| Breaking The Law |
There I was completely wasting Out of work and down All inside it's so frustrating As I drift from town to town Feel as though nobody cares if I live or die So I might as well begin To put some action in my life Breaking the law Breaking the law Breaking the law Breaking the law So much for the golden future I can't even start I've had every promise broken There's anger in my heart You don't know what it's like You don't have a clue If you did you'd find yourselves Doing the same thing too Breaking the law Breaking the law Breaking the law Breaking the law You don't know what it's like Breaking the law Breaking the law Breaking the law Breaking the law |
| Rapid Fire |
Pounding the world Like a battering ram Forging the furnace For the final grand slam Chopping away at the source Soon the course will be done Leaving a trail of destruction That's second to none Hammering anvils Screaming muscle and might Shattering blows Crashing row beating fright Fast devastating and Desolisating the curse Blasting the cannons of Truth through each man Of this earth Wielding the axe Comes the one culmination That's always seemed Certain to bring down the curtain on greed Sifting the good from the bad It's the age for the rage of the Dogs which must fall to the just And be free Now grate for the vandals Who trampled and sampled Till this place conditioned Brought forth demolition to war The slipping and sliding Corrosive subsiding That withered and waned Till the world seemed all drained Fills the bay Pounding the world Like a battering ram Forging the furnace For the final grand slam Chopping away at the source soon the course will be done Leaving a trail of destruction That's second to none Second to none |
| Metal Gods |
We've taken too much for granted And all the time it had grown From the techno seeds we first planted Evolved a mind of its' own Marching in the streets Dragging iron feet Laser beaming hearts Ripping men apart From off I've seen my perfection Where we could do as we please In secrecy this infection Was speading like a disease Hiding underground Knowing we'd be found Caring for our lives Reaped by robots scythes Metal Gods, Metal Gods Metal Gods, metal Gods Machines are taking all over With mankind in their command In time they'd like to discover How they can make their demand Better be the slaves To their wicked ways But meeting with our death Engulfed in molten breath |
| Grinder |
Never straight and narrow I won't keep in time Tend to bend the arrow out of line Been inclined to wander Off the beaten track That's where there's thunder and the wind shouts back Grinder - looking for the meat Grinder - wants you to eat Got no use for routine I shiver at the thought Open skies on my scene this boy won't get caught Refuse to bait the man trap Be left to set the snare I love to have my sight capped everywhere Grinder - looking for meat Grinder - wants you to eat I have my licence It came with birth For self reliance of this earth You take the bullet On which my name Was etched to file me in your game Day of independence Stamped us like a brand On the necks of millions to the land As the mighty eagle I need room to breath Witness from the treadmill I take my leave Grinder - looking for meat Grinder - wants you to eat Grinder - looking for meat Grinder - wants you to eat |
| United |
Look around They're movin' in Hold the ground When they begin We can do it We can do it And if they wanna they can try But they'll never get near And they can keep out of here Gonna keep on drivin' never stop Chorus United, united United we stand United we stand one and all So give me hope Don't give in Make a stand We're gonna win We can do it We can do it And if they wanna they can try But they'll never get near And they can get out of here Gonna keep on drivin' never stop Chorus United, united United we stand United we stand one and all So give me hope Don't give in So give me love Chorus - repeat 4 times |
| Living After Midnight |
Living after midnight Rockin' to the dawn Lovin' till the morning Then I'm gone, I'm gone I took the city 'bout 1am Loaded, loaded I'm all geared up to score again Loaded, loaded I come alive in a neon light That's when I make my moves right Loving after midnight Rockin' till the dawn Lovin' till the mornin' Then I'm gone, i'm gone I'm aiming for you I'm gonna floor you My body's coming all night long! Got gleaming chrome reflectin' steel Loaded, loaded Ready to take on every deal Loaded, loaded My pulse is racin', i'm hot to take This motor's revved up fit to break Chorus The air's electric, sparking power Loaded, loaded I'm getting harder by the hour Loaded, loaded I set my sights and then home in The joint starts flyin' when I begin Chorus |
| You Don't Have To Be Old To Be Wise |
I've had enough of being programmed And told what I oughta do Let's get one thing straight I'll choose my fate It's got nothing to do with you The years are flying by And it's time I got high Took a sample of the good things in life This is the chance i'm gonna take Gonna kick out trouble and strife I've grown sick and tired of the same old lies Might look a little young So what's wrong You don't have to be old to be wise Now I don't care if the people stare And accuse me of going mad Just get a long hard look into the mirror Then tell me who's been had The way things are going I won't get a show in Don't seem a lot of time Not to me So it's off with the ties No compromise What it takes What it's like to be free I've grown sick and tired of the same old lies Might look a little young So what's wrong You don't have to be old to be wise Solo All right i'm down on the reins Holding the rope Live and let live from now on And as the free hand Alone a free man I got a world of my own I go as I please Fend for myself Bull out all the stops Throw the dice Out on my own Gonna go it alone When I need it i'll ask for advice You don't have to be old to be wise - repeat |
| The Rage |
From a fire ball we came Cross sea and mountain We were drinking beauty with our eyes We were given all To make our own Let us be left alone Lay the tasks and pay the price Everything suffice Crashed and bolted all we craved After every whim What a state we're in Is pain better than the grave? Well we talk with other men We see red and then Deep inside our blood begins to boil Like a tiger in the cage We begin to shake with rage |
| Steeler |
Catch the flame now Eye to eye Don't let chances pass you by Always someone at your back Biding their time for attack Check for decoys Stay sharp edged Double crosser's get your head Carpet baggers bluff and strike Kiss of judas spider like Waiting like jackels To sneak up and trick you Wolves in sheeps clothing So deft in consoling Lurking in shadows They pounce least expected When they come to They'll have gone right through you Tricksters guilters Play their game Slight of handers All the same Masquerader in his lair Wants to tangle in your hair |
