Original Star Wars Trailer (before the movie's released in 1977) Sample :
Somewhere in space, this may all be happening right now

U.N.K.L.E. 77 are requesting information...

Styles like Al Pacino
Reno until the parcelino
The mad dino with the bambino, the gambino
Digger than Jim Colisemo
More reservoir dogs than Tarantino
Scales for Venezuela, Brown as Ni O
Making the block hotter than Jalepe OS
G. Luciano
Be wettin' shit like Pesci in "Casino"
Fifty dollar cigar seer
The Bosnia, the mafia
Don P. like Garcia
Drug Czar and the baby-Pah beater
The M-8 behind the bar-freer
The poughkenoughs, the panama skier
Down with the parmesan
Ready to comb like Vietnam with arms
'Cause the hollow-points and phenomenon
The cheddar-spreader
The killer with the gold Carretta
N-Leader
The sweater-letter with the hollow letter
Drama-setter
The patmeretta gettin' redder kids and mamma
Shredder
Infra-red clow off the armour better
The godfather, the problem solver
Coming through with the 6 shell revolver
Hot as lava
Guns skills that reel and in the 'ville I be the barber
Gangster saga, the motha-fuckin' face carver

Drums of death hold your breath
Give you a dose of shit that's dope as soda
The underworld family cosa-nostra
Pearl-handle inside the shoulder-holster
G. Luciano with a click but nothin' but N-S & Chicanos
You get hit up like Castrelano
italiano like crime familia
N- don't get familiar
Me and my goons might have to kill you
Up in New York
We play bloodsports at home court
And hold down forts
Soon as ya caught, get your dome torched
G Rap and Dj Shadow leave your bone squashed
Squeeze the chrome short, take no shorts
We judge and jury in the home court
Give you the clown corpse dead on the sidewalk
Surrounded by mad pedefors
Your whole frame laid in the white chalk
You got the smoking section
First-class tickets to resurrection
Forever destined to a place where N-S never rest in
Headed in hell's direction
Lost at the crossroads and intersection
Should've wore a vest for chest protection
Slug fill you to capacity, someone at the dance
Someone with the hand velocity of Butch Cassidy
Bitch N- with the audacity to blaspheme me
Got yourself caught in a motha-fuckin' tragedy

Drums of death

. . .


There...there...there...there...

Put aside the everyday world and come with us
Into the realm of imagination
The middle ground between light and shadow
U-N-K-L-E
...would've ordinarily unveiled themselves as a guarantee of anonymity
But could include among other notable figures....
DJ Shadow and James Lavelle
Keep on rockin, keep on rock...rock...rock...keep on rockin
Keep-keep-keep on rock...K-L-E...keep on....K-L-E
Keep on...L-E, L-E...rockin
U-N-K-L-E, U-N-K, U-N-K, U-N-K-K-L-L-E
It's the awesome eternal UNKLE word-word-word....word
Science fiction, science, science fiction, science fiction
Fiction, fiction, science, science fict- biobreaker
An adventure unlike anything on your planet **
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Keep keep on rockin
Keep keep in keep keep keep in keep keep on keep keep in keep on
Keep on keep keep keep on rockin
Keep on U keep on N keep on K keep on L keep on E
Keep on rockin E
U (U-N) N (L-L-L) K-L-E....
There were too many of us
We had access to too many, uh, too much money
Too much equipment, and little by little we went insane
Fiery the angels fell...burning with the fires of Orc
U-N-K-L-E, U-N-K, U-N-K, U-N-K-K-L-L-E
A ticket to nothingness...
UNKLE

Alice Temple :
They say if you took it all away
This love would fall apart
I say, no way
You don't know the size of my heart.

Vicious, suspicious
It doesn't matter what I say
Users and losers
There's nothing here to make me
stay.

Bloodstain on a blue vein
Take it with no shame
Love tracks on a loose train
Bloodstain

No gain with no pain
My scars are deeper than you think
Tie me, try me
One more time before I sink.

Big lies, big times
This love is not what we're about
It's too late, and I'm too straight
It's time to blow this fire out.

Bloodstain on a blue vein
Take it with no shame
Love tracks on a loose train
Bloodstain on a blue vein

Take me softly
I'm going crazy for your touch.

Bloodstain on a blue vein
(Blue....blood, blue....blood,
blue...blood)
Take it with no shame
(No...take, no...take, no...take)

Be Be K Roche sample :
I'm alone
And dissatisfied
And someone else is alone
And dissatisfied

Blade Runner sample :
You are alone?



. . .


Maybe I can help you ?

How should you feel
When you've felt everything you can feel
And you still feel unreal ?

How should you feel
When you've felt everything you can feel
And you still feel unreal ?
You're unreal
How do you feel

. . .


God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls
Yeah, yeah

I believe there's a time and a place
To let your mind drift and get out of
this place
I believe there's a day and a place
That we will go to, and I know you
wanna share.

There's no secret to living (There's
no secret to living)
Just keep on walking
There's no secret to dying (There's
no secret to dying)
Just keep on flying.

I'm gonna die in a place that don't
know my name
I'm gonna die in a space that don't
hold my fame.

God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls.

I believe there's a time when the
cord of life
Should be cut, my friends (Cut the
cord, my friend)
I believe there's a time when the
cord can be cut
And this vision ends (Let this vision
end).

But I'm gonna die in a place that
don't know my name
And I'm gonna cry in a space that
don't hold my fame.

Walking in the cold
Just keep on flying
There'll be a searchlight
On the mountain high
God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm a lonely soul

I'm gonna die in a place that don't
know my name
I'm gonna die in a place that don't
know my name.

God knows you are lonely souls
Lonely souls
Lonely souls
Lonely souls
I'm a lonely soul.

So long, little chapel
???
Pack up your light
Pack up your light
Say goodbye to the holy water life
Ohhh.....???
???
Ahhh.....

Ballbuster commercial sample :

The name of the game is Ballbuster!
It's a family game, fun for children,
And for adults, it's exciting!
You make strategic offensive and defensive moves
Then try to bust your opponent's balls!
It's as easy as checkers, but exacting like pool!
You're a ballbuster!
Ballbuster, a great new game from Mego!

Does it mean I never let you know
Each time I turn inside
When I fully grow I'll outsize you
But I won't let you fall in love
You know it flows over me
And you won't let me drown inside

Sing a nursery rhyme to keep me
quiet
Sing a nursery rhyme to keep me
quiet
Woman please stay close to me,
close to me
Carried through your ecstasy

You can't stop me breathing
Even when you're on fire
Know that you're weaving
With my emotional wires
Flows through me, in through me,
out through me
Over me, feeling me, feeding me
electrically

It's electric ballroom love X7

Do do do do, do do do do
I have to breathe the air you
breathe
I'm inside you
In a room inside a room, I'm inside
you
The colour changes follow your
emotion
I can see when you're feeling desire
I feel him close to you
While I just walk around inside you
Don't let him close to me
Not when you know it's not the one
The one X6 that you love
It's electric ballroom love X7
Keep me quiet

Won't you sing me a nursery rhyme
To keep me quiet while you're on fire
X3
Please just sing me a nursery rhyme
To keep me quiet, while I'm inside
X2
I won't let you fall in love
You know inside, the baby knows
X4
Your baby knows X4
You're on fire, you're on fire
Keep me quiet, keep me angry

UNKLE style
Drums of death that are worth your
while
In the file, I'll dial, I said
Anyone who says we're not versatile
Cause it's me, M-I-K-E to the D
Getting down, U-N-K-L-E
For this you pay a fee
It's not for free
We're coming to the end of the
century
Crossing continental with these
beats
And getting your ass up and out
your seats
The drop-top up with the Flintstone
feats
We're gonna put you down with the
tasty treats
Hand me the mic and I will say
Living positive each and every day
Whether in the fall or the month of
may
Lavelle be getting down with no
delay
Yeah drums of death y'all

Never rest, y'all, yeah

With DJ Shadow and James Lavelle
It starts right now in history
And I am known as the rapper Mike
D.
Funky funky beats, one-two, break

Deliver it on down with the A-1
sound
Ounce by ounce and pound for
pound
Got the shit that's out of bounds
The beat's on time and I hope you
feel
Nice and complete like a happy meal
Sounds of tomorrow. Can't y'all just
steal?
Or is it too hectic for y'all to deal?
Gotta keep moving 'till we hit the top
My boys Unkle gonna let the beat
drop
Grab the mic and I start to mop
Like I done since day one in the
game of hip-hop!
Hip hop....hip hop

-Ordo ob kao, "Order out of chaos", and the idea is that, uh, with the
influence of powerful forces behind the scene, you can bring order out of the
chaos that we see. We know, for instance, that much of the....
-...an eerie order underneath even chaos, as if the finger of God,, in order
and disorder, is always there....
-...I think he has nothing to support this. Y-you're so full of it!
Aliens....Protecting society how? Chaos happens. There's too many people here...

Atlantique :
Gotta learn the way to turn
Hat over eye
Feeling dead more than alive
Give her something to rely on
One more time.

No one hears the sound
Fear is all around
Turn the music loud
No more lullaby.

No way in, no way out
Empty talk and TV shouts
Got to find the way around
No, you ain't no lifer
In this town.

No one hears the sound
Fear is all around
Turn the music loud
No more lullaby.

Stop the beat, hear the sound
Time has come for you to speak
Your mind

Can't you hear the sound?
Chaos all around
Turn the music loud
No more lullaby
Dee-dee-dee X2
Learn to fly

I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Scared of the spotlight
You don't come to visit
I'm stuck on this bed
Thin rubber gloves
She laughs when she's crying
She cries when she's laughing
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your
soul away

I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Christian suburbanite
Washed down the toilet
Money to burn
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your
soul away

Sample from Jacobs Ladder:

'If you're frightened of dying and
then you hold on
You'll see devils tearing your life
away
But, if you've made your peace
Then the devils are really angels
Freeing you from the Earth... from
the Earth'

White worms on the underground
Caught between stations
Butter fingers
I'm losing my patience
I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Christian suburbanite
You got money to burn
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your
soul away... away... away..


. . .


Uh, I feel that this has given me the msot incredible and woonderful thing
that I have ever been given, and also, the worst. It's a mixed bag. Uh, I
have been taken to the, absolutely, to the depths of extreme terror by this.
I've had my whole soul undermined by it, on the one hand. On the other hand,
Uh, in one sense, my experience has been about finding
joy...joy...joy....joy....joy...joy....joy....joy...joy...
