Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie Lyrics

Gimme gimme gimme gimmie
I need more I need more
Gimme gimme gimmegimmie
Don't ask what for Don't ask what for

Sitting here like a loaded gun
I'm waiting to go off
I've got nothing to do
But shoot my mouth off

Gimme gimme gimme gimmie
I need more I need more
Gimme gimme gimme gimme
Don't ask what for Don't ask what for

I know the world's got problems
I've got problems of my own
They 'ain't the kind that can be solved
With an atom bomb

Gimme gimme gimme gimmie
I need more I need more
Gimme gimme gimmegimmie
Don't ask what for Don't ask what for

You know I gonna go out
Get something for my head
If I keep on doing this
I'm gonna end up dead

Gimme gimme gimme gimmie
I need more I need more
Gimme gimme gimme gimmie
Don't ask what for Don't ask what for

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

The is a Black Flag song on their Everything Went Black Album that came out in 1982. It was sung 1st by original front man and co founder of Black Flag Kieth Morris. Also sung by Two other guys on that 1977-81 music the early black flag years. Henry Rollins took over as lead singer in summer of 1981 & it was on their debut studio Album called Damaged. Anyways, the song is about desperation always wanting more more more gimmie gimmie gimmie was a very popular BF punk song in the early 1980's. Im suprised that more Tool - PF fans are not aware of Black Flag and real hardcore punk rock. Maybe most fans are too young.
