Stay Hungry
|
|
Are you feeling the fire, are you ready to explode? Are your dreams and desires riding down an open road? I'm like a runaway, a heart without a home Others can laugh and play I'll fight for every inch I take, I'm desperate to the bone Stay hungry, feel the fire Stay hungry, don't explode Stay hungry, with desire Stay hungry, you're alone Be the hunter and the hunted, keep your target in your sight Don't be side tracked or shunted, let pretenders feel your bite And if you start to slide never show you're weak Don't feel you've got to hide Remember what you're fighting for, remember what you seek Stay hungry, feel the fire Stay hungry, don't explode Stay hungry, with desire Stay hungry, you're alone If your fire is faded and you can't feel it no more If you're tired and overrated, let me show you to the door Expect no sympathy, there's none to be had Open your eyes and see There's no room for the wannabees, the has beens or the bad Stay hungry, feel the fire Stay hungry, don't explode Stay hungry, with desire Stay hungry, you're alone |

We're Not Gonna Take It
|
|
We're not gonna take it No, we ain't gonna take it We're not gonna take it anymore We've got the right to choose and there ain't no way we'll lose it This is our life, this is our song We'll fight the powers that be just, don't pick our destiny 'cause You don't know us, you don't belong We're not gonna take it No, we ain't gonna take it We're not gonna take it anymore Oh, you're so condescending, your gall is never ending We don't want nothin', not a thing, from you Your life is trite and jaded, boring and confiscated If that's your best, your best won't do We're right, yeah We're free, yeah We'll fight, yeah You'll see, yeah We're not gonna take it No, we ain't gonna take it We're not gonna take it anymore We're right, yeah We're free, yeah We'll fight, yeah You'll see, yeah We're not gonna take it No, we ain't gonna take it We're not gonna take it anymore |

Burn in Hell
|
|
Welcome to the abandoned land Come on in child, take my hand Here there's no work or play, only one bill to pay There's just five words to say as you go down, down, down You're gonna burn in hell Oh, burn in hell You can't believe all the things I've done wrong in my life Without even trying I've lived on the edge of a knife Well, I've played with fire, but I don't want to get myself burned To thine own self be true, so I think that it's time for a turn Before I burn in hell Oh, burn in hell Take a good look in your heart, tell me what do you see It's black and it's dark, now is that how you want it to be? It's up to you, what you do will decide your own fate Make your choice now for tomorrow may be far too late And then you'll burn in hell Hear no evil, don't you See no evil, don't you (oh, burn in hell) Lay no evil down on me (you're gonna burn in hell) Speak no evil, don't you Think no evil, don't you (oh, burn in hell) Play with evil, 'cause I'm free Hear no evil, don't you See no evil, don't you Lay no evil down on me (you're gonna burn in hell) Speak no evil, don't you Think no evil, don't you Play with evil, 'cause I'm free (you're gonna burn in hell) Hear no evil, don't you See no evil, don't you (oh, burn in hell) Lay no evil down on me (you're gonna burn in hell) Speak no evil, don't you Think no evil, don't you (oh, burn in hell) Play with evil, 'cause I'm free You're gonna burn in hell Hear no evil, don't you See no evil, don't you (oh, burn in hell) Lay no evil down on me |

Horror-Teria (The Beginning)
|
|
a. Captain Howdy Oh, it's so nice to see you all inside my dreamy little world And it's so nice to be with all you lovely little boys and girls Make yourselves comfortable, my place is so devine Don't you think I'm wonderful? Say yes! You're on my time Stay away From Captain Howdy Stay away From Captain Howdy Don't try to leave, the doors are locked and only I have got the key Forget the windows, they're nailed shut and boarded up so you can't see You'll love the light show, oh, I'm sure you'll think it's swell When they go off, you're welcome to my living hell Stay away From Captain Howdy Stay away From Captain Howdy Come here, my sweet Let me help you with that There, that's better I'm overjoyed at all the games I'm playing here with you today But I'm so sad the party's over and we can no longer play You think you're going home to your own little bed But that's impossible, you can't sleep when you're dead Stay away From Captain Howdy Stay away From Captain Howdy b. Street Justice It happened in the broad daylight So unexpected came the knife A child's scream sliced through the air But no one came or seemed to care, no The man's description did little good A local stranger from the neighborhood Those little kids, oh, he left behind With their mangled lives and their tortured minds Since he didn't seem to care, then don't you think it's only fair Call for street justice Let no mercy show Call for street justice Don't let him go The man was caught and brought before a judge Who had just returned from a three drink lunch His lawyer screamed "you must set him free" And off he went on a technicality Since the law don't seem to care, then don't you think it's only fair Call for street justice Why should parents cry? Call for street justice How many have to die? The mob assembled, smoke filled the air And marched in anger to do what's fair To bring to justice this souless thing And show the others what evil brings Now before you shake your head, think if it was your child instead Call for street justice, tell me what you'd do Call for street justice, pray this isn't true Call for street justice, why should parents cry Call for street justice, how many have to die Call for street justice, when slime escapes the law Call for street justice, we'll even up the score Call for street justice, let no mercy show Call for street justice, please don't let him go |

I Wanna Rock
|
|
I wanna rock! Turn it down you say But all I got to say to you is time and time again I say, "no!" No! No, no, no, no, no! Tell me not to play Well, all I got to say to when you tell me not to play I say, "no!" No! No, no, no, no, no! So, if you ask me why I like the way I play it There's only one thing I can say to you I wanna rock! There's a feelin' that I get from nothin' else and there ain't nothin' in the world that makes me go! Go! Go, go, go, go, go! Turn the power up I've waited for so long so I could hear my favorite song so, let's go! Go! Go, go, go, go, go! When it's like this I feel the music shootin' through me There's nothin' else that I would rather do I wanna rock! |

The Price
|
|
How long I have wanted this dream to come true And as it approaches, I can't believe I'm through I've tried, oh, how I've tried For a life, yes a life, I thought I knew Oh, it's the price we gotta pay and all the games we gotta play Makes me wonder if it's worth it to carry on 'Cause it's a game we gotta lose, though it's a life we gotta choose And the price is our own life until it's done Time seems to have frozen but the mind can be fooled As the days pass I discover, destiny just can't be ruled Hard times, oh, hard times For the prize, yes the prize, I thought I knew Oh, it's the price we gotta pay and all the games we gotta play Makes me wonder if it's worth it to carry on 'Cause it's a game we gotta lose, though it's a life we gotta choose And the price is our own life until it's done |

Don't Let Me Down
|
|
Look at you, you're my dream Are you all that you seem? Now you have what I need and what I believe Don't tell me you'll lose it, 'cause I'll have to leave Don't let me down What do I have to give Until you let me live? You're all that I work for but that's not enough Do I have to die too to show you my stuff? Well, I give you my best So, why don't you understand? I'm passing the biggest test So, don't cry, lend a hand Don't let me down Head held high, heart in hand Flesh and blood, make a man If that disappoints you, well, what can I say? I don't want you to hurt, I just want to play Don't let me down |

The Beast
|
|
You can hear the thunder long before the storm But you can't hear the lion when he stalks his prey He's moving like a shadow, creeping up on you And like a siren's call he's gonna have his way You'd better run, forget your pride Don't make a stand, just step aside If you don't have what it takes, don't try to play, you'll lose your stakes Remember this at least It's the nature of the beast It's the nature of the beast You won't hear a footstep comin' up on you Movin' like a snake he's in complete control This killer knows his business, he is the predator You are his only target, you're his only goal What will you say, what will you do? Your wildest nightmare's comin' true There is nothing you can say, no way to change, he won't delay This cain will have his feast It's the nature of the beast It's the nature of the beast If you play you're bound to lose, don't roll the dice, don't turn the screw Just listen to the priest It's the nature of the beast It's the nature of the beast |

S.M.F.
|
|
Black sheep of the family, nothing like the rest Separate from the others, failing all their tests Can't they see you're different, so hungry and so lean You're a walking wonder, you're a metal machine Look and you'll see you're alot like me You're an S.M.F. Caught up in their worries and tomorrow's dream Missing all the living, milk without the cream They think you're so foolish, living for today Caring just what you think, not what others say Join with us, oh, how they'll scream and fuss You're an S.M.F. We're the ones that live it, we're all really free And if they think that we're sick then sick is what we'll be Scream it loud, Know what you are, be proud You're an S.M.F. |
