"Mr. Blackwell"
-- Gene Simmons, Lou Reed

[Bass Intro]

I never said I was more than I am
Do what I want and I don't give a damn
You're all so weak you know it makes me ill
Don't like you now and probably never will

[Rhythm Fig. 1]
You cheat and lie, and wonder why
You can't sleep at night

[Rhythm Fig. 2 w/end.1]
You're not well, Mr. Blackwell
And we can tell
You're not well, Mr. Blackwell
Why don't you go to hell

I am a sinner who just loves to sin
I am a fighter who just loves to win
I am the truth about this crummy hole
There's nothing here that can't be bought or sold

[Rhythm Fig. 1]
You're cold and mean, and in between
You're rotten to the core

[Rhythm Fig. 2 w/end.2]
You're not well, Mr. Blackwell
And we can tell
You're not well, Mr. Blackwell
Why don't you go to hell
You're a victim, a real disgrace
You should be banished from the human race

[Solo] w/[Rhythm Fig. 3]

[Various Noise]

[Rhythm Fig. 1]

We'll drink to sorrow then we'll drink to waste
We'll drink a toast to the inhuman race
Here's to the world and the times we're in
Here's to the kid a real man among men

[Rhythm Fig. 1]
You're cold and mean, and in between
You're rotten to the core

[Rhythm Fig. 3]
You're not well, Mr. Blackwell
And we can tell
You're not well, Mr. Blackwell
Why don't you go to hell
