JUDAS PRIEST LYRICS
"Exciter (promo japan tour)" (1978 Single)
1. Exciter (Single Edit)
2. Better By You, Better Than Me
1. Exciter (Single Edit)
Exciter
Racing 'cross the heavens
Straight into the dawn
Looking like a comet
Slicing through the morn
Scorching the horizon
Blazing through the land
Now he's here amongst us
The age of fire's at hand
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation in his task
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation bids to ask
Everything he touches
Fries into a crisp
Let him get close to you
So you're in his trip
First you'll smoke and smolder
Blister up in singe
When ignition hits you
The very soul of your being will cringe
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation in his task
Stand by for Exciter
Here he comes now
Fall to your knees and repent if you please
Who is this man
Where is he from
Exciter comes
For everyone
You'll never see him but you will taste the fire upon your tongue
He's come to make you snap out
Of the state that you are in
Look around and make you
See the light again
So much self indulgance
Results in shattered eyes
Predominant complacency
Leads to beguiling lies
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation in his task
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation bids to ask
When he leaps amidst us
With combustive dance
All shall bear the branding
Of his thermal lance
Cauterising masses
Melting into one
Only when there's order
Will his job be done
Stand by for Exciter
Salvation in his task
Stand by for Exciter
Here he comes now
Fall to your knees and repent if you please
Who is this man
Where is he from
Exciter comes
For everyone
You'll never see him but you will taste the fire upon your tongue
Racing past the heavens
Straight into the dawn
Looking like a comet
Slicing through the morn
Scorching the horizon
Blazing through the land
Now he's here amongst us
The age of fire's at hand
Stand by for Exciter
Stand by for Exciter
Stand by for Exciter
Stand by for Exciter
2. Better By You, Better Than Me
You could find a way to ease my passion
You listen to the blood flow in my veins
You hear the teaching of the wind
Tell her why I'm alive within
I can't find the words
My mind is dead
It's better by you better than me
Guess you'll have to tell her how I tried
To speak up thoughts I've held so inside
Tell her now I got to go
Out in the streets and down the shore
Tell her the world's not much living for
It's better by you better than me
Everybody
Everybody knows
Everybody
Everybody knows
Better by you better than me
You can tell what I want it to be
You can say what I only can see
It's better by you better than me
Guess I'll have to change my way of living
Don't wanna really know the way I feel
Guess I'll learn to fight and kill
Tell her not to wait until
They'll find my blood upon her windowsill
It's better by you better than me
Everybody
Everybody knows
Everybody
Everybody knows
Better by you better than me
You can say what I only can see
You can tell what I want it to be
It's better by you better than me
Better by you better than me
You can tell what I want it to be
You can say way all they can see
Better by you better than me
