1. Metal on Metal
Metal on metal
It's what I crave
The louder the better
I'll turn in my grave
Metal on metal
Ears start to bleed
Cranking it up
Fulfilling my need
Metal on metal
Shakin the place
Blows back your hair
Caves in your face
Metal on metal
Feeling the grind
Up go the hammers
A victim to find
Metal on metal
Heads start to bang
Denim and leathers
Chains that clang
Keep on rockin
Keep on rockin
To this metal tonight
Keep on pounding
Keep on pounding
Join the heavy metal fight
Metal on metal
Gets you so high
Excitement and action
Won't pass you by
Metal on metal
The hardened breed
True to the end
A fire to feed
Metal on metal
Heat starts to rise
Kickin it out
With screams and cries
Metal on metal Never will die
Parties and concerts
Keep it alive
Metal on metal
It's the only way
To hell with tomorrow
Let's live for today
2. Mothra
In a small town outside of destiny
The legend lives on yet it lives free
That night the mountains glowed with fiery rage
From the darkness of hell out she came
Comin' to get you!! You can't escape
You're gonna die, you wonder why??!!
Might wings beat out thunderous gusts of wind
Megatron eyes explode in the skies, it begins!
Talons like razors are shredding your bones to pieces
Is this a dream or is God's telling you it's over?
Mothra, Mothra, Mothra
Buildings are falling, black death is above you
You can't run there's nowhere to go
Rubble and stone block your path
You can't escape from it's wrath
Hot flashes burst, melting down civilization
Leaving destruction and desolation
You're still alive but your luck is running out
It's not a dream God's told you it's over
It's over!!!
What can we do?
A creature of the night
Are we through?
Will this be our plight
Please save us. please
What did we wrong to you?
This holocaust is killing all of us
I've sent this beast to purify your kind
And for your world leave no life behind
Conquest complete, Mothra is nesting
Population for future infesting
Purification yes it's been achieved
For eternity Mothra reigns supreme
3. Stop Me
When you see me you can't resist
You want my name on your telephone list
In your dreams and on your mind
Tonight's the night I could make you mine
Later on just me and you
I could make your dreams come true
You say for you I'm number one
Just meeting me is such fun
Oh no, you won't go, don't know what you're missin
You say, you won't stay, you stop me when we're kissin
Stop me when we're kissin
You come backstage to talk awhile
I wanna party 'cause that's my style
Young & tight you're what I need
Your fantasies I wanna feed
So come with me, back to my place
You know you've got such a pretty face
I'll show you how it is to be
Hanging around with a rocker like me
Tellin me you've gotta run
Cuttin out before the damage is done
Come on babe that ain't no fun for me
Cuttin down ain't where it's at
You're just a tease and that's a fact
No more talk it's going nowhere
And neither are you, you just sit and stare
Time to go I'll say goodbye
I thought I saw tears in your eyes
You watch me leave in my limousine
And you go home to your poster dreams
4. March of the Crabs
5. Jackhammer
Slip away out the back door
Get away from the scenery score
In the car you're ready to move
In the backseat you start to groove
Right turn left turn got the boys in both hands
Playin in stereo like you do with most bands
Unlocking the door
I can tell you can't wait
Seekin power rockin
Girl you love to vibrate
Can't get to sleep 'cause I hear you squealin
Like a stuck little pig you love the feelin
I wish you'd shut up 'cause I'm tryin to sleep
I'm gonna gag you gonna push it down deep
Running out of breath
You're chokin fast
You begin to sputter
You're not gonna last
Jackhammer pounding your pile
Jackhammer you're gonna cream
Jackhammer that's your style
Jackhammer you're gonna scream
There you go again with your dirty little mind
Trying to turn me on won't happen this time
Hangin around and that won't do
Nothing on my mind but gettin rid of you
Time for you to leave
Can't take no more
Just wanna see you
Walking out the door
6. Heat Sink
Tempered hot, ready or not, you know what I need
White hot steel, gotta be real, gotta forge to feed
Liquid lead my lust unfed, will soon be cold
My love will last within your cast, your body is my mold
Take the heat, burnin' treat, push & shove, red hot love
Blueing ore you want more, you just can't stop
Like a crane on a chain, I'll take you to the top
Got my hand on the firebrand, gonna mark you mine
Molten flesh our bodies mesh, oblivious to time
Take the heat, burnin' treat, push & shove, red hot love
Heat sink, I can't think of nobody but you
Heat sink, I'm on the brink, love's comin through
Crimson flames lovers' pains, sweat beads down my back
Clouds of smoke from the coal & coke, feel my heat attack
Brittle glass, softening mass, reserves now are spent
Like tin weak and thin, frame work now is bent
the fire's down the burnin's stopped, leave me now to cool
Cold black waste you've had a taste of my heated tool
7. Tag Team
The news is out there is a bout
Time and place are set
Admission is free if you want to see
Come and place your bets
Ringside seats just can't be beat
For the main event
They show their faces, take their places
Raging with contempt
Lights go down, smoke all around
Contenders eye each other
The challenge is made who'll make the grade
The ref pulls down the covers
At the centre of the ring they sway and swing
Exchanging fancy holds
When one's done they tag another one
How far will she go
Tag team baby - a camel clutch
Tag team baby - you are too much
Tag team baby - a scissor lock
Tag team baby - just wanna rock
On the ropes you're losing hope
In a hold we'll put you out cold
Got your back pinned down on the mat
Looks like we're the winners tonight
In round seven she's in heaven
How much can she take
Again and again she feels the strain
As she start the eighth
The bell is hit the stage is lit
She staggers to the centre
Opponents meet their body's heat
The boys tonight have spent her
She's going down she's on the ground
You can hear her howl
She can't take no more 'cause she's so sore
She's throwing in the towel
Ha, ha throwin in her towel
Gave your best but you lost the test
Didn't you know a way to win
Tag team baby - down for the count
Tag team baby - you lost the bout
Tag team baby - oh what a catch
Tag team baby - you blew the match
8. Scenery
You were standing in your favourite light
You thought you were hot thought that you were tight
I've seen you and I know your type
I know you'll be at the party tonight
Scenery, that's all you are to me
Scenery, that's all you'll ever be
Dyed blonde hair makeup packed on thick
The way you look could make your mother sick
Gave me that look that I've seen before
Give up babe I find your type a bore
Nothin to say but you said a lot
And in the end that's what you got
You think you're special but I can't agree
Your empty lines don't make it with me
Made the party like I knew you would
Tried to impress me like you thought you could
It's all a game but I know the rules
Girls like you are backstage fools
Took from you all I could take
Your being here is a big mistake
Your empty lines got you a ticket to fly
And I've decided to say goodbye
9. Tease Me, Please Me
It's getting late and I'm ready for you
There's a message that's coming on through
I'm all worked up no place to go
They tell me babe your all talk, no show
It's not the way it's supposed to be
You take my love give nothin to me
I can't stand when you say no more
You know it's your love and I've gotta score
Don't just tease me, please me
Don't just tease me, please me
I try so hard but it does no good
Oh honey I wish you would
The feelings strong I just can't wait
Bring home your love and don't be late
I've had enough of your teasin' ways
Your little games I don't wanna play
So change the rules and come to my side
I'm gonna take you on a rock 'n' roll ride
There's more to me than meets the eye
So come on honey gonna give me a try
Your game is over it's my turn now
Relax babe I'm gonna show you how
You gave into me I knew you would
Givin it to me I knew you could
Together now we will always be
Me with you and you with me
I was right and you were wrong
Ah listen baby 'cause here's my song
Don't just tease me, please me
Don't just tease me, please me
I got through and it felt good
Oh honey I knew it would
10. 666
Chains of death have been unleashed
Ripped and tattered stricken from hell
Sold my soul but the contract's been breached
Entering humanity from death's well
Your fate is sealed revelation is near
I hear your screams but I thrive off your fear
Received my warning but you didn't, didn't, didn't learn
666
666
Make my wars in the minds of man
Make the being itself fulfil my cause
Hitler and Manson were my right hand
To these men I entrusted my sacred laws
I'd rather be a king below than a servant above
I'd rather be free and hate than a prisoner of love
You heard my warning but you didn't, didn't, didn't learn
666
