and roll
      Let me die to save your soul
      Let me die, let me die rock and roll
      Let the world forgive the past
      Let all the girls kiss the boys at last
      Let me go, let me go rock and roll
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      We’re the metal, in their metal machines
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      If I were dead
      Would my records sell
      Could you even tell
      Is it just as well
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      It’s elemental, to all the rust it brings
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      Let me die for rock and roll
      Let me die and save my soul
      Let me go, let me go rock and roll
      Let the world forgive the past
      Let all the girls kiss the boys at last
      Let me go, let me die rock and roll
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      We’re the metal, in their droning schemes
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      Will I survive
      Is it up to me
      Could you understand
      That it’s not yours to keep
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
      Heavy metal, heavy metal machine

      Lyrics

      Little by little the night turns around
      Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn
      Lotuses lean on each other in yearning
      Under the eaves the swallow is resting
      Set the controls for the heart of the sun
      Over the mountain watching the watcher
      Breaking the darkness
      Waking the grapevine
      One inch of love is one inch of shadow
      Love is the shadow that ripens the wine
      Set the controls for the heart of the sun
      The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun
      Witness the man who raves at the wall
      Making the shape of his questions to Heaven
      Whether the sun will fall in the evening
      Will he remember the lesson of giving?
      Set the controls for the heart of the sun
      The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun
