Alice Cooper - Vicious Rumours Lyrics






You feel the knife stuck in your back
You feel it twist and you hear it crack
Can't make a sound for the sudden pain
You wish your blood were Novocaine

You see the smoke and you feel the flak
You're burning up and you're turning black
They say you fell and you hit your head
Your other bun is Whitenbread

Vicious rumours, paranoic fears
Sonic boomers ringing in your ears
All of this is getting normal now
You'll never go back to your farming plough
Vicious rumours

You're right at home back at William's flat
You heard a sound you turned and shot your cat
Your hands are shaking, everybody sees
And there's a rhythm drumming in your knees

You return into a foreign night
Inside you know something is just not right
Sometimes you duck when you see your pet
Canary turned into a Sabre jet

Shocked consumer - you're just an average guy
Swelling tumor pushing on your eye
And now you know why all the headaches come
And why you're getting progressively numb
Vicious rumours

I've been denied, debriefed, detuned
Sometimes I howl right at the moon
My family treats me gradually
They know my volatility

Vicious rumours, paranoic fears
Sonic boomers ringing in your ears
And now I know why all the headaches come
And why you're getting progressively numb
Vicious rumours

Alice Cooper Vicious Rumours Comments
  1. D.... G....

    I had Alice sign my vinyl of this and 'pretties for you'. He looked at 'special forces' and said "that was a weird time of my life!"

  2. M.... M....

    OK FOLKS, the lyrics to this song,,,,,, it's "They say you fell and you hit your head, your upper bunk is wet-n-red" which makes so more sense than "Your other bun is Whitenbread" LOL,,,, If you read the lyrics on the actual album, well, there you go.

  3. j.... t....

    cool remaster

  4. R.... S....

    Sonic boomers ringing in your ears

  5. M.... ....

    Such an awesome underrated album it should have sold alot better than it did.

  6. m.... g....

    special forces est l'un des deux meilleurs albums de alice cooper vraient un disque à posseder. le son est vraiment meilleur et rend bien mieux en vinyle d'ailleurs

    The lyrics are incorrect..... "They say you fell and you hit your head, your upper bunk is wet-n-red" not "Your other bun is Whitenbread", LOL Who the hell came up with those lyrics? It makes no sense.

    j.... z....

    @Mrs Mix Music upper bunk wet and red makes more sense than other buns Whippenbread or whatever. It's an essential lyric in a song that seems to be about being jacked up on Coke or speed.

  8. m.... k....

    great song

  9. R.... H....

    I was so young when I saw this tour that my mom had to drive me to the show. She sat in the parking lot and watched the festivities, it was the LAST time she ever brought me to a concert.

  10. C.... K....

    What a wicked and twisted song. Love it.

  11. L.... C....

    Fantastic Album. Alice has lots of Fans Down Under Too.

  12. l.... p....

    only alice i ever owned or needed.

  13. A.... L....

    This is his best solo album. definitely the most consistent album for me. i dont really hear any filler on "special forces", which is rare in the Cooper catalogue

  14. C.... E....

    Special Forces is so darn underrated. What a great album. His best album of the 80's.

    C.... E....

    It really is man, me and my buddy listened to this that whole Summer, still have the album. The label he was on stopped pressing this and you couldn't find it for years. So damn good !

    C.... E....

    Totally agree with you. This tour was one of his best because it was different, unexpected.

    C.... E....

    I don't think so! I've never listen all the album it's not Alice.

    C.... E....

    Easily. His other three albums from the early 80's are pretty good too (Flush the Fashion, Zipper Catches Skin and Dada) but Special Forces is better than those and considerably better than Constrictor or anything following that

  15. k.... m....

    I rocked to Special Forces for years - thanks to a dude that burned me a copy. My husband didn't believe it existed until he found it in a record store in Paris, France.

    k.... m....

    kim mays Yeah, I got the CD on import, Imports were mostly made in eruope or Japan.

  16. C.... H....

    This was one of my favs when it came out.  Only met one other guy who had it.  Glad to hear it here.

  17. d.... c....

    my wife had this cassette we wore it out could never find this till now thanks for shareing

    d.... c....

    Please buy the CD for quality reasons.
