INXS - Kick Lyrics






Guns In The Sky

See the sound
It crashes in
All around
It gets in
Now take your hands
And raise them up
Into to the air
That's all around ya
Now bring them down
Like a clock at two
Shake your head
You know what to do
They want to put
Guns in the sky
Someone out there
Ain't gonna like it

But it could be good
Make us love each other
Have to realize
I own the future

Guns in the sky

Guns in the sky

Guns in the sky

Guns in the sky

Guns in the sky
Child grows up to see
Guns in the sky
Used to be on TV

Want to change
Forgot the joke
It's great to see you
I'm running late, da da da
Love your hair, da da da
Lend me a ten, da da da
I love your big house, da da da

Could you spare a dime
Well I'm sick of it, it's a load of shit
We could stop the world and let of all the fools
And let them go live with their guns in the sky

Guns in the sky
Guns in the sky
Guns in the sky
Guns in the sky
Guns in the sky
Guns in the sky
Guns in the sky

New Sensation

Live, baby, live
Now that the day is over
I got a new sensation
In perfect moments
Well, so impossible to refuse
Sleep, baby, sleep
Now that the night is over
And the sun comes
Like a god into our room
All perfect light and promises

Got a hold on you
A new sensation, a new sensation
Right now, it's gonna take you over
A new sensation, a new sensation

Dream, baby, dream
Of all that's come and goin'
And you will find out in the end
There really is
There really is no difference
Cry, baby, cry
When you got to get it out
I'll be your shoulder
You can tell me all
Don't keep it in ya
Well, that's the reason why I'm here

Hey, hey
Are you ready for a new sensation? A new sensation
Right now
Gonna take you over
A new sensation, a new sensation
Trumpet
A new sensation, a new sensation
Hey
A new sensation

Hate, baby, hate
When there's nothing left for you
You're only human, what can you do?
It'll soon be over
Don't let your pain take over you
Love, baby, love
It's written all over your face
There's nothing better we could do
Than live forever
Well, that's all we've got to do

Hey now, uh
I'm gonna take you over
A new sensation, a new sensation
Right now
Got a hold on you
A new sensation, a new sensation
A new sensation, a new sensation

A new sensation

Devil Inside

Here come the woman
With the look in her eye
Raised on leather
With flesh on her mind
Words as weapons sharper than knives
Makes you wonder how the other half die
Other half die
Here come the man
With the look in his eye
Fed on nothing
But full of pride
Look at them go
Look at them kick
Makes you wonder how the other half live

The devil inside
The devil inside
Every single one of us the devil inside

The devil inside
The devil inside
Every single one of us the devil inside

Here come the world
With the look in its eye
Future uncertain but certainly slight
Look at the faces
Listen to the bells
It's hard to believe we need a place called hell

Need You Tonight

Come over here

All you've got is this moment
Twenty-first century's yesterday
You can care all you want
Everybody does, yeah, that's okay

So slide over here and give me a moment
Your moves are so raw, I've got to let you know
I've got to let you know
You're one of my kind

'Cause I'm not sleepin'
There's somethin' about you, girl
That makes me sweat

How do you feel? I'm lonely
What do you think? Can't think at all
What you gonna do? Gonna live my life

So slide over here and give me a moment
Your moves are so raw, I've got to let you know

You're one of my kind

How do you feel? I'm lonely

Mediate

Hallucinate
Dessegregate
Mediate
Alleviate
Try not to hate

Love your mate
Don't suffocate on your own hate
Designate your love as fate
A one world state
As human freight
The number eight
A white black state
A gentle trait
The broken crate
A heavy weight
Or just too late
Like pretty Kate has sex ornate
Now devastate
Appreciate
Depreciate
Fabricate
Emulate
The truth dilate
Special date
The animal we ate
Guilt debate
The edge serrate
A better rate
The youth irate
Deliberate

Fascinate
Deviate
Reinstate
Liberate
To moderate
Recreate
Or detonate
Annihiliate
Atomic fate

Mediate
Clear the state
Activate
Now radiate
A perfect state
Food on plate
Gravitate
The Earth's own weight
Designate your love as fate
At ninety-eight we all rotate

Hallucinate
Dessegregate
Mediate
Alleviate
Try not to hate

Love your mate
Don't suffocate on your own hate
Designate your love as fate
A one world state
As human freight
The number eight
A white black state
A gentle trait
The broken crate

A heavy weight
Or just too late
Like pretty Kate has sex ornate

Now devastate
Appreciate
Depreciate
Fabricate
Emulate
The truth dilate
Special date
The animals we ate
Guilt debate
The edge serrate
A better rate
The youth irate
Deliberate
Fascinate
Deviate
Reinstate

Liberate
Liberate

The Loved One

Yonder she's walking
She comes my way
Her red dress on
Her long black hair

Walking like
Talking like
Wanting like
She comes to me

Oh, baby I love you so
I need you now
I want you back
I can't go on

Helpless baby
Evil child
I've known you well
If you want to stay, that's alright
You want me again
And then you come a-running to me
Well, baby, baby, that's alright
Oh, that's alright
Hey, that's alright

And now she's gone
She's walking away
Her red dress on
Her long black hair

Well I love her so, yeah
And now she'll come running
Anytime I say, now
Anytime I say

Oh, baby I love you so
I need you now
I want you back
I can't go on

Oh, baby I love you so
I need you now
I want you back
I can't go on

Oh, baby I love you so
I need you now
I want you back
I can't go on

I love you so, baby
I need you so
I want you back
I can't go, can't go on

Wild Life

Take one step
Out the door
Look around
For a whole lot more

Off in the distance
Fire burn bright
We make decisions
That's what we do
That's what we do

Wild life
Wild life
When it's bad it ain't bad enough

I'll be your one
Your one and only
Like animals
Locked in the zoo

Give me freedom
Day and night
No one to tell me
What to do

I got to learn
Some respect
That's what I have
I have for you

Motivation
It comes and goes
But the questions
They stay alive

Never Tear Us Apart

Don't ask me
What you know is true
Don't have to tell you
I love your precious heart

I
I was standing
You were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never tear us apart

We could live
For a thousand years
But if I hurt you
I'd make wine from your tears
I told you
That we could fly
'Cause we all have wings
But some of us don't know why

I was standing
You were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never ever tear us apart

I (don't ask me)
I was standing (you know it's true)
Mm, you were there (worlds collided)
Two worlds collided (we're shining through)
And they could never tear us apart
You (don't ask me)
You were standing (you know it's true)
I was there (worlds collided)
Two worlds collided (we're shining through)
And they could never tear us apart

I
I was standing
You were there
Two worlds collided

Mystify

All veils and misty
Streets of blue
Almond looks
That chill divine
Some silken moment
Goes on forever
And we're leaving broken hearts behind

Mystify
Mystify me
Mystify
Mystify me

I need perfection
Some twisted selection
That tangles me
To keep me alive

In all that exists
None have your beauty
I see your face
I will survive

Eternally wild with the power
To make every moment come alive
All those stars that shine upon you
Will kiss you every night

All veils and misty
Streets of blue
Almond looks
That chill divine
Some silken moment
Goes on forever
And we're leaving
Yeah we're leaving broken hearts behind

You're eternally wild with the power
To make every moment come alive
All those stars that shine upon you
And they'll kiss you every night

Kick

Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on

I look around
Unsatisfied
At what they're giving me
But then I think
To myself
Is there someone else
Oh, who feels the same as me
Do you feel the same baby

When my back is broken
When the mountain moves away
All the dreams and promises
That we give
We give away

Sometimes you kick
Sometimes you get kicked
Sometimes you kick
Sometimes you get kicked

Sometimes you kick
Sometimes you get kicked, oh
Sometimes you kick
Sometimes you get kicked, baby

Look ahead
But don't mix it up
Baby look ahead
To better days
And better ways
Make peace
With flesh and blood
Make peace
With your love

Nothing more I could ask of you
But in the end this is the truth

When my back is broken
When the mountain moves away
All the dreams and promises
That we give
We give away

Sometimes you kick
Sometimes you get kicked
Sometimes you kick
Sometimes you get kicked

Sometimes you kick
Sometimes you get kicked
Sometimes you kick, oh
Sometimes you get kicked

Sometimes you kick
Sometimes you get kicked, oh

Calling All Nations

Well you spent the whole day
With your axe to the wheel
Read the late paper it was full of bad news
Excuse me but I think what I'm saying is true
You've got to find some time and devote it to you

So come on down
To the party
Callin' all nations
To put it on the line

So come on all you people with the stars in your hair
You know what's going on
There's no need to despair
Take the chains from your mind
Take the chains from your feet
And do the sex dance 'cause it's necessary

You don't have to be rich
You don't have to be famous
You just gotta have a little bit of patience
Jump into your old car
Or take a cab, train or boat
The only thing that matters
Is that ya gotta really go

Tiny Daggers

Ever stop to wonder
Should I question
Move a stone look under
Should I judge

How you have changed my friend
You're not the same my friend
Do you lose sleep at night
Do you ever stop to think
Where it went wrong for you
Who turned your reds to blue

Who put those tiny daggers in your heart
Who put those tiny daggers in your heart
Who put those tiny daggers in your heart

Ever stop to wonder
I should not question
Move a stone look under
I should not judge

They say you're never lonely
They say you're with the best
But when they turn those lights out
I bet you spin and turn
And cry just like the rest
And cry just like a baby

Ever stop to wonder
I should not question
Move a stone look under
I should not judge

No need for desperation
No need for sweet revenge
Please try to remember
The door is always there
Don't you walk on by
The door is always there

All you want to do is kick it in
All you got to do is walk right in
