## Song lyrics
### Appetite for Destruction (1987)

* Welcome to the jungle We've got fun 'n' games. We got everything you want Honey, we know the names. We are the people that can find Whatever you may need. If you got the money, honey We got your disease.
** Welcome to the Jungle, written by Axl Rose and Slash
* Welcome to the jungle. It gets worse here everyday. Ya learn ta live like an animal In the jungle where we play. If you got a hunger for what you see You'll take it eventually You can have anything you want But you better not take it from me.
** Welcome to the Jungle
* I get up around seven Get out of bed around nine And I don't worry about nothing no 'Cause worrying's a waste of my...time.
** Mr. Brownstone, written by Slash and Izzy Stradlin
* Take me down To the Paradise City Where the grass is green And the girls are pretty. Oh, won't you please take me home?
** Paradise City, written by Axl Rose, Slash, Izzy Stradlin, and Duff McKagan
* She's got a smile that it seems to me Reminds me of childhood memories Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky. Now and then when I see her face, She takes me away to that special place. And if I stayed too long I'd probably break down and cry.
** Sweet Child o' Mine, written by Axl Rose and Izzy Stradlin
* She's got eyes of the bluest skies As if they thought of rain. I'd hate to look into those eyes And see an ounce of pain. Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place Where as a child I'd hide And pray for the thunder and the rain To quietly pass me by.
** Sweet Child o' Mine

### G N' R Lies (1988)

* Shed a tear 'cause I'm missin' you. I'm still alright to smile Girl, I think about you every day now Was a time when I wasn't sure But you set my mind at ease There is no doubt You're in my heart now.
** Patience, written by Izzy Stradlin
* I been walkin' the streets at night Just tryin' to get it right. Hard to see with so many around. You know I don't like bein' stuck in the crowd. And the streets don't change but baby the name I ain't got time for the game 'Cause I need you. Yeah, yeah, but I need you.
** Patience

### Use Your Illusion I (1991)

* When I look into your eyes I can see a love restrained But darlin' when I hold you Don't you know I feel the same? 'Cause nothin' lasts forever. And we both know hearts can change And it's hard to hold a candle In the cold November rain We've been through this Such a long long time Just tryin' to kill the pain.
** November Rain, written by Axl Rose

### Use Your Illusion II (1991)

* D'you wear a black armband When they shot the man Who said "Peace could last forever" And in my first memories They shot Kennedy. I went numb when I learned to see So I never fell for Vietnam We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all That you can't trust freedom When it's not in your hands When everybody's fightin' For their promised land.
** Civil War, written by Axl Rose, Slash, and Duff McKagen
* I don't need one more war. What's so civil about war anyway?
** Civil War
