EXPLICIT LYRICS. SENSITIVE EARBALLS GO AWAY!
Space Lord (Uncut) Album: Powertrip (1998)
by Monster Magnet

"Space Lord" is a 1998 single from the album Powertrip. The song is in the key of C minor. It brought them mainstream success, with its accompanying music video directed by Joseph Kahn. The song peaked at number three on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart, and number twenty-nine on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart. A remixed version of the song was also made, and was featured (along with the original) on their compilation album Greatest Hits. The music video is notable for being the first video ever aired on MTV's Total Request Live on September 14, 1998. It appeared on the countdown five times climbing no higher than the No. 7 position.

The line "Space lord, mother fvcker" was truncated and an echo added to make the song more radio- and TV-friendly (the lyric is heard as "Space lord, mother, mother"), but the vocal rhythm is unchanged, and a band version with the original lyric has never been released. The original lyric can be heard uncensored on the "Intergalactic 7 Remix" on international releases of the aforementioned Greatest Hits album and also on the unofficial Boys Noize "Monster Bootnet" remix.

Singer Dave Wyndorf told Kerrang, "I'd hurt my knee, and had time off, so spent it in a dominatrix's apartment in New Orleans. Our record company forwarded me press from Europe and in Germany they called me 'Space Lord'. She saw it and took the piss, saying 'So you think you're the space lord?' I said, 'Someday when I can walk. I'll make you pay for taunting me by writing a song.'"

I've been stuffed in your pocket
For the last 100 days
When I don't get my bath
I take it out on the slaves
So grease up your baby
For the ball on the hill
And polish them rockets now
And swallow those pills

And sing, whoa
Space Lord, mother fvcker
Huh, ah-huh

There's a car in the field
Now in a column of flame
With two doors to choose
But only one bears your name
You been drinkin' my blood
Well, I been lickin' your wounds
Well, I'll shave off the pitch now
In the scope of your tune

You'll sing, whoa
Space Lord, mother fvcker
Huh, yeah

I left my throne a million miles away
I drink from your tit, I sing the blues every day
Now give me the strength to split the world in two, yeah
I ate all the rest and now I gotta eat you
Well, I sing

Milkin' my nightmares and usin' my name
You're strokin' my cortex and you know I'm insane
I'm squeezed out in hump-drive and I'm drownin' in love
Encompass them all to a position above

And sing, whoa
Space Lord, mother fvcker
Yeah
Ahh, yeah
Hey-hey-hey

I left my throne a million miles away
I drink from your tit, I sing the blues every day
Now give me the strength to split the world in two, yeah
I ate all the rest and now I've gotta eat you

Well, I sing (whoa)
Space Lord, mother fvcker
(Whoa)
Space Lord, mother fvcker
(Whoa)
Space Lord, mother fvcker
(Whoa)
Space Lord, mother fvcker
(Whoa)

I lost my soul when I fell to Earth
My planets call me to the void of my birth
The time has come for me to kill this game
Now open wide and say my name

(Whoa)
Space Lord, mother fvcker
(Whoa)
Space Lord, mother fvcker
(Whoa)
Space Lord, mother fvcker...
