Mötley Crüe
Album • 2008
Slithering towards the dream All infected with the same disease Awaiting your flesh to be cloaked in silver As the fat rats grovel, Ready to steal your innocence And exploit your soul Some will hit their knees In a rancid act of desperation While others search For a hopeless god to save them For every four, there will be One hundred thousand fallen Drowning in a cesspool of awareness That they have failed This city, full of plastic angels, Will seduce you Welcome to Los Angeles!

Runaways in a van All go straight to Hollywood We'll leave a scar Don't give a damn Vandalize the neighborhood Do you remember when? We slept all day in our clothes but that's okay in Hollywood Another shot Another show All night long at the Whisky a go-go Do you remember when? We were on the run Got loaded like a shotgun Living out our dreams Down at the Whisky We never made a dime But god we had a good time We always made a scene Down at the Whisky LA girls they payed the rent While we got drunk on Sunset Strip And all the cash they made we spent On tattoos and cigarettes Do you remember when? We were on the run Got loaded like a shotgun Living out our dreams Down at the Whisky We never made a dime But god we had a good time We always made a scene Down at the Whisky Oh we were throwing fights And we were gettin high Living out our dreams Down at the Whisky We were on the run Got loaded like a shotgun Living out our dreams Down at the Whisky We never made a dime But god we had a good time We always made a scene Down at the Whisky Yeah Yeah Yeah......

It kinda makes me wonder About the lovers that have been. Lyin on my bed with her hands tied up I knew it all along that it wasn't enough 'cus when I gotta taste of you I found somethin I can sink my teeth into It's the hurt that never heals It's the deepest cut you feel It's the thing in you that feeds The animal in me It's the darker side of lust It's the other side of us It's the thing in you that feeds The animal in me The animal in me I wanna feel your last breath Before we suffocate A kiss you can't forget Like a wedding on a... The chills keep shootin' down the back of my neck Like a freight train poundin' in the pit of my chest 'cus when I got a taste of you I found somethin I can sink my teeth into It's the hurt that never heals It's the deepest cut you feel It's the thing in you that feeds The animal in me It's the hurt that never heals It's the deepest cut you feel It's the thing in you that feeds The animal in me

Rolls Royce shoppin', Like a damn puppet, Love my cash in Beverly Hills. Gold Car Lover, Hamptins watch my cover, Hoochie went and jacked up my bills. Well I know I shouldn't say it, but truth be told, I really thought that pussy was gold. Chicks = Trouble, You had it up again with your gift. Chicks = Trouble, I always step right in, I always step right in the shit. Oh yea, I have a jet, My balls are deep in debt, And all she hears is cha-cha-cha-ching But she was more, A gold-digging whore, Here come the lawyers again. Chicks = Trouble, You had it up again with your gift. Chicks = Trouble, They'll kick you when your down in the ditch. Chicks = Trouble, I always step right in, I always step right in the shit. They never said I could catch this from a center fold, I got it bad and the doctor said I should've known, I should've known, I should've known. Chicks = Trouble, You had it up again with your gift. Chicks = Trouble, They'll kick you when your down in the ditch. Chicks = Trouble, You had it up again with your gift. Oh you had enough? You get what you give Oh Oh no.

This Ain't a love Song I met her down at Marylin's grave Lookin' like an S & M slave Drinkin' like a fool With a prison tattoo on her cheek Well I knew that we would never last Cuz we were runnin' from our criminal past But none of that mattered I was high and she was flattered by me I had wine and 2-gram lines To get inside her head There was no need for roses I just layed her down in bed (Chorus) This ain't a love song This is a fuck song Don't have to sing along This ain't a love song It's just a fuck song Let's do it all night long She didn't wanna look in my eyes As we barreled down Mulholland Drive Lookin for a place to suck a little face and get high Suzy wouldn't call it love She was good just givin' it up All she really wanted was a little rock and roll tonight She said turn it up so fucking loud That I can't hear my mind She bit down on the bedpost And I watched Suzy grind (Chorus)
