fragmenty tekstu piosenki:
"Beats On My Head"
The music's too loud,
It just beats, beats, beats,
on my head.
(...)
You've got to turn it down,
it just beats, beats, beats.
It's going up and you're going out
(...)
Bitch you'd better shut your mouth
Or we're gonna burn down your home
You can't stop the music we're lovin',
We'll kick your ass and put your dog in the oven
(...)
Chris Weber: On stage we used to play this song called 'Beat On My Head' about their landlady. She used to yell at us for playing too loud. So we wrote the following... 'The music's too loud, it just beats, beats, beats, on my head.' Axl would sing what she was saying and the second part was a real blues thing, and we'd speed it up real fast and he'd sing it to her. The first part would be something like, 'You've got to turn it down, it just beats, beats, beats. It's going up and you're going out.' And in the second part he's singing, 'Bitch you'd better shut your mouth or we're gonna burn down your home.' Then he continues, 'You can't stop the music we're lovin', we'll kick your ass and put your dog in the oven.'

Pełne teksty piosenek Hollywood Rose:
"ANYTHING GOES" [My Way, Your Way]
Not my time on the bottom line
What story there is to tell
Reach out to someone, killed by another
Cold nightmare and hell
Rascals known like a social disease
Really knows she can do what you please
I can't find my real debris
But I've gotta work it out
There's a woman in town
She's been around
She seems to be unreal
Knows the name, knows the game
Knows how to make you feel
Moves like a trap that's on the ground
Bludgeoned with the pain whether you scream or howl
I just gotta work it out
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes
You want yours
You know I want mine
Work it out or draw the line
Got no time to take it to the case
We don't care, our candy's late
You call your shots and I'll call mine
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes
My way. your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes tonight
My way, your way
Anything goes
" KILLING TIME"
I'm livin' every moment
Like its my last
You could say I push too hard
But I like it fast
There ain't nothing
On what you can depend
What you call your highway
Could be your dead-end
Luck ain't got the time
To be your friend or mine
I'm doin' nothing
I'm killing time
Don't get me wrong
Don't wanna bring you down
Take or give it as it comes
Don't waste your life now hangin' around
Sometimes when you're on your own
You look around and find yourself all alone
Luck ain't got the time
To be your friend or mine
I make my living
Killing time
Running late killing time
We're doing over, overtime
Spend your life on borrowed dime
I make my living killing time
Say you're depressed
You've been resist
Shake it, now don't you fake it
You're the one who wants to make it
Don't fake on anything
Cuz it's in your hands
Stand up every time you fall
You gotta show the world you're feelin' down
Luck ain't got the time
To be your friend or mine
I make my living
Killing time
Running late killing time
We're doing over, overtime
Spend your life on borrowed dime
I make my living killing time
I'm killing time

"RECKLESS LIFE" [Wreckless Life]
I'm reckless and feelin' no pain
You know I've got no need to control
Livin' with the danger I'm always on the edge now
With million dollar visions that I hold
Livin' like this never ever tore my life a fart
I know how to maintain and you know know my part
When the morning comes I'm feelin' distracted
I'm gettin' no rest and I can't sleep at night
My body's on a verge of a total wreck now
But Kamikazes ice keep me alive
Livin' like this never ever tore my life apart
I know how to maintain cuz its comin' from my heart
I lead a reckless life
And I don't need your advice
I lead a reckless reckless life
And you know its my only vice
On a holiday, a permanent vacation
I'm livin' on a cigarette with wine
I'm never alone cuz I got myself
Yes I imitate myself all of the time
Livin' like this never ever tore my life apart
I know how to maintain cuz its comin' from my heart
I lead a reckless life
And I don't need your advice
I lead a reckless life
And you know its my only vice
Reckless life
I lead a reckless reckless life
I lead a reckless life
And I don't need your advice
Reckless life
I lead a reckless life
I lead a reckless life
And you know its my only vice
"SHADOW OF YOUR LOVE"
Took my chances carelessly
I should a choked on my own cigarette
You can hand me another bottle of whiskey baby
But you haven't seen the worst yet
Now I'm reckless, gonna have some fun
And the woman who's dead
It was all all right
No I'm not the only one
Well I'm not standing
No I'm not standing
In the shadow of your love
Shadow of your love, no no no
Shadow of your love, never again
In the shadow of your love
Oh no
Scoreboard changes helplessly
I said "Yeah, but I got no regrets"
Money, it was on the table
So I booked with all the bets
Living like a lemon ain' t so hot
And you ain' t my idea of a rollin' shot
So I'm not standing
No I ain't standing
In the shadow of your love
Shadow of your love, no no no
In the shadow of your love, never again
In the shadow of your love
Oh no
Dark low clouds hanging over your head
Hope you've heard baby all I said
You've been told, all rhythm is read
There's no use crying, you're as good as dead
Now I'm reckless, gonna have some fun
And the woman who's dead
It was all all right
No I'm not the only one
And I'm not standing
No I ain't standing
In the shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love, no no no
Shadow of your love, never again
In the shadow of your love
You won't find me in the shadow of your love, no no no
In the shadow of your love
Shadow shadow shadow of your love
Oh no

"Rock N' Roll"
It's been a long time since I rock and rolled
It's been a long time since I did the stroll
Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back
Let me get it back, baby, where I come from
It's been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Yes it has
It's been a long time since the book of love
I can't count the tears of a life with no love
Carry me back, carry me back Carry me back, baby, where I come from
It's been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight
Making vows that just can't work right
Open your arms, opens your arms
Open your arms, baby, let my love come running in
It's been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time

On the road for forty days
Last night in Little Rock put me in a haze
Sweet, sweet Connie - doin' her act
She had the whole show and that's a natural fact
Up all night with Freddy King
I got to tell you poker's his thing
A-booze 'n ladies keep me right
As long as we can make it to the show tonight
We're an American band
We're an American band
We're coming to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American band
Four young chaquitas in Omaha
Was waitin' for the band to return from the show
Feelin' good, feelin' right, it's Saturday night
The hotel detective -- he was out-a-sight
Now, these fine ladies, they had a plan
They was out to meet the boys in the band
They said, "Come on, dudes, let's get it on"
And we proceeded to tear that hotel down
We're an American band
We're an American band
We're coming to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American band
We're an American band
We're an American band
We're coming to your town

Jakość jest nienajlepsza. No ale jest. Grany w 1984 roku na: "Live at the Cathouse March 84"
Tekst YOUR LOOKS ARE GONE (niekompletny):
Girl I could die
When you talk about me
With that look in your eye
But one day your looks
Will be gone
Time’ll do its ravage
No need to wonder why
Cause its kinda half funny
Gotta drive that car
Gotta spend that money
Before you lose it all
Girl what will you do
Sing me a song about anything
What mans gonna love you
With that half-way smile (?)
And your tired eyes (?)
Bet you won’t get far
Ya think you’ll be a star
Oh what will you do
With your love life
After your through
Better keep your face that way
Doesn’t matter what we say
Hope you’ve got that money saved
While you look in the mirror woman
And see
When your looks are gone
Where you gonna run to
When your looks are gone
Who’s gonna look at you
(Guitar Solo)
Girl I could die
When you talk about me
With that look in your eye
one day your looks
Will be gone
Time’ll do its ravage
No need to wonder why
Bet you won’t get far
Ya think you’ll be a star
what will you do
With your love life
After your through
Better keep your face that way
Doesn’t matter what we say
Hope you’ve got that money
Now what ya got goin’ for you
When you looks are gone
