[Verse 1]
I'm sitting in a magic hat with smoke and mirrors
And tire-rubber fires watch me disappear, yeah
What made it slow you down sucking on a ball and chain
Another motherfucker goes down the drain, yeah

[Chorus]
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Just add it up to the hot rod death toll
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Just add it up to the hot rod death toll

[Verse 2]
Sick in the head, sick in the mouth
Can't hear a word you say, not a bit, and I don't give a shit, yeah
Got the glass, got the steel, I got everything
All I need is your head on a stake, yeah

[Chorus]
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Just add it up (to the hot rod death toll)
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Just add it up (to the hot rod death toll)
Hard-headed fuck you all
(Hard-headed)
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Hard-headed fuck you all
Just add it up to the hot rod death toll
(To the hot rod death toll, hot rod death toll
Hot rod death toll, hot rod death toll)

[Outro]
Go!
Go!

One of the biggest rock bands out of Seattle, Soundgarden was formed in 1984 by singer and rhythm guitarist Chris Cornell, lead guitarist Kim Thayil, and bassist Hiro Yamamoto. Matt Cameron became the band’s full-time drummer in 1986, while bassist Ben Shepherd became a permanent replacement for Yamamoto in 1990. While one of the creators of the Grunge alternative rock and the first to sign to a major label, they only rose to stardom once the genre was popularized by Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains in the early 90s. After achieving great success with 1994’s Superunknown, the band decided to call it quits three years later due to internal squabbles. Eventually they reunited in 2010, releasing new album King Animal two years later. Frontman Chris Cornell committed suicide in a Detroit hotel room on May 17, 2017. He was 52 years old.
