Lyrics


1. SHOCK WAVES

I need it, we need it, we all need to shake
I want it, you want it, whatever it takes
I’m ready to rock are you ready to roll
We all like the same kicks, I want you to know

[Chorus]
Shock waves
Shock waves
Shock waves
Shock waves

I really hate disco, I don’t like New Wave
I don’t like cold music, I need Hard Rock waves
The louder the better, this music is fine
It’s turning, it’s burning, it strikes all of the time

[Chorus](x2)

We all like sensation, we all need the same
We’ll give you some shock waves, it’s part of our game
We’re in a maximum loudness and maximum speed
It’s burning, it’s turning, that’s all what we need

[Chorus](x2)

Some critics are crazy, some say it’s a rage
I’m sure they are stupid, their opinion’s insane
Sooner or later they’ll see we are right
When we play our music, we’ll make them go wild

[Chorus]


2. SCARECROW

I’m used to be a loner, since the day I was born
Neither sisters nor brothers, I got no friends to call
I never knew what love was,
but I’ve been trying again and again
and I found out the answer,
since you became my friend

I’m used to be a loser, heading for nowhere
I’m searching for a victim, I’ve got my troubles to share
I need a friend to lean on,
I’ve been seeking again and again
I need a chance to prove myself,
I wanna show that I’m a man

I am a scarecrow
Chasing birds away
I am a scarecrow
Until the day you came
I am a scarecrow
Lonely in the morning
I am a scarecrow
There’s no one here who can hear me call

All I need is your loving, I need you by my side
Ever since I’ve known you, you made the wrong go right
I was poor and ugly, but you gave me hope again and again
Life is now worth living, I want you to stay my friend

I was a scarecrow
Frozen in a winternight
I was a scarecrow
Burning in the sunlight
I was a scarecrow
Wasted by loneliness
I was a scarecrow
Watching all the birds fly away


3. IN THE NAME OF THE LAW

Hangman, hangman, don’t play too rough with me
Sooner or later revenge will be sweet
You’re guilty and crazy, a killer on the run
I can’t let you go my friend, you’re a danger for us all
Judgeman, judgeman, don’t be so hard on me
Your verdict will lock me up, I wanna be free
You’re a dealer, a stealer, an anti-social man
You’re biking and fighting, the leader of the gang

[Chorus]
Can’t you see what you’re doing to me
In the name of the law
Don’t you know my revenge will be sweet
In the name of the law

Help me, help me, I wanna get out of here
Between these walls, I’m going mad, I’m struck down by fear
The electric chair, the guillotine, they are both for you
The gas chamber, the hanging tree, anything you choose

[Chorus]

Lawman, lawman, I think you’re wrong with me
I’m innocent and ignorant, I’m not what I appear to be
You’re a rocker, a roller, a motorcycle man
A mistreater, a cheater, a heavy metal fan

Can you tell what crimes I have done
In the name of the law
There’s no need to say where you’ve been wrong
In the name of the law

In the name of
In the name of the law
In the name of
In the name of the law
In the name of
In the name of the law
In the name of
In the name of the

In the name of the law (x12)

In the name of
In the name of the law

(Instrumental)


5. BLOOD ON THE CHAINS

They call it shot by mistake
Or a “self defence case”
So it’s easy to be excused
But they’ve knocked you down
In the jail of your town
You’re tortured and abused
They represent the law
With an iron claw
They are stupid and insane
We are computerized,
We are terrified
By their chronic and violent raids

[Chorus]
Never trust a cop when he’s in your sight
You’re always wrong when you’re right
When they’re dressed in uniform,
They all feel so mighty strong
They are all trained to smash our brains
Blood on the chains
Blood on the chains
Blood on the chains
Blood on the chains

When they kick in your face
They erase every trace
Before they send you back on the streets
There’s no proof, no claim,
Just a number, no name
It’s perfect authority

[Chorus]

It’s always the same
You’re the ball in their game
When they lose self control
With violation they protect the nation
They are masters in their role

[Chorus]


6. RICHTER SCALE 12

Can you stand it, can you dig it
Can you feel our force
When it’s too loud, you’d better get out
I don’t wanna see you anymore
Feel the thunder and the power
Of the music we play
I hope you live it, come and enjoy it
We are all in a trance

[Chorus]
What is the force ?
Richter Scale 12
What’s the result
Complete destruction
What is the score
Richter Scale 12
When we’re on stage

The earth is shaking, rocks are breaking
We cause panic and death
Fast as lightning, always striking
Hot as fire in hell

[Chorus](x2)

Don’t stop moving, we’re all losing
Every sense of control
It makes you dizzy, it makes you crazy
It makes your blood run cold
Screaming metal, smoking back lines
Burning guitars and drums
Anxious parents, excited audience
The sound of a thousand shooting guns

What is the score
Richter Scale 12
What is the score
Richter Scale 12
What is the score
Richter Scale 12


7. IN THE EYE OF MY GUN

You gave me something I never knew before
But I wasted it all, what a fool I was
You were the one I was waiting for
But I was too late to understand

[Chorus]
But regret comes too late
You couldn’t stand to wait
That’s why you let me down so cold
I want you, I need you
You have been the only one
To live with, to make love to,
You’re in the eye of my gun
Don’t leave me, I’ll miss you,
You’re still my number one
I want you, I still got you
In the eye of my gun
My love gun

Love at first sight, it was understood
Every move you made, made me feel so good
I have done all, to get you by my side
It turned out wrong, but it could be right

[Chorus]

I hate the day you turned your back on me
This rotten feeling will never let me free
You broke my heart and now I’m cut in two
I am too sensitive to stand losing you

But regret comes too late
You couldn’t stand to wait
That’s why you let me down so cold

You’re in the eye of my gun
Eye of my gun


8. TIME BOMB

I can feel it coming
See the people running
We are living on a time bomb
We are all in danger now

Struck down by the crisis
The situation is hopeless
Bankruptcy and corruption
The end of our land is near

[Chorus]
Why should we stand all this
We’re living in a wilderness
Why must we pay their trash
Cos we’re just the working class
I’m sure there’s no way out
Unemployment is all around
Now we must bleed and sweat
For all the faults they made
Time bomb
Time bomb
Time bomb
Time bomb

Who can save our nation
Who can stop the frustrations
Elections are useless
We are ready for the fall

[Chorus]

I don’t believe in politicians
I don’t believe in religions
We are living on a time bomb
We are condemned to explode

[Chorus]

Time bomb (x7)
