Death Tone (R.Friedman/J.DeMaio)
Ridin' on two wheels
Put my shades on
Now, you were sittin' home
Hear me calling
My social workers
Unemployment checks
Now, you were sittin' home
Hear me calling
Death tone
Chains hooked on my heels
Sittin' in leather
Ridin' on steel
Hair blows in the wind
I give some square the finger
Now he won't look again, no he won't
And I got sent to Nam
I went to the big house
You just worked at job
Can't you hear my death tone
Hear me calling
Can't you hear my death tone
Hear me ride
On into the night
Pull along side
If you're looking for a fight, yeah !
Got me on a chain
Keeps me out of jail
So the paper prints his name, yes it does, and he likes it
Run out next week
It won't be very long
'Til I'm back on the streets again
And I got sent to Nam
I went to the big house
You just worked a job
Can't you hear my death tone
Hear me calling
Can't you hear my death tone
Hear me ride
On into the night
Pull along side
If you're looking for a fight
Death tone
Gonna ride on my death tone
Yes I am
I'm gonna ride on you baby ! Oh !
Metal Daze (J.DeMaio)
I hear the sound
Baby I was born to play music
Heavy metal, metal daze
Living like there's no tomorrow
Heavy metal, metal daze
So mister D. J.
Heavy metal, metal daze
In a metal way
I feel the power
Rolling off the stage
'Cause only one thing
Really sets me free
Heavy metal
Loud as it can be
I am a man with a screaming guitar
There's a light in the middle of the stage
In a minute I'll be wearing it all
I don't know another way of living
Baby I don't really care
Give me a pair of jeans, and a riff that´s mean
And girls that love to share
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Yeah,Curry says we're all on the edge
He says man you´re really graphic
This bands a social wedge
Well, we all got hearts made of metal
And our blood is hot molten rock
And if I don't hear the sound of metal
I go into shock !
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal
Play just one for me
You know the one
With the crashin' and the screams
'Cause only one thing
Really sets me free
Heavy metal
Loud as it can be
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal
Loud as it can be
Fast Taker (R.Friedman/J.DeMaio)
Mama´s having problems
I sing Yeah
No, I don't mind them saying
Only sixteen
Oh yeah, he won't see me
Now do it right with music
Mama is having problems
A long time ago
No I don't mind them saying
Always comes to me
Your daddy´s been a drinker
Since 1943
They tell you I'm a loser
'Cause I like bein free
But truth is in the mirror
It´s what they never see
Long time ago
You tried to tell me son
Keep our dauther home
I said no no, no no
That you should be praying
For me, fast taker
Right here's where I'm staying
Life's a game I play
For keeps, fast taker,bed breaker, love maker
Take it away
A woman not a girl
Old enough
For a trip around the world
Pick you up on Friday
When daddy goes to sleep
Bring you back on Sunday
When he's watching "Billy Graham" on T.V.
Then you learn how to use it
All night, fast taker
Right here's where I'm staying
Life's a game I play
For peace, fast taker,bed breaker, love maker
Take it away
Always come to me
Your daddy´s been a drinker
Since 1943
They tell you I'm a loser
'Cause I like bein free
But truth is in the mirror
It´s what they never see
You tried to tell me son
Keep our dauther home
I said no no, no no
That you should be praying
For me, fast taker
Right here's where I'm staying
Life's a game I play
For keeps, fast taker, bed breaker, love maker
Take it away
Shell Shock (R.Friedman/J.DeMaio)
I don't know
Well, there's no charge for the haircut
Now I'm a ranger, not a stranger
But if they tell you that I've lost my mind
And if they tell you that I'm M.I.A.
Feels funny riding in my car
Now it's over and the homeland's safe
And the bullets come free
My Uncle Sam send a letter, said:
He's got a mission for me
And I live in Saigon
We've got a team of special forces
And we deliver napalm
Baby it's not gone just a little hard to find
About the time this letter gets home
I'll be gone, gone, yeah gone
Think a little less about me each day
'Cause if I ever get back
I'll be shell shocked, whoa
Shell shocked, yeah
Used to drive a tank and shoot a B.A.R.
I know I'm home
But I feel gone,gone, yeah gone
Got a purple heart to show the world I'm brave
The businessmen sat home
Well I got shell shocked, whoa
Shell shocked, whoa
Shell shock
Shell shock
Shell shock
Manowar (R.Friedman/J.DeMaio)
We met on English ground
We called the high command
Soon the time would come
Oooh, Manowar
Our fight will never end
Look sharp
Now the time has come
Oooh, Manowar
Manowar
In a backstage room
We heard the sound
And we all knew
What we had to do
Requested leave to make a stand
And in the field we grew
And we all knew
For us to fight,
Destination
Now in sight
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
So we called your party sense
To raise your hands
And take our stand
When duty calls
Where we march
Cities fall
And the strong survive
And take our side
For us to fight
Target waiting
In our sight
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Manowar
Born to live forever more
Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Manowar
Dark Avenger (R.Friedman/J.DeMaio)
He broke the laws of the elders
Bound on the shoreline
These bones may be broken
From the floor of the ocean
And in the world above
Narration:
And they placed in his hands
And to carry him up on his journey
And on that night
Burning, death, destruction
No one can escape me
Burning, death, destruction
I spare that land of servants
Burning, death, destruction
So they plucked out his eye
Took his land and fortune
Left him to die
Left for the tide
Sees his life, blood leaving
Circling lower, the vultures fly
But the spirit can't die
And the Gods see his anguish
And give him a sign
The ship of the lost souls rise
And they take him where no one sleeps while the undead cry
Where no one sleeps while the undead cry
The elders sing
On his land they live
Let deaths bell ring
He was met at the gate of Hades
By the Guardian of the Lost Souls
The Keeper of the Unavenged
And He did say to him
Let you not pass abandon
Return to the world
From once you came
And seek payment
Not only for thy known anguish
But vindicate the souls
Of the Unavenged
A sword
Made for him
Called Vengeance
Forged in brimstone
And tempered
By the woeful tears of the Unavenged
Back to the upper world
They brought forth
Their demon horse
Called Black Death
A grim steed
So fiercely might
And black in colour
That he could stand as one with the darkness
Save from his burning eyes
of crimson fire
They rode up from Hell
The pounding of his hooves
Did clap like thunder !
Raping the daughters and wives
In blood I take my payment
In full with their lives
On Black Death I ride
When kissed by the sword of Vengeance
Your head lays there by your side
I take the lives of all that I once knew
The torn flesh of a slow death waits for you
Raping the daughters and wives
In blood I take my payment
In full with their lives
My wake is slow dead there
I take their wives and daughters
They stand there watching, watching
Hoping to get my life
But when I'm through they know they must pay
Raping the daughters and wives
In blood I take my payment
In full with their lives
With their lives
With their lives
With their lives
William´s Tale (Instrumental) (Rossini)
Battle Hymn (R.Friedman/J.DeMaio)
By moonlight we ride
Kill, kill
Gone are the days when freedom shone
Victory, victory
To the battle we ride
Kill, kill
Sound the charge into glory ride
Kill, kill
Ten thousand side by side
With swords drawn held high
Our whips and armour shine
Hail to thee our infantry
Still brave beyond the grave
All sworn the eternal vow
The time to strike is now
Kill, kill
Now blood and steel meet bone
In the light of the battle's way
The sands of time will shake
How proud our soldiers stand
With mace and chain in hand
Sound of charge into glory ride
Over the top of the vanquished pride
Victory, victory
We crossed a starlit sky
No space no time
We'll catch the wind
Strange losses, men died
We crossed a starlit sky
And still no space and time
We'll catch the wind
Kill, kill
Over the top of their vanquished pride
By moonlight we ride
Ten thousand side by side
Kill, kill
