Metallica - Breadfan Lyrics






Breadfan, open up your mind, open up your purse,
Open up your bones, never, never gonna lose it.
Breadfan, take it all away, never give an inch,
Gotta make a mint, gotta make me a million.
Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long time friend's
Gonna lose it in the end, who's a fool.
Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man,
Stay a ghost, stay what you wanna be.

Loser, give it all away, never stay with the winner,
With the man with all the filthy money.
Come on, keep it on the side, with a ride on a record,
On the top if you're gonna be a bad boy.
Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long time friend's
Gonna lose it in the end, who's a fool.
Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man,
Stay a ghost, stay what you wanna be.

Breadfan, open up your mind, open up your purse,
Open up your bones, never, never gonna lose it.
Breadfan, take it all away, never give an inch,
Gotta make a mint, gotta make me a million.
Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long time friend's
Gonna lose it in the end, who's a fool.
Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man,
Stay a ghost, stay what you wanna be.

  7. D.... A....

    sexy song

  8. T.... ....

    That wonderful slow vocal part in the original Budgie song is missing here. Most probably, because Hetfield wouldn't be able to sing it.

  9. h.... l....

    metallica é foda

  10. l.... l....

    Well, this sucks. Now go listen to ningen isu version for pure awesomeness

    l.... l....

    Its shit

  11. A.... M....

    Pinnacle of my guitar craze daze I learned to play this. Got married, sold the guitars.

    A.... M....

    😥😥

  12. J.... S....

    Thats what i said squirrlley bread!

  13. D.... P....

    How Fu@king good is this?

  14. J.... H....

    someone understood the notneccessecity (not a word-yet) for high res - thanks and cheers

  15. M.... ....

    Ningen Isu brought me here

  16. N.... A....

    Still a great song today! It's from my teenage years

  17. M.... ....

    I sing this to myself when I have a crusty loaf in my hand whilst dipping it into a hot bowl of tomato soup, mmmmm yeah.

  18. s.... g....

    Had the $5.98 E.P. Garage Days Re-Revisited ($9.98 CD) years ago and sold it. Worth a bit now I’d say.

  19. J.... K....

    non sens

  20. R.... W....

    Metallica doing the classic Budgie Breadfan. Of course, Budgie does it better. It’s their song.

  21. g.... n....

    someday I'm gonna be yelling at my grandkids to TURN THIS SHIT UP!!

  22. P.... M....

    BUDGIE - BREADFAN

  23. o.... ....

    I always liked Metallica's cover of "Breadfan" obviously it's heavier than the original but the thing that stands out for me is James Hetfield's vocals... I always liked Budgie but was never a fan of Burke Shelley's vocals all that much...

  24. S.... S....

    That middle section is catchy as fuk. It rivals anything they did elsewhere (middle section of Puppets, for example)

  25. M.... T....

    WHOEVER DOESN'T - LOVE - THIS VERSION OF THIS SONG -
    '' SUCKS DICK '' .

  26. B.... M....

    The Justice days were the best days IMHO.

  27. C.... C....

    this is tha dirty digity dog S$%T (cover) of the last days of TRUE Metallica...Farewell HELLA HELLICA!!!

  28. j.... k....

    This can only be listened to with volume on max.

  29. s.... ....

    przepiękny cover zespołu Budgie! czapki z głów!

  30. p.... ....

    I like the Ningen Isu live version of this too. They renamed it 'Spiny Mountain in Hell'.

  31. M.... M....

    Great song classic but why oh why does Metallica have to cover this just doesn't work for me but then I'm biased saw budgie live in there' early yrs in a local pub by me

  32. S.... P....

    Even though I heard ALL Metallica tunes ,,I rarely heard this ,,been listening to the likes of Justice ,,or Black album ,,,but IM DEFINITELY adding this to my OFTEN play list

    S.... P....

    Same here ,, definitely a rare nugget

  33. D.... i....

    What a riff for 1973....

  34. J.... H....

    still listening Aug 30 2019 ... rocks

  35. F.... T....

    Very nice cover, except the worthless part that implies animals suffering and childhood grief at the end.

  36. m.... p....

    nice cover of Budgies breadfan

  37. R.... L....

    I prefer the original but this is still a badass cover!

  38. J.... H....

  39. k.... U....

    Budgie did it better.

  40. K.... B....

    this song reminds me of growing up in the gutter. i'm glad I got out of there... but I cant say that there weren't days I enjoyed the fuck out of that fucked up shit...

  54. T.... i....

    "Bread"..is a slang from the 60s-70s era for Money. Breadfan= Fan of Money. This song was written in 1973. A decade too early.

  69. 8.... ....

    WTF is a breadfan

  70. b.... ....

    Can anyone please tell me what a breadfan is please ???😂

  71. N.... B....

    Wait no budgie's version is much better

  72. N.... B....

    I have to admit I might like this version better than the original budgie version

  73. g.... n....

    Damn!! JBL, KLIPSH, WIRELESS WHATEVER!! they All BLOW up on this song!! at least I'm rich

  74. J.... G....

    Bungie yeah

  75. W.... T....

    yes, this is off budgies 1973 album Never Turn Your Back on a Friend

  76. S.... ....

    What does breadfan even mean ?🤷🏽‍♂️

    S.... ....

    "bread" = money, the original song is circa 1973

  77. m.... ....

    It's even more Metallica than original Metallica's songs. Probably because this and a few other covers helped them get signed with a label and record Kill'em All (Metal Up Your Ass).

  78. D.... R....

    In Brazil it was used as a theme to a sports news program,called 'Globo Esporte'.

  79. F.... ....

    this song cuts.............

  80. I.... F....

    Since I know metallica has done covers of songs by other artists before, the first time I heard this song, I thought it was going to be a metallica cover of the song around the world by the red hot chili peppers with the opening guitar riff. Metallica covered a song by diamondhead am I evil? and covered Stone Cold Crazy by queen. Now that I just thought of it, it would be interesting to see metallica cover a song by the red hot chili peppers.

  81. A.... D....

    Good cover but Id never swap for Budgie

  82. S.... M....

    The solo part sounds like Suicidal Tendencies :)

    S.... M....

    ST sounds like Metallica.

  83. k.... ....

    This song is such a bad ass Metallica song

  84. C.... A....

    I covered a Queen song by Metallica... And it will NEVER be this good

  85. M.... H....

    Bread was such a mellow group how are these guys fans?

  86. J.... ....

    Stay A Bird, Stay A Man, Stay A Ghost, Stay What You Want To Be.

  87. D.... T....

    This was an outtake from the And Justice For All sessions. It SOUNDS amazing. Imagine if they had recorded the entire Justice album just like they recorded this song. Can you imagine how super fantastic that album would have sounded that way??

  88. B.... K....

    BUDGIE from 1973!!!

  89. m.... w....

    THANK YOU METTALICA.........i knew this song when it came out and you MF's nailed it TY

  90. �.... �....

    Breadfan !!!!!!

  91. M.... B....

    This Song by BUDGIE is much, much better ! This is damned crap. I

  92. D.... S....

    Breadfan 2019?

  93. r.... r....

    Toast fan😋

  94. T.... M....

    it just sucks that they sold out to make money when they had loyal fans that was there from the beginning then they went commercial sold the fuck out

  95. T.... M....

    1 off the best songs then they turn to shit rip

  96. A.... M....

    Lars finest moment

  97. R.... ....

    Bed pan

  98. T.... ....

    針の山

  99. R.... A....

    I bought a breadfan from ikea. It rocked at first and then it cut its hair and starting making commercial " bob rock" noises
