Monster Magnet Album

Welcome to the grand adventure
You'll want it fast but you'll take it slow
Welcome to the cave of sorrow that every other one knows
I understand you want some answers so you're casting out the line
I gotta tell you that being truthful takes up too much of my time

Always have the best hallucinations, baby
Cobras and fire

You could raise the setting sun
You're naked number one
I've never loved a dirty omen quite like you
You can worship on the worm or crash the car and burn
I'm pretty sure we'll get what we deserve

Always have the best hallucinations, baby
Cobras and fire
Shake your thing in horny celebration
Honk if you love my lies

She's got her fuel pump and her razor wire
She's got me running like a three-legged dog
She's got her space rock and her holy war
That mule is biting at my nipple all day

I'm like the last boy in the acid bath
I feel my mind just slipping away
She loves her space rock and her holy war
That mule is biting at my nipple all day

Always have the best hallucinations, baby
Cobras and fire
Shake your thing in horny celebration
Honk if you love my lies

Back in the day when I was paying for sleep and I, I couldn't get much ground
I was eating black planets whole and I didn't hear that sound
Because of what I did and who I am, because I love it, God damn true
I put my head on the atomic pile and I did it all for you

Baby, babe I think I lost my mind, now
I've been cryogenic for a long, long time

Bored for a thousand years, you gotta get me out of here
I don't want to rape the world today
Use all your filthy words, the greatest sound I've ever heard
They keep my heart and soul so blown away

Do your space rock voodoo-burn, give me your naked show
When they pulled me out of my plane crash, I told them I was ready to go
I'm a pumped out freak on a big wheel and I'm crossing a frontier of lies
For you baby, for you baby, just let me crawl inside your mind

Baby, babe I think I lost my mind, now
I've been cryogenic for a long, long time

Bored for a thousand years, you gotta get me out of here
I don't want to love the world today
Use all your filthy words, the greatest sound I've ever heard
They keep my heart and soul so blown away

I, I can't sleep at night
Cause that's the only time when I feel truly free
And I just want to drive my car
I'm not sure where I'm going but at least I ain't standing still
I'm feeling nervous and my doctor says to me
"Boy, that ain't nothing that a pill won't cure"

Me, this is all about me
I'm a buzz-word, bluetooth jerk-off on TV
And I ain't gonna try too hard
I wanna win a contest and break off my pieces of the American dream
Give me a bonus 'cause the world has fried my head
I just want what I deserve

Dig that hole
I said to dig that hole, baby

I, I want to start a fire
Fly a jet, save a dog or get paid for being right
But I can't understand this world
The kids just seem to wanna spray pain't the word "nigger" on the wall
Guess I forgive them for they know not what they do
Maybe society's just lost it's cool

Dig that hole
C'mon, c'mon dig that hole

When your mind goes blank in the pouring rain
And you can't get back on your feet again
Well, your girlfriend tells you the world is dead
And it just ain't working inside your head
Get along, little doggie, get on
No one else is gonna sing your song
You can fuck recovery cause you're already gone

I'm a stone, jet fighter with a heart of gold
Well, I'm really mad and I'm really old
And I rule this planet from high above
And it's time I sacrifice all my love
And if you don't like what you see
Go ahead and take it out on me
I'm the big pig apocalypse and I ain't hard to please

I'm a stone, jet fighter with a heart of gold
And I rule this planet from high above
I take what I take because I want what I want
And tonight I'm gonna rock with the gods and punks

I'm a stone, jet fighter with a heart of gold
And I rule this planet from high above
Well, I take what I take because I want what I want
And tonight I'm gonna rock with the gods and punks

When your mind goes blank in the pouring rain
And you can't get back on your feet again
And your girlfriend tells you the world is dead
And it just ain't working inside your head
Now get along, little doggie, get on
No one else is gonna sing your song
You can fuck recovery cause you're already gone

I'm a stone, jet fighter with a heart of gold
And I rule this planet from high above
I take what I take because I want what I want
And tonight I'm gonna rock with the gods and punks

I'm a stone, jet fighter with a heart of gold
And I rule this planet from high above
I take what I take because I want what I want
And tonight I'm gonna rock with the gods and punks

Hey kids, don't look inside 'cause there ain't nothing to see
Just a man and his magic box
He's hypnotized and bulging
A prisoner of his own sloth
A fiery, hound of hell is headed straight for me
But it's OK, I invited him in
He knows more than I do

Well, the sun comes up as a lump of coal and the palm trees catch on fire
And you tap your confession on a cold, dead phone and you realize that you're a liar
There ain't nobody wanna follow you and there ain't no Fantastic Four
And if we're talking the God's honest truth, she don't think about you no more

No one looks into the eye of the Gorgon and lives
Uh, uh, baby, that's just not the way things works
Not for this jerk

Peeking out of my shades I see a girl on a donkey
But she's riding away
No love today

Well, the sun comes up like a lump of coal and the palm trees catch on fire
And you tap your conspicion on a cold, dead phone and you realize that God's a liar
But there ain't nobody wanna follow you and there ain't no Fantastic Four
And if we're talking the God's honest truth, she don't think about you no more

Well, the sun comes up like a lump of coal and the palm trees catch on fire
And you tap your confession on a cold, dead phone, hey, anyone can be a liar
But there ain't nobody wanna follow you and there ain't no Fantastic Four
And if we're talking the God's honest truth, she don't think about you no more

In a world full of mud as far as you can see
No one will love your sorry ass like me
Hey, baby get in focus, I'm talking to you
Crawl into this cave so you can spit out some truth
I know your future's looking fine down at the Lord's hotel

Well, you pissed out the candles on your birthday cake
Come to me for the answer I'm your three headed snake
Hey baby, need a doctor? Want a teacher? Need a scene?
Punk rockers love what's in the Yoo Hoo machine
You won't believe how much I'll care down at the Lord's hotel

I know your future's looking fine. It's looking rosy as hell
You gotta trust your mastermind and keep on ringing that bell

I know your future's looking fine. It's looking rosy as hell
You gotta trust your mastermind and keep on ringing that bell

You won't believe how much I'll care down at the Lord's hotel
You gotta love your mastermind

Ice girl, she's waiting for me on the second moon
If I can blast this crazy loop I'm gonna be there soon
Did you hear your mother threw another sucker to the sun?
He looks a lot like the good old boys of Apollo One

Mama, Mama tell me I ain't gonna die
Maybe baby say you found the astro glide
Hey, there ain't no pay 100 million miles away

Mad God took my girl and made time stand still
I used to hate that stony freak and now I always will
Dead planets ain't no fun, I'm coming in way off time
That constellation looks just like my baby's sweet behind

Mama, Mama tell me I ain't gonna die
Maybe baby say you found the astro glide
Hey, there ain't no pay 100 million miles away

Hey, there ain't no pay 100 million miles away
Hey, there ain't no pay 100 million miles away

Walking down the highway, I've got the Staff of Ra in my hand
Gotta see some people gonna making sure that they understand

Baby's got a fuzz box, I think that she should use it now
Get this fucking bus in the air, I need me some chow
The turbines' running and the moon is down
Jolly Jack K is gonna nuke this town
Baby's got a fuzz box I think that she should use it now

Come on, superstar, won't you throw this old dog a bone?
I would hate to think of Venus spending her nights alone
I can think of easier ways of paying my dues
Choking on my chicken singing 21st century blues
The man with the plan is always yanking on my wire
I got three words for you now, perish in fire

Frustrated, medicated, talk-a-streak American girls
I love them in the tar pit I love them till the end of the world

Come on, superstar, won't you throw this old dog a bone?
I would hate to think of Venus spending her nights alone
I can think of easier ways of paying my dues
Choking on my chicken singing 21st century blues
The man with the plan is always yanking on my wire
I got three words for you now, perish in fire

Darling, let me dry up all your tears
How about Luna Park tonight and then Algiers?
Remember how we stole the pharaohs' gold?
We laughed at all the rubes as they got old

That's all fine if you have a time machine
But I broke mine, can't you see?
Now I'm here on the edge of the world
Missing you, it's true
I'm missing you

I think I'll go to 1969
I'll buy some comic books and replay my whole life
Bills come in that we don't have to pay
I can mend your heart when I change yesterday

That's all fine if you have a time machine
But I broke mine, can't you see?
Now I'm here on the edge of the world
Missing you, it's true
I'm missing you

That's all fine if you have a time machine
But I broke mine, can't you see?
Now I'm here on the edge of the world
Missing you, it's true
I'm missing you

When the flood comes I ain't gonna drown
I'm going on a mission
I'm going on a mission
When the world burns I ain't gonna die
It's OK, it's OK

Hallelujah brothers, Hallelujah girls
Dancing in the fire with your flap jacks set on stun
Press the button, baby
Watch that bacon fry
That's the way, that's the way
Just the notion gets me off
One more disaster and I'm gone

When the planes fall from the sky you'll understand
When the ocean turns to flame you'll understand
When you watch my baby move you'll want to take her hand
When Galactus eats your meds you'll fucking understand

I can feel you coming from a million miles away
You'll be cursing your libido come the judgment day
Move, you little monkey, shake it for me more
I can give you five before I shut the bedroom door

When the planes fall from the sky you'll understand
When the oceans start to boil you'll understand
When you watch my baby move you'll want to take her hand
When Galactus fucks your wife I think you'll understand

Don't unpack your suitcase, I wouldn't guess you'd be staying long
All the nighttime animals are telling me that I've lost your love
We could have made it forever but I killed it right from the start
I went on keeping my secrets leaving both of us with broken hearts
I'm living up on the moon, now and baby it's a lonely life
Taking notes and talking to your ghost and still staying up all night

I could beat my brains out
I could beg you to try and see
But there ain't enough lies in this universe that could spin you back to me
You had to see the creature and of course you couldn't understand
You couldn't swallow that darkness
You were just too scared

I could beat my brains out
I could beg you to try and see
But there ain't enough lies in this universe that could spin you back to me
You had to see the creature and of course you couldn't understand
You couldn't swallow that darkness
You were just too scared

I could beat my brains out
I could beg you to try and see
But there ain't enough lies in this universe that could spin you back to me
I showed you the creature and of course you couldn't take any more
I put you in the darkness and I shut that door

Bad bills and cherry bombs are falling out of my head
I'm sitting before you, but I'm dead
You got something I want, now honey but it ain't what I need
Just tell the doctor let it bleed
I'm sick of my own shit, darlin, I can't take no more
Drag me out of my coma to the floor

I'm all out of nothing, there's nothing today
A burnt out magician with nothing to say

I've got my pick of the floppers, that's right
They're down at the store
But they ain't got a heart beat
Give me more
I'm sick of the bullshit, baby
I won't take no more
Drag me out of my coma to the floor

I'm all out of nothing, there's nothing today
A burnt out magician with nothing to say
Who wants a miracle? Who wants to know?
I'm all out of nothing with nowhere to go

The storm coming from miles away will be much different than yesterday
Call out, baby and call out loud
Your head's too cool to get lost in the crowd

I'm sick of the bullshit, baby
I can't take no more
Drag me out of my coma to the floor

I'm all out of nothing, there's nothing today
A burnt out magician with nothing to say
Who wants a miracle? Who wants to know?
I'm all out of nothing with nowhere to go

We're all sinking in our hearts now, people
100 screens upon the wall
A pretty cloud of confusion come to cover us all

You're smokin' hot mutation baby
You nearly tanned yourself to death
The way you learn that worm just makes me lose my breath

Well pull me up and watch me fade
Your dirty mind is driving me insane
Those good old days ain't coming back again, oh, no

Keep your eye upon the saucer, baby
Ignore the world as it bleeds
You've got your phone and your mirror, what else do you need?

Well pull me up and watch me fade
Your dirty mind is driving me insane
Those good old days ain't coming back again
Not while this hydra head keeps on raping my brain

Well pull me up and watch me fade
Your distored lies just say the same old thing
Your piece of mind ain't coming back again
Not while this hydra head keeps on raping my brain

Well pull me up and watch me fade
Your dirty mind is driving me insane
Those good old days ain't coming back again
Not while this hydra head keeps on raping my brain

Now stick a pin in that old, fat sun
Bring the a curtain down cross the sky
This man can chew on some bubblegum
And on that you can rely

She waits outside my little hole
I've been stuck here for a thousand years
There's no way through without paying her toll
And that's drowning in her hopeless tears
I guess that's the price for being nice
I got what I deserve

I'm in love, I'm in love

Midnight comes and I'm out of smokes
But the dance has just begun
That old raccoon is in the garbage can
And your girlfriend is as good as done
Yes, that's the way the taco folds
2 minus 1 is 1

I'm in love, I'm in love
