2. Get Ready

So came on girl pleasure me tonight

The way you ride me is driving me insane
These games with you I'll keep inside my brain
Get down on your knees...
You'd better be ready
3. Dressed to Kill
It's cold outside
See him standing there
Sky is black
Danger is near
He prowls through the streets
In defense of the night
Searching for the girls
Till the morning light
He finds what he seeks
Rips off her clothes
Chains kiss her face her fate she seems to know
the blade bums like fire
As like a cat he strikes
Too late for mercy
Victim of the night
Dressed to kill - dressed to kill - dressed to kill
To kill young ladies
Dressed to kill - dressed to kill - dressed to kill!
don't mean maybe
Dressed to kill - dressed to kill - dressed to kill
To kill young ladies
Dressed to Kill - dressed to kill - dressed to kill!
don't mean maybe
Yeah, start running now
Back on the streets
Life on the run
Lurking in the dark never see the sun
So take care on the streets
Be careful in the night
He is always there
Just stick to the light
Dressed to kill...
See I don't mean maybe-'cause time-dressed to
See I'm dressed to-see
I'm dressed to kill
4. God of Thunder
When the dark came down
To rule the world
It looked and gazed on me
Then the earth quaked
The northwinds blew
And time was running short
there was genocide
All around me
And no one would survive
When it caught me there
The time was right
To kneel and pray
Come and break my chains-oh-my chains
My god of thunder, my god, my god
He's a god of thunder
There were visions of fire
As the pain climbed higher
To touch the roof of the world
Then my god came down
To snatch the crown
And put the evil to the flight
Come and break my chains-oh-my chains
My god of thunder
See the heaven's open wide, there gonna take you inside
It's now or never, the time is draw rewrite
He's a god of thunder...
Coming down on you - oh yeah...
5. Ride On
Hey You'll get trouble there
So keep your throttle wide
Don't waste your time
Just take control and keep on riding by
Beware of easy falls
Keep yourself alive
Do what you want
Don't you know that you're the last in line
Keep your Bike in gear
Find your way to go
Don't start asking why'cos this life is the only life you know
Ride on - ride on - ride on - ride on
Found a place to stay
You found someone to love
A caring little girl
Giving you more that you ever got before
Time it takes a toll
On things that seem so sure
So when it all went bad
You turned around and walked right out the door
Ride on - ride on - ride on - ride on
Rock
Ride on - ride on - ride on - ride on
Ride on, ride on, ride on - ride on. ride on, ride on
6. Shout it Loud
Shout it loud
Get your fist up in the air
Let us see - you're all there
'cos the magic you give us just keeps us playing on
Yeah we can feel you, touch you, hear you
Ain't gonna stop, oh no
So Scream out in the air
Let us hear - you're all there
Let the guitars cry across this smoky stage
'cos we give it to you, give it fast to you, give our last to you
just let it out, let it out
Shout it loud - loud
Shout it loud - show it loud
Shout it loud - show it loud
Come on and shout - show it loud
Feel the power in the air
Will you show us that you care
And the faith what you have in music made of steel
'cos it's metal, metal, metal brought us here tonight, tonight
See the light flash through the air
There is dry ice everywhere
And the power we give you will drive you on and on
and on'cos when we feel you, touch you, hear you
We'll tell you once again, oh again
Shout it loud - loud

It's right to shout - ain't gonna right to shout...

8. We Swear at You
Atomic winds blowing in the cold
Across our land
Our trust the government has sold
Might in their hands
They dropped the bomb never thinking of anyone
Children die, scream in pain
What have they done
What have they done
Nuclear waster land, death in the air
Skinburning lights
Broken dreams, broken hearts
No chance to fight
Destruction, contamination
Disease in hand
We watch our generation
Get turned to sand
Get turned to sand
We swear at you - at you we swear
We swear at you - at you
Oh - we swear at you - at you we swear
We swear at you at you
Five survived the disaster
You know their names
Took their revenge for the people
As the world stood in flames
Killed the rules - hung 'em high
They never listened to fools
They screamed out for vengeance
And made their own rules - yeah
Made their own rules
1995 The year of rebellion
Rising from the seners
Like rats from a cage
The rebels took to the streets
Accepting the challenge of a power so mighty
That the world shock with fear
As one, they rose up and fought for their rights
The right to rock
We swear at you - at you we swear
