Lyrics to 3 brand new songs!

 

“Get Close”:

Spoiler

Listen
I walk the city at midnight with the past strapped to my back
Lately I can’t get no sleep, I’m a real insomniac
I was chatting with a ghost, wants a hundred and a match
Says, “I know you got the money, where’s the man behind the mask?”

 

I wanna get close to you
I wanna get close to you
I wanna get close to you

 

I walk this way a million times with a blindfold on my eyes
It’s a nighttime business with an angel in disguise
I bargained with the devil, I need heaven for one night
I can’t stand this chaos, it’s churning up my mind

 

I wanna get close to you
I wanna get close to you
I wanna get lost in you

 

Talk to me
Pour your secrets out
Tеll me I’m the only man you evеr dream about
Talk to me, why don’t you scream it out?
Tell me that you’d rather die than live without
Live without me

 

I wanna get close to you
I wanna get close to you

 

Talk to me
Pour your secrets out
Tell me I’m the only man you ever dream about
Talk to me, why don’t you scream it out?
Tell me that you’d rather die than live without
Live without me

 

I wanna get close to you
I wanna get close to you
I wanna get high on you
I wanna get lost in you
I wanna dive into you
I wanna get close to you

“Bite My Head Off”:

Spoiler

Why ya bite my head off
Why ya bite my head off?
Why ya get so pissed off
Why ya bite my head off now?
Yeah, c’mon, why ya bite my head off?
Acting such a jerk off
Why you have to mouth off?
I got the world to worry about

 

Yeah, if I was a dog, yeah, you would kick me down
I’d be spending the night howling ‘round your house
But I ain’t on a leash, yeah, well I ain’t on a chain
You think I’m your b*tch, I’m f*cking with your brain

 

Why’d ya bite my head off?
Well, life can be a riot, I can be the pilot

 

Provided that it’s private
I got the world to worry about

 

Now you got me drinking
Started to stop thinking
The whole f*cking ship is sinking, sinking
I’m looking for a quick way out

 

Yeah, well, I’m hearing the bark, and I’m feeling thе bite
Yeah, I’m seeing the shark, I think I gotta hidе
Well, I ain’t on a leash, well, I ain’t on a chain
You think I’m your b*tch, I’m f*cking with your brain

 

Well, why ya bite my head off?
Just ‘cause you are red hot
Acting like a despot
Why ya bite my head off now?
Why ya bite my head off?
Why ya bite my head off?
Why ya rip the bed up?
I got the world to worry about

“Sweet Sounds Of Heaven” featuring Lady Gaga:

Spoiler

I hear the sweet, sweet sounds of heaven
Falling down, falling down to this earth
I hear the sweet, sweetest sounds of heaven
Drifting down, drifting down to this earth

 

Bless the father, bless the son
Hear the sound of the drums as it echoes through the valley and it bursts
Let no woman or child go hungry tonight
Please protect us from the pain and the hurt

 

Yeah
I smell the sweet scents, the sweet scents of heaven
Tumbling down, tumbling down to the earth
I hear the sweet sounds, sweet sounds of children
And they’re praising the land of their birth

 

No, I’m not, not going to hell in some dusty motel
And I’m not, not going down in the dirt
I’m gonna laugh, I’m gonna cry
Eat the bread, drink the wine
‘Cause I’m finally, finally quenching my thirst

 

You can’t have a light without a little shadow
Always need a target for your bow and arrow
I want to be drenched in the rain of your heavenly love

 

Let the music play loud, let it burst through the clouds
And we all feel the heat of the sun
Yeah
Let us sing, let us shout
Let us all stand up proud
Let the old still believe that they’re young

 

Sweet, sweet sound
Sounds so sweet
Sounds so sweet
Heaven
Heaven
Falling down to this earth
I hear the sweet, sweet sounds of heaven
Coming down, falling down to the earth
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Hear the gods laughing from above
Falling down, falling down to this earth
Let me lay down and sleep
Heaven
Heaven

Excited for this, not only because of Gaga but also because they're legends and I really liked the lead single :gaycat1:

Angry is good! Their sound is eternal so I can't wait to hear the rest of the songs.

Thought the album was very cute. SSOH is the standout, but others like Whole Wide World and Mess It Up were highlights for me.

I'm not a huge Stones fan, but this album is surprisingly fun. It feels very contemporary while having a lot references to their whole music career. No try-hard mess like certain other old-school rockstars recently, just a cool vibe all around. The Muddy Waters cover gives me goosebumps, what a beautiful way to not only close the album, but coming full circle in their careers. And my god, these 80 year olds really gave us the bop of the year with Mess It Up, let's go (grand)daddies!:WAP:
