Motorhead - Walk A Crooked Mile Lyrics






If you were in the movies,
Who would you play?
If you were tried for murder
What could you say?
And if you were out to lunch
What would you eat?
We wanna know the answers
Who do you want to beat?

Don't show your fear,
Keep it out of site,
Don't loose your place in here
And you might be all right

Don't say nothing shut your mouth
Out of time work it out
You're leaving in a cruel world
And your face is out of style
Boogey man, magic word,
Walk a crooked mile.

If you were Armageddon
Who would you spare?
If you were judge and jury,
Why would you care?
And if you were out of breath
How would you breathe?
The world deserves the answers,
What do you have up your sleeve?

Can't show your hand
Find another way,
Can't play that ace in here,
Never see another day.

Plead no contest, pass the buck,
Running scared, you ain't so tough
We hold rehearsal for your death
We're tired of your smile
Boogey man, see what you get
Walk a crooked mile.

Standing in the spotlight,
What would you need?
If you were a soldier,
How would you bleed?
And if you were in the rain,
What would you wear?
We're hungry for the answers,
Don't seem right, bu we don't care.
Don't bring your friends,
Send them all away
Don't meet your end in here,
Don't throw your life away.

Don't you change, don't drop your guard,
Double bluff throw down your cards,
Death has put his mark on you
Man and boy and child,
Boogey man, back to start
Walk a crooked mile.

    Forgive me I don't mean to be stupid but could anyone shed some light on the meaning of this song absolutely love Lemmy and Motorhead. His songs are like the greatest poetry ever written but just like in college poetry class sometimes I fail to decipher the meaning this one has stumped me for years.

  66. F.... ....

    To the 20 people who "disliked" this song, Snaggletooth will impale you with him tusks and then make you walk a crooked mile!

    F.... ....

    A lot of people hated this song when it came out because of the very melodic chorus. Lemmy himself admitted that people flat-out told him they didn't like it.

    F.... ....

    F 'em! This song is amazing!! @Bleak5170

  67. A.... A....

    I never heard this album before, but by default I knew that I were going to love it, and I'm doing. Motörhead is the law.

  84. K.... ....

    I really dig this more melodic approach they took on Hammered, it's very different compared to the other albums.

    K.... ....

    +K3yBoardMani4c Yeah, gotta love their ever so slight diversity with every album!

    K.... ....

    K3yBoardMani4c alternative

    K.... ....

    Exactly, like Sacrifice is very thrash metal and Another Perfect Day is a bit proggy.

    K.... ....

    @Until it Sleeps Another Perfect Day had Brian Robertson ex Thin Lizzy which is why lemmy never liked it, well either Brian or the end result, I do though but whatever!

    K.... ....

    K3yBoardMani4c The Melodic sound was very definitive to the early 2000’s

  85. I.... R....

    Motorhead - Greatest band ever
    Bigger than Iron Maiden and Fakealica

    I.... R....

    +john m cancer

    I.... R....

    +john m about 3 days before your comment

    I.... R....

    +john m You could definitely say greatest, but saying they're bigger than Maiden and Metallica is quite a stretch, Motorhead isn't the biggest, but who cares because it doesn't change the quality of their music

    I.... R....

    +crazycamkalani it's not a big claim who started the double kicker thrash drum style Philthy animal philosophy Taylor you listen to Lars and he even says Philthy and Motorhead invented thrash you watch int

    I.... R....

    +crazycamkalani it's not a big claim who started the double kicker thrash drum style Philthy animal philosophy Taylor you listen to Lars and he even says Philthy and Motorhead invented thrash you watch interviews with Cliff and he even said that Lemmy was his number one influence so Motorhead bigger I'm yes vote grandfather of thrash Philthy most definite overkill first official thrash song prove me wrong

  86. P.... C....

    gotta love the true rawness

    P.... C....

    Always! \m/

  87. J.... N....

    Complitly underrated....I love it

  88. R.... D....

    There was a crooked man and he walked a crooked mile,
    He found a crooked sixpence upon a crooked stile.
    He bought a crooked cat, which caught a crooked mouse,
    And they all lived together in a little crooked house.

    R.... D....

    Roger Demaine when i saw congering 2 i knew that came right from moterhead..r.ip Lemmy

    R.... D....

    @Tacklecentral Fishing Xo5 Her pussy was crooked

    R.... D....

    Tacklecentral Fishing Xo5 maybe he was so crooked that he was bent

    R.... D....

    @Tim Perks i thought it came from Agatha Christie, and she took it from a popular english song... 🤔

    R.... D....

    He wasn't crooked. He got BENT.

  89. M.... C....

    You don't even know.......(shakes head) whats coming

  90. D.... B....

    Motorhead rule live life loud and fast heavy metal 4 ever

  91. D.... B....

    Motorhead rule live life loud and fast heavy metal 4 ever

  92. s.... ....

    seems to me that this album was produced lousily.

    s.... ....

    +spittinslim how so?

    s.... ....

    Damn millennial.

  93. k.... h....

    Anyone talking shit on Motörhead, for any reason at all, you better not do it in my presence.

    k.... h....

    same goes here, im no tkugh guy and id happily give or take a beating defending motorheadds legacy

    k.... h....

    kevin hanson Let anyone talk shit about anything and don't worry about it. Lemmy could handle himself. He didn't need you to defend him. I grew up where he did and you get rained on a lot. He gave what he had to give. Take it or leave it and leave others in peace. I know Lemmy would've wanted it that way.

    k.... h....

    You better run

    k.... h....

    I agree bro

    k.... h....

    So you don't know the difference between "your" and "you're", but you're going to try to act like a condescending intellectual. lol

  94. E.... M....

    Fantastic Rock N Roll Song

  95. f.... ....

    mh4life

  96. D.... P....

    This album is next on my list!

  97. A.... M....

    If you were in the movies, Who would you play? If you were tried for murder What could you say? And if you were out to lunch, what would you eat? We wanna know the answers Who do you want to beat? ... Who and what ...
     

    A.... M....

    Think hes talking in 3rd person about himself
