Lyrics for American Psycho as interpreted by HoldURBreath

American Psycho Lyrics
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, Oh-Oh-Oh, whoa
Go
Inside a Wall Street mind a psycho lurks
Lines of cocaine cut in Hell
Obsessive hands gently grab your neck
Compulsively you'll die... I hate people

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, Oh-Oh-Oh, whoa-oh
Struggling to breathe, go

The sweet asphyxiation and dismemberment
Sex puts me in the mood to make you die
Obsessive hands gently grab your neck
Look into sick eyes... I hate people

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, Oh-Oh-Oh, whoa-oh
Struggling to breathe

Go - A machine of penalty
Go - The sweet insanity
Go - Fade to black tranquility
Go - You're looking through the eyes of a psycho, whoa-oh

An American Psycho, whoa-oh
An American Psycho, whoa-oh
An American Psycho

-Psycho-

Inside a Wall Street mind a psycho lurks
Lines of cocaine cut in Hell
Obsessive hands gently grab your neck
Compulsively you'll die... I hate people

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, Oh-Oh-Oh, whoa-oh
Struggling to breathe

Go - A machine of penalty
Go - The sweet insanity
Go - Fade to black tranquility
Go - You're looking through the eyes of a psycho, whoa-oh

An American Psycho, whoa-oh
An American Psycho, whoa-oh
An American Psycho

Psycho, psycho, psycho, psycho

DIE NEWFITS! GAH!! I really don't like this song, or any of the songs that the Newfits have put out. Jerry needs to just let it go and at least try to regain some of the dignity that the Misfits name once stood for... Buuut it won't happen. So BLAH. Die.

It does not refer to american psycho, jesus christ. This album was out before the movie, course if your only in junior high you wouldnt know that. And I agree they arent the same as they were with Danzig, but that doesnt mean they suck. If they had a different name, ill bet most of you guys would like them.

It doesnt refer to the movie, it refers to the book. The "Wall street mind a psycho lurks" is a bit too much to be a coincidence....

The movie was based on the book, my mistake. I am not as familiar with new Misfits as I am pre-1983. Although, I have no problem with either.

One of the only decent newfits songs out there. I respect Jerry's attempt to bring the band to life but they defeinitly shouldn't be called the Misfits. Hell, this shit is better than project 1950. Its time for the "Misfits" to break it off and call it quits before they put out more horid records like "American Psycho" and "Famous Monsters".

I love this song, and I love this album. Famous Monsters was a bit of a letdown mostly, save for Helena, Scream, Saturday Night and occassionally Descending Angel. Bit American Psycho is so amazingly brutal.

This movie DOES refer to the American Psycho story of Patrick Bateman. But yes, this album was out before the movie... But this song is about the american psycho BOOK!!! And i got into The Misfits through a best friend and this song was the 1st song i heard. GRAVES WIPES THE HELL'S FLOOR WITH DANZIG!!!! The band just contiuned to develop skills and speed since graves came along.
Don't get me wrong Last Caress, Astro-zombies and Bullet were all good, but the newfits were twice as fast twice as fast and twice as attractive3 to listen to (due to more melodies in the songs).

Thank you all to those who knew it was referring to the book. But the book was banned in America for a while, so I can see how someone wouldn't know the movie was based on a book. Good book, you should all read it.

Ok This is a great song, as is all of the Misfits' post Danzig work. True, no one can ever replace Glenn, but the Misfits are still a great band. I think you guys are being serious assholes for hating on Jerry and all that. They still make great music! That's jsut my opinion.

Like pretty much every Misfits song ever, this is about a piece of horror culture (this time it's the book "American Psycho", but usually they're on old B-movies). Ok, can we collectively SHUT THE FUCK UP about the misfits? Yes, they're not the same as they were with danzig. Do you really have to say that here? Every god-damned song says "newfits suck!" or "Newfits ROCK!" Post that elsewhere, this is for song meanings. Please.
