Looking for Strange Lyrics
Jetlag limbo can't decide
Like molten rock I turn to stone
Take me outside of myself
Do it nice and slow
Somewhere down here in the underbelly
No words are used to speak at all
Comatose from lack of sleep
Will I ever learn to talk?
Echoes scream without a sound
Mirror pond reflects no face
Shellshock avalanche
Dialed out can't be reached
No failsafe at close range
Girls and boys
Guns and noise
Beat by beat
Be the best that you can be
Best to your ability
Your future's bright and ours to take
Do exactly as we say
Step right up, sign right here
Your name in blood, have no fear
Get ready set all systems go
Good life Godlike
Wanna see it from the inside
Bound down gun shy
Looking for strange
Go on give it to me
Don't stop let me feel it
Looking for strange
Faster, Harder, More
Last chance, no return
Looking for strange
Freefall swan dive
Like molten rock I turn to stone
Take me outside of myself
Do it nice and slow
Somewhere down here in the underbelly
No words are used to speak at all
Comatose from lack of sleep
Will I ever learn to talk?
Echoes scream without a sound
Mirror pond reflects no face
Shellshock avalanche
Dialed out can't be reached
No failsafe at close range
Guns and noise
Beat by beat
Be the best that you can be
Best to your ability
Your future's bright and ours to take
Do exactly as we say
Step right up, sign right here
Your name in blood, have no fear
Wanna see it from the inside
Bound down gun shy
Looking for strange
Go on give it to me
Don't stop let me feel it
Looking for strange
Faster, Harder, More
Last chance, no return
Looking for strange

Great comeback song by KMFDM. I like the way the guitar fades out at 1:46.
And only decent song by them since the WWIII album, IMO

OMG. Scream at 2:29 is so sexy with the "Give it to me don't stop" in the foreground. This is actually my favorite KMFDM song among Stars and Stripes and Blackball. So good.
So, to me, this song is about the military, and war (as a lot of KMFDM songs are). I could go on and analyze lyric by lyric but who am I kidding, I'm too drunk for that shit. All I have to say is....
"Girls and boys Guns and noise Beat by beat Be the best that you can be Best to your ability Your future’s bright and ours to take Do exactly as we say Step right up, sign right here Your name in blood, have no fear"
Girls and Boys...The openly try to persuade males and females into joining the military Guns and noise...This is the appeal, guns, and noise. Seems like it'd be fun at first, right? Be the best that you can be...The army's commercial slogan at one time was "Be all that you can be"...Pretty close if you ask me
The rest is quite obvious....
"Your name in blood, have no fear" I can only thing to the moment when I took the oath, and my recruiter said "You are now a part of the most powerful Army the world has ever seen"
