You're on the outside
You're lookin' in
You're takin' pictures
Of what you've never been

So kill to kill
So you want to die?
You're burnin' slowly
With seven lies

Blow up the bitch
With the firecracker smile
Switchblade in her suitcase
Loves to drive them wild

So kill to kill
Yeah you're gonna die
Everybody's searchin'
Every single night

You'll never keep it
'Cause you sold yourself
And by the way-i-ay-i-ay
You'll never lose it
'Cause you never had it
It's all the sa-i-ay-i-ame

Rock star life
Turn off the switch
Hollywood bitch
So fake that she seems real
(She goes again)

Rock star life
Turn off the switch
Hollywood bitch
So fake that she seems real
(She goes again)

She's from the Westside
She's lookin' thin
She fills her body
With what she'll never be

So kill to kill
So you want to die?
Everybody's searchin'
Every single night

You'll never keep it
'Cause you sold yourself
And by the way-i-ay-i-ay
You'll never lose it
'Cause you never had it
It's all the sa-i-ay-i-ame

Rock star life
Turn off the switch
Hollywood bitch
So fake that she seems real
(She goes again)

Rock star life
Turn off the switch
Hollywood bitch
So fake that she seems real
(She goes again)

Rock star life
Turn off the switch
Hollywood bitch
So fake that she seems real
(She goes again)

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."
