Motörhead - Motörhead

Song: Motörhead
Band: Motörhead
Album: On Parole
Year: 1975 (But Released 1979)



Sunrise, wrong side of another day,
Sky high and six thousand miles away,
Don't know how long I've been awake,
Wound up in an amazing state,
Can't get enough,
And you know it's righteous stuff,
Goes up like prices at Christmas,
Motorhead, you can call me Motorhead, alright

Brain dead, total amnesia,
Get some mental anasthesia,
Don't move, I'll shut the door and kill the lights,
And if I can't be wrong I could be right,
All good clean fun,
Have another stick of gum,
Man, you look better already,
Motorhead, remember me now Motorhead, alright

Fourth day, five day marathon,
We're moving like a parallelogram,
Don't move, I'll shut the door and kill the lights,
I guess I'll see you all on the ice,
I should be tired,
And all I am is wired,
Ain't felt this good for an hour,
Motorhead, remember me now, Motorhead alright

definition of Lemmy: only person to use parallelogram in a song and make it sound cool

[OrpheusIsThe1]

@thewizzaofoz At last someone who realises this is rock and roll NOT bloody heavy metal or thrash or any other such misnomer. Lemmy himself is always saying that they are a rock n roll band even at the gigs i have been to he says Mickey Dee is the best rock n roll drummer in the world.

MOTORHEAD IS NOT PUNK NOT METAL, MOTORHEAD IS PURE,

STRAIGHFOWARD,

FAST & BRUTAL ROCK'N'ROLL

Lemmy has being saying for decades : WE ARE MOTORHEAD and WE PLAY ROCK'N'ROLL!

@ofwgguy

Well, Lemmy did say Motorhead sounds more like the Damned that Judas Priest. Plus he was good friends with the Ramones.

@Deepred67 It saddens me that you dont like the Brock version better. I cant see why you like the inferior version of the song!

[Deepred67]

@brieflycake I know that tune brother,I'm a hard core biker and lemmy's version speaks to me much more.It's a tune I've loved for 30+ years.

[brieflycake]

@Deepred67 Why not? Why would you volunteer to be wrong? Thats just silly. Anyway, its my mistake, the version i like best is sung by Dave Brock, of Hawkwind, not Lemmy. It was a remix. Here is a link to it, see if you like it better: /watch?v=p6OuyJKnIyU

@brieflycake Don't agree.
