1.I Can't Get No Satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get me no satisfaction
And i try and i try and i try t-t-t-t-try try
I can't get no i can't get me no
When i'm riding in my car
And a man comes on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more
About some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
I can't get no uh no no no
Hey hey hey that's what i say
I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get me no girly action
When i'm watchin' my tv
And a man comes on to tell me
How white my shirts could me
But he can't be a man 'cause he does not smoke
The same cigarettes as me
And when i'm flying around the world
And i'm doin' this and i'm tryin' do that
And i'm trying to make some girl
Tells me baby better come back later next week
Can't you see i'm on a losing streak
2.Beautiful World
Beautiful world
It's a beautiful world we live in
A sweet romantic place
Beautiful people everywhere
The way they show they care
Makes me want to say
It's a beautiful world
For you
It's a wonderful time to be here
It's nice to be alive
Wonderful people everywhere
The way they comb their hair
Makes me want to say
It's a wonderful place
For you
Hey
Tell me what i say
Boy 'n' girl with the new clothes on
You can shake it to me all night long
Hey hey
It's not for me
3.Big Mess
I am cowboy kim
Cowboy kim i am
I am a lucky cowboy
Let me tell you why
I'm a man with a mission
A boy with a gun
I got a picture in my pocket of the lucky one

With my microphone

I wear a cowboy hat
It is my business hat
I'm on till 1:00 a.m.
I must tell you that
I'm a man with a mission
A boy with a gun
I got a picture in my pocket of the lucky one
Who doesn't know i'm a big mess

Big mess he was a
Big mess he was a
He was really mixed up
Cowboy kim i am
Mr. reality

On the radio
4.Freedom Of Choice
A victim of collision on the open sea
Nobody ever said that life was free
Sank, swam, go down with the ship
But use your freedom of choice
I'll say it again in the land of the free
Use your freedom of choice
Your freedom of choice
In ancient rome there was a poem
About a dog who found two bones
He picked at one
He licked the other
He went in circles
He dropped dead
Freedom of choice
Is what you got
Freedom of choice!
Then if you got it you don't want it
Seems to be the rule of thumb
Don't be tricked by what you see
You got two ways to go
I'll say it again in the land of the free
Use your freedom of choice
Freedom of choice
Freedom of choice
Is what you got
Freedom of choice!
In ancient rome
There was a poem
About a dog
Who found two bones
He picked at one
He licked the other
He went in circles
He dropped dead
Freedom of choice
Is what you got
Freedom from choice
Is what you want
(repeat)
5.Gates Of Steel
Twist away the gates of steel
Unlock the secret voice
Give in to ancient noise
Take a chance a brand new dance
Twist away the gates of steel
Twist away
Now twist and shout
The earth it moves too slow
But the earth is all we know
We pay to play the human way
Twist away the gates of steel
A man is real
Not made of steel
But the earth is all we know
We pay to play the human way
Twist away the gates of steel
The beginning was the end
Of everything now
The ape regards his tail
He's stuck on it
Repeats until he fails
Half a goon and half a god
A man's not made of steel
Twist away
Now twist and shout
The earth it moves too slow
But the earth is all we know
We pay to play the human way
Twist away the gates of steel
A man is real that's how he feels
6.Girl U Want
She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined love
It drips on down in a mist from above
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
You hear her calling everywhere you turn
You know you're headed for the pleasure burn
But the words get stuck on the tip of your tongue
She's the real thing but you knew it all along
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
Look at you with your mouth watering
Look at you with your mind reeling
Why don't we just admit it's all over
Just the girl u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She sings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined lust
It drips on down in a mist from above
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
Look at you with your mouth watering
Look at you with your mind spinnin'
Why don't we just admit it's all over
Just the girl u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
That u want
She's just the girl, just the girl
7.Gut Feeling
Something about the way you taste
Makes me want to clear my throat
There's a message to your movements
That really gets my goat
I looked for sniffy linings
But you're rotten to the core
I've had just about all i can take
You know i can't take it no more
Got a gut feeling
Centered 'round long time ago
On your ability to torment
Then you took your tongs of love
And stripped away my garment
Got a gut feeling
Slap your mammy down
Slap your pappy down again
Oh move it up and down now
Oh move it all around now
8.Here To Go
If you smell the smoke
You don't need to be told
What you got to do
Yet there's a certain breed
So very in between
They'd rather take a vote
Running short on time
Still they can't decide
But we already know
That we are here to go
We are here to go
We are here to go
We are here to go
We are here to go
What is really mine
Who's at the top of the pile
Where does he draw the line
Let them figure it out
Go on and step across
Just remind yourself
That we are here to go
When it grows too long
The tail wags the dog
The hand that bites gets fed
Troubled multiply
The crowd begins to cry
For some common sense
Let them all dig in
When the odds are no win
Head for the nearest door
'cause we are here to go
Go!
9.Jerkin' Back 'n' Forth
I know i let you tell me what to do
You were confident you know best
Now things aren't working like you want them to
Your confidence is what i detest
You got me lookin' up high
You got me searchin' down low
You got me i know you know
You got me jerkin' back 'n' forth
You told me people like to suffer
You told me that's the way it is
You said that things were getting better
You said i should expect all this
You think it's funny
But what i say is true
The reason that i live like this
Is all because of you
There is a thought that keeps me thinking
Like a stone inside my shoe
It is a vision reoccurring
A dirty window i can see you through
10.Jocko Homo
They tell us that
We lost our tails
Evolving up
From little snails
I say it's all
Just wind in sails
Are we not men?
We are devo!
We're pinheads now
We are not whole
We're pinheads all
Jocko homo
Are we not men?
D-e-v-o
Monkey men all
In business suit
Teachers and critics
All dance the poot
Are we not men?
We are devo!
Are we not men?
D-e-v-o
God made man
But he used the monkey to do it
Apes in the plan
We're all here to prove it
I can walk like an ape
Talk like an ape
I can do what a monkey can do
God made man
But a monkey supplied the glue
We must repeat
O.k. let's go!
11.Peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo!
I can see you
And i know what you do
So put your hands on your face
And cover up your eyes
Don't look until i signal
Peek-a-boo! peek-a-boo! peek-a-boo!
The way that we weren't is what we'll become
So please pay attention while i show you some
Of what's about to happen
Peek-a-boo!
I know what you do
Cause i do it too
Laugh if you want to or say you don't care
If you cannot see it you think it's not there
It doesn't work that way
12.Smart Patrol/mr. Dna
He's been with the world
And i'm tired of the soup du jour
He's been with the world
I wanna end this prophylactic tour
Afraid nobody around here
Understands my potato
Guess i'm only a spudboy
Looking for a real tomato
We're the smart patrol
Nowhere to go
Suburban robots that monitor reality
Common stock
We work around the clock
We shove the poles in the holes
Wait a minute
Something's wrong
He's the man from the past
He's here to do us a favor
A little human sacrifice
It's just supply and demand
Mr. kamikazi mr. dna
He's an altruistic pervert
Mr. dna mr. kamikazi
He's here to spread some genes
Wait a minute
Something's wrong
He's a man with a plan
His finger is pointed at devo
Now we must sacrifice ourselves
That many others may live
Ok we've got a lot to give
This monkey wants a word with you
13.That's Good
Everybody it's a good thing
Everybody wants a good thing
Everybody ain't it true that
Everybody's looking for the same thing
Ain't it true there's just no doubt
There's some things that you can't do without
And that's good
Ain't it true as the sun that shines
You got yours and you got mine
And that's good
Everybody's just like you it's true
Everybody wants a good thing too
Now let's have a great big hand
For everybody who can understand
Life's a bee without a buzz
It's going great till you get stung
And let us not forget to toast
Everyone who might have missed the boat
And to everybody else who waits
Until the next one sails in again
Everybody it's a good thing
Ain't it true it's a monumental good thing
14.Through Being Cool
We're through being cool
Eliminate the ninnies and the twits
Going to bang some heads
Going to beat some butts
Time to show those evil spuds what's what
If you live in a small town
You might meet a dozen or two
Young alien types who step out
And dare to declare
Spank the pank who try to drive you nuts
Time to clean some house
Be a man or a mouse
Waste those who make it tuff to get around
If you live in a big place
Many factions underground
Chase down mister hinky dink
So no trace can be found
Put the tape on erase
Rearrange a face
We always liked picasso anyway
Mash 'em
15.Whip It
Crack that whip
Give the past the slip
Step on a crack
Break your momma's back
When a problem comes along
You must whip it
Before the cream sits out too long
You must whip it
When something's going wrong
You must whip it
Now whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Whip it good
When a good time turns around
You must whip it
You will never live it down
Unless you whip it
No one gets away
Until they whip it
I say whip it
Whip it good
I say whip it
Whip it good
Crack that whip
Give the past the slip
Step on a crack
Break your momma's back
When a problem comes along
You must whip it
Before the cream sits out too long
You must whip it
When something's going wrong
You must whip it
Now whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Whip it good
16.Working In A Coal Mine
Well i been workin' in a coal mine
Goin' down down
Workin' in a coal mine
Whew about to slip down
Five o'clock in the mornin'
I'm up before the sun
When my work day is over
I'm too tired for havin' fun
Lord i am so tired
How long can this go on
I been workin' goin' workin'
Whew about to slip down
