Chicks on Speed are a female electrogroup which got its origins in Munich, formed in 1997 after the members had met through the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich. Chicks on Speed's core members consist of Alex Murray-Leslie (originally Nicki Murray-Leslie; born September 1, 1970, Australia), Melissa Logan (born September 9, 1970, USA) and Kiki Moorse (the daughter of the late film-maker George Moorse; born March 23, 1967, Germany). Around Chicks on Speed there is grouped a large and ever-changing collective of musicians, producers, graphic artists, designers, film and video makers, and so on. Though usually considered part of such musical genres as electroclash, actually Chicks on Speed started as a multidisciplinary art group, who applied punk-inspired DIY ethic to performance art, collage graphics and home-made fashion (they have created their own stage costumes with cheap and recycled material such as plastic bags and gaffa tape, for example). They originally got their name when they earned some extra money at art galleries by hanging paintings to the walls, and someone quipped that they worked like "chicks on speed".

twinkle twinkle titty-twister
you tricked your mum
and killed your mister
she's got flowers in her hair
virgin victim
it's not fair
dancing queen
spinning top
twist and spin
spin and drop
heroin addict
girl next door
who only made it
to the floor
lolly-polly
poster girl
pastel colours suit you well
good night, sweet dreams
go to hell
the pope, he says
you really smell
twinkle twinkle titty-twister
bubblebath
and then the toaster
nowhere left
but on the poster
i know you already told me
you couldn't take it any more
the centre of attention
after while it's such a bore
i left you to your own devices
you crashed the system
this is your crisis
on the poster you look so good
in reality, i wish you could
be here me like the girl next door
without the show or your head in the floor
