1975
Fired from Hawkwind after a drugs bust going into Canada,
Lemmy Kilmister returned to London. Determined to start his

    ------ About the song Rock 'N' Roll performed by Motorhead

who typed these lyrics?
"I love the the well-liver, runnin round the world"?
common sense says "I love the way I live, runnin round the world"
and love how you had to put "I'd fuck'em anyway" at the end
your hilarious and oh so clever.

    ------ About the song Ace Of Spades performed by Motorhead

@craig. In an interview with Lemmy Kilmister,he stated that he wrote Ace of Spades about playing poker with "Fast" Eddie Clarke while riding in their tour bus doing 100 mph.That was how they passed the time riding between gigs. So if Lemmy says its about gamblig or a crad game. I'd take his word for it.

If anyone is wondering what the song is about, it's clearly about gambling, not a specific game but just gambling in general, and how Lemmy doesn't give a fuck as to wheather or not he wins or loses at gambling.

Lemmies Father | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song Poison performed by Motorhead

cool song.......obviously about his father:
My Father, he used to be a Preacher,
Never taught me nothing but scorn,
If I ever catch him on the street, yeah,
I'll make him wish he'd never been born,
He was Poison,
Guess he poisoned my life
He was Poison,
I wish my mother wasn't his wife, no!

F&ck!n loudest concert I've ever seen!!!!!

Rock&Roll | Reviewer: Alexandre Rayon
    ------ About the song You Better Run performed by Motorhead

The first song I have learned to play in full. This song by Motorhead is real, good Rock&Roll. Although the 'blade like lightning' and the 'silver bullets in my gun' are sexual references, they are rather funny and I do enjoy singing that part.

not just about card games! | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song Ace Of Spades performed by Motorhead

"seven and eleven, snake eyes watching you"
is a clear reference to craps, a casino dice game:
a first roll of seven or eleven pays the pass line, but snake eyes (double one) causes you to lose the bet right away

Repetitive but great! | Reviewer: Oane
    ------ About the song Ace Of Spades performed by Motorhead

I've seen motorhead 3 times over a span of 8 years on the same festival. probably the got motorhead free with the main stage. and each time the same joke:

    ------ About the song Ace Of Spades performed by Motorhead

Its clearly about POKER!

Dead mans hand is a poker hand contaning to pairs, aces and eights. Its named dead mans hand because wild bill hickok was shot in the back while holdin that hand.

Now you know That!

Great arena song | Reviewer: O'Bie
    ------ About the song The Game performed by Motorhead

This is a truly get pumped up tune. Great song at the sports events, obviously wrestling for Triple H, but also football, hockey & wherever some juices need to get flowing. Motorhead is a terrific band. They really know how to dig down & blast you away- no doubt!!
