1. Kings of the World
We are Kings of the World
We've got the muscle, we've got the brains
We've got technology, we feel no pain
We've made the sacrifice, we've paid the price
We rule this land with an iron hand
We are Kings of the World
We've got the money, we've got the pull
We've got the satellites, we've got the balls
We are the best in the business, we've got your back
We are Kings of the World
Stand up, build yourself up, let no one tear you down
You have a name, you're not a number
You are a King, so fight for your world!
We're the Kings of the World and we're gonna get you
We're gonna get you the Kings of the World!
I have no sympathy for laziness or greed
I say go on back home and smash in your TV
You must live your life, like a king
Like a King, a King of the World!
We are Kings of the World!
We are Kings of the World!
Kings of the World!
We're the Kings of the World and we're gonna get you,
we're gonna get you, the Kings of the World!
2. The Final Frontier
All of our rockets, point to the sky
Well I've built the arks, we shall arrive
To colonize our place on Mars
You have your planet and now we have ours
We won the war, we won the race
We are the first in the conquest of space!
Sowing the seeds of atmosphere
Growing primordial life in the sphere
We playing God, tempting our fate
There is but one place we have to escape
Follow us now, journey to fear
Follow us into the Final Frontier
The colonization of Mars
is the goal of our genetic engineers
To establish a greenhouse colony
with the proliferation of an atmosphere
and eventually self sustaining life on
the red planet...while the poor starve and
live in the squalor of what was once Earth
We won the war, we won the race
We are the first in the conquest of space!
The Final Frontier
We won the war, we won the race
Follow us now, journey to fear
Follow us into the Final Frontier
We won the war, we won the race
We are the first in the conquest of space
The Final Frontier
We won the war, we won the race
The Final Frontier
3. The Executioner`s Song
I watch the sun rise up, on this my final day
Inside this lonely room, a toilet and a bed
Outside I see the horizon, and focus my gaze
One walk in the fresh air and freedom, my final request
I'm innocent the pretense wrong
A martyr guilty all along
Now I sing the executioner's song
I walk the compound now with escorts and in chains
Wait for diversion time to roll under the fence
I hit my feet and now I'm gone
The Hounds of Hel are howling on
Will I escape the executioner's song?
Here in my fortress lost, within the wilderness
Imprisoned for a past I never confessed
While in my soul the chase goes on
The Hounds of Hell are howling on
And I still sing the exectutioner's song
And I still sing the exectutioner's song
The executioner's song
4. Wild in the Streets
The gnashing of metal against naked metal
An orgy of power begins
The screaming of friction against the restriction
Stalkers in black leather skin
Eyes of steel, Hearts of evil
They're wild
Wild in the Streets
The roar of the beast devours the feast
The fire that burns you inside
Give it your brain, give it your name
You'll become its jealous bride
Your fate is sealed, the buried needle
They're wild
Wild in the Streets
Wild in the Streets
Human debris, smolder in fire
Columns of smoke fill the sky
Terror controls, hope is abandoned
Only the strong shall survive
Have no fear, their end is near
They're wild
Wild in the Streets
Wild in the Streets
5. Thief of Hearts
Woman you came to me
like a thief in the night
You came and you stole my heart
You said a love like ours could last and last
Then you tore me apart
I tried to follow you
Looks like you ran away
Turn and look, I find you're gone
You're nothing but a Thief of Hearts
You are a robber, you are a stealer
You took me for everything I had
You left a hole where my heart should be
Never thought you'd be so bad
I try to follow you
Looks like you're running away
I turn and look, I find you're gone
You're nothing but a Thief of Hearts
A Queen of Diamonds, her beauty lies as deep as her skin
She'll rob you blindly, 'til it seems you're losing again
Woman I came for you, like a Thief in the night
I came, but left no sign
The Queen of Diamonds keeps her hearts locked in a vault
Once hers, now they're all mine
Don't try to follow me
You'll find I'm getting away
Turn and look, you'll find I'm gone
You're messing with the Thief of Hearts
Messing with the Thief of Hearts
6. I4I
Reaching the masses, a message of hope
Go hang yourselves, you have enough rope
Towers of ivory, up to the sky
None for the needy, the sin and the lie
I for an I, God is a lie, Truth has died, I for an I
Your soul is condemned, it's a ship bound for Hell
Salvation for dollars, the product I sell
Crocodile tears, I cry on TV
Scandalous smiles, you want to believe
I for an I, God is a lie, Truth has died, I for an I
Money and Power, Glory and Fame
Watch me in awe as I exalt my name
Give me forgiveness, illicit sex
Marriage and family, religion's a wreck
I for an I, God is a lie, Truth has died, I for an I
It's a sin and a lie, I for an I
It's the product I sell, you're a ship bound for Hell
My lies and my evil leave a stain on His name
Fires of Hell not hot enough for my shame
7. The Fall of Babylon
A thousand years ago on a cool misty morning
The king and his power rose, she burned down with no warning
She had been a city, a city of great sin
And within the hour, the king had done her in
The fall of Babylon, the fall of Babylon
Doomed to eternal death, hear your king's cry
A deceiver of the world, a city of wicked lies
Now she has no power, all her weath is gone
In misery you shall pay, to burn in fire and stone
The fall of Babylon, the fall of Babylon
The fall of Babylon
All the powers gone
The fall of Babylon
The fall of Babylon
8. All is Fire
Listen to the sound of night
Feel the wind blow cold
Darkness never fades to light
Never a crown of gold
Can't you see there's no describing
Got to be, there's no denying
All is Fire, it starts again
Far beyond and over the distance
Hear an old man sigh
He prays for peace and now demands it
There is no reply
Can't you see there's no describing
Got to be, there's no denying
All is Fire, it starts again
All is Fire, too late my friend
There is a bloody curse
a curse all men should fear
We may as yet to see the worst
destruction could be near
All is Fire
Can't you see there's no describing
Got to be, there's no denying
All is Fire, it starts again
All is fire, the wrath begins
All is fire, too late my friend
The wrath begins, All is Fire
9. Locomotive Breath
10. The End of the Rainbow
11. Cries of the Dawn
Feel the rain, hear the sounds
Sense the anger, the world goes round
Hear the thunder, feel its might
Feel the power, the earth goes down
The king shows no mercy, no more
Hear the Cries of the Dawn
Cries of the Dawn
The promised land lies far away
Restitution, time to pay
Revelations, see the light
What it's worth, the world fades
The king shows no mercy, no more
Hear the Cries of the Dawn
Cries of the Dawn
Touch the sky, it will remain
Forget dreams, no need to explain
Holy men, divine rights
Run for cover and hide their shame
The king shows no mercy, no more
Hear the Cries of the Dawn
Cries of the Dawn
Hear the Cries of the Dawn
Cries of the Dawn
Of the Dawn
When the raven flies, avert your eyes
Hear the bloody cries screaming
through the night
If you escape the knife with your very life
If you meet the dawn, will you carry on?
All night, all night, all night long
Can you hear the cries?
Cries of the Dawn
