But by 1992's Wasted in America, heavy metal had become commercially passé and Columbia dropped them soon after its release.Jizzy Pearl used himself in a legendary publicity stunt to help album sales. This stunt, with the help of a few others, included Jizzy successfully erecting a cross on the Hollywood Sign and positioned himself on it. Love/Hate moved to the Caliber label and released Let's Rumble in May 1994, an album much more raw than their previous material featuring Darren Housholder on Guitar replacing Jon E. Love. Another label switch, to Mayhem Records, resulted in October 1995's I'm Not Happy featuring the return of Jon E. Love. In 1997 the band released Livin' off Layla. During the Livin' Off Layla sessions Jizzy Pearl left for the first time breifly replaced my Mark Torien of Bulletboys. 1999 saw the release of Let's Eat with Jizzy back on vocals and Joey Gold on Drums

Give it up
Time's up
Give it up
I been lookin' at you all night
Now what do I get
You think you're so fine
It's all around
Time's up
Give it up
Time's up
Give it up
I don't need no education
I don't want no rehabilitation
I don't need to act kind
Up time
You were so sweet when you were in junior high
But that was a long time ago-o-o-o
Now you're out on the streets
With bikers and rock n' rollers
Time's up
Give it up
Time's up
Give it up
The sand's run out of your hourglass
Now you've got to make a decision--time's up
There was a girl and we knew her name
She tried to forget but we all remembered her
Yesteryear her yesterday
Up time down time it's all around time
Kill for thrill time it's today
Time's up
Give it up
Time's up
Give it up
Time's up
Give it up
Time's up
Give it up
