Don't Piss Me Off
David Lee Roth · Other Songs - David Lee Roth
And though I wasn't true to ya, baby don't get me wrong
Cuz satisfyin' you is the thing that gets me off
I do a lot of thinkin', some I shouldn't think about
Just a little somethin', you know I can't live without
Gotta fever that's burnin', you just can't slow me down
Don't piss me off, don't cool me down
I've been lied to, from town to town
You got somethin' that just blows my top
Hey now baby well you drivin' me crazy
When it comes to your love now I ain't a bit lazy
Baby don't you worry, you ain't gotta play no fool
Just a little lovin' is all I need from you
Never met nobody 'makes me feel the way you do
Don't piss me off, don't cool me down
I've been lied to, from town to town
You got somethin' that just blows my top
Hey now baby well you drivin' me crazy
When it comes to your love now I ain't a bit lazy
Talkin' dirty, dressin' clean, dancin' nasty by the record machine
Do the walk, love to ball, just one look I believe that's all
Little girl loves to boogie woogie, looks so fine like some sweet suger
Destination is on the floor, give it up just a little bit more
Hey baby can I be excused, I can't take no more
Don't piss me off, don't cool me down
I've been lied to, from town to town
You got somethin' that just blows my top
Hey now baby well you drivin' me crazy
When it comes to your love now I ain't a bit lazy
Don't piss me off, don't cool me down
I've been lied to, from town to town
I can't take no more
You're not that kind of girl
I can't take no more
Don't Piss Me Off
David Lee Roth's "Don't Piss Me Off" stands as a quintessential anthem of the late 1980s hard rock era, defined by its blistering tempo and Roth's signature theatrical delivery. Released during the height of his solo career, the track exemplifies the high-energy, party-rock sound that characterized his discography and cemented his status as a frontman of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal's American counterpart. The song relies on a driving rhythm section and soaring vocals to create an infectious, crowd-pleasing atmosphere typical of Roth's live performances and studio recordings from that period. It remains a staple of his catalog, often associated with the raucous, hedonistic themes prevalent in his work, serving as a reminder of the raw, unfiltered rock energy that made him an enduring icon of the genre.
