Lyrics


1. NO NONSENSE

Tell me what you´re thinkin´
Tell me what you´re doin´
Tell me who you´re seein´ all night long
Who d´ya think you´re kiddin´
Who d´ya think you´re foolin´
Who d´ya think you´re cheatin´ with your song?

Tell me please
I´m down on my knees
Tell me, tell me please...
I´m beggin´ you please,
Oi!

Why d´ya think it´s funny when you spend my money?
When you leave me honey, I get sore
When we´re out cruisin´ I know it´s for a bruisin´
Yeah I´m headin´ for a bruisin´ but I want more

Tell me what you´re thinkin´
Tell me what you´re doin´
Tell me who you´re seein´ all night long
Who d´ya think you´re kiddin´
Who d´ya think you´re foolin´
Who d´ya think you´re cheatin´ with your song?


2. SMOKIN' VALVES

Got me an electric guitar
I´ll show you where the good times are
Whip it up...play all day
I don´t care what the neighbours say

I love to rock, I love to get down low
I love to rock...rock ´n´ roll

Got me some smokin´ valves
And you can hear me for a hundred miles
Ten speakers gone in a year
I got a grin from ear to ear

Got no time for women or booze...
I ain´t got no time to lose
I got the loudest axe in town...
Look at me, a rock and roll clown


3. LONG THE BELL WILL TOLL

Way down inside we know we cannot hide
From what we know is true
Life itself is you

They don´t believe in you
But they need you now

The politician cries, the businessman lies
They try to make their gains
They multiply their plains

Long the bell will toll
And each and every soul will rise from the grave
As free man or slave


4. JIRMAKENYERUT

(Instrumental)


5. THE SMALL HOURS

Look hard unto the darkness
And you will see
Just call my name and I'll be there

You cannot touch me
You would not dare
I am the chill that's in the air

[Chorus]
And I try to get through to you
In my own special way
As the barriers crumble
At the end of the day

Dark rivers are flowing
Back into the past
You are the fish for which I cast

But what of the future
What is to be
As the rivers flow into the sea

[Chorus]

take not for granted
Powers I bear
Don't step into the demon's lair

Time is an illusion
Life is but time
Steep is the mountain which we climb


6. FORCEDOWN BREAKDOWN

Suspension complete ain´t no exaggeration
Price of living causes frustration

Sure, you can kick me when I´m down
I´m sitting duck here on the ground

No jobs, no money
You´re out on your ass
Life´s sure empty...bottom of the glass

Out on the street you better watch for your safety
A new lease of life, hey!
That´s what you gave me


7. HEAVY METAL MANIA

Inside the power cage
I can feel the music of my age
It´s paranoid...first degree
Tellin´ me that I´m not free

I´ve got Heavy Metal music in my blood
And I´d like to give it to you if I could

As I lie in the shroud of darkness
The wings of light remove the veil
It´s Heavy, Heavy, Heavy
Heavy Metal Mania all the way
Rock ´n roll...far too slow
So the adrenaline just doesn´t flow
Where is the power, where is the glory?
Heavy Metal is my story


8. THE NIGHTCOMERS

On the other side jesters keep their watch
Fifteen million lives ready to be lost
We come from the Northern Headlands
The warriors of ice
Come to cleanse the world
Destroy the human sacrifice

And the living dead will swarm upon this earth
The multitude will gather to punish every breath
And in the devil´s gallery
A feast will be prepared
For those of us who dared...

"We will forever haunt you"
The torrid masses scream
Damnation, hate and torture...
The order of the dream
As angels flee in terror
The sun begins to freeze
And every soul on earth
Is broken by the breeze


9. LOVIN' FEELIN' DANGER

I hear what you´re saying when you shout in my ear
Get straight to the point now...
Better make yourself clear
You´ve kicked me out before
But I alway come back
You take it to the limit...
Now you´re ready to crack

You always take more than nothin´ baby
You take the lot, you take the lot
Wanna know somethin´ honey
Wanna know what I got?
Lovin´ feelin´ danger

The dole is gonna catch up now
So ma daddy did say
No turning back again now
Gonna do it my way
Crime pays more than plenty
Don´t believe what you read
Peeping through your little window...
Yes I´ll take what I need


10. DEATH OR GLORY

I get so bored
Going nowhere...pissed off with life
Don't need no girl to hold me...
I only love my knife
When it's night
And I'm out on my own on the street
There's murder on my mind

I don't hate authority...
They know I'm not all bad
I know that nobody loves me...
It don't make me sad
I'm gonna stand up
To the ones who bring me down...
Murder on my mind

I can feel it now
It grows stronger every day
And my hatred grows
More and more in every way

Sing a song of death and glory
Sing a song of spite
Sing a song of good and evil
I'm gonna win my fight
I just wanna flush the shit from the street...
Murder on my mind
