Up here in space
I'm looking down on you
My lasers trace
Everything you do
You think you've private lives, think nothing of the kind!
There is no true escape: I'm watching all the time.
I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
Keep the country clean!
I'm elected electric spy
I'm protective electric eye
Always in focus,
You can't feel my stare
I zoom into you,
But you don't know I'm there.
I take a pride in probing all your secret moves
My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove
I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
Keep the country clean!
I'm elected electric spy
I'm protective electric eye
Electric eye... in the sky...
Feel my stare... always there...
There's nothing you can do about it
Develop and expose
I feed upon your every thought
And so my power grows
I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
Keep the country clean
I'm elected electric spy
I'm protected electric eye
I'm elected electric spy
I'm elected protective, detective, Electric Eye!
RIDING ON THE WIND
Shooting for the stars
Cruise the speed of light
Glowing god of Mars
Body burning bright
Well I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind!
Yes I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind!
Tearing up through life
Million miles an hour!
Blinding all in sight:
Surging rush of power!
Well, I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind!
Yes, I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind!
Ridin' on the wind! Ridin' on the wind!
Ridin' on the wind! RIDIN' ON THE WIND!
Thunderbolt from hell,
Shattering aloud!
Screaming! Demons yell,
Bursting through the clouds!
Well I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind!
Yes I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind!
DESERT PLAINS
Full moon is rising
The sky is black
I need your call: I'm coming back
The road is straight cast
Wind's in my eyes
The engine roars between my thighs
From desert plains I bring you love...
From desert plains I bring you love!
Wild mountain thunder
Echoes my quest
My body aches but I'll not rest
Quartz light to guide me
Till sunrise leads
My passion screams, my heart it bleeds
From desert plains I bring you love...
From desert plains I bring you love!
Then in the distance
I see you stand
On the horizon you raise your hand
In burning rubber
I end my quest
You fall into my arms at last
From desert plains I bring you love...
From desert plains I bring you love!
METAL GODS
We've taken too much for granted
And all the time it had grown
From 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 spreading like a disease
Hiding underground
Knowing we'd be found
Fearing for our lives
Reaped by robot's 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
THE SENTINEL
Along deserted avenues
Steam begins to rise
The figures primed and ready
Prepared for quick surprise
He's watchin' for a sign
His life is on the line
Sworn to avenge
Condemn to hell
Tempt not the blade
All fear the Sentinel
Dogs whine in the alleys
Smoke is on the wind
From deep inside its empty shell
A cathedral bell begins
Sending out its toll
A storm begins to grow
Sworn to avenge
Condemn to hell
Tempt not the blade
All fear the Sentinel
Amidst the upturned burned-out cars
The challengers await
And in their fists clutch iron bars
With which to seal his fate
Across his chest is scabbards rest
The rows of throwing knives
Whose razor points in challenged tests
Have finished many lives
Now facing one another
The stand-off eats at time
Then all at once a silence falls
As the bell ceases its chime
Upon this sign the challengers
With shrieks and cries rush forth
The knives fly out like bullets
Upon their deadly course
Screams of pain and agony
Rent the silent air
Amidst the dying bodies
Blood runs everywhere
The figure stands expressionless
Impassive and alone
Unmoved by this victory
And the seeds of death he's sown
Sworn to avenge
Condemn to hell
Tempt not the blade
All fear the Sentinel
VICTIM OF CHANGES
Whiskey woman don't you know that you are drivin' me insane
The liquor you give stems your will to live and gets right to my brain
Don't you know you're driving me insane
You're tryin' to find your way through life
You're tryin' to get some new direction
Another woman got her man
She won't find no new connection
Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through
Take another look around, you're not goin' anywhere
You've realized you're gettin' old, and no one seems to care
You're tryin' to find your way again
You're tryin' to find some new...
Another woman's got her man
But she won't find a new...
Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through
You been foolin' with some hot guy
I want to know why is it, why?
Get up! Get out! You know you really blew it
I've had enough, I've had enough, good God, pluck me.
Once she was wonderful
Once she was fine
Once she was beautiful
Once she was mine...she was mine
Now change has come over her body,
She doesn't see me anymore
Now change has come over her body,
She doesn't see me anymore
Changes, changes, changes, changes
Victim of changes!
THE RIPPER
You're in for surprise
You're in for a shock
In London town streets
When there's darkness and fog
When you least expect me
And you turn your back
I'll attack
I smile when I'm sneaking
Through shadows by the wall
I laugh when I'm creeping
But you won't hear me at all
All hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripper
You'll soon shake with fear
Never knowing if I'm near
I'm sly and I'm shameless
Nocturnal and nameless
Except for "The Ripper"
Or if you like "Jack The Knife"
Any back alley street
Is where we'll probably meet
Underneath a gas lamp
Where the air's cold and damp
I'm a nasty surprise
I'm a devil in disguise
I'm a footstep at night
I'm a scream of the fright
All hear my warning
Never turn your back
On the ripper...the ripper....the ripper
THE GREEN MANALISHI
Now when the day goes to sleep and the full moon looks,
And the night is so black that the darkness cooks,
And you come creeping around, making me do things I
don't want to do.
Can't believe that she needs my love so bad.
Come sneaking around, trying to drive me mad.
Busting in all my dreams, making me see things I don't want to see.
'Cause you're the Green Manalishi with the two-pronged crown
All night dragging us up, or you're bringing us down
Just taking my love, and slip away
Leaving me here, trying to keep from following you
DIAMONDS AND RUST
I'll be damned, here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual,
It's just that the moon is full,
And you decided to call
And here I sit, hand on the telephone
Hearing the voice I'd known
A couple of light years ago
Headed straight for a fall
But we both know what memories can bring
They bring Diamonds and Rust
Yes we both know what memories can bring
They bring Diamonds and Rust
Now I see you standing with brown leaves all around and snow in your hair
Now we're smiling out the window of the crummy hotel over Washington Square
Our breath comes in white clouds, mingles and hangs in the air
Speaking strictly for me we both could've died then and there
Now you're telling me you're not nostalgic
Then give me another word for it
You were so good with words
And at keeping things vague
Cause I need some of that vagueness now
It's all come back too clearly, yes, I love you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust, I've already paid
But we both know what memories can bring
They bring Diamonds and Rust
Yes we both know what memories can bring
They bring Diamonds and Rust
Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust
Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust
Don't want no more Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust
Diamonds, Diamonds and Rust
BREAKING THE LAW
There I was completely wasted, 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
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
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
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
ANOTHER THING COMING
One life, I'm gonna live it up!
I'm taking flight, I said i'll never get enough.
Stand tall: I'm young and kinda proud!
I'm on top, as long as the music's loud!
If you think I'll sit around as the world goes by,
You're thinking like a fool cause it's a case of do or die.
Out there is a fortune, waiting to be had.
You think I'll let it go, you're mad:
You've got another thing comin'!
You've got another thing comin'!
That's right, here's where the talking ends.
Well listen, this night there'll be some action spent!
Drive hard: I'm calling all the shots!
I got an ace card, coming down on the rocks.
If you think I'll sit around, while you chip away my brain,
Listen, I ain't fooling, and you'd better think again!
Out there is a fortune waitin' to be had
You think I'll let it go you're mad:
You got another thing comin'!
You got another thing comin'!
In this world, we're living in, we have our share of sorrow.
Answer now is: don't give in! Aim for a new tomorrow!
Oh so hot! No time to take a rest, yeah!
Act tough! Ain't room for second best!
Real strong: get me some security.
Hey, I'm a big smash, I'm going for infinity, yeah!
If you think I'll sit around as the world goes by,
You're thinking like a fool cause it's a case of do or die.
Out there is a fortune, waiting to be had.
You think I'll let it go, you're mad:
You got another thing comin'!
You got another thing comin'!
Coming at you!
OUT IN THE COLD
I'm layin' awake at night
I can't get you out of my mind
All I can hear is my heart beat
And a voice in the dark of some kind
Where are you now
The fears are comin' back to me once again
Oh, I wish you were here
Takin' good care of me
I want you
I feel as though I'm out in the cold
Out in the cold
Hear me calling
Cold
Out in the cold
Please rescue me
I know it was you I hurt
I didn't mean to hurt you
So much to forgive and forget
Can't take anymore of this hurt
On no, Oh no
There's so many things I regret
Where are you now
The fears are comin' back to me once again
Oh, I wish you were here
Takin' good care of me
I want you
I feel as though I'm out in the cold
Shut me out
Out in the cold
Where are you now
Hear me calling
I need you I'm so cold
Can't you hear my heart beat
Out in the cold
Please rescue me
Give me a chance baby
There's nothing I wouldn't do to make it alright
Just for one more chance baby
I need all your lovin' tonight
Where are you now
The fears are comin' back to me once again
Oh, I wish you were here
Takin' good care of me
I want you
I feel as though I'm out in the cold
Shut me out
Out in the cold
Where are you now
Hear me calling
I need you I'm so cold
Can't you hear my heart beat
Out in the cold
Please rescue me
Why don't you rescue me
Cold
Shut me out
Out in the cold
Where are you now
Hear me calling
I need you I'm so cold
Can't you hear my heart beat
Out in the cold
Please rescue me
LIVING AFTER MIDNIGHT
Living after midnight, rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' 'til the morning, then I'm gone, I'm gone
I took the city 'bout one A.M, loaded, loaded
I'm all geared up to score again, loaded, loaded
I come alive in the neon light
That's when I make my moves right
Living after midnight, rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' 'til the morning, then I'm gone, I'm gone
Got gleaming chrome, reflecting steel, loaded, loaded
Ready to take on every deal, loaded, loaded
My pulse is racing, I'm hot to take
This motor's revved up, fit to break
Living after midnight, rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' 'til the morning, then I'm gone, I'm gone
I'm aiming for ya
I'm gonna floor ya
My body's coming
All night long
The air's electric, sparkin' power, loaded, loaded
I'm getting hotter by the hour, loaded, loaded
I set my sights and then home in
The joint starts flying when I begin
Living after midnight, rockin' to the dawn
Lovin' 'til the morning, then I'm gone, I'm gone
HELL BENT FOR LEATHER
Seek him here, seek him on the highway,
Never knowing when he'll appear.
All await, engine's ticking over.
Hear the roar as they sense the fear!
Wheels! A glint of steel and a flash of light!
Screams! From a streak of fire as he strikes!
Hell bent, hell bent for leather!
Hell bent, hell bent for leather!
Black as night, faster than a shadow.
Crimson flare from a raging sun.
An exhibition, of sheer precision,
Yet no one knows from where he comes!
Fools! Self destructs cannot take that crown!
Dreams! Crash one by one to the ground!
Hell bent, hell bent for leather
Hell bent, hell bent for leather
There's many who tried to prove that they're faster
But they didn't last and they died as they tried!
There's many who tried to prove that they're faster
But they didn't last and they died as they tried!
Hell bent, hell bent for leather!
TURBO LOVER
You won't hear me, but you'll feel me
Without warning, somethings dawning, listen.
Then within your senses,
You'll know you're defenseless
How your heart beats, when you run for cover
Your cant retreat I spy like no other.
Then we race together. We can ride forever
Wrapped in horsepower, driving into fury
Changing gear I pull you tighter to me
I'm your turbo lover
Tell me there's no other
I'm your turbo lover
Better run for cover
We hold each other closer, as we shift to overdrive
And eveyrthing goes rushing by, with every nerve alive
We move so fast it seems as though we've taken to the sky
Love machines in harmony, we hear the engines cry.
I'm your turbo lover
Tell me there's no other
I'm your turbo lover
Better run for cover
On and on we're charging to the place so many seek
In perfect synchronicity of which so many speak
We feel so close to heaven in this roaring heavy load
And then in sheer abandonment, we shatter and explode.
I'm your turbo lover
Tell me there's no other
I'm your turbo lover
Better run for cover
I'm your turbo lover
Tell me there's no other
I'm your turbo lover
Better run for cover
THE GRINDER
Never straight and narrow,
I won't keep in time.
Tend to burn the arrow
Out of the line!
Been inclined to wander
Off the beaten track:
That's where there's thunder,
And the wind shouts back.
Grinder
Looking for meat!
Grinder
Wants you to eat!
Got no use for routine;
I shiver at the thought!
Open skies are my scene,
That's why I won't get caught
Refuse to bite the mantrap,
Be led 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 on this earth!
You take the bullet,
On which my name!
Was etched upon thee in your game
Day of independence
Stamped us like a brand
Round the necks of millions
To the land
As the mighty eagle
I need room to breathe!
Witness: from the treadmill
I take my leave!
WHITE BOLT OF LIGHTNING
CAME OUT OF NOWHERE
BLINDED THE DARKNESS
CREATED THE STORM
WAR IN THE HEAVENS
VENGEANCE IGNITED
TORMENT AND TEMPEST
ATTACKS LIKE A SWARM
FORGED OUT OF FLAME
FROM CHAOS TO DESTINY
BRINGER OF PAIN
FOREVER UNDYING
JUDAS IS RISING
ETERNAL BETRAYER
ICE COLD AND EVIL
TAKING NO PRISONERS
DARK PRINCE OF THE WORLD
HUMANITY TREMBLES
ENSLAVING YOU SINNERS
YOU CAN’T BEG FOR MERCY
FOR NONE WILL BE SAVED
THE BURDEN OF SIN
ECHOES THE PROPHECY
ASCENDING FROM HELL
FOREVER DESPISING
JUDAS IS RISING
THEIR FAITH IS REVEALED
DECEIVERS ARE CRYING
BY CRUCIFIED STEEL
EVANGELISING
JUDAS IS RISING
A TOUCH OF EVIL
You mesmerise slowly
Till I can't believe my eyes
Ecstasy controls me
What you give just serves me right
Without warning you're here
Like magic you appear
I taste the fear
I'm so afraid
But I still feed the flame
In the night
Come to me
You know I want your Touch of Evil
In the night
Please set me free
I can't resist a Touch of Evil
Aroused with desire
You put me in a trance
A vision of fire
I never had a chance
A dark angel of sin
Preying deep from within
Come take me in
I'm so afraid
But I still feed the flame
In the night
Come to me
You know I want your Touch of Evil
In the night
Please set me free
I can't resist a Touch of Evil
Arousing me now with a sense of desire
Possessing my soul till my body's on fire
A dark angel of sin
Preying deep from within
Come take me in
I'm so afraid
But I still feed the flame
You're possessing me
FREEWHEEL BURNING
Fast and furious
We ride the universe
To carve a road for us
That slices every curve in sight
We accelerate,
No time to hesitate
This load will detonate
Whoever would
Contend its right
Born to lead
At breakneck speed
With high octane
We're spitting flames
Freewheel burning
On we catapult
We're thrusting to the hilt
Unearthing every fault
Go headlong into any dare
We don't accept defeat
We never will retreat
We blaze with scorching heat
Obliterations everywhere
Look before you leap
Has never been the way we keep
Our road is free
Charging to the top
And never give in never stops
The Way to be
Hold on to the lead
With all your will and concede
You'll find there's life
With victory on high
Freewheel Burning
