"We're All Gonna Die" lyrics Slash and Iggy Pop


The final track on Slash's solo album features the Wild Child himself, Mr Iggy Pop. Known for fronting the Stooges and a fairly successful solo career, I vaguely recall some of the GNR musicians once helped him out on a few tracks, this is probably some form of professional payback. 

Slash said about the recording process “Iggy was the first guy to come in the studio and put a vocal down. When I sent him the song he called me up a couple of days later and over the phone, on my answering machine he left him singing the words while the demo I sent him was playing off the stereo in the background. It was so rock ‘n’ roll, it was really, really cool.


"I flew him in from Miami and he came in and put that down. It was just great, he sort of set the tone for the whole record.”




"We're All Gonna Die" lyrics:

Gee, I really like your tits
I'll say anything that fits
We carry our vision
Wherever we go
If you keep your mouth shut
It's still gonna show

We're all gonna die
So let's get high
We're all gonna die
So let's be nice
I'm in the mood
So let's intrude
Pee on the ground
And jump around

I'm getting sick of paying bills
I need my doctor, I need my pills
We carry our women
Wherever we go
If you keep their mouth shut
They're gonna moan
(Mhm)

We're all gonna die
So let's get high
We're all gonna die
So let's be nice
I'm in the mood
So let's intrude
Pee on the ground (heh heh)
And jump around

Life is demanding
But I'm just a bum
And if I respect it, boy
I feel dumb!

SOLO

We're all gonna die
So let's get high
We're all gonna die
So let's be nice
I'm in the mood
So let's intrude
Pee on the ground
And jump around

We're all gonna die!!!!!

(We're all gonna die)
(Laughing)
(We're all gonna die)
(I wanna, I wanna, I wanna whip it out and pee on the ground!)
(We're all gonna die)
(And then I'm gonna, and then I'm gonna, and then I'm gonna, afhadlfhalfheoqwefhlance, what am I gonna do? I'm gonna jump around!)

Check out the lyrics to I Hold On with Kid Rock on Vocals and Slash on... guitar. And if you like this kind of music, you may wish to read the lyrics to Bang Bang by Green Day. It's a classic discourse of the frailty of humanity....

  5. I think people are missing something here. First, it's Iggy. He is so out there and non-conformist, I would say this is pretty normal for him. Second, if you listedn to it like he's a wasted rocker singing the song, it makes perfect sense.
