Biografia:
A origem do Hoodoo Gurus começou do fruto de um movimento punk que havia na cidade de Perth. The Victims and Scientists foi a primeira banda do vocalista e guitarrista, Dave Faulkner. Quando a banda acabou, ele ficou um tempo nos Estados Unidos, até que ele e mais seus ex-companheiros de conjunto, Roddy e James, resolveram se mudar para Sydney. Lá eles formaram os “Le Hoodoo Gurus”, em janeiro de 1981, que além de Faulker, era composto pelo vocalista e guitarrista Kimble Rendall (ex-XL-Capris)

[Intro]
A A C C G G E E x2
[Verse 1]
A
My edge is keen and I've honed my skill
C G E E
I've got nerves of steel and an iron will
My skin is bronze, my trim is chrome
C G E E
Climb aboard - I'll drive you home
A
I'm a silver tongued devil with a heart of gold
C G E E
When I was made they broke the mold
N.C.
My blood runs hot, like molten lead
C G E E
Pump you full - I'm gonna knock you dead
A A C C G G E E x2
[Verse 2]
A
I don't mince words, I spit 'em out
C G E E
I won't leave room for any doubt
Get to the point, stop splitting hair
C G E E
That ain't getting either of us anywhere
A
Sometimes it's better to be blunt
C G E E
But is this some kind of publicity stunt?
A
So far you've whet my appetite
C G E E
Do you wanna grind with me tonight?
A A C C G G E E x2
Me tonight
[Chorus]
D C G/B C
Axegrinder, I'm not famous for my tact
D C G/B C
Axegrinder, I've gotta sharpen up my act
D C G/B C
Axegrinder, try and see things through my eyes
D C B A
Everything and everyone gets cut back down to size
[Verse 3]
A
On the brink of who knows what?
C G E E
We've gotta strike while the iron's hot
A
I can hold your hand, try to guide you through
C G E E
But I can't make your moves for you
[Bridge]
A/E G/D A/E G/D A/E G/D x4
[Chorus]
D C G/B C

D C G/B C
Axegrinder
D C D C
Axegrinder, try and see things through my eyes
D C B A
Everything and everyone gets cut back down to size
[Verse 4]
A C G E E
Swing my blade, that's how it's done
C G E E
Don't stop me now, I've only just begun
A
I was told when I was young
N.C.
I wouldn't work in an iron lung
N.C.
Now I've learned a trick of two
N.C.
I'm working up a sweat for you
A A C C G G E E
A A C C G G E E
Sweat for you
A A C C G G E E
For you
A A C C G G E E
You
[Chorus]
