Fu Manchu are a riff-based band, so I'll give you the riffs and lyrics
and let you work out the order for yourself (there really is no point
wet nursing you through the song verbatim as it repeats so much)
The key to playing these tracks live is the density and volume-
at least it was when they played Nottingham the other week- if you're
Playing solo get your rhythm humbuckers balanced on maximum, don't use
single-coil pickups if you have them- urgh! ;-)
If there are two of you, guitarist 1 should follow the above setting,
but turn up your input volume so it distorts it a little too much for
the picking section, guitarist 2 should use a crisper treble setting to
create that dense, dirgy feel

Lyrics (Not official)
Verse1
Since I was before, with an evil grin
Better break yourself, straight away I'll win
Cold power slide, seperates them all
Never thought you'd brake, unapproachable
Chorus
Evil eye has shaped his plan, we're racing on (x2)
Verse2
Puts to the floor, half-way through the turn
As we ride up high, do a stop and burn
Wheels of his feet, hits a back-street wall
Evil eye has signalled, unapproachable
Chorus
Evil eye has shaped his plan, we're racing on (x2)
Bridge
Evil eye will fall (x3)
Outro
Evil eye
Unapproachable
Unapproachable
