The world is full of useless and abstract advice. Motörhead lyrics, however, contain truly RELEVANT, APPLICABLE & UNIVERSALLY VALID advice. I have meticulously collected the greatest imperatives from the lyrics of each and every Motörhead studio album.
Stay out of Jail
Don't sweat it, get it back to you
Grab a hold, don't let go
Don't be scared, live to win
Shut the door behind you when you go
Stay mean, stay clean
See the world and shoot it dead / Burn the town and paint it red
You better keep quite still / Get a drink and take your pill
All good clean fun, have another stick of gum
Don't you listen to a single word against rock'n'roll
Hold tight, feel the drivers bite
Come on baby, eat the rich
Don't you rely on passers-by
Don't ask for anything that you can't do yourself
You can't boogie with the boogeyman
Follow me, and don't you move
Go to hell, go to hell, go to hell
Don't look for maturity, don't you even dare!
Shoot straight, home base, get down, win the race
You'd better watch out, you never know / Who's going to be the next to go
Forget you're blood & bone / Stand like you're made of stone
You humans don't be so proud / You humans don't talk too loud
Don't you be scared, don't you be scared
Don't waste your time
Don't talk of things that we cannot see
Eat the gun
Get up on your toes
Listen to your heart
Try or fail, or succeed
Don't lie to me
Crash and burn, crash and burn, drive on
You got to move, momma didn't raise no fools
Never mind, never fail
Sing it loud, sing it out, make the people shout
Stay clean, be true / Do whatever you can do
If you want to live / You better learn the game
Fight, fight, fight / Fight, make it right / Fight, fight
Stand up for your life / Lay down for the knife
Let the voice of reason shine / Let the pious vanish for all times
Read the books, learn to save your life
Breakout, breakout, you must dance
Try to place all things in a certain rhythm
Don't be a heel or an imbecile
Go up on the mountain, speak to gods and men
Rock out, rock out, rock out
You'd better bite your lip / Get a focus, get a grip
Be still, turn your back, you can't survive, and that's a fact
Stay on the right track
Live or die, win or lose, can't be sure, no excuse
Don't believe a word, don't run with the herd
Better be safe than be sorry my son
Keep your powder dry
Watch out for the monsters in the alleys of the night
Get what you want, do what you can
Kiss a bolt of lightning / It'll make you sing
Let them see, let 'em be, teach them how to bleed
