Don't Lose Your Head

About Don't Lose Your Head

"Don't Lose Your Head" is the third single from the album Elegantly Wasted by INXS. Released in Europe (Germany and The Netherlands) and Japan at the end of 1997. No official release for this in USA. The song was written by Michael Hutchence and Andrew Farriss and recorded by the band in Dublin during the summer of 1996. Although it was never officially released as a single in USA, INXS released "Don't Lose Your Head" as a promo tie-in with Paramount's 1997 film Face/Off starring John Travolta and Nicolas Cage. A Radio Edit version of the single was remixed by Tom Lord-Alge to clean up the opening lyrics; "You wake up in the morning with a starfuck for a friend" to "You wake up in the morning with a dealer for a friend". more »

Shot your mouth off like a kid
Who's scared to have a heart
You're loosing grip of what really matters
Cause you don't know where to start
You wake up in the morning
With a star f*ck for a friend
The things you do are so in tune
With what you said you hate
What's giving you the will to live
Is looking for revenge
The only laugh that you've got left
Is hiding from the pain
What must have happened to your soul
Is skinnin' you alive
The thing that you fear the most is love
And that's buried deep inside
So deep inside 
Don't lose your head
Cause I can't do the time
Don't lose your head
If you can't pay the price 

The heart you're building out of rock
Is turning into sand
Cause you never took the time to think
What it means to be a man
You act like you got the answers
When the questions never asked
I've been to where you're coming from
But the postcards weren't so bad
The knife I carry's been sharpened
On the mouth's that won't keep shut
I'll stab at you in the darkness
Cause I'm trying to shed some light
Your point of view's so meaningless
If you ever had one at all
All you seem to care about
Is who's is gonna take the fall 

Don't lose your head
Now I can't do the time for ya
Don't lose your head
Can you pay the price 

Don't lose your head
Cause I can't do the time
Don't lose your head
But can you pay the price 

Don't lose your head
You can't do the time
Don't lose your head
You can't you pay the price 

Don't lose your head
You can't do the time
Don't lose your head
I can't do the time

INXS

INXS (pronounced "in excess", In-XS) were an Australian rock band, formed as The Farriss Brothers in 1977 in Sydney, New South Wales. Mainstays were Garry Gary Beers on bass guitar, Andrew Farriss on guitar and keyboards, Jon Farriss on drums, Tim Farriss on lead guitar and Kirk Pengilly on guitar and saxophone. For 20 years, INXS were fronted by Michael Hutchence on lead vocals, whose "sultry good looks" and magnetic stage presence made him the focal point of the band. Initially known for their New Wave/ska/pop style, they later developed a harder pub rock style, including funk and dance elements. more »
