Gotta get me some
Gotta get me instant gratification.
Gimme new kicks,
Won't you show me new tricks
Without the ramifications.

Give it a try, don't be shy.
Well you know you might like it.
Never been to keen a timekeeper
But I'm a pure new pleasure seeker.

All the way from Venus.
Invading from Mars.
Don't let that come between us.
It's written in the stars.

Save me from fading afraid.
The tears of a fool on parade.
Quietly turn into stone.
Make me flesh and bone.

Well come on, oh.
You know that you want it now
Well come on, yeah.
You know that you want it and how.

Stimulation in body and cell.
For the good and misguided.
Desperation I'm under your spell.
Misunderstood and derided.

Speculation they kiss and they tell.
Misjudged and misquoted.
Fell into the abyss
I must have wanted this.

Another myth exploded.
Take a weight off your mind.
Trust the voice of experience.
I'll tell you little white lies.
Viva indifference.

Stoke up the fire
I'm all you require.
They won't set you alight.
Come and live your desire.

Come make me whole.
Body and soul, come make me whole
Yeah.

Well come on, oh, oh.
You know that you want it now.
Well come on, oh.
You know that you want it and how.
Well come yeah
You know that you want it now.
Well come yeah
You know that you want it now.

Gimme new kicks
I wanna go deeper
Never been to keen a timekeeper
Show me new tricks
You can get me on the beeper
I'm a pure new pleasure seeker.

Gimme new kicks
I wanna go deeper
Never been to keen a timekeeper
Show me new tricks
You can get me on the beeper
I'm a pure new pleasure seeker.

Be crime against passion
Not to itch that itch
Oh don't ask how it happened
This is it
All we have ever wanted
All we will ever need
Nothing can take his plan
It's written all over your face
Yeah
You know that you want it now
Come on
Oh ah you know that you want it how.
Come on
Yeah you know that you want it now.
Come on
Oh ah you know that you want it how.

Gimme new kicks
I wanna go deeper
Never been to keen a timekeeper
Show me new tricks
You can get me on the beeper
I'm a pure new pleasure seeker.

Come make me whole
Body and soul

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
