Stone Temple Pilots - Silvergun Superman Lyrics

Oh... oh that tone is juicey

Never before have I thought of an object as sexy. But the guitar playing on this tune is so sexy! STP! 🤘💜

So who are the 158 tone deff muppets who disliked this? 🤦‍♂️

Lyrics:

Find you in the dark
Read you like a cheap surprise
Without shame
Sell me out and frame your name
I can hear when the pig whispers sweetly
Jealousy is the weapon you kill me
Keep a dime for a truth you might tell

You toed the line and I know it was mine
Couldn't hide write a wave ride a lie
Let me know can I friend ask you why?

Rolling back the days
With my friend I love to play
The little one
Superman with silver gun

I can hear when the pig whispers sweetly
Jealousy is the weapon you kill me
Keep a dime for a truth you might tell

You toed the line and I know it was mine
Couldn't hide write a wave ride a lie
Let me know can I friend ask you why?

Wait for me, take a dive take a piece of my life
(Leave me numb) wait for me, tell a lie, try to take my life
(Leave me numb) wait for me, take a dive take a piece of my life
(Leave me numb) close to me, and I'll leave you numb

You toed the line and I know it was mine
Couldn't hide write a wave ride a lie
Let me know can I friend ask you why?

You toed the line and I know it was mine
Couldn't hide write a wave ride a lie
Let me know can I friend ask you why?

You toed the line and I know it was mine
Couldn't hide write a wave ride a lie
Let me know can I friend ask you why?

A great song I almost forgot about

One of my favorite solos freaking ever, so wicked.

Songs so cool it gives me frostbite

Saw them on the tiny music tour 96 boston (new) garden, blew my 15yr old mind. This may be my fav stp disc but go back to Tiny Music, great but different

Critic hated them. Fuck the critics. One of my favorite bands ever.

The DeLeo Bros. straight crush it 🤘🤘🤘

i can hear when the pig whispers sweetly

You know i have listened to music. couldn't tell you a single line said but i listened to music. these tracks I will always remember. STP has always been my go to and i am still here listening and hearing things now in Scott's voice that i didn't hear before. First was the music and now is His voice. If i could have knocked a door down to save him i would have but I am nobody just a fan that heard they're music and now hears his voice. RIP Scott

Definitely the most underrated song on me album! 🤔

Damn , im old

https://youtu.be/2b3piuYWLkQ

Absolutely killer track, album

Rock on stp

Great riff

Most trippy sound of the era. A six pack, a boat, STP and it's a great night

Hands down the best shit they wrote in a sea of perfect songs.

Can a friend ask you why

Fuck I love this album!! Second CD I ever bought! :)

This whole album is FUCK YEAH AWESOME

The bass in this is incredible.

✊😎🎤🎸

About time some good music !! ❤️

Hearing STP is like when l was just a grade school kid hearing VH for the first time, you knew it would be legendary! Phenomenal music fellas!!!!!

The first time I went to a strip club at age 18 I had 2 gorgeous strippers jack me off at the same time as this song was playing. I love the song besides that.

Hell yeah!

Great riff

God Damn this song goes good with a Kettle 1 & Sprite. Fuckin Love It.

You toad the line

Only hero's I like are those transformers, Heck Turtles still cool.

Kinda Wished I had A tragic story to go with my name. I don't. You got that. This bad guy just the way he is.

Fuck pearl jam, Alice in chains,candlebox etc this is the best early 90's grunge album ever.

Amen..so true

THERE IS NO DOUBT! THESE GUYS ARE GREAT AND COULD OF BEEN LEGENDS.A LOT OF TALENT HERE.SCOTT IS AMAZING, THIS WHOLE BAND

Powerful. Sexy. Stoic.
This song makes me feel this way and I think that's what being a man is all about.
Moving the world with your good energy.

what a song......

Silver Gun Superman is my theme song 😎

starbucks

When things get out of hand at the end & it’s a mash of incoherent music, then the laugh & crash is classic “Band” fun.

Best Stp Solo

A beast of a song!........what a band!....what a band!

Fuckin underated

I think this song is about Scott getting into a fight with one of the boys.

HIPPOSTOMPER this song is about Scott’s heroin addiction

That solo,man that solo

Minuto 4:00

R.I.P. Kline

Psychedelic...mesmerizing

This is where they peaked...they made some more good stuff but nothing quite as good as this album.

I think this album and tiny music are their best albums ever.

@Daniel G Yeah, and Core was very good too. :)

Thank you for all your art Mr. Weiland. We miss u.

Much better than Pretty penny before it.

badass song

One of they're best.

Such a fucking great album. I remember listening to this on the way to work with my cousin, grabbing coffee and breakfast sandwiches on the way to the construction sites. It was like a tradition: STP and coffee lol

Esto deberia sonar en la radio, en las mañanas, para darte el hype antes de ir a trabajar o estudiar, Soundgarde, Stone Temple Pilots, Pearl Jam, lo unico que saben pasar en regeton o cumbia de la mala :(

How I miss Scott... This track kicks ass!! \m/

they play so well - together!

Purple 2as the best alt album of the 90s... spectacular

Sleether guitar lines

Grungy to the fullest

Kick or die !

there is not a song I don't like, what ever I put on is a jam !

this is probably my fave stp album.

Dean sure has some mean riffs

still miss ya Scott!!

If you play guitar friends this is a wicked fun one to play . All of stp's dean's stiff Is . He is very technical and SIMPLY WICKED . LIKE SOUR GIRL TRY THAT ONE SEEMS EASY BUT NAAA NOT REALLY . ENJOY AND CHEERS 🤘🤘🤘🤘

RIP brother your music got me through all the hard times and the good times they will never be another 1 like u this is music period not this trash today I remember buying on a cassette when I was 12 ahhhhhh the good ole days

Definitely some Beatle-esque vibes happening during the chorus... I saw STP play live at ZetaFest in Miami in 2000, 25 feet from the stage - best band of the entire day; far better than Filter, whose equipment I hauled to the show in my tractor-trailer.! Live sound of STP is unmatched!

Scott i'll cry for you forever, yours songs have the probably the most sense of my life...

If I was a professional wrestler, this would be my entrance music. Such a wicked band.

The only problem is that they would cut the song short and that would be terrible

not every band has a masterpiece, alice in chains had dirt, prince had purple rain, this was stp's masterpiece, every song was awesome. core came close but this was the one

STP had so many...

Alice in Chains had everything. Smashing Pumpkins have Mellon Collie. Nirvana has MTV Unplugged in New York. STP had Purple. Pearl Jam has Ten.

I love this album but imo Core is their best

@Deven Powers Honestly yes, AiC never dropped the ball.

a música só não foi perfeita pq não terminou ralentando!

Their best piece of work ever!

Still a great jam!

STP was always poetic and for me so mysterious, this song is like that. It keeps me thinking even 20 odd years later.

Not to mention a sick riff and composition all over.

Totally mysterious

May I use this song for a video?

You told a line, and I know it was mine. Happens all the time at the bar!

12 years old in 1994 and I had purple on cassette tape!!!

Badass song and the only STP album I care about. "Core" was too derivative, and they went off the rails and up their own ass after "Purple". I got this from the library when it came out and dubbed it with my parents' dual cassette boombox. I played it so much in my Walkman, the tape started wearing out. Good times.

Growing up in the 90s ruled

Very true. I miss the days of gorgeous women having full pubic hair muffs.

@Jeff lol WTF, wasn't that the 70's?

@Virtual_ IT_Admin all decades until the turn of the millennium then that's when everything changed for the worse

Oh yeahhh: being a direct witness of the last true rock music era is a privilege that many can never achieve....
Long live the 90’s...

God damn right

Major cold chills at 00:15.

Dean and Robert DeLeo are just amazing!

Dammit I miss music like this. Unfortunately I was just a kid when this era happened but thankfully had an older brother who religiously listened to this among other.

Badass song. Thanks Scott

That lick at 3:47 i love mannn
Got that George Lynch taste2 it
