Song lyrics
All lyrics written by Nikki Sixx, except as noted.

Too Fast for Love (1981)

 * No, no You better turn me loose, You better set me free. Because I'm hot, young, running free, A little bit better than I used to be.
 * Live Wire


 * Living on a jet, Making love to someone else's dreams. Say it again. She puts her leg up. Well, calls it good luck. Do you know what I mean? Do you remember? Well I remember.
 * Too Fast for Love

Shout at the Devil (1983)

 * He's the wolf screaming lonely in the night, He's the blood stain on the stage. He's the tear in your eye, Been tempted by his lie.
 * Shout at the Devil


 * Now listen up She's razor sharp. If she don't get her way, Well, she'll tear you apart. Now she's a cool, cool black And she moves like a cat. If you don't get her game, You might not make it back.
 * Looks That Kill


 * You say our love Is like dynamite. Open your eyes, It's like fire and ice. Well you're killing me, Your love's a guillotine. Why don't you just set me free?
 * Too Young to Fall in Love

Theatre of Pain (1985)

 * You know that I've seen Too many romantic dreams, Up in lights, Falling off the silver screen. My heart's like an open book For the whole world to read. Sometimes nothing Keeps me together At the seams.
 * Home Sweet Home

Girls, Girls, Girls (1987)

 * Kneel down you sinners to streetwise religion, Greed's been crowned the new king. Hollywood dream teens, yesterday's trash queens Save the blessings for the final ring, amen.
 * Wild Side


 * Trick or treat, sweet to eat On Halloween and New Years Eve. Yankee girls you just can't be beat, But they're the best when they're off their feet.
 * Girls, Girls, Girls


 * The blade of my knife Faced away from your heart. Those last few nights It turned and sliced you apart. This love that I tell Now feels lonely as hell From this padded prison cell.
 * You're All I Need

Dr. Feelgood (1989)

 * He's the one they call Dr. Feelgood. He's the one that makes ya feel alright. He's the one they call Dr. Feelgood.
 * Dr. Feelgood


 * He'll tell you he's the king Of these Barrio streets, Moving up to Shangri La. Came by his wealth as a matter of luck, Says he never broke no law. Two time loser running out of juice, Time to move out quick. Heard a rumour going round, Jimmy's going down, This time it's gonna stick.
 * Dr. Feelgood


 * When I get high I get high on speed Top fuel funny car's A drug for me My heart, my heart Kickstart my heart Always got the cops Coming after me Custom built bike doing 103 My heart, my heart Kickstart my heart
 * Kickstart my Heart


 * When we started this band All we needed, needed was a laugh Years gone by... I'd say we've kicked some ass When I'm enraged Or hittin' the stage Adrenaline rushing Through my veins And I'd say we're still kickin' ass.
 * Kickstart My Heart


 * Ooo, ahh, kickstart my heart Hope it never stops And to think, we did all of this... To rock
 * Kickstart my Heart


 * Without you in my life I'd slowly wilt and die. But with you by my side, You're the reason I'm alive. But with you in my life, You're the reason I'm alive.
 * Without You


 * All, all around the world, Girls will be girls. It's the same old, same old situation. It's the same old, same old ball and chain.
 * Same Ol' Situation


 * Seasons must change, Separate paths, separate ways. If we blame it on anything, Let's blame it on the rain. I knew it all along I'd have to write this song. Too young to fall in love, Guess we knew it all along.
 * Don't Go Away Mad

Decade of Decadence 81-91 (1991)

 * Scream and shout, Rip that mother out. You just gotta say "hey" Primal scream and shout.
 * Primal Scream

Mötley Crüe (1994)

 * Everybody wants a piece of the action, Everybody wants a piece of the pie.
 * Hooligan's Holiday


 * Oh life it's misunderstood them, So they close their eyes And dream of better days. Oh life it's misunderstood yeah. Life's not always fair or so they say.
 * Misunderstood

Generation Swine (1997)

 * Do you, do you want to bleed? Do you, do you want to live in vain?
 * Afraid


 * Decked out like an hourglass, Ammonia and a razor blade. Things were just okay until she Fell in love with cocaine.
 * Beauty, written by Nikki Sixx and Scott Humphrey

New Tattoo (2000)

 * Bashful Betty such a bondage brat, Dressed in latex and coated in sewer rats. A serpent's tongue, calculating mind, Gets top dollar for the hip shake divine. Look to the sky, There's no rain in sight. Better wear your rubber boys If Betty is your date tonight.
 * Hell on High Heels, written by Mick Mars, Vince Neil, and Nikki Sixx


 * Tonight I saw your face up in the stars Stumbled here to paint you on my arm. There's something that I need to say to you, So I wrote this song. Because you belong Right here on my new tattoo.
 * New Tattoo, written by Mick Mars, James Michael, and Nikki Sixx

Saints of Los Angeles (2008)

 * We are, we are the saints, we signed our life away. Doesn't matter what you think, were gonna do it anyway. We are, we are the saints, one day you will confess And pray to the saints of Los Angeles.
 * Saints of Los Angeles
