~Lyrics~
You only get a single chance
The rules are very plain,
The truth is well concealed inside
The details of the game,
You can hear it coming,
You can see it from afar,
It's pale and it glimmers
Like a faded movie star
And out there in the castle,
They're trying to make us scream,
By sticking thumb tags in a flash
And cancelling the dream,
Can you find the Valium,
Can you bring them soon,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Baying at the moon
The time has come for you to choose,
You'd better get it right,
Pulling girls with sharp white teeth
Are waiting in the night,
But you want to really get some,
It surely can't be hard,
There's always trouble lurking
When you leave your own backyard
Underneath the city,
The alligators sing,
Of how the fool he cannot dance,
When someone cuts the strings,
Can you find the morphine,
Try to be so brief,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Looking for relief
That laddie looks so evil,
And you know he really tries,
But every time he makes a play,
That battle compromise,
And shall I find their underwear,
From a store where no-one goes,
She makes it big in dugs,
On the strength of what she shows,
And here inside the waiting room,
The radio still screams,
And we're shooting children,
To murder all young things,
Can you find your credit card,
For god's sake make it quick,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Trying to turn a trick
GREW UP LISTENING TO THE GREAT MUSIC HE MADE RIP LEMMY
me to
I love that bass through a Marshall sound, i had a Marshall Major during the mid 70's, played a P bass through it, boom!
One of Lemmy's forgotten pearls. Probably the best track on the "Mountain Grill" album. With a bit more forethought Hawkwind would never have let him go and who knows what might have happened...........
When Lemmy was with Hawkwind they did a pretty amazing version of this song on Hall of the Mountain Grill.
You only get a single chance
The rules are very plain,
The truth is well concealed inside
The details of the game,
You can hear it coming,
You can see it from afar,
It's pale and it flickers
Like a faded moving star
And here inside the castle,
They're trying to make us scream,
By sticking thumb tags in a flash
And cancelling the dream,
Can you find the Valium,
Can you bring them soon,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Baying at the moon
The time has come for you to choose,
You'd better get it right,
Pulling girls with sharp white teeth
Are waiting in the night,
But you want to really get some,
It surely can't be hard,
There's always trouble waiting
When you leave your own backyard
And underneath the city,
The alligators sing,
Of how the fool he cannot dance,
Since someone cuts the strings,
Can you get the morphine,
Try to be so brief,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Looking for relief
That laddie looks so evil,
And you know he really tries,
But every time he makes a play,
That vital number dies,
And Sally buy's heir underwear,
From a store where no-one goes,
She makes it big in photograps,
On the strength of what she shows
And here inside the waiting room,
The radio still screams,
And we're all shooting Tuinal,
To murder our young dreams,
Can you find your credit card,
For god's sake make it quick,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Trying to turn a trick
Nearly but not quite
my first LP ON PAROLE gracias Motorhead por comenzar en mi vida lo que nunca va a terminar. larga vida al rock!!!
R.I.P. Lemmy, we will miss you
Find the MORPHINE make it brief......Lost Jhonnie .... seeking the ultimate relief......
This is one of my favourite Motorhead songs.
Old skool motorhead, better than anything out there
REAL LYRICS :-
You only get a single chance
The rules are very plain,
The truth is well concealed inside
The details of the game,
You can hear it coming,
You can see it from afar,
It's pale and it flickers
Like a faded movie star
And here inside the castle,
They're trying to make us scream,
By sticking thumb tacks in our flesh
And cancelling the dream,
Can you find the Valium,
Can you bring them soon,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Baying at the moon
The time has come for you to choose,
You'd better get it right,
Berlin girls with sharp white teeth
Are waiting in the night,
But you want to really get some,
It surely can't be hard,
There's always trouble lurking
When you leave your own backyard
And underneath the city,
The alligators sing,
Of how the fool he cannot dance,
When someone cuts the strings,
Can you find the morphine,
Try to be so brief,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Looking for relief
Now Larry looks so evil,
And you know he really tries,
But every time he makes a play
That vital number dies,
And Sally buys her underwear
From a store where no-one goes,
She makes it big in photographs
On the strength of what she shows,
And here inside the waiting room,
The radio still screams,
And we're all shooting Tylenol
To murder our young dreams,
Can you find your credit card,
For god's sake make it quick,
Lost Johnny's out there,
Trying to turn a trick.
This is the best I've been able to come up with
I have a repressing of the vinyl but there are no lyrics in there sadly or this would have been easily settled.
Any one who has any amendments is welcome to provide theirs
Motörhead for life!

Uralt geiles Geschepper. Eine meiner ersten LPs...
R.I.P. Lemmy.
Corrections to the lyrics:
"By sticking thumb taCKs in HER flEsh"
"BERLIN girls with sharp white teeth"
"About how the PUPPETS cannot dance"
"NOW SIMON looks so evil"
"That VITAL NUMBER DIES"
"And SALLY BUYS HER underwear"
"She makes it big in PHOTOGRAPHS"
"And we're ALL TAKING TUENOL
To murder OUR young DREAMS
RUN AND FETCH your credit card"
sounds like "were all chewing tuinol " to me,
Lemmy with hawkwind was awsome
R.I.P.
All of these comments about the lyrics (right or wrong) and not one mention of the man that wrote them, Mick Farren.
shooting Tuinals, not shooting children. For the "record".
Yes, it's on "Hall of the Mountain Grill" but Motorhead recorded it early in their career.
Real Motorhead. This is the stuff.
the motorhead hawkwind crossover like the hawkwind version .
R.I.P
Now Simon looks so evil
And you know he really tries
But every time he makes a play
That vital number dies
And Sally buys her underwear
From a store where no-one goes
She makes it big in photographs
On the strength of what she shows
And here inside the waiting room
The radio still screams
And we're all taking Tuenol
To murder our young dreams
Run and fetch your credit card
Try to make it quick
Lost Johnny's out there
Trying to turn a trick.
Slight amendment to lyrics. Hope you don't mind
+ozzymandi Apparently he doesn't read responses.
GRACIAS MOTORHEAD!
We saw Lemmy, Fast Eddie and Filthy Phil playing Lost Johnny and Motorhead at the Glasgow Apollo in '78
I'm pretty sure it was much, much much faster, or maybe that could have been me.I think that was before Ace of Spades had been written.It's a bummer.At the Hawkwind gig in '80 they only played Silver Machine.I think.
It was Hall of the Mountain Grill.
wow... i didn't listen to that since i was 17
Where are the last 15 seconds?
Lots of them are cut off.
@poopypoopskipper Speed IS everything!
arrrrgh...I was using text to speech. I hate correcting someone and making a mistake in doing it. That should have said LEMMY
God
Barbiturate tuinal not tuinol very common mistake. Like secanol also please refer to "the old main drag" the pogues. And there was always lots of tuinal on the old main drag. Disappeared before I could try it but fucks your veins right up
Tuinal is the correct spelling, but it's actually seconal.
"Disappeared before I could try it ".... didn't miss anything, just sends you to sleep. Still, handy if your having a psychosis on speed.
All the nifty drugs are no longer available, Do Do's, Mandy's, Black Bombers, Bluey's, Palfiam, Morphine Sulphate, Diconol. No one does chemists anymore and the security on the drug factory's is too tight. One had a cornucopia of drugs to choose from back then; now it's all cheap crap skag, cheap crap crack which fucks you up worse than smack and the price of smoke has gone up, not down, bummer.
Much better than the Hawkwind version.
what album is this off? I'm trying to get myself into motorhead. cheers.
ЗБС 👍 ЗБС 👍 ЗБС 👍 ЗБС 👍 ЗБС
Hall of the Mountain grill.
great song...the lyrics here are all f'ed up though.
Were all shooting tuinol to murder or young dreams
lost johnny it's a song of Hawkwind ... not?
🎃
It was originally on Hall of the Mountain Grill not Warrior.
Sterling (exceptional as in beyond gorgeous) girls with sharp white teeth are waiting in the night...damn, I know let me can be difficult to translate, but this is one of the worst translations of the song I think I have ever read.
Lyrics wrong
to je hareley bordel starej
lemmy is god or dog!!!!!!!!
Why do you upload incomplete videos? The last 13 seconds are missing! That ruins the whole song; due to this you just better shouldn't have uploaded this track. Several of the tracks of this album you have uploaded miss the last few seconds. That drives me mad!
coitus interruptus... FUUUUUUUUUUUCK
you know lemmys in the hawkwind version to
Well he was their bass player at the time and he wrote it too
my first LP ON PAROLE gracias Motorhead por comenzar en mi vida lo que nunca va a terminar. larga vida al rock!!!
