Slick Idiot's music is more than club-worthy, with pulsating beats and swift synthetic sounds, but it also contains a solid industrial metal foundation with thrashing innovation by Günter's unique guitar stylings and En Esch's funky beats and gruff vocals. Add to it, soul, provided by vocalist Erica Dilanjian and the additional programming and live drumming of Gregg Ziemba, and Slick Idiot provides many points of sonic titillation.
Since its inception Slick Idiot has released 3 studio albums ("DickNity", "Screwtinized" and "Sucksess") along with 2 remix albums ("ReDickulous" and "xScrewciating"). The band followed each release with a major U.S. tour and recently completed the "In The Flesh Tour" to promote the new release of "Sucksess", which saw the band play 44 cities from coast to coast.
Mind over Matter
Slick Idiot Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And i will rock you, baby, harder than i rocked before.
And what I learned so far, I put down as weight for me,
You better choose me baby, I'm the best you've ever seen.
And I'm hungry, baby, more hungry than before,
You can't stop me, baby, no one stopped me before.
And I'm not joking, baby, I'm a lean sweet machine, yeah,
No one tops me, baby, that's right, it's going to be my way.
Yeah, I know my Schtick, you are a messed up kid,
Where there is heaven there is hell, and I'm not feeling it.
Its mind over matter, things are getting better,
Give a little blood, and show me what you got.
Its mind over matter, my days are getting better,
Show me all you got, and give a little blood.
I'm a prostitute of my own kind,
I don't suck dick if I don't like.
Tired of rejection, baby? Got rejected way before.
Can you feel your anger, baby ? we were treated so unfair.
I'm at peace to do you, baby, revelation, fun for you...
Wanna know the reason why, i'm the one who rectifies ?
It's mind over matter, things are getting better,
Give a little blood, and show me what you got.
It's mind over matter, my days are getting better,
Show me all you got, and give a little blood.
Yeah i want it all, but you keep me small,
In the end you get nothing, you get nothing at all.
Yeah, i know my schtick, you are a messed up kid,
Where there is heaven there is hell, i'm not feeling it.
It's mind over matter, things are getting better,
Give a little blood, and show me what you got.
It's mind over matter, my days are getting better,
Show me all you got, and give a little blood.
I'm a prostitute of my own kind,
I don't suck dick if i don't like.
