[Verse 1: Jonathan Davis]
Living life, don't you cry
My life, pain is God
Many nights, painful thoughts occur
Yell at me again, I'm numb
In denial, I tried to be your friend
I tried to be a good boy
All I see, a hate deep inside
Startle me, someone save me
Now, these memories fill my heart!
They bury me!

[Chorus 1: Jonathan Davis]
All I wanna do! (You are not my real mother/Should I beat and stab and fuck her!)
Is Kill You!
All I wanna do! (You are not my real mother/Should I beat and stab and fuck her!)
Is Kill You!
All I wanna do! (You are not my real mother/Should I beat and stab and fuck her!)
Is Kill You!
All I wanna do! (You are not my real mother/Should I beat and stab and fuck her!)
Is Kill You!

[Verse 2: Jonathan Davis & Head]
Looking back, I was never ever right
You were my step-mom
Who always wanted me out of your sight
I would come walking in, and I'd say hello
But you slap me
And you make some fucked up comment about my clothes
Then I tried to let it pass
But the visions in my head
Were with you
With a knife up your ass, laying dead
So I pop some more caps in your ass
Now your son is not so fun
Motherfucking bitch!
Never try to play me!
You made my life not so good

[Chorus 2: Jonathan Davis]
All I wanna do is Kill You!
All I wanna do is Kill You!
All I wanna do (You are not my real mother/Should I beat and stab and fuck her!)
Is Kill You!
All I wanna do (You are not my real mother/Should I beat and stab and fuck her!)
Is Kill You!

[Outro: Jonathan Davis]
Wish you were dead/Now!
Ahaha!
How...
I know...
How can I cry over someone I never loved?
How can I cry over someone I never loved?
Never loved
Never loved

Bakersfield friends James “Munky” Shaffer, Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu and David Silveria formed the funk-rock band LAPD in 1989 and moved to Los Angeles with another friend Brian “Head” Welch as their roadie. Later, with Welch as second guitarist, the band named themselves Creep and recorded a demo with pal Ross Robinson.

However, when Shaffer and Welch visited family in Bakersfield, they met Jonathan Davis who added a darker, goth-tinged edge to the band’s heavy groove. Robinson

The band wasn’t dark yet; it had, like, killer grooves and good riffs, but there was some happy edge to it. And when (Davis) walked into the room, it went dark and goth. Basically, during the first song, to audition in the rehearsal room, he started freaking the hell out [laughs]. You couldn’t hear his voice, but you felt chills all over your body, and it was instantly like, “Oh my God, yeah – he’s the one.”
