"Power Player" lyrics
"Power Player"
Diplomatically, emphatically deny
Any prior knowledge shape or kind.
You don't know nothing about a Russian hooker.
Some bloke broke in and straight up took her.
Western European journalists,
Devious little monkeys, they're bloody relentless.
Call the consulate, and burn the evidence,
Don't speak another word, just burn the evidence.
I'm not giving you attitude,
I just want another drink.
I don't care about the altitude,
I just want another drink.
Get your hands off me, you don't know who I am.
I'm a power player, I'm a power player.
Get your hands off me, you don't know who I am.
I'm a power player, I'm a power player.
You can always tell the terrorist
By his cologne and the watch on his wrist.
It says I'm the type of man
That can kick off anywhere, kick off anywhere.
I'm not giving you attitude,
I just want another drink.
I don't care about the altitude,
I just want another drink.
Movers, shakers,
Money makers,
Deal breakers,
And dogs,
In this game you've got to lose a couple of your pawns.
I'm not giving you attitude,
I just want another drink.
I don't care about the altitude,
I just want another drink.
Movers, shakers,
Money makers,
Deal breakers,
And dogs,
In this game you've got to lose a couple of your pawns.
Movers, shakers,
Money makers,
Deal breakers,
And dogs,
In this game you've got to lose a couple of your pawns.

"This is the first song we wrote for the record. The idea for these lyrics came about while we were doing a lot of international flying. We even had the rare luxury of flying first class once [once being the operative word]. It's a whole different scene up there, hot towels and cheese trays. The rock band definitely came across as a booze soaked horde of barbarians. That, coupled with some late night notes taken in the lobby of the Hotel Ukraine in Moscow brought about this tune."

I'm flying, I'm flying, I'm flying, I'm flying, I'm flying, I'm flying, flying away, I'm flying away

The Sword - "Tres Brujas" A strange voice within his mind
From the glowing orb in his hand
Spoke of the properties of certain herbs
Growing wild all across this land
Three witches you shall meet
Along the road to your fate...
Monster Magnet - "Powertrip" Who's gonna teach you how to dance?
Who's gonna show you how to fly?
Who's gonna call you on the lame-dope-smoking,
Slackin' little sucker you are?
Who's gonna get you from behind?
Who's gonna ring...
Helmet - "Unsung" Your contribution left unnoticed some
association with an image
just credit time for showing up again
attention wandered I'm left with it
gone by sin too slowly
can't pass it up
then i thought...
Snot - "Deadfall" Well, I killed my dad
In a con gone bad
Nearly drank myself to death
But when he died, he said Lou had the cake
So I caught a bus headin' west
I saw the numbers running through a small cafe
And I...
