This is it! Breaking up or breaking through, Breaking something's all we can do, Shoot straight, travel far, Stone crazy's all we ever are, But I don't care for lies, And I won't tell you twice, Because when all else fails, Dead Men Tell No Tales Shooting up away and back, A bit of guts is all that you lack, Far behind the stable door, I know you've met that horse before, But I don't care for sky, And this sure ain't no lie, At the end of all the tracks and trails, Dead Men Tell No Tales Come on You used to be my friend, But that friendship's coming to an end, My meaning must be clear, You know pity is all that you hear, But if you're doing smack, You won't be coming back, I ain't the one to make your bail, Dead Men Tell No Tales Tell no tales, tell no tales, Tell no tales, tell no tales

Cancer Your evil eye, in the night, Cruising low, flashing white, There together, in the dark, But it ain't no friend just another scared nark, I know you Lawman, lawman, lawman, lawman I think you're a poor man Lawman Every time you speak to me, Makes it plain that you don't see, What's really happening here, You just confuse respect with fear, I know you Lawman, lawman, lawman, lawman I think you're a poor man Lawman I see you in the Crown Court, Seems to me it's like a blood sport, I know you live by the book of rules, But anyone who needs a book is a fool I know you Lawman, lawman, lawman, lawman I think you're a poor man Lawman

Hello victims! I can almost taste it, It's the need to see you die, You thought you had it made, Well here's your final shock surprise How do you like it, My unfaithful friend? How do you like it? How do you like my Sweet Revenge?

That's what I call my Sweet Revenge Sweet Revenge sweet sweet revenge So sweet to see you, Writhe and crawl and scream for life, But I can't listen now, I'm too busy with the knife, I don't hear you laughing, My dismembered friend, I don't hear you laughing, You don't like my Sweet Revenge Sweet Revenge, ah sweet revenge, ah sweet revenge Revenge, revenge, revenge, sweet revenge Revenge, sweet revenge, revenge

Here we go People tell me you didn't know better, Give me sermons 'bout the things I do, Come to love 'em, even wrote letters, You know I even asked it of you, I said, I've been doing Poison, Poison I guess I poisoned my life, I love her Poison, Poison it's better than marrying a wife On the road, the pace is getting frantic, Especially when you poison out your mind, A flight of stairs is like swimming the Atlantic, When you're poisoned, deaf, dumb and blind, I dig my Poison, Poison I guess I poisoned my life, I wish I was Poison, Poison, I wish I'd poisoned my wife My Father, he used to be a Preacher, Never taught me nothing but scorn, If I ever catch him on the street, yeah, I'll make him wish he'd never been born, Because He was Poison, Poison I know he poisoned my life He was Poison, Poison I wish my mother wasn't his wife, no! Poison

You think you see me, in the glass You think you hear me, you better listen fast, I think I see you, gone to seed, The only reasons, were your guilt and greed, You're out there on your own, Your face turned to stone, Whatever happened to your life? Stone Dead Forever It's been a long time, been a long long wait, And you've caught your fingers, in the Pearly Gates, You'd better leave your number, and we'll call you, You know your problems ain't exactly new, The wrong side of the fold, Your touch has turned to gold, Whatever happened to your life? Stone Dead Forever You're a financial wizard, a top tycoon, A sweet lounge lizard, with a silver spoon, You know you never had it, quite so good, 'Cos you didn't know, that you even could, But the time has come to pay, Turns out to have been a play, Whatever happened to your life? Stone Dead Forever

The only thing I know, is playing rock 'n' roll, I'm not a business man, I'm just in a good time band, You don't let no-one know, just where the money goes, Because of parasites, I ain't got no rights, All The Aces, all the aces, all the aces Held by people who ain't got no faces You know I don't know why, you have to be so sly, One thing I learned, I don't get what I earn, But you get your share, though you ain't nowhere, You get no wiser, but then I despise you, All The Aces, all the aces, all the aces Don't like people who ain't got no faces You know you're the boss, but I'm the one it costs, Gotta see the books, you give me dirty looks, You know you make me vomit, and I ain't far from it, You know you can rob me, but you can't stop me, All The Aces, all the aces, all the aces I don't like people who ain't got no faces

Well I'll see you later, but I don't know when, Don't know if I'm coming, coming round again, But I don't care, well that they might stare, I know I mustn't Step Down I ain't no beauty, but I'm a secret fox, I'm gonna put your presents, inside my favourite box, And then so long, the universal song, I know I mustn't Step Down

Don't touch that dial! Television screams, your face turning green, Don't listen to the news, Don't know what you hear, they never make it clear, They like to keep your state confused, Propaganda time, the official line, You're hungry, you get fed, Everlasting smile, you must convey their style, But they're just a Talking Head Television voice don't give you any choice, You only hear the man, Don't take them in, you don't know where they been, 'Cos it's a complex plan, They keep you nice and quiet, even control your diet, You're hungry you get fed, Teach you to be meek, 'til all you are is weak, 'Til you're just a Talking Head Go Television screams, this ought to be a dream, Remember what I say, Don't be hypnotised by sugar coated lies, Don't switch it on today, It's the way things are, from that special jar, You're hungry you get fed, But if you play the game, you become the same, Another Talking Head oh
