1. Ram It Down
Raise the sights, the city lights are calling
We're hot tonight, the time is right, there's nitro in the air
In the street is where we'll meet, we're warning
On the beat, we won't retreat, beware
Thousand of cars and a million guitars
Screaming with power in the air
We've found the place where the decibels race
This army of rock will be there
To ram it down, ram it down
Straight through the heart of this town
Ram it down, ram it down
Razing the place to the ground
Ram it down
Bodies revvin' in leather heaven in wonder
Lights are dimmin' and heads are swimmin' as thunder hits the stage
Hell breaks loose, turn on the juice get stronger
We metal maniacs begin to rave
Thousand of cars and a million guitars
Screaming with power in the air
We've found the place where the decibels race
This army of rock will be there
To ram it down, ram it down
Straight through the heart of this town
Ram it down, ram it down
Razing the place to the ground
Ram it down
Shout it out, we're all together now
Shout it out, we join as one, one
Thousand of cars and a million guitars
Screaming with power in the air
We've found the place where the decibels race
This army of rock will be there
To ram it down, ram it down
Straight through the heart of this town
Ram it down, ram it down
Razing the place to the ground
Ram it down
2. Heavy Metal
When the power chords come crashing down
Go tearing through my senses
It's for the strong, not for the weak
In light and dark dimensions
It stimulates, regenerates
It's therapeutic healing
It lifts our feet up off the ground
and blasts us through the ceiling
Between the eyes
I hear it screaming
And it electrifies
Your inner feelings
Hot shock waves charge the air
All heads are banging
Fists pumping everywhere
Guitars are cranking
Heavy Metal
Heavy Metal - What do you want
Heavy Metal
Heavy Metal - What do you want
Ten thousand lights come blazing down
With razor sharp precision
The speakers pour out molten steel
The beat gives double vision
An armour plated raging beast
That's born of steel and leather
It will survive against all odds
Stampeding on forever
Between the eyes
I hear it screaming
And it electrifies
Your inner feelings
Hot shock waves charge the air
All heads are banging
Fists pumping everywhere
Guitars are cranking
Heavy Metal
Heavy Metal - What do you want
Heavy Metal
Heavy Metal - What do you want
3. Love Zone
Been awake all night, can't get no sleep
I need a steel blue heart walkin' down the street
With your razor nails, and your painted smile
Your gonna get richer, I gotta get wild
Any time you want to
Any way you need
Get your love for money there, satisfaction guaranteed
Wo oh, love zone
You know what I mean
Wo oh, love zone
Live that fantasy
I'm behind the wheel, throttle open wide
The gas tanks full do you want to ride
Drivin' in the fast lane late at night
I can't keep my eyes off your red tail light
You know where we're going
I know where we are
Set the rear view mirror for the backseat of the car
Wo oh, love zone
You know what I mean
Wo oh, love zone
Live that fantasy
In your leather and chrome you're all the rage
All you want to do is get backstage
You heard all the stories, are they true
The rock 'n' roll circus is calling you
When you get there baby
You'll be hypnotised
Never seen nothin' like it no
You won't believe your eyes
Wo oh, love zone
You know what I mean
Wo oh, love zone
Live that fantasy
Wo oh, love zone
You know what I mean
Wo oh, love zone
Live that fantasy
Everybody get in
Everybody get in that love zone
4. Come and Get It
Do you like it heavy?
Do you love it mean?
Do you want it dirty?
We don't play it clean
Standing in the spotlight
Ceiling to the floor
I can see you rockin'
Let me hear you roar
Turn it up!
Tear it down!
Hammering through
Can you feel the sound
Any day, Any night
Midnight madness
Dynamite
If you want it
Come and get it
Do you want it
Come and get it
Can you feel the power?
Blinded by the light
Keep on goin' crazy
Burnin' up the night
Shouting out together
Boiling like the sun
Metal lives forever
Blazing on and on
Turn it up
Tear it down
Hammering through
Can you feel the sound
Any day, Any night
Midnight madness
Dynamite
If you want it
Come and get it
Do you want it
Come and get it
Do you like it heavy
Do you love it loud
If you want it
Come and get it
Do you want it
Come and get it
5. Hard as Iron
Whipcrack, stings the sky
Don't mess with me I'm danger
The meanest one alive
Earthquake, breaks the Richter scale
The more that you resist
The more the pain you'll feel
I'm blazing on to glory
There's thunder in my veins
And nothing stands before me
Forever I'll remain
Hard as iron
Sharp as steel
Stop for no man
You better beg and kneel
Untouched, cold as ice
I'll turn your blood to water
Strangle in my vice
Shock waves, bones to dust
You're messin' with a mine field
so expect the worst
I'm blazing on to glory
There's thunder in my veins
And nothing stands before me
Forever I'll remain
Hard as iron
Sharp as steel
Stop for no man
You better beg and kneel
As I destroy, last thing you'll hear me cry, is victory, is victory
I'm blazing on to glory
There's thunder in my veins
And nothing stands before me
Forever I'll remain
Hard as iron
Sharp as steel
Stop for no man
You better beg and kneel
6. Blood Red Skies
As the sun goes down, I move around
Keeping to the shadows
Life, hangs by a thread
And I've heard it said, that I'll not see tomorrow
If that's my destiny, it'll have to be
So I'll face the future
Running out of time
I'm on the line
But I'll go down fighting
Felt the hand of justice
Telling wrong from right
Threw me out upon the street in the middle of the night
Cybernetic heartbeat
Digital precise
Pneumatic fingers nearly had me in their vice
Not begging you
I'm telling you
You won't break me
You won't make me
You won't take me
Under blood red skies
You won't break me
You won't take me
I'll fight you under
blood red skies
Through a shattered city, watched by laser eyes
Overhead the night squad glides
The decaying paradise
Automatic sniper
With computer sights
Scans the bleak horizon for its victim of the night
Not begging you
I'm telling you
You won't break me
You won't make me
You won't take me
Under blood red skies
You won't break me
You won't take me
I'll fight you under
blood red skies
As the end is drawing near
Standing proud, I won't give in to fear
As I die a legend will be born
I will stand, I will fight
You'll never take me alive
I'll stand my ground
I won't go down
You won't break me
You won't make me
You won't take me
Under blood red skies
You won't break me
You won't take me
I'll fight you under
blood red skies
You'll never take me alive
I'm telling you
Hands of justice
I will stand, I will fight
As the sun goes down
I won't give in to fear
7. I'm a Rocker
The greatest times, I've ever known
They're locked inside o' me
And carved out of stone
I've broken hearts
Made people sing
I've drove a million miles
I've done everything
I'm a rocker, Oh oh
Do as I feel as I say
I'm a rocker, Oh oh
And no one can take that away
Bring on the night
That's when I live
I come alive inside
Give all I can give
I live each day
Like it's my last
I live for rock and roll
I never look back
I'm a rocker, Oh oh
Do as I feel as I say
I'm a rocker, Oh oh
And no one can take that away
I'm a rocker
And I'm always revvin' up
I'm a rocker
I can never get enough
I'm a rocker
It's something in my blood
I'm a rocker
Wouldn't change it even if I could
I'm a rocker, Oh oh
Do as I feel as I say
I'm a rocker, Oh oh
And no one can take that away
8. Johnny B. Goode (Chuck Berry cover)
Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods amongst the evergreens
There stood an old cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
That never ever learned to read and write so well
But he could play a guitar just like ringing a bell
Go go. Go Johnny go
Johnny B. Goode
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
Old engineer sitting in the shade
Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made
The people passing by would stop and say
'Oh my but how that little country boy could play'
Go go. Go Johnny go
Johnny B. Goode
His mother told him some day you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old band
Many people coming from miles around
To hear you play your music till the sun goes down
Maybe someday your name will be in lights, saying
'Johnny B. Goode Tonight!'
Go go. Go Johnny go!
Johnny B. Goode
9. Love You to Death
You get me up, then we both get down
We roll all night makin' heavy sounds
I'm all tied up on your bed
I'd rather be inside your head
Don't do this, do it like that oh yeah
You've hit the spot, give it all you got
I don't care
I'll teach you a lesson
That you won't forget
Why don't you save your breath
'Cause I'm gonna love ya' to death
I'm comin' to the point, I can't hold back
Then you ease off with your attack
You're the best I've had if you please
You never stop, you great big tease
Don't do this, do it like that oh yeah
You've hit the spot, give it all you got
I don't care
I'll teach you a lesson
That you won't forget
Why don't you save your breath
'Cause I'm gonna love ya' to death
You can take me places, I thought I'd never go
And when you turn your love on me
Baby you're the star of the show
You can take me places, I thought I'd never go
And when you turn your love on me
Baby you're the star of the show
I'll teach you a lesson
That you won't forget
Why don't you save your breath
'Cause I'm gonna love ya' to death
10. Monsters of Rock
It started many years ago, out of the black country
The seed became the embryo, for all on earth to see
Like stealth the word spread mouth to mouth, all
corners of the land
And soon the thing began to grow, and get right out of
hand
From the concrete jungle
The smoke, the dirt, the grime
Could not contain the hunger
It grew and grew in time, into a
Monster, Monster of rock
They could never bind it
It vowed to reach the top
Monster, Monster of rock
They could never bind it
Impossible to stop
Took the sound across the seas, the people stood in
awe
At last the sound had come to them
That they'd been waiting for
And millions roared, and millions cheered
This spectacle on stage
And everyone went crazy as it bellowed out in rage
From the concrete jungle
The smoke, the dirt, the grime
Could not contain the hunger
It grew and grew in time, into a
Monster, Monster of rock
They could never bind it
It vowed to reach the top
Monster, Monster of rock
They could never bind it
Impossible to stop
From the concrete jungle
The smoke, the dirt, the grime
Could not contain the hunger
It grew and grew in time, into a
Monster, Monster of rock
They could never bind it
It vowed to reach the top
Monster, Monster of rock
They could never bind it
Impossible to stop
