U2's "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" lyrics from Batman Forever
HMTMKMKM was a left over from the recording sessions of the Zooropa album as it was considered to be too 'gothic'.
It ultimately ended up a big hit on the Batman Forever Soundtrack in 1995. As what happens with most songs picked up for movies, the song's lyrics has nothing to do with Batman...
In BP Fallon's book 'U2 Faraway So Close' Bono suggests the lyrics are about "being in a rock 'n' roll band I suppose, being a star, whatever that is."
U2's Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me song lyrics:
You don't know how you took it
You just know what you got
Oh Lordy you've been stealing
From the thieves and you got caught
In the headlights of a stretch car
You're a star
Dressing like your sister
Living like a tart
They don't know what you're doing
Babe, it must be art
You're a headache in a suitcase
You're a star
Oh no, don't be shy
You don't have to go blind
Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me
You don't know how you got here
You just know you want out
Believing in yourself
Almost as much as you doubt
You're a big smash
You wear it like a rash
Star
Oh no, don't be shy
It takes a crowd to cry
Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me
They want you to be Jesus
They'll go down on one knee
But they'll want their money back
If you're alive at thirty-three
And you're turning tricks
With your crucifix
You're a star
Oh child, of course you're not shy,
You don't have to deny love
Hold me, thrill me, kiss me, kill me
