Well...I googled it...and one of the sites that popped up said this... What is Steal Your Face? Well, if you've ever needed a site where you can pick a photo of a friend or enemy and have their face transplanted onto some dodgy picture, then this is the site for you. Coz that's what it does.
Steal your face This line was lifted out as the title of the ill-fated album issued under duress. Since the cover of the album featured the logo designed by Stanley Owsley with the grinning skull and lightning bolt inside the circle, that logo has since been identified primarily as the "steal your face" logo, perhaps incorrectly.
"He's Gone" Words by Robert Hunter; music by Jerry Garcia Copyright Ice Nine Publishing; used by permission Rat in a drain ditch Caught on a limb You know better but I know him Like I told you What I said Steal your face right off you head Now he's Gone Lord he's gone Like a steam locomotive rolling down the track He's gone He's gone and nothing's gonna bring him back He's gone Nine mile skid on a ten mile ride Hot as a pistol but cool inside Cat on a tin roof Dogs in a pile Nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile Now he's gone Lord he's gone Like a steam locomotive rolling down the track He's gone He's gone and nothing's gonna bring him back He's gone Going where the wind don't blow so strange Maybe on some high cold mountain range Lost one round but the price wasn't anything Knife in a back and more of the same Same old rat in a drain ditch Out on a limb You know better but I know him Now he's gone Lord he's gone Like a steam locomotive rolling down the track He's gone He's gone and nothin's gonna bring him back He's gone....
