The Weird Lovemakers "Must Die" Lyrics


1) TAKE ME UP
Take me up, take me. Take me up to your room right now. I'm a softboy and I can't do any harm. Shake me down, shake me. Tell me something very funny right now. I'm a downer on downers, and I need to wake up. Just let me lie down for a short while. And, when it’s over, I'll take you higher. We'll walk into the neon lights, Mamacita, you're such a sight. I’d like to see you every night, yeah, yeah! I passed out, I passed out, I passed out in a stranger's room. But, I knew her from before, I'm pretty sure. I fell in, I fell in, I fell in to a rocket tomb, but I knew I'd found the answer and the cure. I'm gonna fuel up, gonna rev up. Ready to take off, come on, take me up. I'm gonna blast out of the grave, stick my rocket in your socket, yeah. I'm gonna love you every day, yeah, yeah, yeah! Take me up, take up, take me up. (Music: Willis · Words: Jaime)


2) ME #1
I wrote a lot of songs about how fate’s a bastard, now I got him beaten down. Though it’s a bad world for the ugly, life has gotten good, I got nothing to complain about. I’m feeling all right, things are all right. Now I’m a pastor of disaster, holy sacrament washed down with soda and pop rocks. Every Ass Wednesday, all the faithful’s foreheads get a brown smear from my stinking chamberpot. I’m feeling all right, my life is so right. I got my Mother Box a-pinging, M-Vest humming sultry, chewing speed like it was cud. I heard that I’ve just been elected lifetime president of the Baby-Sitter Fuckers Club. I’m feeling all right, things are all right. (Petix)


3) JECKYLL AND HYDE BRAND LIQUOR
I'm feeling kind of empty. Try some Jeckyll and Hyde Brand Liquor. Yeah, the change will do me good for a while. Go out and join the slut carnival. Then, I wake up, and I'm feeling really sad. 'Cause I want a girlfriend really bad. I try to stay sober, but spider eggs are hatching in my nerves. My Jeckyll and Hyde Brand Bourbon makes me calm and loose, I'm ready to flirt. But, all these girls they’re all the same to me. And, I wanna be hanging from a tree. Yeah, from a tree. I don't know why I let myself be fooled. I've been using, and now I’m being used. I don't wanna be the other man. I don't like feeling second hand, yeah, second hand. (Jaime)


4) A LITTLE BIT OF HELL
I checked out your face, I found out your name, you gave up your number. I wrote it on my wall, but lost the nerve to call. Before I got it up, my mother washed it off, Miss Felix Unger. You checked out my face, you said, "What’s your name?" You asked for my number. On you I spent it all, my paycheck from the mall. Got roses, wine, and pills, no money left for bills -- they turned my phone off. I rehooked up my phone, I wait all alone, I kicked out my mother -- a little bit of Hell. You gotta call me! (Petix)

5) BLOODY DOUBLE
As he vows to blow his brains out, our hero splits in two. One half is the radio, and the other half is you. Voice from the speaker screams, "Are you near me?!" Shortwave, static dreams. Sounds like you’re in trouble 'cause now you've got a double. Mother says, "Don't worry baby, you've got a certain knack for going against odds and numbers 'cause you can see through the cracks." But, all the holes are plugged. Am I near you?! Nowhere to escape. Sounds like you're in trouble 'cause now you've got a double. Once we've got our shit together, the candyman stops by. We're having such lovely weather, that means we've gotta get high. Now that we can be friends, I am near you. Friends until the end. Let's get into trouble 'cause we're each other's doubles. (Music: Willis · Words: Jaime)


6) WAITING FOR THE ACTION
If you want some trouble, I can help you find it. Look around the corner: Big Gulp in her hand and lots of traction up and down her arms. Dynamite lover, scumbag undercover, ain't got no reason to be looking for another piece of action to throw into his car. She will never get aroused, oh yeah, and you're always down and out because you're living for the action, hiding from the sun. Dad is in jail, Mom is snorting rails, Grandma is neurotic, Grandpa is still waiting for the action, hiding from the sun. God has disappeared, summer is here. The heat is everywhere, and I can't get a beer. I need some action, but I can't get none. You may never be around, but you can never get me down, because I'm living for the action, living for the sun. Living for the fun. (Jaime)


7) MY NEUTRON BOMB
When I go outside, I never feel right. Too many people; wanna make them all die, victims of my neutron bomb. I want them gone. A neutron bomb…I want one. I want the know-how to make a bad cloud. A poison mushroom, sporulating fallout. All thanks to my neutron bomb. I want you gone. A neutron bomb...I want one. I want a neutron. (Petix)


8) PILLS
Oh, I can't wait to get out of this state. I'm feeling miserable, I'm feeling irrate. I need a pill, and I want it right now. I'm gonna go out and get some atomb bombs; I'm gonna get some pills. Atomb bomb exploding in my head. Oh, can I please have another pill? Oh, I can't wait to get out of this state. I'm feeling miserable, I'm feeling irrate. My patience is thinner than a paper plate. I gotta go out and get some atomb bombs; I think I need some pills. Atomb bomb exploding in my head. Oh, can I please have another pill? Please let me have another pill. Oh, I can't wait to get out of this state. I'm feeling miserable, I'm feeling irrate. Patience is thinner than a paper plate. I wanna kill myself, I need a pill! Atomb bomb, I wanna get some pills. Oh my god, I think I'm gonna be ill. Can I please have another pill? (Music: Willis · Words: Jaime)


9) PRIVATE APOCALYPSE
On that dark night I remembered that the next day the whole world was going to crash and burn. I read about it in the books that my Uncle left me when he got offed by his cows. I didn't tell no one, so I could have some fun without all the Christian media frenzy that I knew would surely ruin all of my last days. First thing, I took my Daddy's car and then I drove out of the sticks, straight into the city. Then I found a pretty junky whore; we copped and fucked and went uptown to catch a movie. The best time of my life spent watching "Ridgemont High". I forgot about all of the time I wasted pent-up and annoyed inside of someone else's shell. Too bad the cops came by, and ruined my good time. Now, I'm stuck inside the cell, the alien rays are closing in, and soon everything I know will be gone. (Jaime)


10) HOG HEAVEN
In my hog heaven, I’m fucking God. Synapse farmer, like a pig rolling ‘round in his dirty slop. In my own mind, I’m chasing tail with J.F.K. In my down time, I make the Hulk do what I say. Flipper baby steps up to bat, sewer princess sends me haiku porn via homing rat. In my own mind, beatnic Aztecs win the day. Most of the time, Roadrunner doesn’t get away. I fiddle just like Nero, I bow. I dwell on all things sexual, I grow. I give myself fellatio, I blow. I don’t like things their way -- I’ll go away. I hear the banthas call, snipe hunting with RuPaul, build swimming pools in Hell, saw legs off timetables... and all the people look at me and say, "He’s such a retard." Fuck them, I can’t stand them anyway. (Petix)


11) I WANNA LIVE IN THE CITY
I'm sick and tired of living in the suburbs, I wanna move to the city this summer. There's only one prob: there really isn't much left of it now, and I'm beginning to wonder if it was, was it all a myth from a misplaced youth? I wanna live in the city this summer. How can I get to the city this summer? I've got a car, but I can't drive it. The tires are splitting, and the belts are buzzing off. I've heard a lot of things about the city. It's really cool and the girls are really pretty. There's only one problem…(Music: Schumacher · Words: Jaime)


12) TIRED OF THE WAY THAT I FEEL
Tired of going out. Tired of being left out. Tired of looking dumb. Tired of relying on dumb luck. And, most of all I'm getting really fucking sick and tired of the way that I feel! Under the city streets. Down through the pipes and tunnels. Past neolithic times. I have been everywhere tonight, and I can't escape. I know that it is my fate. The blind girl is waiting for me to make me feel those things, but it's love that I cannot feel. (Jaime)


13) I DON’T WANT YOU TO STAY
Eating Jesus, every single day, at St. Jerome’s, every fucking day. I don’t believe them, I eat it anyway. I choke it down, but they don’t know. I don’t like how you pray. I don’t want you to stay. Penetration, they do it everyday. I beg them not to, they do it anyway. I told my best friend, he said that I was gay. I tear out my mind. I don’t like how you prey. I don’t want you to stay. My Uncle Howard would touch me every day, just like you damn priests, touch me every way. I went to my Uncle’s and took his gun away. You fucked me up, you’re gonna die. Get on your knees and pray. I don’t want you to stay. I shot Jesus today. I don’t want you to stay. (Petix)


14) YOUNG & LOOSE
Young and loose, dumb and sexy, juicy to the core. Pout your lips, stick your hips out, it's worked before. The sky's always blue even though you're always doing the worst you can do. Sexy, young stud. Young and dumb, lazy, stoned and broke. Pick him up for a ride and offer him some coke. The sky's always blue even though you're always doing the worst you can do. Do your kids know? Live fast, live easy, live young and loose. Live fast, live forever, you're an aging whore. The sky's always blue even though you're always doing the worst you can do. Do your kids know that you're young and loose? (Music: Willis · Words: Jaime)


15) JAILBAIT’S JOURNAL
All those akward situations, I remember them all. With the girl smoking around the corner; will she be my fall? She is 23. She's the one for me. She's got purple hair. She is older than me, but who cares? 'Cause I'm sweet sixteen, yeah, I'm young and mean. That's right, I'm rabid! Oh, I love those thighs; oh please don't cover them up. All those girls I go to school with, I don't like them at all. They can have all the older boys who eye them at the mall. But, I'm not a girl, I'm a male twerp and I cannot talk when I see that sexy walk. And, I've heard that girls who are 23 know how to do it. Be the one for me, let me cover you up. I know I'm jailbait, but I just can't wait to see what it's like to be number one in a woman's arms with my worldly charm. (Jaime)


16) DEMON-OCTOPUS
If I were a girl, I would rule the entire world. But, if I was a woman, I'd be stuck in the kitchen. If I was a boy, I would search and destroy. But, if I were a man, I'd be stuck in the office. I'm not a human being, no! I'm a demon-octopus! Gonna spread my tentacles across this city. Kill all the mens and kiss all the pretties. Yeah, I'm in control. I'm in control! Breaking down walls, yeah, I'm breaking down walls! I'm not a humanoid, no! I'm a demon-octopus! If I was a bumblebee, I'd hang out in flowers. If I were a ladybug, I'd crawl up ladies' arms. If I were a friendly dog, my friends would take me fishing. If I was a scaredy cat, I would be hypnotized by yarn! (Jaime)


17) DESTROY YOUR FUTURE, BABY
Something's coming over you. Something that's been pent up forever. Now, there's nothing you can do. Maybe you can quit your career. You've been planning ahead for too long, you wanna destroy your future now. Throw out your appointment books. Dump out all your files and records. Except for the ones pressed in black. Maybe you can quit yourself. You've been planning ahead for too long. You wanna destroy your future now! Everything you've learned just sounds so wrong, you wanna feel good right now! Yeah!! (Music: Willis · Words: Jaime)

18) NADA NUNCO
All those bands on the radio,I don’t even know their names. All those fucks on the radio grate my nerves like cheese everyday. I’ll never get away, not now, no way. Bad, bad crap on the radio, I have to hear it at the Safeway. If I could love it like a frat boy, I’d hear my music everyday. I’ll never get away, not now, no way. I wish I could like football games. I just wanna be the same. (Petix)

19) L.A.
Moved away to L.A. to become a novelist. Broken down by the lights, I laid it all to rest. Found myself a crowd and started to get drunk. I could be anyone, and the world stopped spinning round and round. I came back to my home; echos rang along the walls. Bounced across yellow skies; troubled eyes crawled up my skin. I wish I could I find someone here still alive. I can't touch anyone, and the world starts spinning round and round. Everywhere I move, I end up feeling stuck. I can't love anyone, and the world starts spinning round and round. (Jaime)

20) TYPEWRITER ADDICT
I'm addicted to the typewriter now, even though I don't have much to say. Maybe 'cause I dropped out of graduate school to become a secretary. Well, I waste my time, yeah, I bide my time, and I work 40 hours a week. I look at myself, yeah, I look at my life, and I say my future’s bleak. To be continued maybe on a Friday night. I'd like to speak my final words through this machine. I'm writing love notes to a girl so far away, I'd like to call her up, but then my knees get weak. Down and out with a stereo heart and a Sterling, black machine. Down and out with a burning lung and a crush on Maybelline. Oh!! (Jaime)

21) OVERACHIEVER
I can be an overachiever. Or, I can spend my time smoking reefer. I can do anything that I wanna… if the pressure ain't on, I can do what I want, I can get what I want if the pressure ain't on. I can throw myself through a window. I can draw myself outta the ghetto. I can do anything that I feel like… if the pressure ain't on, I can get what I want. I can get what I want when the pressure ain't on. You can free yourself from all the blame, but you gotta remember: I can always make good if the pressure ain't on. "But it's always on" - - Red C. "Always!" - -Iggy Pop. (Jaime)

22) NIGHT OF THE JACKASS
Moving fast, thinking slow. (Jaime/Petix)

23) PAPER CUTS
On the 4th of December 1964, I started working for a government office. And, they said, "Don't you think that the government stinks, 'cause it'll all go in your File 13." On the 9th of December 1968, I went to work for a non-profit. Everbody was cool, except the paranoid fool who thought I was always right behind him. I'm not the one that they want me to be. And, I can't believe that it matters to me. Office gossip and bongs, I never really get what I want. Then, once that I've found my place, I guess it's not for me. (Weird Lovemakers)
