I am in the night
I am every part of it
The consumption of its beast 
The deck that it deals
The veins that bleed
The caress of its serpent

I am the night
As it writhes and undulates toward dawn
It moans and cries a symphony of anger
I am its agony as it struggles against the light
And dies with the strike of the Sun God.

Hot Animal Machine & Some of Do It...
HOT ANIMAL MACHINE

Looking at the bottom, what do I see
I see the bottom staring back at me
You have to part animal part machine
If you take a good look around you'll see what I mean
I won't take, I won't break (x5)
Seeing fear in their eyes
They won't rest easy until the other dies
You have to be part animal part machine
If you take a good look around you'll see what I mean
I won't take, I won't break (x5)
Sitting in a hot prison going insane
I gotta stay un depressed gotta try to maintain
You have to be part animal part machine
Take a good look raound you'll see what I mean
I won't take, I won't break (x5)
Bars on the windows locks on the door
Drugs in the cabinet, drugged to the door
You have to be part animal part machine
If you take a good look around you'll see what I mean
I won't take, I won't break...


MOVE RIGHT IN

Well she's straight and look like a lot of fun
The bar's open I'm gonna go have a drink with everyone
Walking downtown skies can't get any greater
Haven't got no money and I haven't got a prayer
I'm gonna move right in (x3)
After we hang a little we're gonna have a little fun
Gonna go shoot and kill and go knife everyone
The bar looks like haven gonna have myself a drink
Hey man don't you know I fell right in to the swing
I'm Gonna move right in (x3) Yeah
Gonna go uptown so I can get myself straight
Gonna go see my mama see if I got myself a date
Time is runnin' out I'm comin' right down to the wire
Gotta go do something to get myself higher
I'm gonna move right in (x3) Hey


HOT ANIMAL MACHINE II

I ran outside in the colored lights
I saw a scene of freaks dancin' in the streets
Like monkeys swinging from light bulbs
Couldn't find the right words
Couldn't find the wrong words
I just wanted to kick
They looked at me like they never seen something like that in their lives
I wanted to shove it right down their slimy throats
I went right back to my cell and freaked out by myself
And don't you know it feels good to know without a doubt to know
I am what I am all about
Back in my jungle, back in my cell
Ready like a convict man springing to the alien combat life

A man in front of the barrel of a gun
Instructions: remain calm
My dreams they all die
Annihilation, discrimination, incineration
In my dreams they all die
I'm exterminating from the inside
No one hears a scream
No one holds or heeds to my dreams but me
The assassin of my dreams comes to destroy from the inside
The assassin of my dreams exterminates without mercy, without judgement
I am the assassin of my dreams
I am the exterminator of my thoughts
I am the rough that corrodes my will
I am my worst enemy
I am my best friend
I am my end

Remain calm
Prepare to destroy
Part animal part machine

CRAZY LOVER

Well I got money to spend and time to waste
Let's get together baby let's get straight
Cause me and you that's all we two can really have a ball
I'm a crazy lover
And I think you kinda crazy too
Well those ............. and how sweet they are
But baby babe I don't know the score
I'm sweeter than the peaches that come in the can
I'm even super than a superman
Cause I'm a crazy lover
And I think you kinda crazy too
Well I'm hotter than sun I don't fall for too much
I'm a sweet talker mama make you wanna cry
Like dynamite ............................
Just a kiss from your mother I'm liable to explode
Cause I'm a crazy lover
And I think you kinda crazy too
Well I'm dressed to kill, baby don't you know
I got guns and drug and a whole lotta dope
I want you with me everywhere I go
Well listen to me mama cuz I'm telling you so
I'm a crazy lover
And I think you're crazy too


A MAN AND A WOMAN

A man and a woman locked in a hot apartment prison
They're in love, love
He's beatin' that woman's head against the fridgerator door
Slammin' that woman's head against the fridgerator door
They're in love, they're in love, they're in love
He's beatin' that woman to an inch of her life
Beatin' that woman to an inch of her life
Beatin' that woman to an inch of her life
The heed and the hate, the heed and the hate, the heed and the hate
The heed and the hate make the windows sweat, make the windows sweat
Makes the walls moan, moan, moan, moan
Now outside in the hallway al the neighbors
From all the other apartment building rooms have gathered in the hallway
And they're all out there armed with their baseball bats and brooms
Listening to the man beat the woman to an inch of her life
Now all the wise guys are in the back takin' bets
The one man says,
"I say, he's gonna kill her, my money's down that says he's gonna kill her."
And the other man says,
"He's not gonna kill her, he's gonna beat that woman to an inch of her life,
beat that woman to an inch of her life, beat that woman to an inch of her
life, beat that woman to an inch of her life. That's where my money is, so
put your money down, put your money down, put your money down."
A little while later the cops come
And they come up the stairs
And they see all the people gathered in the hallways
With their baseball bats and brooms
See the wise guys in the back throwin' 5 dollar bills back and forth
And they say,
"Alright, which room is it?"
And a few of the people point to the room at the end of the hall
The cops go over there and they kick the door in
And they see the man beatin' on the woman, slammin' her head up against the
wall, beatin' that woman to an inch of her life.
And they say,
"Hey man, why you beatin' that woman to an inch of her life, why you beatin'
that woman to an inch of her life, why you beatin' that woman to an inch of
her life?"
And, the man says, get this, the man says...,
"That's no woman that's my wife,
That's no woman that's my wife,
That's no woman that's my wife,
And when she screams she turns on all the apartment lights on."


NEXT TIME

I saw this cat leave my pad
And this made me awful sad
But in the mean time I was gettin' mad
And I said,"Baby what explanation do you have?"
She said, "Mmmmmmm, Next Time"
What do you mean Next Time?
No next time baby, that ws the last time
I got my hat and headed for the door
I knew I wouldn't be back there no more
And the landlord came up a real cool jed he said,
"Hey buddy, how bout the rent?"
I said, "Mmmmmmmm, Next Time"
What do you mean Next Time?
He said no next time, you gonna pay me right now
Now after the confusion had all died down
I figured I'd better get outta town
But when I arrived at the airport
There stood a man with a notice sayin'
Bail ya to support
I said, "Mmmmmmm, Next Time"
What do you mean Next Time?
He said no, next time, you comin' home right now
They took me to see an old friend of mine
Yeah district court, room 229
Just say your payments are way behind
I said, "Don't worry daddy, it won't happen next time."
And he said, "Mmmmmmmm, Next Time."
What do you mean Next Time?
Ain't gonna be no next time, cuz you goin' to jail right now."
