1. ASSAULT AND BATTERY

Lives of great men all remind us we may make our lives sublime
And departing leave behind us footprints in the sands of time
Of hewn stones the sacred circle where the wizened sages sat
Let us try to remember all the times where they were at.
So your thoughts they were expecting
assault and battery on the human anatomy
Assault and battery on the human anatomy man.


2. THE GOLDEN VOID

The golden void speaks to me denying my reality
I lose my body, lose my mind, I blow like wind, flow like wine
Down a corridor of flame, will I fly so high again
Is there something wrong with me, I cannot hear, I cannot see
Down a corridor of flame
So you think the time is past, the life you lead will always last
Chaotic fusions of your soul, down below that rocky knowle
Through the clouds an open sky, the wind flows through your watering eyes
The sounds are pitched to draw you on your never ending journey on
The edge of time, the edge of time, the edge of time


3. THE WIZARD BLEW HIS HORN

The Great Hound Barked
And the world turned white
The Great Hound Sighed
And the forest died
The Wizard Blew His Horn
The Wizard Blew His Horn
The snow snake hissed
And the world turned round
The snow snake grinned
In his fine cold sin
When The Wizard Blew His Horn
The Wizard Blew His Horn
The horse wept blood
And the earth did groan
The tall horse reared
From a lake of tears
To seek a Champion
To seek a Champion
The world was bleak
And the Earth did fear
The Wizard's Horn
The magic Horn
So it screamed for a champion
It screamed for a champion
The eagle laughed
And the world grew black
It stretched giant claws
And it snatched the Law
And the Champion stirred in his sleep
The Champion stirred in his sleep

5. THE DEMENTED MAN

The questions asked but never known,
Which way I'll go
Endless circles on my mind spiraling a downward climb
which way I'll go.
The thoughts are there for you to find, but you never
know which way I'll go
Those flashing lights are warning me
But ever bidding voices see
You're caught in a web of emptiness
The tales told the path you tread
Does it lead into your head
Or back to a world of emptiness
Smiling faces watching me
Helping hands just wait and see
Which way I'll go
White walls stretching in the sun
Is it here that I begun?
Which way I'll go
Faintly voices plead with me, ever asking ever see
which way I'll go.


6. MAGNU

Magnu, horse with golden mane, I want your help yet once again,
Walk not the earth but fly through space as lightning flash or thunders race
Swift as the arrow from the bow, come to me so that no one can know.
Sunbeams are my shafts to kill all men who dare imagine ill,
Deceit that fears the light of day fly from the glory of my ray,
Good minds open and take new light until we diminish by the reign of night
A burning brand was seen to fall, it lit the darkness of the hall,
The flying hoofbeats circling in, come to me and let us spin.


7. STANDING AT THE EDGE

We're standing on the edge
The edge of time
And it is dark, so dark on the edge of time
And we're tired of making love
We are the lost, we are the ravaged
We are the unkind
We are the soldiers at the edge of time
And we're tired of making love
Where are our children
Where are our fathers
Where is our desire
And it's cold, so cold on the edge of time
Where is our joy
Where is our hope
Where is our fire
And it's cold, so cold on the edge of time
We are the the lost, we are the forgotten
We are the undying
We are the soldiers at the edge of time
The veterans of a thousand psychic wars
We are ths soldiers at the edge of time
The victims of the savage truth
We are the soldiers at the edge of time
And we're tired of making love


8. SPIRAL GALAXY 28948

[Instrumental]


9. WARRIORS

We are the warriors at the edge of time
We are Humanity's scythe to sweep this way and that
And cut the Enemy down as weeds
We are Humanity's spade to dig up the roots wherever they have grown
We are Humanity's fire to burn the waste to the finest ash
We are the wind which will blow the ash away
As if it had never existed
We will destroy those Enemies
But we must first know the Enemies
And the Enemies are the devils that hide in our minds
And make us less than happy
They make us less than happy
We are the warriors at the edge of time
We are the veterans of a savage truth
We are the lost
We are the last
We are the betrayed
We are the betrayed
We are the betrayed................


10. DYING SEAS

We've flotsam been, and the jetsam
In highness being, gonna get some
On the water walking, it's easy to be
Centralised we to infinity
For oursel'n only have we to thank
If fool enow are we to walk the plank
Eternity to spend in mime
Drowning in the dying seas of time
With galleon astral sailes set
And with the tide we'll sail ayet
By light propelled, Karma our guide
The shores spatial pass we beside
Past rotting hulks of culture drifting
Lost souls ghostly trawlnets lifting
Themselves against which have made crime
Drowning in the dying seas of time


11. KINGS OF SPEED

Kings of speed, kings of speed, we're gonna make you, kings of speed, kings of speed
Between you and me Mr. C, I think we have what these boys need
Step this way lads, it ain't no lie,
Try your luck and be the human fly
Kings of speed, kings of speed, we're gonna make you, kings of speed, kings of speed
We're gonna take a tasty trip on Frank and Beasley's rocket ship
The biggest attraction, the brightest star, boys
you're going fast and far
Kings of speed, kings of speed, we're gonna make you, kings of speed, kings of speed
We guarantee you the sweetest ride
You'll go so far you'll think you've died
Step this way lads it ain't no lie
Try your luck and reach the sky


12. MOTORHEAD

Sunrise wrong side of another day
Sky-high and six thousand miles away
Don't know how long I've been awake
Wound up in an amazing state
Can't get enough and you know it's the righteous stuff
Goes up like prices at Christmas, Motorhead
You can call me Motorhead alright
Brained out total amnesia
Get some mental anaesthesia
Don't move, I'll shut the door and kill the lights
If I can be wrong, I must be right
All good clean fun, have another stick of gum
Man you're looking better already, Motorhead
Remember me now, Motorhead, alright
Fourth day, five day marathon
We're moving like a parallelogram
Don't move, the morning's not a pretty sight
I guess I'll see you on the ice outside
I should be tired, and all I am is wired
I ain't felt this good for an hour
Motorhead, remember me now Motorhead
