1. Killer Instinct
Debutante of murder
In the first degree
Master of the slaughter
He's hungry, can't you see
Survives by natural instinct
Prowler of the night
Prone to dangerous contact
Ready for a fight
He's got that killer instinct
Got that killer instinct
That comes right from the heart
Yeah it's the killer instinct
That tears your mind apart
Seeks the weak and vile
He aids society
You can see there's no denial
He searches to be free
No rest for the wicked
His work is never done
Where you are, he'll seek you
So don't try to run
Fights evil with his evil
Stops violence with his own
But it's always the law
Who casts the first stone
They all don't understand him
Vigilante of the streets
And as they all surround him
He dies before their feet
2. Armed and Dangerous
Take to the air, take to the seas
There's no one left to answer your pleas
We're going to start a new revolution
And heavy metal is our constitution
We're overcharged with rock 'n' roll
A time bomb waiting to explode
Like a loaded gun ready to blow
You can't hide there's nowhere to go
Armed and dangerous
With the music that we play
Our guitars have the power
To blow you all away
We don't need any weapons
Just the ones that we supply
We're armed and dangerous
And that you can't deny
We're on your side, fighting for your rights
All the losers will be in your sights
If they don't like your leather or the noise
They better look out or they'll face the boys
We're heading your way like a fireball
Rockin' as hard as a solid wall
A big shock wave reaching out for you
If you like it, you can headbang too
3. Take This Torch
Searching in the darkness, searching for the light
Looking to the darkness, putting up a fight
Iron chains surround you, you try to make a run
Someone near has found you, and now you see the sun
Bright lights, now you can see where you are
Far, out in the universe
Now, you, try to escape from this spot
Hot, ready or not
Take this torch
Feel the white hot metal, feel it burn your skin
Experience the torture, pay for all your sins
Taken to the stairwell, taken to a cell
Scorches all your body, taste the wrath of hell
4. Fast and Loud
Metal fury, metal sound
We'll rock this place right to the ground
Pounding drums, pounding bass
The look of anger in your face
Lights and action hit the floor
Speed and power, give me more
Molten mayhem, tempered steel
Love to hear the guitar squeal
Fast and loud
Loud and proud
Gotta rock hard
To please the crowd
Fast and loud
Power trip
Now's the time
To let it rip!
Spikes and leather fill the hall
Really want to please you all
Armoured fists, i see them shake
How much can our bodies take?
Sound of metal in the air
Time for you to get your share
Metal fans fill our dreams
Love to hear your metal screams!
5. City of Damnation
Deep within these ruins is a city full of life
A growing force surpassing all the poverty and strife
An underground militia taking orders from but one
The right to choose who lives or dies 'til senseless victories won
The deadly prowlers are active through the night
To seek their vengeance on others who will fight
Can't see past the fact that they're fighting for their lives
The enemies seek liberation from something deep inside
City of damnation: aggression rules their lives
City of damnation: beckons them to die
City of damnation: on a killing spree
City of damnation: fighting endlessly
They cannot lose the power of a never ending cause
They reach with fear at better things ignoring all the laws
The street becomes a jungle and death attains respect
The bloody anger takes control and minds it does infect
Unending struggle complicates with sheer determination
Killing friend, killing foe, fulfilled extermination
They guard against the enemy to save the territory
A battle which results in death and takes away the glory
Trapped in streets of debris, they're masters at their trade
The fury and the violence will never cease or fade
Alongside all their rivals, dead bodies prove their loss
They're really only rebels both fighting for one cause
6. Gatecrasher
The power rips through the night
Energy you just can't fight
No escape from the fire
Tension mounts and takes you higher
Thousand there at the hour
Band plays on and grasps the power
Clench your fist and start to shake
How much onslaught can you take?
You're a GATECRASHER, sweat beads on your head
GATECRASHER, blood is what you shed
GATECRASHER, lash society
GATECRASHER, it's what you want to be
The speed builts intensity
The metal has complexity
The feel of leather, clang of chain
Ears are bleeding from the pain
The grind shatters time and space
A glow around a broken face
Enslaves your mind and very soul
Seems so bold and yet so cold
The lights they set the stage ablaze
You're left there in a metal daze
From the sound, shrapnel flies
The music never seems to die
GATECRASHER!
7. Cross Me Fool
Born a bastard
The baddest in the land
Never done
I take whatever I can
Live the age
Live it fast
Crash course riot
Kicked my teacher outta class
Cross Me Fool, I'll even up the score
What you'll get, revenge and a little more
You know I'm bad, I've done it all before
Stay clear of me, I'm rotten to the core
You know me
Don't like my style
Wait and see
It takes a little while
Play the fool
When it comes I go
Piece o'tail
When it's you I'll let you know
Hiding out
Never catch me in the act
Crime is time
I've done some, won't go back
Remember me
When deeds are done
When I'm back
I'm back for a bit of fun
8. Evil Invaders
Beneath the dampened soil lies a terror from the past
The rotting corpses of the damned where evil has been cast
A deathly curse surrounding all the ancient graves and tombs
The time has come the time is now: release unearthly doom
Lightning strikes, evil night, start the dreaded turmoil
Rotting flesh appears now from above the loosened soil
Rising from the underworld, destroy the human race
Unleashed upon a dreary night to spread unholy grace
From hell they rise, with screams and cries
At death's own will
In frantic rage they set the stage
They start to kill
Evil Invaders: Death deception in the night
Evil Invaders: Corruption as they fight the fight
Evil Invaders: Spreading out to take command
Evil Invaders: The future of mankind at hand
Mutilated bodies now employed upon the streets
Searching around, seeking out the human flesh to eat
Resurgence of the damned will our cities fate defeat?
Unless we're strong and earth defend we'll fall beneath their feet
The evil force grows stronger as the terror grows intense
The panic stricken population builds up its defence
A sudden rude awakening as cities fall to dread
Amidst the human slaughter, tell us how we kill the dead
9. Iron Hammer
You made the trip to catch the band
We better do the best we can
We're glad you came to trash and see
Our raw attack of pure energy
Iron Hammer, in your face
Wall of metal shakes the place
Total volume, full scale attack
Once you're here ain't going back
Now the power's in your hands
A message for all metal fans
I know this sounds a little cliche
But I don't give a damn anyway!
So let this be a lesson to you
Though we leave we're never through
If you help to keep metal alive
The underground will always survive
I pledge: to keep it alive
I promise: metal will thrive
I swear: myself to the cause
I'll teach: all the metal laws
10. Instant Death
They told us it would never be
And man kind's race would live free
Free of pain and free of war
And now the sun will shine no more
Deep deception covered with lies
Mass pollutants filling the skies
Minorities' warnings forgotten by all
Truth comes too soon and majorities fall
Living hell, unchained fire, destruction and decay
Burning eyes, burning flesh, prophets in dismay
See them cry, watch them die, in no unending fame
Instant death claims their lives, progression is to blame
Technology the attribute
To futuristic solitude
To flood our mass with unknown gas
And hope the outcome would surpass
Widespread chaos gets out of hand
Law and order crushed on demand
Suicidal tendencies an easy way out
Death through starvation, frustration and drought
All these years till they found out
Beyond the shadow of a doubt
And know the final holocaust
The lives of millions are all lost
Deadly mist brings condemnation
Choking air reaps degradation
A final breath, you're breathing dust
Your death unfair, your life unjust
11. Speed Merchants
Warriors of leather unchained to rule the night
Ganglands join together to fight the metal fight
Speed and fury now delivered to the hungry crowd
Trashing like there's no tomorrow, that's what it's about
Rages like an earthquake shaking all your heads
Death to all the posers, tear then all to shreds
Breaking down the barriers we'll let it go tonight
Let's all bring the roof down and trash with all our might
Speed Merchants decked out in spikes and chains
Speed Merchants have metal in their veins
Speed Merchants cut loose and bash their brains
Speed Merchants we sweat and go insane
Furious intentions directed at the stage
A building of agressionis now released in rage
You raise your hands to feel the awesome power in the air
Your body aches, your neck it breaks, but you don't seem to care
Burning hearts of fire amidst the human mass
Intensities reach maximum wich we shall now surpass
Draining all our energy, stricken with abuse
A deadly charge like dynamite, we've got to light the fuse
Scorching blaze surrounds them as the metal takes control
It penetrates their willing minds and occupies their souls
Speed Merchants live for pleasure, Speed Merchants live for pain
They live for understanding and sparks to start the flame
Speed merchants!
12. Thrash Dance
At the gate the thrashers wait, with flesh of hardened steel
At the show the bitches go to such their nasty meal
Pounding meat, scorching heat, lick the dragon's bite
Eat your tail, with tooth and nail, their juices flowing right
Nocturnal curves, seduce and serve, spread the grease and feast
We thrust in time, a filthy crime for craving lucid beasts
Innocence has disappeared, the judgement: bad is bad
We're all damn good criminals from the good times that we've had
Masters of the armory, the attitude will show
Long live the underground, your last chance: here it goes
Trashdance (Into her pants)
From dawn's light, making spite, for thrills 'til early hours
Turn 'em back, infected crack, their skin is caught and sour
Trashdance into her pants, her oyster stings you all
All aroused her stench is doused, she's up against the wall
Pain and pealed with staining steel, take it, feel it grind
Piercing hearse, sends the curse, the trashing metal way
We spit on those who choose to pose, we trash with all the rest
Busting heads, ignoring feds, we know this crowd's the best!
13. A.O.D.
Corruption of the innocent, in battles of the past
Revolves around an incident, in which the mold was cast
A case of taking orders, a madman in command
Thousands upon thousands destroyed by his own hand
KILL: they're sent to die
KILL: no reason why
KILL: but who's to blame
KILL: who'll face the shame
He's somewhere in hiding, his fate they're deciding
For years they've been hunting him down
A forty year void, yet they want him destroyed
The Angel Of Death can't be found
Relies upon his allies to keep him safe and sound
In some foreign country, there's rumour he's been found
They send special forces to grab him if they can
Their plot has been discovered, he's escaped again
Wanted for his war crimes by descendents of the dead
Never ending search, high price on his head
A weak and aging demon, he's only skin and bone
But those who carry grudges
Won't leave him alone
14. K.M.A.
Kiss My Ass
15. Forced Annihilation
Slicing through the silence
Like blades of stainless steel
A rush of metal fury
Forged from what you feel
Mayhem all around you
You know you're not alone
Fierce and violent actions
Crush you to the bone
Driving us higher, we plunge into fire
A desperate risk we must take
Amidst devestation, forced annihilation
Cause of our necks soon to break
FORCE! OOH!
Possessing unknown power
Grinding to your minds
Don't try to escape
It aims, it seeks, it finds
We know you want it louder
An awesome overload
Decibels of torture
So eardrums will explode
Drove killer instinct
A surging in your veins
Past points of resistance
A level we sustain
Our fuel feeds your fire
Cause this is what you choose
Thrashing with aggression
And cutting fuckin' lose
16. Snake Eyes
Pretty as an angel, but the bone of the devil
The smile of a fox, but talking on the level
The figure of a lady peekin' through the holes
Tying down my wings, pulling on my soul
Your fingers are snakes, they're eyes and they see
Everytime we touch you take a bite out of me
Driftin' through my head, all the things that you said
What is written on the walls isn't right until it's read
So read: with your snake eyes
You're the devil's daughter, I've met him, skip the fakin'
You've been growing horns since your halo has been taken
In the trap you were the bait, that was your mistake
I never cared a bit for dirt or a black-eyed city snake
I was hartly temped with a wink and a bottle of sin
I had my own three bottles of the driest kinda gin
Undressed yoy with my eyes and then I realized
Your rolling dice and broken wings gave in to your disguise
Gave in: to your snake eyes
Everything at stake but I've learned my lesson well
You're giving me the choice will I roll heaven or is it hell
Remove the flashy costume, show me what you've got
A taste of what's below, so you'd better make it hot
Can't you see me laughing, you're begging with your cries
The fireballs I'm throwing are burning in your eyes
I can't roll a seven or even an eleven
Give me staring snake eyes, I wasn't made for heaven
Surprise: I've got snake eyes
17. Bad Vibrations
Why does everyone I know oct stupid when they're drunk?
They talk too loud, slur their words, throw up on my rug
They fall downstairs but they can't feel the bruises they receive
Pissing in my garbage can, can't wait until they leave
I never learn
I threw the party, bought the booze, got whet I deserved
Didn't think they'd wreck my house, never seen such nerve
Now I'II spend the next two days repairing all my stuff
Get the disinfectant out, I hope I bought enough
Puke stains permanently in my rug
Won't fade no matter how hard I scrub
Shit
Next time there's a party I'II be sure it's somewhere else
Revenge is mine when I show up. I'm gonna wreck your house
Enjoy the panic stricken look on someone else's face
Nothing's gonna stop me from destroying your whole place
18. Road Gunner
Rising power, feel the speed as I shift into high gear
All alone, I own the road, I know your gates are near
Hellsent, whipped with fury. death certificate I signed
None survive my speed machine, I'm out to kill mankind
Road Gunner, your fate
Road Gunner at your gate
You backstab me and think you'll get off free
Road Gunner, too late
Lock your doors, bolt down the bars, here comes my death machine
Cloud of hate hangs overhead, it always follows me
Wicked swiftness, speed wind raider, I will hypnotize
There's no quicker way to kill than right between the eyes
High balling speed, like lightning
See the chrome shine, roaring wheels
Burning up the highway
My speed demon made of steel
Road Gunner, say bye
Road Gunner, you die
Fuck with me and it's your destiny
Road Gunner, no lie
19. Free Lunch
You piss me off, you drive me nuts
You drink my beer and you always smoke my butts
You owe me money, you owe me big
You washed up nothing, you slob, you pig
Don't say you know me. don't say we've met
You squirmy worm. why don't you pay beck all your debts?
You're always sorry, but then you're back
Bleed me dry until I die, I'II have a heart attack
They warned me, but I never heard
You always take advantage of me
I told you to settle the score
But you think your lunches are free
You used to work to earn your keep
But you always called in sick
and now you spend the day asleep
I'm not your mom, I'm not your dad
I'm not a genius but I know when I've been had
I want my cash and you expunge
My money is the water and you wanna be the sponge
You never change, but then again
You've always been a loser but you're also my best friend
20. Iron Legions
Forces beyond your control
expose you to hazardous waste
Arson, the deviants play,
igniting the lead that you taste
Acid, the rain starts to fall,
smokescreen develops above
Nature, the balance destroyed,
killing the life that you love
Legions protest in the streets
The people aren't willing to die
Riots, the masses are angry
Exposing the corporate lie (again)
Fighting the ignorant scum,
they do anything that they please
Fatcats, they don't have the time
to help us prevent this disease
Violence grows with the problem,
an issue the big shots ignore
Anger, the people revolt,
the legions will even the score
Terrorism by another name, the end result's the same
Nobody wants to drink the acid rain, no way!
21. Psychopath
I put my gloves on, I go outside
I rev my engine and I'm ready to ride
I'm hyperactive, I'm on a tear
I'm on the highway going who knows where
I feel explosive, I feel uptight
I've got a hard on for some Violence tonight
You can't subdue me, I can't relax
Don't wanna be here when the virus attacks
Forget who you are
Forget where you've been
You don't want to meet the real me
I'm a psycho (like Norman Bates)
Increasing pressure inside my brain
Cuts off the blood flow, constricting my veins
The panic rises. I'm under seige
At first you doubted me but now you believe
Don't try to help me, don't hang around
I'm not responsible for running you down
Loss of control, possessed with hate
You try escaping but you tried it too late
The medication has no effect
Organism that you'll never detect
A bastard virus, first of its kind
Don't know you've got it 'till you lose your mind
I take my gloves off, my job is done
You didn't listen when I told you to run
I rev my engine. I head for home
Until the next attack I'm finally alone
22. End of the War
Soldier, I've given you orders,
you've got to be ready to fight
Freedom is what we're defending,
because it's our God given right
Living a life without violence,
I know that you wish it was true
Outlaws disturbing the world peace,
now you know what you must do
Leaders who crush human rights
They know what they're doing is wrong
Armies of organized death squads
They march to a different song
Rise up and teach them a lesson
They will not escape from the free
Force them to give up the slaughter
And then you will finally see
The end of the war
People who protest on our side,
they think that all war is insane
Ignoring security threats,
they can't offer an alternate way
No one wants to wage warfare
But sometimes you don't have a choice
No time for being naive
Instead we should speak with one voice
Hoping that we'll see the day
when war is a thing of the past
Power in responsible hands
will see that this war is the last
Solving the issues around us
depends on intelligent thought
Regardless, we need our armed forces
In case a new war must be fought
Even the score, finish this war
No more!
