Use Your Illusion II (1991)












Civil War lyrics - Guns N' Roses

What we've got here is failure to communicate
Some men, you just can't reach
So, you get what we had here, last week
Which is the way he wants it
Well, he gets it
And I don't like it any more than you men

Look at your young men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always done before
Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before

My hands are tied
The billions shift from side to side
An' the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
An' all these things are swept aside
By bloody hands, time can't deny
An' are washed away by your genocide
An' history hides the lies of our civil wars

D'you wear a black armband when they shot the man
Who said peace could last forever?
An' in my first memories, they shot Kennedy
I went numb when I learned to see
So I never fell for Vietnam
We got the wall in D.C. to remind us all
That you can't trust freedom when it's not in your hands
When everybody's fightin' for their promised land

And I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich, while it buries the poor
Your power hungry, sellin' soldiers in a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh? I don't need your civil war
Ooh, no, no, no, no, no, no

Look at the shoes you're filling
Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always done before
Look in the doubt we've wallowed
Look at the leaders we've followed
Look at the lies we've swallowed
An' I don't want to hear no more

My hands are tied
For all, I've seen has changed my mind
But still, the wars go on, as the years go by
With no love of God or human rights
An' all these dreams are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the cross of homicide
And history bears the scars of our civil wars

We practice selective annihilation
Of mayors and government officials
For example, to create a vacuum
Then we fill that vacuum
As popular war advances
Peace is closer

I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich, while it buries the poor
Your power hungry, sellin' soldiers in a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh? I don't need your civil war
No no no no no no no no no no no no
I don't need your civil war
I don't need your civil war
Your power hungry, sellin' soldiers in a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh? I don't need your civil war
No no no no no no no no no no, no, no
I don't need one more war
Ooh, I don't need one more war
No no no, no whoa, no whoa

What's so civil 'bout war anyway?

14 Years lyrics - Guns N' Roses

I try and feel the sunshine, you bring the rain
You try and hold me down with your complaints
You cry and moan and complain, you whine an tear
Up to my neck in sorrow the touch you bring

You just don't step inside to, to 14 years
So hard to keep my own head, that's what I say and you know
I've been the beggar, I've played the thief
I was the dog they all tried to beat

But it's been 14 years of silence
It's been 14 years of pain
It's been 14 years that are gone forever and I'll never have again

Your stupid girlfriends tell you, that I'm to blame
Well, they're all used up has-beens out of the game
This time I'll have the last word, you hear what I say?
I tried to see it your way, it won't work today

You just don't step inside to, to 14 years
So hard to keep my own head, that's what I say, you know
I've been the dealer hangin' on your street
I was the dog they all tried to beat

But it's been 14 years of silence
It's been 14 years of pain
It's been 14 years that are gone forever and I'll never have again

Bullshit and contemplation, gossip's their trade
If they knew half the real truth, what would they say?
Well I'm past the point of concern, it's time to play
These last four years of madness sure put me straight

You don't get back 14 years in just one day
So hard to keep my own head, just go away, you know
Just like a hooker, she said, "Nothin's for free"
Oh, I tried to see it your way
I tried to see it your way

Yesterdays lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Yesterday, there was so many things I was never told
Now that I'm starting to learn, I feel I'm growing old
'Cause yesterday's got nothing for me
Old pictures that I'll always see
Time just fades the pages in my book of memories
Prayers in my pocket, and no hand in destiny
I'll keep on movin' along with no time to plant my feet
'Cause yesterday's got nothing for me
Old pictures that I'll always see
Some things could be better if we'd all just let them be

Ooh, yesterday's got nothing for me
Yesterday's got nothing for me
Got nothing for me, ooh, yeah

Yesterday, there were so many things I was never shown
Suddenly, this time I found I'm on the streets and I'm all alone
Yesterday's got nothing for me
Old pictures that I'll always see
I ain't got time to reminisce old novelties

Ooh, yesterday's got nothing for me
Yesterday's, ooh, got nothing for me
Yesterday's got nothing for me
Yesterday

Yesterday

Knockin' On Heaven's Door lyrics - Guns N' Roses

(originally by Bob Dylan)

Ooh, ooh
Hey

Mama, take this badge from me
I can't use it anymore
It's gettin' dark, too dark to see
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, hey, hey, hey hey yeah
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, ooh
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, ooh-oh yeah
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, ayy hey yeah
Ooh-oh yeah, oh yeah, aw

Mama, put my guns in the ground (Ooh)
I can't shoot them anymore (Ooh)
That cold black cloud is comin' down (Ooh)
Feels like I'm knockin' on heaven's door (Ooh)

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, hey, hey, hey hey yeah
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, ooh yeah
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, ayy hey yeah
Ooh

You just better start sniffing your own rank subjugation, Jack
Because it's just you against your tattered libido
The bank and the mortician, forever, man
And it wouldn't be luck if you could get out of life alive

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, hey, hey, hey hey yeah
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, ooh yeah
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, ooh, no, no, no, whoa
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, no, no, no, whoa, no
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, ooh yeah
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, yeah, oh

Get In The Ring lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Yeah, c'mon

Why do you look at me, when you hate me?
Why should I look at you, when you make me hate you too?
I sense a smell of retribution in the air
I don't even understand why the fuck you even care

And I don't need your jealousy, yeah
Why drag me down in your misery? (Yeah)

And when you stare, you don't think I feel it
But I'm gonna deal it back to you in spades
When I'm having fun, you know I can't conceal it
'Cause I know you'd never cut it in my game, oh, no

And when you're talking about a vasectomy, yeah
I'll be writing down your obituary, history, ouh

You got your bitches with the silicone injections
Crystal meth and yeast infections
Bleached blond hair, collagen lip injections
Who are you to criticize my intentions?
Got your subtle, manipulative devices
Just like you, I got my vices
I got a thought that would be nice
I'd like to crush your head, tight in my vice
Pain

And that goes for all you punks in the press, that want to start shit by printing lies instead of the things we said
That means you, Andy Secher at Hit Parader, Circus magazine, Mick Wall at Kerrang!
Bob Guccione Jr. at Spin, what you pissed off 'cause your dad gets more pussy than you?
Fuck you, suck my fucking dick
You be ripping off the fucking kids while they be paying their hard-earned money to read about the bands they want to know about?
Printing lies, starting controversy, you want to antagonize me?
Antagonize me, motherfucker, get in the ring, motherfucker and I'll kick your bitchy little ass, punk

I don't like you, I just hate you
I'm gonna kick your ass
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, ouh
Ahahahaha
Ahahahaha
Ahahahaha

You may not like our integrity, yeah
We built a world out of anarchy, oh yeah

And in this corner, weighing
In at 850 pounds, Guns N' Roses!
Get in the ring, get in the ring, get in the ring, get in the ring
Get in the ring, get in the ring, get in the ring, get in the ring (get the fuck in!)
Get in the ring, get in the ring, get in the ring, get in the ring
Get in the ring, get in the ring, get in the ring, get in the ring
Yeah

This song is dedicated to all the Guns N' Fuckin' Roses fans
Who've stuck with us through all the fucking shit
And to all those opposed – hmm, well

Get in the ring, get in the ring

Shotgun Blues lyrics - Guns N' Roses

I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues
I said, I don't know what I did, but I know I gotta move
I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues
I can't wait here forever, I got too much here to lose

An' now you are blowing smoke, I think you're one big joke
Me? I got to lot to learn an' I am still waiting for the heads to turn
You say I walk a line, fuck, they move it every time
You walk a mile in my shoes and then you tell me 'bout singin' the blues
Ah, well, you get what you pay for and freedom's real high priced
And while your ripping off childrens, somebody's fuckin' your wife
It's never made a difference, it's only how you survive

I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues
I said, I don't know what I did, but I know I gotta move
I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues
I can't wait here forever, I got too much here to lose

An' now you ask me why, I said, "It's do or die"
I'll stick it right in your face and then I'll put you in your motherfuckin' place
And you, you can suck my ass an' I think it is so low class
Me? I'm just so concerned, I'm still waitin' for your ass to burn
Oh, you want a confrontation? I'll give you every fuckin' chance
With your verbal masturbation, me? I just like to dance
How's that for provocation? I'm just making a stance

And I'm tired of the frustration of living inside of your lies
And I am wired on indignation, I said, somebody's got to die
Oh

I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues
I said, I don't know what I did, but I know I gotta move
I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues
I can't wait here forever, I got too much here to lose
I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues
Listen motherfucker, you're about to pay your dues
I got the shotgun blues, shotgun blues
If you're goin' up against me then you know you're gonna lose

You think anyone with an I.Q. over 15
Would believe your shit, fuckhead?
Nothing but a fucking pussy

Breakdown lyrics - Guns N' Roses

We all come in from the cold, we come down from the wire
An' everybody warms themselves to a different fire
An' sometimes we get burned, you'd think sometime we'd learn
The one you love is the one that should take you higher
You ain't got no one, you better go back out and find her

Just like children hidin' in a closet, can't tell what's goin' on outside
Sometimes, we're so far off the beaten track, we get taken for a ride
By a parlor trick, or some words of wit, a hidden hand up a sleeve
To think the one you love could hurt you now is a little hard to believe
But everybody, darlin', sometimes bites the hand that feeds

When I look around an' everybody always brings me down
Well, is it them or me? Well, I just can't see but there ain't no peace to found
But if someone really cared, well, they'd take the time to spare
A moment to try and understand another one's despair
Remember, in this game we call life, that no one said it's fair

Breakdown (Let me hear it now)
Breakdown (Let me hear it now, yeah)
Breakdown (Let me hear it now)

I've come to know the cold, I think of it as home
When there ain't enough of me to go around, I'd rather be left alone
But if I call you out of habit, I'm out of love and I gotta have it
Would you give it to me if I fit your needs? Like when we both knew we had it
Now, the damage's done and we're back out on the run
Funny how everything was roses when we held on to the guns
Just because you're winnin' don't mean you're the lucky one

Breakdown (Let me hear it now)
Breakdown (Yeah)
Breakdown (Let me hear it now)

There goes the Challenger, bein' chased by the blue, blue meanies on wheels
The vicious traffic squad cars are after our lone driver
The last American hero, the-the electric sintar
The demi-god, the super driver of the golden west
Two nasty Nazi cars are close behind the beautiful, lone driver
The police cars are getting closer, closer
Closer to our soul hero in his soul mobile
Yeah, baby, they about to strike
They gonna get him, smash, rape
The last beautiful free soul on this planet

But it is written
If the evil spirit arms the tiger with claws
Brahman provided wings for the dove
Thus spake the super guru
D'you hear that?

Pretty Tied Up lyrics - Guns N' Roses

The perils of rock n' roll decadence

I know this chick, she lives down on Melrose
She ain't satisfied without some pain, ooh
Friday night is going up inside her again
Well, crack the whip, 'cause that bitch is just insane
(I'm serious)

She's pretty tied up, hanging upside down
She's pretty tied up and you can ride her
She's pretty tied up, hanging upside down
Ooh, I can't tell you she's the right one
Oh no, oh no, oh no

Once, there was this rock and roll band, rolling on the streets
Time went by and it became a joke
We just needed more and more fulfilling, uh-huh
Time went by and it all went up in smoke
(But check it out)

She's pretty tied up, hanging upside down
She's pretty tied up and you can ride her
She's pretty tied up, hanging upside down
I can't tell you she's the right one
Oh no, oh no, oh no

Once you made that money, it costs more, now
It might cost a lot more than you'd think
I just found a million dollars that someone forgot
It's days like this that push me over the brink
(Cool and stressing)

She's pretty tied up, hanging upside down
She's pretty tied up and you can ride her
She's pretty tied up, hanging upside down
I can't tell you she's the right one

Oh, she's the right one, she's the right one
I can't tell you she's the right one
Oh, she's the right one
She's the right one, she's the right one
Oh no, whoa, whoa, whoa

Locomotive lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Gonna find a way to cure this loneliness
Yeah, I'll find a way to cure the pain
If I said that you're my friend and our love would never end
How long before I had your trust again?
I opened up the doors when it was cold outside
Hoping that you'd find your own way in
But how can I protect you, or try not to neglect you
When you won't take the love I have to give?

Yeah, I bought me an illusion and I put it on the wall
I let it fill my head with dreams and I had to have them all
But, oh, the taste is never so sweet as what you'd believe it is
Well, I guess it never is, it's these prejudiced illusions
That pump the blood to the heart of the biz

You know, I never thought that it could take so long
You know I never knew how to be strong
Yeah, I let you shape me, but I feel as though you raped me
'Cause you climbed inside my world and in my song
So now I've closed the door to keep the cold outside
Seems, somehow, I've found the will to live
But how can I forget you, or try not to reject you
When we both know it takes time to forgive? Yeah, yeah

Sweetness is a virtue and you lost your virtue long ago
You know I'd like to hurt you but my conscience always tells me "No"
You could sell your body on the street to anyone whom you might meet
Who'd love to try and get inside and bust your innocence open wide

'Cause my baby's got a locomotive, my baby's gone off the track
My baby's got a locomotive, got to peel the bitch off my back
I know it looks like I'm insane
Take a closer look, I'm not to blame, no

Gonna have some fun with my frustration
Gonna watch the big screen in my head
I'd rather take a detour 'cause this road ain't getting clearer
Your train of thought has cut me off again
"Better tame that boy, 'cause he's a wild one
Better tame that boy 'fore he's a man"
Sweetheart, don't make me laugh, you's getting too big for your pants
And I think maybe you should cut out while you can

You can use your illusion, let it take you where it may
We live and learn, and then, sometimes, it's best to walk away
Me, I'm just here hanging on, it's my only place to stay
At least for now, anyway
I've worked too hard for my illusions just to throw them all away

I'm taking time for quiet consolation
In passing by this love that's passed away
I know it's never easy, so why should you believe me
When I've always got so many things to say?
Callin' off the dogs, a simple choice is made
'Cause playful hearts can sometimes be enraged
You know I tried to wake you, I mean how long could it take you
To open up your eyes and turn the page?

Kindness is a treasure and it's one, towards me, you've seldom shown
So, I'll say it, for good measure, to all the ones like you, I've known
Ya know I'd like to shave your head and all my friends could paint it red
'Cause love to me is a two-way street, an' all I really want is peace

But my baby's got a locomotive, my baby's gone off the track
My baby got a locomotive, got to peel the bitch off my back
I know it looks like I'm insane
Take a closer look, I'm not to blame, no

Affection is a blessing, can you find it in your sordid heart?
I tried to keep this thing together but the tremor tore my pad apart
Yeah, I know, it's hard to face when all we've worked for's gone to waste
But you're such a stupid woman and I'm such a stupid man
But love, like time, 's got its own plans

But my baby's got a locomotive, my baby's gone off the track
My baby got a locomotive, got to peel the bitch off my back
I know it looks like I'm insane
Take a closer look, I'm not to blame, no
Yeah, if love is blind, I guess I'll buy myself a cane

Love's so strange
Love's so strange
Love's so strange
Love's so strange
Love's so strange
Love's so strange
Love's so strange
Love's so strange
Love's so strange
Love's so strange
Love's so strange

So Fine lyrics - Guns N' Roses

How could she look so fine?
How could it be, she might be mine?
How could she be so cool?
I've been taken for a fool, so many times, hey

It's a story of a man who works as hard as he can
Just to be a man who stands on his own
But the book always burns as the story takes its turn
And leaves a broken man

How could she be so cool? Ah
How could she be so fine?
I owe a favor to a friend
My friends, they always come through for me

It's a story of a man who works as hard as he can
Just to be a man who stands on his own
But the book always burns as the story takes its turn
And leaves a broken man
If you could only live my life you could see the difference
You make to me, to me

And I'd look right up at night
And all I'd see was darkness
Now, I see the stars, alright
I want to reach right up and grab one for you
When the lights went down in your house
Yeah, that made me happy
The sweat I make for you
Yeah, I think you know where that comes from
Guitar, come on

Yeah, when I look right up at night
And all I'd see was darkness
Now, I see the stars, alright
I want to reach right up and grab one for you
When the lights went down in your house
Yeah, that made me happy
The sweat I make for you
I think you know where that comes from

How could she look so good? So good
How could she be so fine?
How could she be so cool?
How could it be, she might be mine?
Yeah

Estranged lyrics - Guns N' Roses

When you're talkin' to yourself and nobody's home
You can fool yourself, you came in this world alone (Alone)

So nobody ever told you, baby, how it was gonna be?
So what'll happen to you, baby? Guess we'll have to wait and see
One, two

Old at heart, but I'm only 28
And I'm much too young to let love break my heart
Young at heart, but it's gettin' much too late
To find ourselves so far apart

I don't know how you're s'posed to find me lately
An' what more could you ask from me, yay?
How could you say that I never needed you?
When you took everythin', said, you took everythin' from me
Hey, yeah

Young at heart, an' it gets so hard to wait
When no one I know can seem to help me now
Old at heart, but I mustn't hesitate
If I'm to find my own way out

Still, talkin' to myself and nobody's home (Alone)

So nobody ever told us, baby, how it was gonna be
So what'll happen to us, baby? Guess we'll have to wait and see

When I find out all the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way, find another day
With all the changin' seasons
Of my life, maybe I'll get it right next time
An' now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds, back down on the ground
An' you don't talk so loud an' you don't walk so proud
Anymore and what for?

Well, I jumped into the river too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own an' driftin' all alone
If it doesn't show, give it time to read between the lines
'Cause I see the storm is gettin' closer
An' the waves, they get so high
Seems everythin' we've ever known's here
Why must it drift away and die?

I'll never find anyone to replace you
Guess I'll have to make it through this time, whoa, this time
Without you
I knew the storm was gettin' closer
And all my friends said I was high
But everythin' we've ever known's here
I never wanted it to die

You Could Be Mine lyrics - Guns N' Roses

I'm a cold heartbreaker, fit to burn and I'll rip your heart in two
And I'll leave you lyin' on the bed
I'll be out the door before you wake 'em, it's nothin' new to you
'Cause I think we've seen that movie, too

'Cause you could be mine, but you're way out of line
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue
You get nothin' done, I said, you could be mine, aw

Now, holidays come and then they go, it's nothin' new today
Collect another memory
When I come home, late at night, don't ask me where I've been
Just count your stars I'm home again

'Cause you could be mine, but you're way out of line
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue
You get nothin' done, I said, you could be mine

You could be mine, you could be mine
You could be mine, you could be mine
You could be mine, mine, mine, mine
You've gone sketching too many times
Ooh, why don't you give it a rest?
Why must you find another reason to cry?

Well, you're breakin' down my back and I've been rackin' out my brain
It don't matter how we make it, 'cause it always ends the same
You can push it for more mileage, but your flaps are wearing thin
And I could sleep on it until mornin', but this nightmare never ends
Don't forget to call my lawyers with ridiculous demands
An' you can take the pity so far, but it's more than I can stand
'Cause this couch-trip's gettin' older, tell me how long has it been?
'Cause five years is forever, and you haven't grown up yet

Oh, you could be mine, but you're way out of line
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue
You get nothin' done, I said, you could, you should be

You could be mine
Oh, you could be mine
You could be mine
Aw, you could be mine
You could be mine

Aw, you could be mine
Aw, you could be mine
Aw, you could be mine
You could be mine, yeah

Don't Cry (Alternate Lyrics) lyrics - Guns N' Roses

If we could see tomorrow, what of your plans?
No one can live in sorrow, ask all your friends
Times that you took in stride, they're back in demand
I was the one who was washing blood off your hands

Don't you cry tonight, I still love you, baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight, there's a heaven above you, baby
And don't you cry tonight

I know the things you wanted, they're not what you have
With all the people talking, it's driving you mad
If I was standing by you, how would you feel
Knowing your love's decided, and all love is real? Yeah, baby

Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight, there's a heaven above you, baby
And don't you cry tonight

I thought I could live in your world as years all went by
With all the voices I've heard, something has died
And when you're in need of someone, my heart won't deny you
So many seem so lonely with no one left to cry to, baby

And don't you cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight
And don't you cry tonight, there's a heaven above you, baby
And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight, baby, maybe someday
Don't you cry, don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight

My World lyrics - Guns N' Roses

You want to step into my world?
It's a socio-psychotic state of bliss
You've been delayed in the real world
How many times have you hit and missed?
Your cat-scan shows dis-figuration
I want to laugh myself to death
With a misfired synapse, with a bent configuration
I'll hold the line, while you gasp for breath

You wanna talk to me? (So talk to me)
You wanna talk to me? (So talk to me)
You wanna talk to me? (So talk to me)
You wanna talk to me? (You can't talk to me)
You wanna talk to me? (Don't understand your sex)
You wanna talk to me? (You ain't been mind-fucked yet)

Let's do it
Let's do it
Let's do it
Oh, my distorted smile
Guess what I'm doin' now, uh

Use Your Illusion I (1991)












Right Next Door To Hell lyrics - Guns N' Roses

I'll take a nicotine, caffeine, sugar fix
Jesus, don't you get tired of turnin' tricks?
But when your innocence dies, you'll find the blues
Seems all our heroes were born to lose
Just walkin' through time, you believe this heat?
Another empty house, another dead-end street
Gonna rest my bones, sit for a spell
This side of heaven is close to hell

Right next door to hell why don't you write a letter to me?
I said, "I'm right next door to hell" and so many eyes are on me
Right next door to hell, I got nowhere else to be
Right next door to hell feels like the walls are closin' in on me

My mama never really said much to me
She was much too young and scared to be
Hell, Freud might say that's what I need
But all I really ever get is greed
And most my friends, they feel the same
Hell, we don't even have ourselves to blame
But times are hard, and thrills are cheaper
As your arms get shorter, your pockets get deeper

Right next door to hell, why don't you write a letter to me?
'Cause, I'm right next door to hell and so many eyes are on me
Right next door to hell, I never thought this is where I'd be
But I'm right next door to hell, thinking time will stand still for me

Fuck you, bitch

Not bad kids, just stupid ones, yeah
Thought we'd own the world an' getting used was havin' fun
I said we're not sad kids, but lucid ones, yeah
Flowin' through life, not collecting anyone
So much out there, still, so much to see
Time's too much to handle, time's too much for me
It drove me up the wall and drove me out of my mind
Can you tell me what this means, come on?

Dust N' Bones lyrics - Guns N' Roses

He lost his mind today
He left it out back on the highway
I-65

She loved him yesterday
Yesterday's over, I said, "Okay, that's alright"
Time moves on, that's the way
We live in hope to see the next day, but that's alright

Sometimes, these things, they are so easy
Sometimes, these things, they are so cold
Sometimes, these things just seem to rip you right in two
Oh no, man, don't let 'em get to you
Oh yeah, ow, yeah

She loved him yesterday
He laid her sister, she said, "Okay, that's alright"
Buried her things today
Way back out, deep behind the driveway and that's alright

Sometimes, these women are so easy
Sometimes, these women are so cold
Sometimes, these women seem to rip you right in two
Only if you let 'em get to you
Oh, oh yeah

Get out on your own
And you take all that you own
And you get up out your home
And then you're just fucking gone

There's no logic here, today
Do as you got to, go your own way, I said, "That's right"
Time's short, your life's your own
And in the end, we are just

Dust an' bones
Dust an' bones
Dust an' bones
An' that's all right, dust an' bone
An' that's all right, dust an' bone
An' that's all right, dust an' bone
An' that's all right, dust an' bone
An' that's all right, dust an' bone
An' that's all right, dust an' bone
An' that's all right, dust an' bone
An' that's all right, dust an' bone
That's all right, dust an' bone
That's all right, dust an' bone
Just dust an' bones, yeah

Live And Let Die lyrics - Guns N' Roses

When you were young, and your heart was an open book
You used to say, "Live and let live"
(You know you did, you know you did, you know you did)
But if this ever-changing world in which we live in
Makes you give in and cry

Say, "Live and let die"
Live and let die

What does it matter to ya?
When you got a job to do
You got to do it well
You got to give the other fella hell

You used to say, "Live and let live"
(You know you did, you know you did, you know you did)
But if this ever-changing world in which we live in
Makes you give in and cry

Say, "Live and let die"
Live and let die

Don't Cry lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Talk to me softly, there's something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow and please don't cry
I know how you feel inside, I've, I've been there before
Something is changing inside you and don't you know?

Don't you cry tonight, I still love you, baby
And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight, there's a heaven above you, baby
And don't you cry tonight

Give me a whisper and give me a sigh
Give me a kiss before you tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now and please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinking of you and the times we had, baby

And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight, there's a heaven above you, baby
And don't you cry tonight

And please remember that I never lied, oh
And please remember how I felt inside now, honey
You gotta make it your own way but you'll be alright now, sugar
You'll feel better tomorrow, come the morning light now, baby

And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight, there's a heaven above you, baby
And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight, baby, maybe someday
Don't you cry, don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight

Perfect Crime lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Kickin' back in the shadow
Got no need for the light
Who's sorry now, old-timer?
Look at how you've spent your life
Scrounging for change, to put some money in your pocket
My, how scratch does burn
Laughing at the suckers as you pissed it away
But I got the time, even I got the muscle
I got the need to lay it all on the line
I ain't afraid of your smokescreen hustle

It's a perfect crime
Goddammit, it's a perfect crime
Motherfucker, it's a perfect crime
I said it's perfect

Keep the demons down and drag the skeletons out
I got a blind man following me, in chains
I said, he's fun to watch when the world has stopped
An' I think he's got something to say
You wanna fuck with me
Don't fuck with me
'Cause I'm what you'll be
So don't fuck with me
If you had a better sense
You'd just step aside from the bad side of me
Don't fuck with the bad side of me
Stay away from the bad side of me
Don't fuck with the bad side

T minus 1:09 and counting
Ostracized, but that's alright
I was thinking about something myself
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight

Call on everybody who's got last rites
Said it's better if you locked them away
Running through the visions at the speed of light
Won't you let me be?
Motherfucker, just let me be
Goddammit, better let me be
Don't you know you better let me, aah!

Perfect crime
Goddammit, it's a perfect crime
Motherfucker, it's a perfect crime
Don't you know, it's a perfect crime?

You Ain't The First lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Rollin'
One, two, three, one, two, three
Two, three, one and

I tried so hard just to get through to you
But your head's so far from the realness of truth
Was it just a come on in the dark, was it meant to last long?
I think you've worn your welcome, honey
I'll just see you along as I sing you this song

One, two, three, one

Time can pass slowly and things always change
Your days been numbered and I've read your last page
You was just a temporary lover, honey, you ain't the first
Lots of others came before you, woman
Said, but you been the worst, said, you been the worst

Two, three and

So, goodbye to you, girl, so long, farewell
I can't hear you crying, your jivin's been hell
So, look for me walking down your street at night
I'll be in with another, deep down inside
Deep down inside

"To the bar!"

"That was a take!"

Bad Obsession lyrics - Guns N' Roses

I can't stop thinking, thinking about sinking
Sinking down into my bed
I call my mother, she's just a cunt now
She said I'm sick in the head
She said, "You ain't special, so who you foolin'?
Don't try to give me a line"

I can't stop thinking 'bout seein' you one more time, oh no
But I already left you and you're better off left behind

It's a bad obsession, it's always messing
It's always messing my mind
It's a bad obsession, it's always messing
It's always messing my mind

Too bad, you're fucked up

I used to be wasted, always tried to take it
Take it down into my vein
I call the doctor, he's just another
He said I'm sick in the brain
He said, "You ain't special, so who you foolin'?
Don't try to give me a line"

But I can't stop thinking 'bout doin' it one more time, oh no
But I already left you and you're better off left behind, oh yeah

Aw, it's a bad obsession, it's always messing
It's always messing my mind
It's a bad obsession, it's always messing
It's always messing my mind

So bad, boy

It's a
It's a
Heads up

It's a bad obsession, it's always messing
It's always messing my mind
Now it's a bad obsession, it's always messing
It's always messing my mind

I can't stop thinking 'bout doin' it one more time, oh no
But I already left you and you're better off left behind, oh oh oh no

It's a bad obsession and it's always messing my mind
But I already left you and you're better off left behind
Maybe you'll do better next time, punk

Back OFF Bitch lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Oh, baby
Pretty baby
Oh, honey
You let me down, honey

I ain't playing childhood games no more
I said, it's time for me to even the score
So, stake your claim, your claim to fame
But, baby, call another name
When you feel the fire, whoa
And taste the flame, whoa yeah yeah

Back off, back off, bitch
Down in the gutter, dying in the ditch
You better back off, back off, bitch
Face of an angel with the love of a witch
Back off, back off, bitch
Back off, back off, bitch

Making love, cheap heartbreaker
Broken-backed, nasty ball-breaker
Stay outta my bed, outta my head
If it's loving you, I'm better off dead

Now back off, back off, bitch
Down in the gutter, dying in the ditch
You better back off, back off, bitch
Face of an angel with the love of a witch
Back off, back off, bitch
Back off, back off, bitch

Emotions ripped, gone on a binge
Light lipped, I said you're off the hinge
Telling lies of such fame and glory
I don't even want to hear your story

Back off, back off, bitch
Down in the gutter, dying in the ditch
You better back off, back off, bitch
Face of an angel with the love of a witch
Back off, back off, bitch
It's such a pity that you're such a bitch
Back off, back off, bitch
It's time to burn-burn the witch
Back off, back off, bitch
Back off, back off, bitch
Back off, back off, bitch
Back off, back off, bitch
Bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch

"Hey, what do you think he's trying to say there, anyway?"
"I think it's something each person's supposed to take in their own special way"
Fucking bitch

Double Talkin' Jive lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Found a head and an arm in the garbage can
Don't know why I'm here
Livin' on the run for oh so long
I gotta go collect

Double talkin' jive, get the money, motherfucker
'Cause I got no more patience
Double talkin' lies
No more patience, man

Back in town, an' a all new friends
They sayin', "How you been?"
Fucked up, and out of place
That's how I felt back then

Double talkin' jive, get the money, motherfucker
'Cause I got no more patience
Double talkin' liar (Lies)
No more patience, man
You dig what I'm sayin'?

November Rain lyrics - Guns N' Roses

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But, darlin', when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same? Yeah

'Cause nothing lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain

We've been through this such a long, long time
Just tryna kill the pain, ooh yeah
But lovers always come and lovers always go
And no one's really sure who's lettin' go today, walkin' away
If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head, just knowin' that you were mine, all mine

So, if you want to love me
Then, darlin', don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
In the cold November rain

Do you need some time on your own?
Do you need some time all alone?
Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own
Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone?

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you, whoa-whoa

Sometimes, I need some time on my own
Sometimes, I need some time all alone
Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own
Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone?

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain, ooh yeah
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame

So, never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
Even cold November rain

Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one, you're not the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one, you're not the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one, you're not the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody

The Garden lyrics - Guns N' Roses

No I won't

You know you're all alone, your friends, they aren't at home
Everybody's gone to the garden
As you look into the trees, you can look, but you don't see
Flowers seem to tease you at the garden
Everybody's there, but you don't seem to care
What's it with you man, and this garden? Yeah

Turned into my worst phobia
A crazy man's utopia
If you're lost, no one can show ya
But it sure was glad to know ya
Only poor boys take a chance
On the garden's song and dance
Feel her flowers, as they wrap around
But only smart boys do without

You can find it all inside, no need to wrestle with your pride
No, you ain't losing your mind, you're just in the garden
They can lead you to yourself or you can throw it on the shelf
But you know you can look inside for the garden

I wasn't really scared
Lost my virginity there
To a gypsy with blond hair
But now no one seems to care
Like a mouse inside a maze
Wandering 'round for daze
With a smile upon my face
I never want to leave this place
Only poor boys take a chance
On this garden song and dance
Feel her flowers, as they wrap around
But only smart boys do without
Turned into my worst phobia
It's a crazy man's utopia
If you're lost no one can show you
But it sure was glad to know you

Bye-bye, so long, bye-bye
It's glad to know you
Bye-bye
Bye-bye
Aw, so long

Garden Of Eden lyrics - Guns N' Roses

It's a critical solution, and the east coast got the blues
It's a mass of confusion, like the lies they sell to you

You got a glass-jawed toothache of a mental disease
And they be running 'round back, see them line up on their knees
'Cause the kiss-ass sycophants, throwing penance at your feet
When they got nowhere to go, watch them come in off the streets
While they're banging out front inside they're slamming to the crunch
Go on an throw me to the lions and the whole damn screaming bunch
'Cause the pissed-off rip-offs, they're everywhere you turn
Tell me how a generation's ever supposed to learn

This fire is burning, and it's out of control
It's not a problem, you can't stop, it's rock n' roll

I read it on a wall, it went straight to my head
It said, "Dance to the tension of a world on edge"
We got racial violence, and who'll cast the first stone?
And sex is used anyway it can be
Sometimes, when I look out, it's hard to see the day
It's a feeling, you can have it, it's not mine to take away

Lost in the Garden of Eden
Said, we're lost in the Garden of Eden
And there's no one who's gonna believe this
But we're lost in the Garden of Eden

This fire is burning, and it's out of control
It's not a problem, you can't stop, it's rock n' roll
Suck on that

Looking through this point of view, there's no way I'm gonna fit in
No, you tell me what my eyes see, don't you tell me who to believe in
I ain't superstitious, but I know when something's wrong
I've been dragging my heels with a bitch called hope
Let the undercurrent drag me along

Lost in the Garden of Eden
Said, we're lost in the Garden of Eden
And there's no one who's gonna believe this
But we're lost in the Garden of Eden, come on

Oh yeah

Most organized religions make a mockery of humanity
Our governments are dangerous and out of control
The Garden of Eden is just another graveyard
Said, if they had someone to buy it, said I'm sure they'd sell my soul

This fire is burning, and it's out of control
It's not a problem, you can't stop, it's rock n' roll

Lost in the Garden of Eden
Said, we're lost in the Garden of Eden
(And we ain't talkin' about no poison apple
Or some missin' rib, ya hear?)
Said, there's no one who's gonna believe this
Said, we're lost in the Garden of Eden

This fire is burning, and it's out of control
It's not a problem, you can't stop, it's rock n' roll

Don't Damn Me lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Don't damn me when I speak a piece of mind
'Cause silence isn't golden when I'm holding it inside
'Cause I've been where I have been and I've seen what I have seen
I put the pen to the paper 'cause it's all a part of me

Be it a song or a casual conversation
To hold my tongue speaks of quiet reservations
Your words, once heard, they can place you in a faction
My words may disturb, but at least there's a reaction
Oh yeah, oh, oh yeah
Sometimes I wanna kill, sometimes I wanna die
Sometimes I wanna destroy, sometimes I wanna cry
Sometimes I could get even, sometimes I could give up
Sometimes I could give, sometimes I never give a fuck

It's only for a while, I hope you understand
I never wanted this to happen, didn't want to be a man
So I hid inside my world, I took what I could find
I cried when I was lonely, I fell down when I was blind

So, don't damn me when I speak a piece of mind
'Cause silence isn't golden when I'm holding it inside
'Cause I've been where I have been and I've seen what I have seen
I put the pen to the paper 'cause it's all a part of me

How can I ever satisfy you?
And how can I ever make you see that
Deep inside, we're all somebody
And it don't matter who you, you wanna be?

But now I gotta smile, I hope you comprehend
For, this man can say it happened 'cause this child has been condemned
So I stepped into your world, I kicked you in the mind
And I'm the only witness to the nature of my crime

But look at what we've done to the innocent and young
Whoa, listen to who's talking 'cause we're not the only ones
The trash collected by the eyes and dumped into the brain
Said, it tears into our conscious thoughts, you tell me, who's to blame?

I know you don't wanna hear me cryin'
And I know you don't wanna hear me deny
That your satisfaction lies in your illusion
But your delusions are yours, and not mine
We take for granted, we know the whole story
We judge a book by its cover and read what we want
Between selected lines

Don't hail me and don't idolize the ink
Or I've failed in my intentions, can you find the missing link?
Your only validation is living your own life
Vicarious existence is a fucking waste of time

So I send this song to the offended
I said what I meant and I've never pretended
As so many others do, intending just to please
If I damned your point of view, could you turn the other cheek?

Oh
Don't damn me when I speak a piece of mind
'Cause silence isn't golden when I'm holding it inside
'Cause I've been where I've been and I've seen what I have seen
I put the pen to the paper 'cause it's all a part of me

Don't damn me
I said, don't damn me
I said, don't hail me
Ah, don't damn me
Ouh

Smoke 'em if you got 'em
Alright, that sucked

Bad Apples lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Diamonds and fast cars, money to burn
I got my head in the clouds, I got these thoughts to churn
Got my feet in the sand, I got a house on the hill
I got a headache like a mother twice the price of my thrills

And it's a cold day in the continental drift
I said this traffic is hell, can you give me a lift?
And I'll try to paint a story, got your pictures to tell
Yeah, you got to make a livin' with what you bring yourself to sell

I got some genuine, imitation bad apples
Free sample for your peace of mind, only $9.95

I got my camera back from customs, got my law fees up to date
Hell, they must've seen me comin', ain't this life so fuckin' great?

When the shit hit the fan, it was all I could stand, yeah
Well, I'm a frequent flyer
My body's breathin' while it can but what I don't understand is that
My world ain't gettin' no brighter
If I could touch the sky, well, I would float on by
While everybody's talkin', hell, I'm just another guy
If it were up to me, I'd say, just leave me be
Why let one bad apple spoil the whole damn bunch?

Gold and caviar
Now, won't you pour my apathy?
I'd have all the bases covered
If I could teach my hands to see

Now, we're down in the deep end where they'd love to watch you drown
I said, your laundry could use washing, we'll hang it up all over town
I said, Hollywood's like a dryer an' we're down on Sunset Strip
An' you'll be suckin' down the Clorox 'til your life's all nice and crisp

When the shit hits the fan, it was all I could stand, yeah
I'm a frequent flyer
My body's breathin' while it can but what I don't understand is that
My world ain't gettin' no brighter
If I could touch the sky, I would float on by
While everybody's talkin', hell, I'm just another guy
If it were up to me, I'd say, just leave me be
Why let one bad apple spoil the whole damn bunch?

When the shit hits the fan, it was all I could stand, yeah
I'm a frequent flyer
My body's breathin' while it can but what I don't understand is that
My world ain't gettin' no brighter
If I could touch the sky, I would float on by
While everybody's talkin', hell, I'm just another guy
If it were up to me, I'd say, just leave me be
Why let one bad apple spoil the whole damn bunch?
Why let that one bad apple spoil the whole damn bunch?

Boy!

Dead Horse lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Sick of this life, not that you'd care
I'm not the only one with whom, these feelings, I share
Nobody understands quite why we're here
We're searching for answers that never appear
Maybe if I looked real hard, I'd, I'd see you trying, too
To understand this life that we're all going through
"Then when she said she was going to, like, wreck my car
I didn't know what to do"

Oh, sometimes, I feel like I'm beating a dead horse
And I don't know why you'd be bringing me down
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
It may sound funny, but you'd think, by now, I'd be smiling
I guess some things never change
Oh, never change

I met an old cowboy, I saw the look in his eyes
Something tells me he's been here before 'cause experience makes you wise
I was only a small child when the thought first came to me
That I'm a son of a gun and the gun of a son that brought back the devil in me

Oh, but sometimes, I feel like I'm beating a dead horse
I don't know why you'd be bringing me down
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
It may sound funny, but you'd think, by now, I'd be smiling
Yeah, I guess some things never change
Ooh, never change

I ain't quite what you'd call an old soul
Still, wet behind the years
I've been around this track a couple of times
But now the dust is starting to clear, oh, yeah

Sometimes, I feel like I'm beating a dead horse
I don't know why you'd be bringing me down
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
It may sound funny, but you'd think, by now, I'd be smiling
Ooh, yeah, I'd be smiling
No way I'd be smiling
Ooh, smiling

Sick of this life, not that you'd care
I'm not the only one with whom, these feelings, I share

Coma lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Hey, you caught me in a coma and I don't think I
Wanna ever come back to this world again
Kinda like it in a coma 'cause no one's ever gonna
Oh, make me come back to this world again
Now, I feel as if I'm floating away
I can't feel all the pressure, and I like it this way
But my body's calling, my body's calling:
"Won't you come back to this world again?"
Suspended deep in a sea of black
I've got the light at the end, I've got the bones on the mast
Well, I've gone sailing, I've gone sailing
I could leave so easily, my friends are calling back to me
I said, they're, they're leavin' it all up to me
When all I needed was clarity, and
Someone to tell me what the fuck is goin' on
Goddamn it

Slipping farther and farther away
It's a miracle how long we can stay
In a world our minds created
In a world that's full of shit

Help me
"Okay, let's get this guy in the program please, we're losing him." "Start an IV Please."
Help Me
"Come on... His airways.. someone's got to protect his airways. I want two..."
"Where's the defibrillator?"
"Two IV's over here, please. That's two more now. We're losing him"
"Let's go"
Help Me
"Slow-motion here. This guy's going..."
Bastard
"Let's get him in ER"
"...Going out on us"
"Who's got the defibrillator?"

Please understand me

I'm climbing through the wreckage of all my twisted dreams
But this cheap investigation just can't stifle all my screams
And I'm waiting at the crossroads, waiting for you
Waiting for you, where are you?

No one's going to bother me anymore
No one's going to mess with my head no more
I can't understand what all the fighting's for
But it's so nice here, down off the shore
I wish you could see this, 'cause there's nothing to see
It's peaceful here and it's fine with me
Not like the world where I used to live
I never really wanted to live, ah

I know
"Okay, we're starting to lose this guy. I want that IV and his airway protected!"
"Let's get some people in here!"
"Get the crash cart please, we're losing this guy. He's going..." "Give me an airway please"
"... Going under."
"Clear"
Zap him again
"How about an IV, stat?"
"Okay... you better protect the airway, you're starting to lose him." "clear!"
Zap the son of a bitch again

"Listen to me"
"Axl, are you listening to me?"
"Don't walk away from me!"
'You are such a fucking prick, I am so pissed with you"
"Get back over here!"
"All I hear is bullshit, all the time"
"All you ever wanna do is have sex, sex sex"
"I just don't give a shit anymore"
"I love you"

You live your life like it's a coma, won't you tell me why we'd wanna?
With all the reasons you give, it's, it's kinda hard to believe
But who am I to tell you that I've seen any reason why you should stay?
Maybe we'd be better off without you, anyway
You got a one-way ticket, on your last chance ride
Got a one-way ticket to your suicide
Got a one-way ticket, and there's no way out alive
An' all this crass communication that has left you in the cold
Isn't much for consolation when you feel so weak and old
But if home is where the heart is, then there's stories to be told
No, you don't need a doctor, no one else can heal your soul
Got your mind in submission, got your life on the line
But nobody pulled the trigger, they just stepped aside
They be down by the water while you watch 'em waving goodbye
They be calling in the morning, they be hanging on the phone
They be waiting for an answer, but you know nobody's home
When the bell's stopped ringing it was nobody's fault, but your own
There were always ample warnings, there were always subtle signs
And you would have seen it comin' but we gave you too much time
And when you said that no one's listening, why'd your best friend drop a dime?
Sometimes, we get so tired of waiting for a way to spend our time
An' it's so easy to be social, it's so easy to be cool
Yeah, it's easy to be hungry, when you ain't got shit to lose
And I wish that I could help you with what you hope to find
But I'm still out here, waiting, watching reruns of my life
When you reach the point of breaking, know it's gonna take some time
To heal the broken memories that another man would need just to survive

G N' R Lies (1988)












Reckless Life lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Hey fuckers! Suck on Guns N' fuckin' Roses!

I am reckless and feeling no pain
You know I have got no need to control
Living with the danger, I am always on the edge now
With million dollar visions that I hold
Living like this never ever tore my life apart
I know how to maintain and you know I know my part

On a holiday, a permanent vacation
I'm living on a cigarette with wine
I am never alone because I have got myself
Yes, I imitate myself all of the time
Living like this never ever tore my life apart
I know how to maintain because it is coming from my heart

I lead a reckless life and I don't need your advice
I lead a reckless life and you know it's my only vice

Reckless life, I lead a reckless life
I lead a reckless life and you know it's my only
Reckless life, I lead a reckless life
I lead a reckless life and you know it's my only

Nice Boys lyrics - Guns N' Roses

She hit town like a rose in bloom
Smelling sweet, said sweet perfume
The color faded and the petals died
Down in the city, no one cried

In the streets, the garbage lies
Protected by a million flies
The roaches so big, you know that they got bones
They moved in and made a tenement home

I said, "Nice boys don't play rock and roll"
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
I'm not a nice boy

Sweet sixteen she was fresh and clean
Wanted so bad to be part of the scene
She met the man and she did the smack
Paid the price laying flat on her back

Wanted so bad just to please the boys
They ended up just being a toy
Played so hard burned her life away
Lies were told no promises made

You know, nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
I'm not a nice boy and I never was

Young and fresh when she hit town
Hot for kicks just to get her ass around
But now she lays in a filthy room
She kills the pain with a flick and a spoon

And in the streets, the garbage lies
Protected by a million flies
You know the roaches so big, you know that they got bones
Moved in and made a tenement home

Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll

Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Na, na, na na, na, na, baby
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
I'll bet your mamma said
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys don't play rock and roll
Nice boys

Move To The City lyrics - Guns N' Roses

You pack your bags and you move to the city
There is something missing here at home
You fix your hair and you are looking real pretty
It's time to get it out on your own
You are always fighting with your mama and your papa
Your family life is one big pain
When you, you gonna move to the city
Into the city where it all began

You gotta move, you gotta move
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, time you gotta move

You stole your mama's car and your daddy's plastic credit card
You are sixteen and you can't get a job you're not going very far
You are always riding with the teachers and the police
This life is much too insane
When you, you are going to move to the city
Into the city where it all began

You gotta move, you gotta move
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, time you gotta move

Right to the city where the real men get it
Child isn't it a pity
Sometimes it gets too shitty
Come on and hit me

You are on the streets and it isn't so pretty
You need to get a new what you please
You do what you got to do for the money
At times you end up on your knees
I am always buying with the local and the junkies
This city life is one big pain
But you, you had to move to the city
Into the city where it all began

You gotta move, you gotta move
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, time you gotta move

Oh right to the city with the real nitty gritty
Aw, child isn't it a pity
Sometimes it gets too shitty
Come on and hit me

Mama Kin lyrics - Guns N' Roses

This is the song about your fucking mother

It ain't easy living like a gypsy
Telling you, honey, how it feels
I've been dreaming, floating downstream
And losing touch with all that's real
Whole lot of lover, keeping undercover
Never knowing where you been, oh yeah
You've been fading, always out parading
Keep in touch with mama kin
You always got your tail on the wag
Spitting fire from your mouth just like a dragon
You act like a perpetual drag
You better check it out 'cause someday soon
You gonna climb back on the wagon

It isn't easy living like you wanna
It's so hard to find piece of mind, yes it is
The way I see it, you got to say 'shee-it'
But don't forget to drop me a line

Bald as an egg at eighteen
And working for daddy's such a drag
You still stuff your mouth with his beans
You better check it out or someday soon
You gonna climb back on the wagon

Keep in touch with mama kin
Tell her where you gone and been
Livin' out your fantasy
Sleepin' late and smokin' tea
Keep in touch with mama kin
Tell her where you gone and been
Livin' out your fantasy
Sleepin' late and suckin' me, oh no

It ain't easy living like you wanna
It's so hard to find piece of mind, yes it is
The way I see it, you got to say 'shee-it'
But don't forget to drop me a line

Bald as an egg at eighteen
And working for daddy's such a drag
You still stuff your mouth with his beans
You better check it out or someday soon
You gonna climb back on the wagon

Keep in touch with mama kin
Tell her where you gone and been
Living out your fantasy
Sleeping late and smoking tea
Keep in touch with mama kin
Tell her where you gone and been
Living out your fantasy
Sleeping late and sucking me, oh no, no, no, yeah

Patience lyrics - Guns N' Roses

One, two, one, two, three, four

Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you, I'm still alright to smile
Girl, I think about you every day now
Was a time when I wasn't sure, but you set my mind at ease
There is no doubt you're in my heart now

Said, woman, take it slow and it'll work itself out fine
All we need is just a little patience
Said, sugar, make it slow and we'll come together fine
All we need is just a little patience
Patience, mm yeah

I sit here on the stairs 'cause I'd rather be alone
If I can't have you right now, I'll wait, dear
Sometimes I get so tense, but I can't speed up the time
But you know, love, there's one more thing to consider

Said, woman, take it slow and things will be just fine
You and I'll just use a little patience
Said, sugar, take the time 'cause the lights are shinin' bright
You and I've got what it takes to make it
We won't fake it, aw, I'll never break it, 'cause I can't take it

(Little patience, hm yeah, hm yeah)
(Need a little patience, yeah)
(Just a little patience, yeah)
(Some more patience)
I've been walkin' the streets at night (Yeah)
Just tryin' to get it right (A little patience)
It's hard to see with so many around (Yeah)
You know I don't like bein' stuck in the crowd (Could use some patience)
An' the streets don't change, but maybe the names (Yeah)
I ain't got time for the game 'cause I need you (Gotta have more patience)
Yeah-yeah, but I need you (Yeah)
Ooh, I need you (All it takes is patience)
Oh, I need you (Just a little patience)
Ooh, this time (Is all you need)

Used To Love Her lyrics - Guns N' Roses

I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, hm yeah, but I had to kill her
I had to put her six feet under
And I can still hear her complain

I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, hm yeah, but I had to kill her
I knew I'd miss her so I had to keep her
She's buried right in my backyard

I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, hm yeah, but I had to kill her
She bitched so much, she drove me nuts
And now I am happier this way
Whoa, whoa, yeah, take it for what it is

I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, hm yeah, but I had to kill her
I had to put her six feet under
And I can still hear her complain

You're Crazy lyrics - Guns N' Roses

I've been looking for a trace
Looking for a heart
Looking for a lover in a world
That's much too dark

You don't want my love
You want satisfaction, oh yeah
You don't need my love
You got to find yourself another piece of the action, yeah

Said where you going
What you gonna do
I've been looking everywhere
I've been looking for you

You don't want my love
You want satisfaction, I've got your satisfaction
You don't need my love
You got to find yourself another piece of the action

Because you're crazy, hey hey
You're fucking crazy, oh my
You know you're crazy, oh child
I said you're crazy, ay, ay, yeah
Uh yeah, aow, oh!

Say, boy, where you coming from
Where would you get that point of view
When I was younger
Said I knew someone like you

And they said, "You don't want my love"
You want to satisfaction
You don't need my love
You've got to find yourself another piece of the action

'Cause you're crazy, hey hey
You're fucking crazy, oh my
You know you're crazy, oh child
I said you're crazy
Oh, you're crazy
You know you're crazy
Well, you're crazy
You know you're crazy, oh

You know you are
Bring it down
You're fuckin' crazy

One In A Million lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Guess I needed some time to get away
I needed some peace of mind, some peace of mind that'll stay
So I thumbed it down to 6th in L.A
Maybe a Greyhound could be my way
Police and niggers, that's right, get out of my way
Don't need to buy none of your gold chains today
Now, don't need no bracelets clamped in front of my back
Just need my ticket, 'til then, won't you cut me some slack

You're one in a million, yeah, that's what you are
You're one in a million, babe, you're a shooting star
Maybe someday we'll see you before you make us cry
You know we tried to reach you but you were much too high
Much too high, much too high, much too high

Immigrants and faggots, they make no sense to me
They come to our country and think they'll do as they please
Like start some mini Iran or spread some fucking disease
They talk so many God damn ways, it's all Greek to me
Well, some say I'm lazy and others say that's just me
Some say I'm crazy, I guess I'll always be
But it's been such a long time since I knew right from wrong
It's all the means to and end, I, I keep it moving along
Hey, hey, hey, yeah

You're one in a million, yeah, you're a shooting star
You're one in a million, babe, you know that you are
Maybe some day we'll see you before you make us cry
You know we tried to reach you but you were much too high
Much too high, much too high, much too high, oh

Radicals and racists, don't point your finger at me
I'm a small town white boy just trying to make ends meet
Don't need your religion, don't watch that much TV
Just making my living, baby, well, that's enough for me

You're one in a million, yeah, you know that you are
You're one in a million, babe, you're a shooting star
Maybe someday we'll see you before you make us cry
You know we tried to reach you but you were much too high
Much too high, much too high, oh, much too high

Much too high, much too high, much too high
Much too high, much too high, much too high

Appetite For Destruction (1987)












Welcome To The Jungle lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Oh my God
Jump

Welcome to the jungle, we got fun and games
We got everything you want, honey, we know the names
We are the people that can find whatever you may need
If you got the money, honey, we got your disease

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your shun-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-knees, knees
Muah, ah, I wanna watch you bleed

Welcome to the jungle, we take it day-by-day
If you want it you're gonna bleed, but it's the price you pay
And you're a very sexy girl, who's very hard to please
You can taste the bright lights, but you won't get them for free

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my, my serpentine
Oh, ah, I wanna hear you scream

Welcome to the jungle, it gets worse here every day
You learn to live like an animal in the jungle where we play
If you got a hunger for what you see, you'll take it eventually
You can have anything you want, but you better not take it from me

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your shun-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-knees, knees
Muah, I'm gonna watch you bleed

And when you're high, you never ever wanna come down
So down, so down, so down, yeah

You know where you are?
You're in the jungle, baby
You're gonna die

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your shun-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-knees, knees
In the jungle, welcome to the jungle
Feel my, oh my, my, my serpentine

Jungle, welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your shun-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-knees, knees

Down in the jungle, welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your—it's gonna bring you down, huh

It's So Easy lyrics - Guns N' Roses

I see your sister in her Sunday dress
She's out to please, she pouts her best
She's out to take, no need to try
She's ready to make

It's so easy, easy
When everybody's trying to please me, baby
It's so easy, easy
When everybody's trying to please me

Cars are crashing every night
I drink and drive everything's in sight
I make the fire, but I miss the firefight
I hit the bullseye every night

It's so easy, easy
When everybody's trying to please me, baby
Yeah, it's so easy, easy
When everybody's trying to please me

It's so easy
But nothing seems to please me
It all fits so right
When I fade into the night
See me hit you, you fall down, huh

I see you standing there
You think you're so cool
Why don't you just
Fuck off

You get nothing for nothing if that's what you do
Turn around, bitch, I got a use for you
Besides, you ain't got nothing better to do
And I'm bored

It's so easy, easy
When everybody's trying to please me, baby
Yeah, it's so easy, easy
When everybody's trying to please me

It's so easy
But nothing seems to please me
It all fits so right
When I fade into the night
So come with me
Don't ask me where 'cause I don't know
I'll try to please you
I ain't got no money, but it goes to show

It's so easy, so fucking easy
It's so easy, so damn easy
It's so easy, oh, so fucking easy
It's so easy, yeah, so easy

It's so easy, so fucking easy
It's so easy, yeah!

Nightrain lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Loaded like a freight train
Flyin' like an aeroplane
Feelin' like a space brain
One more time tonight

Well, I'm a west coast struttin
One bad mother(fucker)
Got a rattlesnake suitcase under my arm
Said, I'm a mean machine, been drinkin' gasoline
And, honey, you can make my motor hum
Well, I got one chance left in a nine lives cat
I got a dog eat dog sly smile
I got a Molotov cocktail with a match, to-go
I smoke my cigarette with style
And I can tell you, honey, you can make my money tonight
Wake up late, honey, put on your clothes
An' take your credit card to the liquor store
An' that's one for you, and two for me by tonight

I'll be loaded like a freight train
Flyin' like an aeroplane
Feelin' like a space brain
One more time tonight

I'm on the nightrain, bottoms up
I'm on the nightrain, fill my cup
I'm on the nightrain, ready to crash and burn, I never learn
I'm on the nightrain, I love that stuff
I'm on the nightrain, an' I can never get enough
I'm on the nightrain, never to return, no

Loaded like a freight train
Flyin' like an aeroplane
Speedin' like a space brain
One more time tonight

I'm on the nightrain, an' I'm looking for some
I'm on the nightrain, so I can leave this slum
I'm on the nightrain, an' I'm ready to crash and burn
Nightrain, bottoms up
I'm on the nightrain, fill my cup
I'm on the nightrain, ah, ah, ah, whoa yeah
I'm on the nightrain, love that stuff
I'm on the nightrain, an' I can never get enough
Ridin' the nightrain, I guess I, I guess, I guess, I guess, I never learn
On the nightrain, float me home
Oh, I'm on the nightrain
Ridin' the nightrain, never to return
Nightrain

Out Ta Get Me lyrics - Guns N' Roses

Been hidin' out and layin' low
It's nothing new to me
Well, you can always find a place to go
If you can keep your sanity

They break down the doors and they rape my rights, but
They won't judge me!
They scream and yell and fight all night
You can't tell me!
I lose my head, I close my eyes
They won't judge me!
'Cause I got something I've been building up inside
For so fuckin' long!

They're out to get me
They won't catch me
I'm fucking innocent
They won't break me

Sometimes it's easy to forget where you're goin'
Sometimes it's harder to leave
And every time you think you know just what you're doin'
That's when your troubles exceed

They push me into a corner just to get me to fight, but
They won't judge me!
They preach and yell and fight all night
You can't tell me!
I lose my head, I close my eyes
They won't judge me!
'Cause I got something I've been buildin' up inside
I'm already gone!

They're out to get me
They won't catch me
'Cause I'm innocent
They won't break me

No
No wow-oh
No-no
No-no-no! No-no-no!
No
No wow-oh
No-no
No-no-no!

Some people got a chip on their shoulder
And some would say it was me
But I didn't buy that a fifth of whiskey that you gave me
So I'd be quick to disagree

They're out to get me
They won't catch me
I'm fucking innocent
They won't break me

They're out to get me
They won't catch me
'Cause I'm innocent

So, you can suck me
Take that one to heart
