Mark Mothersbaugh

Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like rock 'n' roll
I move like a cat, charge like a ram
Sting like a bee, babe, I wanna be your man
Well, it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your boy, your 20th century toy

Friends say it's fine, my friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like rock 'n' roll
Fly like a plane, drive like a car
Ball like a hound, babe, I wanna be your man - oh
Well, it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your toy, your 20th century boy

20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy

Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like rock 'n' roll
Move like a cat, charge like a ram
Sting like a bee, babe, I wanna be your man
Well it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your toy, your 20th century boy

20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy

Every cheap hood strikes a bargain with the world
And ends up making payments on a sofa or a girl
Love 'n' hate tattooed across the knuckles of his hands
The hands that slap his kids around 'cause they don't understand

How death or glory becomes just another story
How death or glory becomes just another story
'N' every gimmick hungry yob digging gold from rock 'n' roll
Grabs the mike to tell us he'll die before he's sold
But I believe in this, and it's been tested by research
That he who fucks nuns will later join the church

From every dingy basement on every dingy street
I hear every dragging handclap over every dragging beat
That's just the beat of time, the beat that must go on
If you been trying for years, then we already heard your song

Alright, now listen here now for the last time
You don't care for me
I don't car about that
Gotta new fool ha
I like it like that

I have only one itchin' desire
Let me stand next to your fire
Let me stand next to your fire
Hey
Let me stand
Hey
Let me stand next to your fire

Oh listine here baby
And stop acting so crazy
You say your mum ain't home
It ain't my concern
Just play with me and you won't get burned

I have only one itching desire
Let me stand next to your fire
Yeah, let me stand baby
Let me stand next to your fire
Oh, let my stand
Let me stand next to your fire
Let me stand next to your fire
Let me stand next to your fire

Oh move over
Let jimi take over
Yeah you know what I'm talking 'bout baby

Yeah!

You try to gimmie your money
You better save it babe
Save it for your rainy day

I have only one a itchin' desire
Let me stand next to your fire
Oh, let me stand

Jimi:
Yeah, thank you very much. I'd like to do this song dedicated
To maybe a soldier in the army. singin' about his old lady that
He dreams about and humpin' a machine gun instead or it could be
Could be a cat maybe tryin' to fall in love with that girl baby,
But a little bit too scared. that's where the problems come from
Sometimes isn't it? I meen the cat is really insecure a little bit
So the call girls groupies and they call girls this. and they call
Passive people hippies and bla bla, woof, woof, all down the line
That's because their not in love man that's what's happening. that's
The other half of a man, is woman. and we'd like to play a thing called
Izabella, and don't you ever forget it.

I don't wanna know your name
Cause you don't look the same
The way you did before
OK you think you got a pretty face
But the rest of you is out of place
You looked all right before

Fox on the run
You screamed and everybody comes a-running
Take a run and hide yourself away
Fox on the run
F-foxy, foxy on the run and hideaway

You-you talk about just every band
But the names you drop are second hand
I've heard it all before
I don't wanna know your name
Cause you don't look the same
The way you did before
(repeat chorus)

Heart breaker soul shaker
I've been told about you
Steamroller midnight shoulder
What they been saying' must be true

Red hot mama
Velvet charmer
Time's come to pay your dues

[Chorus]
Now you're messin' with a
Son of a bitch
Now your messin' with a
Son of a bitch
Now your messin' with a
Son of a bitch
Now your messin' with a
Son of a bitch

Talking jiving poison ivy
You ain't gonna cling to me
Man taker bone faker
I ain't so blind I can't see

Red hot mama
Down light charmer
Time's come to pay your dues

[Chorus:Repeat x4]

I Don't Want You, Cook My Bread
I Don't Want You, Make My Bed
I Don't Want Your Money Too
I Just Wanna Make Love To You

I Don't Want You, Be No Slave
I Don't Want You, Work All Day
I Don't Want You To Be Sad And Blue
I Just Wanna Make Love To You

I Can Tell By The Way
That You Baby Talk
I Can See By The Way
That You Switch And Walk
I Can Tell By The Way
That You Treat Your Man
But I Could Love You Baby
It's A Cryin' Shame

I Don't Want You, Wash My Clothes
I Don't Want You, Keep A Home
I Don't Want You To Be True
I Just Wanna Make Love To You

I Don't Want You, Be No Slave
I Don't Want You, Work All Day
I Don't Want You To Be True
I Just Wanna Make Love To You

I Don't Want You, Keep A Home
I Don't Want You, Wash My Clothes
I Don't Want You To Be True
I Just Wanna Make Love -

Iron Man

Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all,
Or if he moves will he fall?
Is he alive or dead?
Has he thoughts within his head
We'll just pass him there
Why should we even care

He was turned to steel
In the great magnetic field
Where he traveled time
For the future of mankind

Nobody wants him
He just stares at the world
Planning his vengeance
That he will soon unfold

Now the time is here
For Iron Man to spread fear
Vengeance from the grave
Kills the people he once saved

Nobody wants him
They just turn their heads
Nobody helps him
Now he has his revenge

Heavy boots of lead
Fills his victims full of dread
Running as fast as they can
Iron Man lives again!

Wake up Maggie I think I got something to say to you
It's late September and I really should be back at school
I know I keep you amused but I feel I'm being used
Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more
You lured me away from home just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that's what really hurt

The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age
But that don't worry me none in my eyes you're everything
I laughed at all of your jokes my love you didn't need to coax
Oh, Maggie I couldn't have tried any more
You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul and that's a pain I can do without

All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
But you turned into a lover and
mother what a lover, you wore me out
All you did was wreck my bed
and in the morning kick me in the head
Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried anymore
You lured me away from home 'cause you didn't want to be alone
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried

I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school
Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helpin' hand
Oh Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face
You made a first-class fool out of me
But I'm as blind as a fool can be
You stole my heart but I love you anyway

Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face
I'll get on back home one of these days,

Woh, welcome to my town
High energy is all around tonight
Woh, you best beware
There's vi'lence in the air tonight. Huh.
Well, Detroit city, she's the place to be
This mad dog town's gonna set you free

Oh, when do we mount the stage?
Gonna cause a mad dog rage
Ha ha ha ha ha
Woh, when you see my name
Gonna set this town a flame
That's right
Well, Detroit city's just the place to be
Murder town's gonna set you free tonight
Oh, no, ow!

Woh, those fortified motor cars,
High energy, and it's all ours
Ha ha ha ha ha
Dig this
Woh, such a heavy place for the boys and girls,
It's the murder capital of the world
Yeow!
Well, Detroit city, she's the place to be,


Mad dog town gonna set you free

Ain't but one way out baby, Lord I just can't go out the door.
Ain't but one way out baby, and Lord I just can't go out the door.
Cause there's a man down there, might be your man I don't know.

Lord you got me trapped woman, up on the second floor;
If I get by this time I won't be trapped no more.
So raise our window baby, I can ease out soft and slow.
And lord, your neighbors, no they won't be
Talking that stuff that they don't know.

Lord, I'm foolish to be here in the first place,
I know some man gonna walk in and take my place.
Ain't no way in the world, I'm going out that front door
Cause there's a man down there, might be your man I don't know.
Cause there's a man down there, might be your man I don't know.
Cause there's a man down there,

Freely
Lord, it just might happen to be your man...
Lord, it just a might be your man,
Oh baby, I just don't know...

Turn to Stone

Hey now the well run dry
Pages of the book on fire
Read the writing ...on the wall...

Hoedown, say showdown
Everywhere you look
they're fighting...Hear the call...

And you know its getting stronger,
It can't last very much longer
Turn to stone

(Break/Short Solo 1)

Well there's a change in the wind
You know the signs don't lie
Such a strange feeling and I don't know why
Its takin'... such a long time ...

Backyard people and they work all day
Tired of the speeches
And the way the reasons they keep changin'...
Just to make the Words Rhyme...

And you know its getting stronger,
Can't fake 'em out much longer
Turn to stone

(Solo 2)

And you know its getting stronger,
It can't last very much longer
Turn to stone

(Quiet Break)

(Break/Solo 3 to end)

Christmas time is here
happiness and cheer
fun for all that children
call their favorite time of year.

Snowflakes in the air
carols everywhere
olden times and ancient rhymes
and love and dreams to share.

*Sleigh bells in the air
beauty every where
yuletide by the fireside
and joyful memories there.
Christmas time is here
we'll be drawing near
oh that we could always see
such spirit through the year.

* Repeat

Now that it's time
Now that the hour hand has landed at the end
Now that it's real
Now that the dreams have given all they had to lend
I want to know do I stay or do I go
And maybe try another time
And do I really have a hand in my forgetting ?

Now that I've tried
Now that I've finally found that this is not the way,
Now that I turn
Now that I feel it's time to spend the night away
I want to know do I stay or do I go
And maybe finally split the rhyme
And do I really understand the undernetting ?

Yes and the morning has me
Looking in your eyes
And seeing mine warning me
To read the signs carefully.

Now that it's light
Now that the candle's falling smaller in my mind
Now that it's here
Now that I'm almost not so very far behind
I want to know do I stay or do I go
And maybe follow another sign
And do I really have a song that I can ride on ?

Now that I can
Now that it's easy, ever easy all around.
Now that I'm here
Now that I'm falling to the sunlights and a song
I want to know do I stay or do I go
And do I have to do just one
And can I choose again if I should lose the reason ?

Yes, and the morning
Has me looking in your eyes
And seeing mine warning me
To read the signs more carefully.

Now that I smile,
Now that I'm laughing even deeper inside.
Now that I see,
Now that I finally found the one thing I denied
It's now I know do I stay or do I go
And it is finally I decide
That I'll be leaving
In the fairest of the seasons.

Please give me a second grace. Please give me a second face.
I've fallen far down, the first time around, now I just sit on the ground in your way.

Now if it's time to recompense for what's done, come, come sit down on the fence in the sun.
And the clouds will roll by and we'll never deny- it's really too hard for to fly.

Please tell me your second name. Please play me your second game.
I've fallen so far for the people you are, I just need your star for a day.

So come, come ride in my streetcar by the bay
for now I must know how fine you are in your way.
And the sea sure as I, but she won't need to cry for it's really too hard for to fly.
