Search and Destroy Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm a street-walking cheetah
With a heart full of napalm
I'm a runaway son of the nuclear A-bomb
I am a world's forgotten boy
The one who searches and destroys
[Pre-Chorus]
Honey, gotta help me, please
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby, detonate for me!
[Verse 2]
Look out, honey, 'cause I'm using technology
Ain't got time to make no apology
Soul radiation in the dead of night
Love in the middle of a firefight
[Pre-Chorus]
Honey, gotta strike me blind
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby, penetrate my mind
[Chorus]
And I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin', searchin' to destroy
And honey, I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin' only to destroy
Hey!
[Bridge]
(Hey! hey!
Hey! Hey!)
[Verse 2]
Look out, honey, 'cause I'm using technology
Ain't got time to make no apology
Soul radiation in the dead of night
Love in the middle of a firefight
[Pre-Chorus]
Honey, gotta strike me blind
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby, penetrate my mind
[Chorus]
And I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin', searchin' to destroy
And honey, I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin', searchin' to destroy
[Outro]
Forgotten boy, forgotten boy
Forgotten boy, said, uh
Hey, forgotten boy, said
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Baby, baby, babe, hey, yeah
Aw, baby, baby
