In The Year Of The Wolf

In The Year Of The Wolf,
all the world smelled good,
In the snow and the ice,
all the rest was blood,
In the time of the tribe,
we took a thousand lives,
When I ran with the wolves,
and the hunting was good,

See me now, I was another,
Not like me, when the wolves were brothers,
See me now, you cannot know,
The kind of food that me grow,

It was the wolf in me,
Body and soul on fire,
In the cold, full moon,
Blood, red, desire,
It was the wolf in me,
You know it felt so true,
The night I ran with the wolves,
Tonight I come for you,

In The Year Of The Wolf,
how could you ever know,
There in the forest,
I had teeth to show,
In a different time,
when the world was mine,
When I ran as a wolf,
and the sun burned low,

See me now, I was another,
Mean and vicious, fast and clever,
see me now, you would not dream,
The food I ate, the food that screamed,

It was the wolf in me,
And all my soul was fire,
By the cold, dull moon,
Blood, red, desire,
It was the wolf in me,
I howled the cold night through,
The year I ran as a wolf,
Tonight the food is you,

In The Year Of The Wolf,
all the tribe ran mad,
On the frozen lake,
and I felt so glad,
With tooth and claw,
all your blood and more,
When I ran with the wolves,
and the hunt turned bad,

See me now, this is not me,
Not like the one, I used to be,
See me now, you would not guess,
A different heart raving in my chest,

It was the wolf in me,
When the world was cold,
It was the life I lived,
In the dark world below,
It was the wolf in me,
Crying and howling too,
I was crying for the hunt,
But I was hunting for you

Keys To The Kingdom

Death in the stars, rain on the wind,
Came to the mission, couldn't get in,
Came out of nowhere, guess I'll go back,
All down to bad luck,
Fire in the sky, nowhere to run,
Came to the desert, burned by the sun,
Came out of somewhere, I ain't never been back,
All down to bad luck,

King of frustration, Vampire de Luxe,
Keys To The Kingdom, God hates your guts,
Out of the heavens a blessing might fall,
But the Keys To The Kingdom mean nothing at all,

Crippled by cold, blinded by fear,
Looking for God, but they said he ain't here,
Came out of nowhere, can't stand to go back,
All down to bad luck,
Carved on a stone, the world's epitaph,
Walked through te graveyard, just had to laugh,
Came out of exile, for a handful of dust,
All down to bad luck,

King aggrivation, Vampire de Luxe,
Congratulations, God hates your guts,
Bound for damnation, backs to the wall,
And the Keys To The Kingdom mean nothing at all,

High in the sky, in letters of fire,
The names of the saints, the thieves and the liars,
Came to the funeral, out of pure spite,
All down to bad luck,
The least we could do, the harder we tried,
The better we lived, the sooner we died,
Came to the goldmine, cold and alone,
All down to bad luck,

King of starvation, Vampire de Luxe,
Keys To The Kingdom, we hate your guts,
In the asylum, no one hears you call,
And the Keys To The Kingdom mean nothing at all,
Nothing at all

Smiling Like A Killer

I'm the one you never see, in the dead of night,
Peeking in your window, staying out of sight,
GO to bed, lock the door, don't look in the mirror,
What if I was right behind you,
Smiling Like A Killer,

I'm the knocking at your door, when you're all alone,
I'm the scratching zombie claw, in your twilight zone,
Cut your throat, catch your breath, blood run like a river,
Last thing you see before your death,
Smiling Like A Killer,

Killers in the house,
Killers in the yard,
Smile, smile, smile,
Killers they're so hard,
Smiling at your kids,
Smiling at your mom,
Smiling at your pets,
They know where you come from,
They know where you come from,

I'm the razor at your throat, in your fever dreams,
I'm the one to get your goat, nothing's what it seems,
Freeze your smile, stop your heart, creep and crawl and slither,
Come to you and make your mark,
Smiling Like A Killer,

Killers in your room,
Squirming in your chair,
Smile, smile, smile,
Killers they're not fair,

Smiling in the crowd,
Smiling all alone,
Smiling in your ear,
Call you on the phone,
Call you on the phone,

I'm the creepy homeless guy, hanging around your school,
I'm the one to make you gone, low and base and cruel,
In the evening we can dance, piggy in the middle,
I will show you true romance,
Smiling Like A Killer,

Killers in the mist,
Killers in the fog,
Smile, smile, smile,
They might eat your dog,
Smiling here and now,
Smiling all the time,
Smiling in your dreams,
A Smile just like mine,
A Smile just like mine,
A Smile just like mine

Whorehouse Blues

Well we came up from the gutter,
The wrong side of the tracks,
Yeah, we came up from the gutter,
Wrong side of the tracks,
You know the music brought us out, babe,
And we ain't never been back,
Cause we went city to city,
All around the world,
Yes, we went city to city,
All around the world,
You know it never looked like enough, honey,
Even after thirty years,

Cause we come blazing like a shooting star,
We light you up real good,
Yes, we come blazing like a shooting star,
We light you up real good,
We gonna hit you like a flash of lightning,
Just like a bad boy would,

You know the only thing that's missing,
Is a little mouth harp blues,
You know the only thing that's missing,
Is a little mouth harp blues,
And you know life's full of suprises,
You know we do that to,

You know we ain't too good looking,
But we are satisfied,
No, we ain't never been good looking,
But we are satisfied,
We shoulda opened up a little Whorehouse, honey,
Get a little booty on the side

Sucker

How we are, ain't how we were,
Innocence, is for the birds,
Now we are poison, and we don't care,
We have no shame, we strip you bare,
And you so precious, lost in smoke,
Too busy laughing, to see the joke.

Nobody knows if you won or you lost,
Into the palace or up on the cross,
Into the gravy or into the ground,
We just don't want you around,

What we want, ain't what we get,
Rags to riches, ain't working yet,
For we are monsters, we love our work,
Raise your voice, you bite the dirt,
And you so patient, lost in dreams,
Too busy crying, to hear the screams.

Nobody cares if you lost or you won,
In with the girlies or under the gun,
Into the sunshine or under the blade,
We gonna dance on your grave,
Sucker

What we do, is break the law,
We tasted blood and we want more,
For we are murder, we like it fine,
No quarter, we draw the line,
And you so gracious, lost in time,
Too busy killing, to see the crime

Love it or hate it, you're gonna pay,
All of us here, gonna ruin your day,
Into the palace or into the pit,
We think you're just full of shit.

Nobody cares if you're in or you're out,
We're gonna give you a smack in the mouth,
Whether you go or whether you stay,
I guess it just ain't your day,
Sucker

One Night Stand

One lucky devil that's me, gonna be my brand new rose,
Don't you look good I swear honey,
Show it wherever you go,
Talking, looking & thinking,
Keep me happy all day,
Love me tender, let me remember
When I get old & grey.

Love, at first sight, love with a travelling man,
I’ve been a slut all my life,
Wish every night was a one-night stand.

You got a beautiful smile, the story of my poor life,
One look's worth a thousand words,
And that's the truth alright
Moving, touching and breathing,
Just trying to make some time,
Loving you honey, don't want your money,
Either your place or mine.

Love, at first sight, love with a travelling man,
I’ve been a slut all my life,
Wish every night was a one-night stand.

Into your town like thunder, crazy invasion of noise,
Come on down, stick around,
But honey don't bring no boys,
Crawling out of the badlands,
To rock in the shape of your worlds
You'll see us seldom, so make us welcome,
I love American girls.

Love, at first sight, love with a travelling man,
your whole world tonight,
Wish every night was a one-night stand.

Love, at first sight, love with a travelling man,
give it up tonight,
Wish every night was a one-night stand

Love, at first sight, love with a travelling man,
I’ve been a slut all my life,
Wish every night was a one-night stand.

Devil I Know

Stand up for the cause,
Lay down for the law,
You know what your claw is for,
Far as you can spit,
Don't knock on my door,
You ain't welcome no more,
I might be a dog,
But honey, you're a bitch.

Ain't gonna change a thing,
Ain't gonna change my ways,
I don't care where you've been,
I don't care where you go,
Going back to the devil I know.

Stand up for the count,
Hold up and dismount,
I know what my feet are for,
I know when to quit,
Don't come around my house,
Or I'll put you out,
It might sound harsh,
But I'm done flicking your switch.

Ain't gonna change a thing,
Ain't gonna change my ways,
I don't care where you've been,
I don't care where you go,
Going back to the devil I know, Hey.

Stand up for your life,
Lay down for the knife,
I know what that smile is for,
Hard as I been hit,
I can't be your lover,
So go find another,
It might sound cold,
But I'm done digging your ditch.

Ain't gonna change a thing,
Ain't gonna change my ways,
I don't care where you've been,
I don't care where you go,
Going back to the devil I know.

Trigger

Running through the darkness,
Won't do you no good to flee,
Stalking through the golden state,
Who's bitch do you want to be,
Can't run, can't hide,
Gonna get you wait and see,

You know I'm weird, I know I'm weird,
I'm crazy
Now feel your backbone shiver,
Lucky thing for you babe I'm so lazy,
But I'm gonna pull your trigger.

Look over your shoulder,
And all the windows too,
Bow down to the golden calf,
Which bitch is the one for you,
What you need is extra speed,
Cause I'm gonna hit on you,

You know I'm weird, I know I'm weird,
I'm crazy
Now feel your backbone shiver,
Lucky thing for you babe I'm so lazy,
But I'm gonna pull your trigger.

Know you can't stop,
Move it on over,
But that's another story,
Cause I knew your mama

Out here in the city,
Just half a mile behind,
Searching for the golden rose,
Which bitch would you like to find,
You can't run forever,
And you're still on my mind.

You know I'm weird, I know I'm weird,
I'm crazy
Now feel your backbone shiver,
Lucky thing for you babe I'm so lazy,
But I'm gonna pull your trigger.

You know I'm weird, I know I'm weird,
I'm crazy
Now feel your backbone shiver,
Lucky thing for you babe I'm so lazy,
But I'm gonna pull your trigger.

Under The Gun

We should have got it on, you know it's true,
So many times, I thought I spoke to you,
But I guess it wasn't true, some dreams ain't real,
Wishful thinking, the way I feel,
But you sure looked good this time,
I'm sure it ain't no crime,
A little fantasy, involving you & me.

Cone on Over, lay it down,
It's about time, shoot me a line, lay it down,
All of our lives, running away from the law,
We all live under the sun,
But we don't have to live under the gun.

We still might meet again, you know we could,
I got so many ways, to make you feel so good,
I guess it's up to you, to make it work,
I hope it's true, don't leave me in the dirt,
You sure look good to me, I'm sure you must agree.
Just one more chance, the horizontal dance.

And so we're warm again, perhaps a little wet,
I know a few good ways, make sure you don't forget,
I guess it's real right now, let me show you how,
Some dreams come true, got me next to you,
Can't wait to see, you naked just for me,
Move against me girl, take me around the world.

Cone on Over, lay it down,
It's about time, shoot me a line, lay it down,
All of our lives, running away from the law,
We all live under the sun,
But we don't have to live under the gun.

God Was Never On Your Side

If the stars fall down on me
And the sun refuse to shine
Then may the shackles be undone,
And all the old words, cease to rhyme.
If the skies, turn into stone,
It will matter not at all,
For there is no heaven in the sky,
Hell does not wait for our downfall,

Let the voice of reason shine,
Let the pious vanish for all times,
God's face is, hidden, all unseen,
You can't ask him what it all means
He was never on your side,
God was never on your side
Let right or wrong, alone decide,
God was never on your side.

See the ten thousand ministries,
See the holy righteous dogs,
They claim to heal
but all they do is steal,
Abuse your faith, cheat & rob.
If god is wise, why is he still,
When these false prophets
call him friends,
Why is he silent, is he blind,
Are we abandoned in the end?

Let the sword of reason shine,
Let us be free of prayer & shrine
God's face is hidden, turned away
He never has a word to say
He was never on your side
God was never on your side
Let right or wrong, alone decide,
God was never on your side.
(No, No, No)

He was never on your side,
God was never on your side
Never, Never, Never, Never,
Never on your side [x2]
God was never on your side,
Never on your side.
