FAITH NO MORE – Epic / Edge of the World (live) | Da Show (1990)

Faith No More’s performances of “Epic” and “Edge of the World” during their 1990 appearance on “Da Show”, a music TV program hosted by Dr. Dre and Ed Lover, are often remembered as iconic moments from the band’s early success following the release of their breakthrough album, The Real Thing. This album propelled them into global recognition, largely thanks to the popularity of “Epic,” a track that blended rap, funk, metal, and alternative rock.

EPIC

[Verse 1] Can you feel it, see it, hear it today? If you can’t, then it doesn’t matter anyway You will never understand it, ’cause it happens too fast And it feels so good, it’s like walking on glass It’s so cool, it’s so hip, it’s alright It’s so groovy, it’s outta sight You can touch it, smell it, taste it, so sweet But it makes no difference ’cause it knocks you off your feet

[Chorus] You want it all, but you can’t have it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse 2] It’s cryin’, bleedin’, lyin’ on the floor So you lay down on it and you do it some more You’ve got to share it, so you dare it Then you bare it and you tear it

[Chorus] You want it all, but you can’t have it (Yeah, yeah, yeah) It’s in your face, but you can’t grab it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Verse 3] It’s alive, afraid, a lie, a sin It’s magic, it’s tragic, it’s a loss, it’s a win It’s dark, it’s moist, it’s a bitter pain It’s sad it happened, and it’s a shame See upcoming rock shows Get tickets for your favorite artists You might also like I Can Do It With a Broken Heart Taylor Swift But Daddy I Love Him Taylor Swift So Long, London Taylor Swift [Chorus] You want it all, but you can’t have it (Yeah, yeah, yeah) It’s in your face, but you can’t grab it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Bridge] What is it? It’s it What is it? It’s it What is it? It’s it What is it? It’s it

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge] What is it? It’s it What is it? It’s it What is it? It’s it What is it?

[Chorus] You want it all, but you can’t have it (Yeah, yeah, yeah) It’s in your face, but you can’t grab it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Outro] It’s it! What is it? It’s it! What is it? It’s it! What is it? It’s it! (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

EDGE OF THE WORLD

Come here, my love I’ll tell you a secret Come closer, now I want you to believe it

I’ll tell you all the things You want to hear Don’t worry, baby There’s nothing to fear

Hey, little girl Would you like some candy? Look into my eyes I’ve seen it all Hand in hand Together we fall

We’ll sing and dance And we’ll find romance And we’ll stroll to the edge of the world

Come sit right down Lay your head on my shoulder It’s not the point That I’m forty years older

You can trust me I’m no criminal But I’d kill my mother To be with you, be with you, be with you, be with you

We’ll sing and dance And we’ll find romance And we’ll stroll to the edge of the world

Give me a smile Let me see those pearlies I’ll do anything For the little girlies
