1. (ROCK ON) THROUGH THE NIGHT
Alright!
Tonight's the night
We come here to play
Turn up the music
I've got something to say
I've been out on the streets
I'm back on my feet
Tear up this town
And I'll be on my way
Raise your hands you know I've got to see
Everybody screams

ROCK ON THROUGH THE NIGHT
We're gonna let the music rock
Come on and ROCK ON THROUGH THE NIGHT
That's what we came here for

The stakes are high
And so am I
So turn out the lights
And reach for the sky
It feels alright
Rocking through the night
Full speed ahead
I'm coming right at you
Raise your hands you know I've got to see
Everybody screams

ROCK ON THROUGH THE NIGHT
We're gonna let the music rock
Come on and ROCK ON THROUGH THE NIGHT
That's what we came here for

Once and awhile
You've got to get away
And lose your mind
Cause there's no better way
It's all rock and roll
I'm in total control
You've paid your price
Now I won't let you go
Won't let you go

(Guitar Solo)

ROCK ON THROUGH THE NIGHT
We're gonna let the music rock
ROCK ON THROUGH THE NIGHT
We're gonna let the music rock
ROCK ON THROUGH THE NIGHT
That's what we came here for
ROCK ON THROUGH THE NIGHT
Oh yeah



2. KILLER MACHINE
She stands in the dark, on a cold Friday night
Her body glows, from the fire in her eyes
She looks so wicked, with legs long and lean
Tuned to perfection, the best that you have seen

She's all that I wanted
All that I need
My lady's a killer
She's a killer machine
She's a killer machine

Walk from a distance, her shadow will appear
The roar of the engine, is all that you will hear
This lady's mine, she's beaten all the best
One touch from her hand, you'll burn like all the rest

She's all that I wanted
All that I need
My lady's a killer
She's a killer machine
She's a killer machine
Hard, fast, and mean
My lady's a killer machine

Once you fire her up
You know you can't cool her down
She's always running hot
She's the fastest, the fastest ride in town

(Guitar Solo)

She's all that I wanted
All that I need
My lady's a killer
She's a killer machine
She's a killer machine
Hard, fast, and mean
My lady's a killer machine



3. ON YOUR FEET
I've been messed with
Been pushed around
Been knocked down to my knees
I've been kicked
Been shoved
But you ain't got the best of me
And now you know
We are the show
You people all came to see
I'm into rocking
No stopping
So come on make a stand with me

All night long
Get ready to move
All night long
Calling to you

ON YOUR FEET
Stand and be counted
ON YOUR FEET
One and all
ON YOUR FEET
Everybody
ON YOUR FEET
Rise or take a fall

I've been accused
I've been abused
Now it's time to set the story straight
I'm on the top
I never stop
Don't matter what the critics say
You like it loud
You like it hard
Cause that's the way it's got to be
I'm into rocking
No stopping
So come on make a stand with me

All night long
Get ready to move
All night long
Calling to you

ON YOUR FEET
Stand and be counted
ON YOUR FEET
One and all
ON YOUR FEET
Everybody
ON YOUR FEET
Rise or take a fall

(Guitar Solo)

ON YOUR FEET
ON YOUR FEET
ON YOUR FEET
Stand and be counted
ON YOUR FEET
One and all
ON YOUR FEET
Everybody
ON YOUR FEET
Rise or take a fall

ON YOUR FEET, stand and be counted
ON YOUR FEET, one and all
ON YOUR FEET



4. WORLD WAR
You better get ready
And hold on tight
There's trouble ahead
We're in for a fight
It's one on one
And one for all
United we stand
Devided we fall
The bloodiest sight
That you ever saw
We're imposing
Martial Law
All together
The poor and rich
Up in smoke
With the flick of the switch

When I look into the sky
The fire's burning in the night
I know it's not my time to die
I won't give in, without a fight

We're in a WORLD WAR
Fighting for our lives
It's a WORLD WAR
In 1994

So grab your guns
And shoot to kill
Death and destruction
Right on your heels
The time has come
To bury your nation
Say your Prayers
It's your salvation

When I look into the sky
The fire's burning in the night
I know it's not my time to die
I won't give in, without a fight

We're in a WORLD WAR
Fighting for our lives
It's a WORLD WAR
In 1994

No, No I'll never let go
They'll never take me

(Guitar Solo)

You'll never take me alive
When I look up to the sky
The fire's burning in the night
(We're in a WORLD WAR)
It's not my time to die
(It's a WORLD WAR)
In 1994

We're in a WORLD WAR
Fighting for our lives
It's a WORLD WAR
In 1994

(WORLD WAR) It's not our time to die
(We're in a WORLD WAR) In 1994

We're in a WORLD WAR
Fighting for our lives
It's a WORLD WAR
In 1994



5. HOT DESERT NIGHT
The desert sky, in the middle of the sunrise
A new day begins, I look out to the horizon
I see the valley across this barren land
The snake is stalking, striking what it can
Over the mountain, and through the canyon wall
Under your souls, hungry for survival
The storm grows near, it's all that you can hear
Dark clouds that form, they're bringing in the night
All at once, I see you standing near
Reach out to touch you, but you were never there

The wind is blowing on a HOT DESERT NIGHT
I hear the thunder as I look into the light
Full moon is rising on a HOT DESERT NIGHT
My love is burning on a HOT DESERT NIGHT

I had a vision, a dream about this place
An endless journey, to fill this empty space
I need to find you, and know that you'll be there
Out in the desert, be there if you dare
All at once, I see you standing near
Reach out to touch you, but you were never there

The wind is blowing on a HOT DESERT NIGHT
I hear the thunder as I look into the light
Full moon is rising on a HOT DESERT NIGHT
My love is burning on a HOT DESERT NIGHT

(Guitar Solo)

The wind is blowing on a HOT DESERT NIGHT
I hear the thunder as I look into the light
Full moon is rising on a HOT DESERT NIGHT
My love is burning on a HOT DESERT NIGHT

The wind is blowing on a HOT DESERT NIGHT
I hear the thunder as I look into the light
Full moon is rising on a HOT DESERT NIGHT
My love is burning on a HOT DESERT NIGHT



6. UNDER MY GUN
I'm on the run
I'm out of the reigns
I'm on the loose
I'm out of the gates to fight
I'm ready to rock tonight
You've seen it coming
Don't you cross my path
I've got ya now
You're under my wrath
You can't fight it
You can't hide it
Nowhere to run

You're UNDER MY GUN
You're UNDER MY GUN
You're gonna die young
Cause you're UNDER MY GUN

I pull the trigger
You begin to flash
Your body's gone
There's nothing but tracks, in sight
You're gonna get burned tonight
You think you're bad
You're not so tough
No matter what
It's gonna get real rough
Can't fight it
Can't hide it
Nowhere to run

You're UNDER MY GUN
You're UNDER MY GUN
You're gonna die young
Cause you're UNDER MY GUN

Nowhere to run
And nowhere to hide
Nowhere to run
And nowhere to hide
You're UNDER MY GUN

(Guitar Solo)

You're UNDER MY GUN
You're UNDER MY GUN
You're gonna die young




7. ICONOCLAST Instrumental



ROCK AND ROLL MANIAC
I'm out on the road
I'm flying high
Shooting star
Across the sky
I feel a surge running through my veins
It's a mild injection
Not any the same
I'm going crazy
I'm out of my head
I can't stop rocking
I can't fight it
I get excited
It's gonna drive me insane

I'm a ROCK AND ROLL MANIAC
With a six string gun I'm about to attack
ROCK AND ROLL MANIAC
I live for today and I never, never
Look back
I'm not looking back

Get out of my way
Rocking 'til dawn
Playing hard
All night long
Feels so good I'm ready to go
Looking for action I'm losing control
I'm going crazy
I'm out of my head
I can't stop rocking
I can't fight it
I get excited
It's gonna drive me insane

I'm a ROCK AND ROLL MANIAC
With a six string gun I'm about to attack
ROCK AND ROLL MANIAC
I live for today and I never, never
Look back
I'm not looking back

I can't stop rocking
I can't stop
I can't stop rocking
(Guitar Solo)

I'm a ROCK AND ROLL MANIAC
With a six string gun I'm about to attack
ROCK AND ROLL MANIAC
I live for today and I never look back
I'm a ROCK AND ROLL MANIAC
I'm going crazy
ROCK AND ROLL MANIAC
I'm going out of my head
I'm a ROCK AND ROLL MANIAC
I'm going crazy
Rock and roll
NO, I'm never looking back



I'M ALIVE
Sometimes I wonder what it's like to be so far gone
When all that really matters is if that we grow strong
I've got a storm raging through me like a force about to blow
No time to touch me I'm ready to blow
Too hot to rock, so get ready to roll

I'M ALIVE, and I'm higher than hell
I'M ALIVE, cause I'm under a spell
I'M ALIVE, so alive

Now you try to tell me, you think I might have gone too far
The people call me crazy, say I'll never be a star
See my body burning, the heat is driving me insane
No time to touch me I'm ready to blow
Too hot to rock, so get ready to roll

I'M ALIVE, and I'm higher than hell
I'M ALIVE, cause I'm under a spell
I'M ALIVE, so alive

(Guitar Solo)

I'M ALIVE, and I'm higher than hell
I'M ALIVE, cause I'm under a spell
I'M ALIVE, so alive
I'M ALIVE
I'll never die
I'M ALIVE
I'll never die
I'M ALIVE
So alive
I'M ALIVE



IT'S UP TO YOU
You are the reason
I still survive
You keep believing
I never lie
Those late night parties
They drag me to
Can't think of leaving
Without seeing you

This song I'm singing
I wrote for you
It's your descision
What you're gonna,
What you're gonna do

IT"S UP TO YOU
What you're gonna do
IT'S UP TO YOU
What you're gonna do

When day turns to evening
I will be there
There's no time for cheating
So throw away your tears
Lets face it honey
We both really care
Just keep believing
And don't be scared

This song I'm singing
I wrote for you
It's your descision
What you're gonna,
What you're gonna do

You know IT'S UP TO YOU
What you're gonna do
IT'S UP TO YOU
What you're gonna do

(Guitar Solo)

This song I'm singing
I wrote for you
It's your descision
What you're gonna,
What you're gonna do

You know IT'S UP TO YOU
What you're gonna do
IT'S UP TO YOU
What you're gonna do
