ARTIST: Iggy Pop
TITLE: Lust for Life
Lyrics and Chords


Here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs, and a flesh machine
He's gonna do another strip tease

/ A - - - / E - - - / /

   Hey, man, where'd you get that lotion
   I've been hurting since I bought the gimmick
   About something called love, yeah, something called love
   Well that's like hypnotizing chickens

   / A - - - / / E - - - / /

      Well, I'm just a modern guy
      Of course, I've had it in the ear before
      'Cause of a lust for life
      'Cause of a lust for life

      / G - - - / D - - - / E - - - / A - - - /

I'm worth a million in prizes
With my torture film, drive a G.T.O.
Wear a uniform, all on a government loan

   I'm worth a million in prizes
   Yeah, I'm through with sleeping on the sidewalk
   No more beating my brains, no more beating my brains
   With the liquor and drugs, with the liquor and drugs

      Well, I'm just a modern guy
      Of course, I've had it in my ear before
      'Cause of a lust for life
      'Cause of a lust for life

Well, here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs and a flesh machine
I know he's gonna do another strip tease

   Hey man, where'd ya get that lotion
   Your skin starts itching once you buy the gimmick
   About something called love, oh love, love, love
   Well that's like hypnotising chickens.

      Well, I'm just a modern guy
      Of course, I've had it in the ear before
      And I've a lust for life lust for life
      'Cause I've a lust for life lust for life

Got a lust for life, yeah a lust for life
I got a lust for life, oh a lust for life
Got a lust for life, yeah a lust for life
I got a lust for life, lust for life
{To fade}

/ A - - - / E - - - / / A - - - /
