1. Witch Hunter
Have you seen that man
Wrapped up all in black
He waits for his chance
Steps behind your back
He's the raper of the night
Never seen before
There's no warning when he comes
Lock your bedroom door
Jumped the garden wall
Did you hear him howl
Waits outside the hall
Can't you see him frown
Well, this guy is on the prowl
For evil and for lust
If you meet him, pray to god
Or you will be lost
He's a witch hunter, witch hunter
Witch hunter, witch hunter
Through the kitchen door
He's just found his way
Now the clock strikes four
Tonight he will stay
Stepping down your marble hall
He wears a sharpened knife
You can say I told you so
He wants you for his wife
2. Night Drifter
Well, it's a game
It's allright, let me stay
Until sunrise
I'm out all night long
What could ever call me home
Before daylight
On and on I go
That's the way I wanna live
You're got what you want
Mix another drink
In this state I can't go on
Time's runnin' on
I want some more
More and more and more
It's to late for me to go
Just one more night
I wanna stay
And take my word
It's no luck to be alone
Why do I have to live this way
Night drifter
Cries in his pillow
Night drifter
Cries in his pillow
3. Get Ready For Power
There are right for your show
We will show you the way to go
Why don't you stay with us tonight
You soon will see that we are right
You're such lovely people
Shovin' 'round the floor
If you have to fight
Step outside the door
We say hello, good evening one and all
We are so glad to see you in this hall
We're gonna play you all your favorite songs
And we all hope you're gonna sing along
Rock'n'Roll, the time is right
Get ready for power
And if you like to, please pour another glass
It's up to you now to do what we have asked
There's nothing else that you will have to do
On with the show, we wish good health to you
Yes, that's power baby - ain't great
Roll'em over, baby - tell it straight
Show's on baby - one more cry
Why, why, why don't we try
4. Love Is A Game
I believe I see your face
Reflected in the glass
Your blue eyes seem to laugh at me
You have captured my soul
You broke my heart 'long time ago
I'll make you love me too
Don't play for keeps, don't play to win
We're playing your game
I can't believe the words you say
That love's just gone someday
A coolness has replaced your love
My fortune fades away
I recall the times we had
Those days of happiness
I never will believe you
When you say love's a game
Night after night
It's a game
Love is a game
As you lie there, my heart stands still
You're just another girl
I once had loved sky blue eyes
With lots of golden smiles
I'm so confused, I chose another
You're not the same
The time has come and I accept
That love is just a game
5. Get Away
Not there days ago
In a place no one knows
Someone took the life of the man
Who killed my wife
She'd been forced by a gang
I swore that all would hang
Now their leader's dead
It was me who took his head
Tonight I'm on the run
But I won't rest 'til it's done
On and on I'll flee
'cause I know they're out for me
I can't sleep tonight
I'm ready for a fight
Now it's first degree
And the cops are hunting me
Get away
Tonight I'll get away
Get away
Tonight I'll break away
Get away
Tonight I'll far away
Get away
No one will catch me
Don't give up, it has to be
Such a long night
But I know it's me who's right
Surely I'll escape
All the time I'll stay awake
A knife in my fist
I have got to take the risk
6. Fight For Freedom
Break the law
Pride will fall
Break the chains
Freedom calls
Our time is coming
This land is ours
The mental slavery
Of all mankind
Will soon be over
We have to try
Reach out for freedom
We'll take our rights
Did you ever think
Those above cannot be bought
Did you ever see
So much room for you and me
Why don't you try
To stand up and pass them by
Turn the hands of time
Take something for your life
Fight for freedom
7. School's Out (Alice Cooper cover)
Well we got no choice
All the girls and boys
Makin' all that noise
'cause they found new toys
Oh, we can't salute you
Can't find a flag
If that don't suit you
That's a drag
School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's been blown to pieces
No more pencils, no more books
No more teacher's dirty looks
Well we got no class
And we got no principles
And we got no innocence
We can't think of a word that rhymes
No more pencils, no more books
No more teacher's dirty looks
Out for summer, out 'til fall
We aren't comin' back at all
School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's out with fever
School's out completely
8. Friends Of Mine
All the time friends of mine
Compliment me
All day long nothing's wrong
Just to please me
What the Hell, let them say
They above me
A two-faced lie can't be true
It all bores me
Friends of mine say I'm fine -
Don't believe them
Friend's of mine, they don't know
My suspicion
Push on in, stand up close
While I'm winning
Get a share, an empty stare -
Thanks, I'm leavin'
Friends of mine
Rule the world
Friends of mine
Ruin the world
But it's true, I don't know
Who's beside me
I look around, see my friends
Do they see me
I can't count on one or two
When I'm lovely
But the rest, their interest:
Big time money
Friends of mine
Take good care
Friends of mine
Better watch out
Watch yourselves
Friends of mine, I don't know
Who's beside me
I look around, see my friends
Do they see me
I can't count on one or two
When I'm lovely
But the rest, their interest:
Big time money
9. Here I Stand
Have you heard 'bout my last arson it was the one down by the sea
You might call me incendiary but that's not what's hurting me
'cause the power and the glory is an aim in history
When your name's once in the papers you will find eternity
Fire - burns high
You'll view no stranger sight
Highest bonfire
The flames lighting the night
Here I stand
A gun in my hand
Here I stand The world in my hands
Now I'm gonna make my fortune
Gonna kill someone who's nice well I told you my aim's higher
I will find the highest stairs
I will reach that golden medal as I climb the electric chair
