1. Fast as a Shark
Fog in the streets
A church clock beats
Midnight - darkness all around
You better beware
You better take care
Be prepared for the shock
The time has come
And he's the one
Who's breathing down your neck
Coming from behind
Now it's your time
A loser will die
Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's on the attack
Surprise attack
Coming from the back
An expert of the deadly knack
Just take care
Just beware
Be prepared for the fight
Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's on the attack
Watch out - watch out
Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's on the attack
Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's
'cause the killer's
'cause the killer's on the attack
2. Burning
I hear a rock'n'roll guitar,
screamin' wild on the radio
Well, I know what I like,
know and it's right
Gotta take me through the night
The sound is comin' out,
it's breakin' down the doors
like an earthquake
Explodin' your brains,
Do it again, power is a natural right
I say, hey Rock'n'Roller,
power in your hands
You and your music,
right on rockin' man
You gotta hear it for a while,
it bowls you over, like dreamin'
Oh, hell what a night,
keep a rockin' on night
Hey, boy can't you see the light
I say, hey Rock'n'Roller,
power in your hands
You and your music,
make me rockin' mad
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
I say, hey Rock'n'Roller,
power in your hands
You and your music,
make me rockin' mad
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
Burning, burning, a rock'n'roll desire
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
Burning, burning, a rock'n'roll desire
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
I say, hey Rock'n'Roller,
power in your hands
Hey, rock'n'roller,
right on rockin' man
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
Burning, burning, burning just like fire
3. Son of a Bitch
Illusions and dreams
You're what you are
D'you know what I mean
I hear you clear
See in your eyes
Lying to please
It pleases to lie
You say it's your way
You say we'll make it
Right to the top
Your bullshit gets me
What have you got
I don't believe
A word you say
You make me laugh
Get outta my way
You say it's your way
Now listen to what I think of you:
Son of a bitch
Kiss my ass
Son of a bitch
Son of a bitch
You asshole
Son of a bitch
Cock suckin' motherfucker
I was right - take this: uuaah
Son of a bitch, ...
Cut you three times below the ass to short to shit
Two timing son of a dog
4. Princess of the Dawn
There's rain on the mountain
A white frost on the moors
It's an epoch of eternity
Waters touch the holy shore
It's a land of mystery
The world of unseen eyes
You can feel the shadow of a princess
She waits for you inside
The guardians of God play the pawns
Beg for mercy - hail the queen
Princess of the Dawn
In the war of the dragons
Young blood ran it's course
They fell to his blade
The knight Iron Horse
A forgotten priest
Disappearing in the haze
A chamber of vestal virgins
Twilight is her slave
The Wizard of Oz moved the pawns
Life for satan - dust to dust
Princess of the Dawn
On the day of the testament
The seventh moon was raging fire
Heaven cried for the sacrifice
The midnight sun was rising higher
The Beauty and the Beast
Lies in her royal crypt
Her kiss is bitter sweet
Death upon her lips
The Holy Grail held the pawns
Kings and bishops bow to grace
Princess of the Dawn
The guardians of God play the pawns
Beg for mercy - hail the queen
Princess of the Dawn
A new day dawns for heaven and earth
A first sunbeam is killing the night
Once upon a time for ever more
The gloom with the spirit of that Lady in White
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
5. I'm a Rebel
They say I won't make it to the top of the hill
Won't take the fruit off the tree
And ev'rybody says I'm out for the kill
They're all laughing at me
They're all laughing at me
I'm a rebel - rebel - don't you just know it
I'm a rebel - rebel
And they're all laughing at me
They say I'm a danger to the public and all
I only wish they would see
I'm just the product of a screwed up world - but they're all
They're all laughing at me
But they're all laughing at me
I'm a rebel - rebel - don't you just know it
I'm a rebel - rebel - don't you just know it
I'm a rebel - rebel
But' they're all laughing at me
Never ever was my old blue jeans
And brush the smile off my face
But still I'm a member of the
Human race - Human race - Human race - Human race
6. Breaker
Rollin' just like thunder,
tryin' to get you down
Mistreatin' ev'rythin',
if you were king he'd take your crown
If you were adead man
he'd take ya from your grave
He will not mourn for you or me
Happines he cannot feel
and love to him is so unreal
He burns like hell, he wants you dead,
alltogether hate's all he feel
Movin' like a spider' killin' off a fly
No hands, just fists, no heart, just rocks
Icicle brains
Bicycle chains
Rulin' like a tyrant,
teasin' ev'ryone around
He drags his legs, he plants his feet,
he's botherin' the ground
Here and now this man
you see plans his terror free
He's born to rule, a king to be
Icicle brains
Bicycle chains
He's a breaker
He will take ya
Destroyin' all around you
He's a breaker
He's a taker
He'd kill, maim, destroy to the end
Movin' like a spider,
preyin' on the rest
Rulin' like a tyrant,
tyrannosaurus rex
You could be a dead man,
and you won't know why
No hands, just fists,
no heart, just rocks
Icicle brains
Bicycle chains
He's a breaker
He will take ya
Destroyin' all around you
He's a breaker
He's a taker
He'd kill, maim, destroy to the end
7. Restless and Wild
They're running wild
They're on a down hill ride
Like a rebel they look for more
Too young to die
Now you know your dreams are useless
And there 're lies You'll never tell
'cause you're so
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Star born lovers
Angels in the night on a highway
They don't look back
Everybody's lost the way - yeah
The little girl wants to be an actress
Young boys are easy riders
They live so
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Stay down - time will roll on
How do you feel when the night is gone
Stay down - time will come 'round
You are the man made for highway life
For the highway life
City lights moving on
No tomorrows - no destinations
Like a wheel turning on and on
You're a man born to run
Every world that you have seen was senseless
Keep moving on there's no other way
Cause you're so
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
8. The King
Commiting crimes each day
But time has changed where he was proud
It's a far away
He took living easy, his bad reputation
Oh it was known all around
But he didn't care no, he made dirty money
Now he is down and out
Thought he knew the tricks of life
Prowling in the dark
Now he's left by all his friends
'Cause he lived apart, of them
He was a leader, malicious and violent
His fame is covered with blood
Now he's just a number, he lost all his power
The king has lost his face
Down down down, though the king lost his crown
Caught and sentenced, he was guilty
Down down down, though the king lost his crown
It's too late - far too high
Late far too high
9. Midnight Highway
Out I started, late tonight
Blinded by the light
Strangest feelin' I have know
Don't know what's wrong or right
See the people, clubs and bars
Streetlife passin' by yeah
Screamin' engine, burnin' gas
I'm on overdrive
Danger, danger, save your soul
The finger's writin' on the wall
Where you are the angels are blind
Midnight, and I cruise along the highway
Midnight, and I'm all right on the highway
Midnight sky is bright and clear
New moon on the right
All at once, risin' haze
The freeway is my life
I'm on a high, spacin' out
Where I'm goin' I don't care
Can't you see, this is me
An indestructable boy
Danger, danger, save your soul
The finger's writin' on the wall
Where you are the angels are blind
Midnight, and I cruise along the highway
Midnight, and I'm all right on the highway
I'm all right
Midnight, and I cruise along the highway
Midnight, and I'm all right on the highway
Midnight, and I cruise along the highway
Midnight, on a never ending highway
