Lyrics:

Gimme fuel
Gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire
Oh

Yeah
Turn on, I see red
Adrenaline crash and crack my head
Nitro junkie, paint me dead
And I see red

Running across through black and white
War horse
War head
Fuck 'em, man
White knuckle tight
Through black and white

Oh, I burn
Fuel is pumping engines
Burning hard
Loose and clean

Oh, and I burn
Turning my direction
Quench my thirst with gasoline

So gimme fuel
Gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire

Hey

Turn on beyond the bone
Swallow future, spit out hope
Burn your face upon the chrome

Yeah, oh yeah

Take the corner, going to crash
Headlights
Headlines
Another junkie, who lives too fast

Yeah
Lives way too fast, fast, fast, fast, fast, fast
Oh

Oh, I burn
Fuel is pumping engines
Burning hard
Loose and clean

Oh, and I burn
Turning my direction
Quench my thirst with gasoline

So gimme fuel
Gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire
Oh yeah

(James mumbles something)

Oh
Gimme fuel
Gimme fire
My desire

Oh, I burn
Fuel is pumping engines
Burning hard
Loose and clean

And I burn
Turning my direction
Quench my thirst with gasoline

Gimme fuel
Gimme fire
Gimme that which I desire
Oh

On I burn

That is it.

Metallica - Fuel
Metallica - Fuel This is the new Metallica-sound, or not the new but this is some of their newest stuff. And that is not as popular and good as the classic Metallica stuff, just so you know: Metallica play Thrash-Metal too:) "Fuel" is the opening song from Metallica's ReLoad album. It stems from the thrill of fast driving and street racing. The song could also be applied to the fact that people like to drive their lives (like their cars) too fast. It is one of James Hetfield's favorite songs as he later said before a concert played at an Oakland Raiders game,"We have to play Fuel...'cause it gets me pumped up." (taped on Some Kind of Monster) Another interpretation of this song, which reflects the external struggles of the band members themselves as well as the personal lyric style James Hetfield adopted beginning with The Black Album, suggests that the song is about addiction. Specifically the addiction may be Hetfield's alcoholism, but it could be a reference to any sort of addiction. It is a reference to whatever it may be that fuels a person. Further, it may reflect Hetfield's decision to substitute his love of cars and racing for his love of alcohol. This is evidenced throughout the entire song and survives interpretation; the song may get the band and the crowd "pumped up," but it is by no means as simple a song as it appears. The song was written by Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, and Kirk Hammett, and was the third single from the album. It is now a permanent fixture at their live shows, and was performed on their S&M album. "Fuel" was also covered by Avril Lavigne on their edition of the tribute show, MTV Icon, in 2003. Another group, Iron Horse, covered the song as well. "Fuel" was the theme song used for NASCAR broadcasts on NBC and TNT from mid-2001 to the 2003 seasons. (It was also used for the 2004 coverage of the Daytona 500, but not as the theme song.) However, during portions of the 2001 season, the opening scream used in the opening was removed because of its close association with terrorists in the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks. The pre-release version of the song entitled "Fuel For Fire" (with different lyrics) appears on the NASCAR Full Throttle CD. The lyric "Fuck 'em, man" was left uncensored on all U.S. rock stations until 2004. As well as the Avril Lavigne performance on MTV. A censored version of the lyric began appearing on the single soon after the FCC cracked down on indecency after the Janet Jackson Super Bowl fiasco. It is unknown whether the rock stations volunteered to edit the song or were forced to do so. "Fuel" was the featured song on the game Hot Wheels Turbo Racing for the Playstation game system and the game Test Drive Off-Road: Wide Open for the Playstation 2 and Xbox systems. Fuel Gimme fuel, gimme fire Gimme that which I desire Turn on, I see red Adrenaline crash and crack my head Nitro junkie, paint me dead And I see red One hundred plus through black and white War horse, warhead Fuck 'em, man, white-knuckle tight Through black and white On I burn Fuel is pumping engines Burning hard, loose and clean And on I burn Churning my direction Quench my thirst with gasoline So gimme fuel, gimme fire Gimme that which I desire Turn on beyond the bone Swallow future, spit out home Burn your face upon the chrome Take the corner, join the crash, Headlights, head on, headlines Another junkie lives too fast Lives way too fast On I burn Fuel is pumping engines Burning hard, loose and clean And on I burn Churning my direction Quench my thirst with gasoline So gimme fuel, gimme fire Gimme that which I desire White-knuckle tight Gimme fuel Gimme fire My desire On I burn Fuel is pumping engines Burning hard, loose and clean And on I burn Churning my direction Quench my thirst with gasoline Gimme fuel, gimme fire Gimme that which I desire On I burn Words and Music by James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich and Kirk Hammett Copyright © 1997 Creeping Death Music (ASCAP) International Copyright Secured All Rights Reserved
