 1. Wild Animal
 
 You say I'm boisterous and evil
 There's a demon in my eyes
 You say I'm praying to the dark prince
 The Lord of the Flies
 Try hard to defame me, cos your power doesn't work on me
 Your self-created blindness turns your heart to stone
 Before it ever starts to feel
 
 The youth is what I'm living
 The wildness what I pray
 I don't need no religion to lead me on my way
 I don't need politicians to tell me wrong or right
 Cos everything is transient and the treasury of life's
 So rich and it waits for me
 
 Like a wild animal, I follow my heart like it beats
 Like a wild animal, the mighty urge to be free
 To live the life I want
 Like a wild animal, wildness leads my way
 Like a wild animal, as long as I follow my nature
 I'll never go astray.
 
 Living, follow your heart on its way
 Dying, deny your heart and you'll pay.
 
 The church is praying moral
 They say this piece of gum it kills
 They build up funeral pyres
 They burn people for their thrills.
 They falsified the Bible, for the power and the gain
 I never fawn on liars, the way they're gonna treat me
 If they wanna stab my back
 
 
 
 
 2. Chains and Leather '90
 
 As the day has gone and the heat has come
 Headbanger's war tonight
 Screaming metal unleashed for the battle
 Makes them feel alright
 Sweat and beer, devilish cheer
 Glaring flashlights
 Chains and leather will live forever
 The band begins it's fight
 
 We are right, praying metal tonight
 The message from Hell and it's spell
 Even Satan wears leather, our souls do it forever
 So let us play our rules tonight
 
 Chains and leather
 Chains and leather
 Chains and leather and rivets
 Chains and leather
 Chains and leather
 Chains and leather forever
 
 All Hell breaks loose, and you have to choose
 If you stay or go
 Head are banging, chains are clanging
 From the first to the last row
 Praying their rules, having their booze
 Thunder and aggression
 Stunning the crowd, devilish loud
 Our possession
 
 We are right, praying metal tonight
 The message from Hell and it's spell
 Even Satan wears leather, our souls do it forever
 So let us play our rules tonight
 
 Chains and leather
 Chains and leather
 Chains and leather and rivets
 Chains and leather
 Chains and leather
 Chains and leather forever
 
 
 
 
 3. Tear Down the Walls
 
 Peculiar fragrance is all around
 Ascent of tranquility, wonderful rest
 Motions are slow, emotions are strong
 Invisible nightmare's sitting on my chest
 
 Feel so cool, light years away
 Life's so cruel, can't stand a single day
 
 Dangerous dreams of a distant world
 Stupyfied senses, a slow way to die
 Searching for shelter in clouds of smoke
 Escape from reality, meanest lie
 
 Feel so cool, light years away
 Life's so cruel, can't stand a single day
 Tear down the walls
 
 It appeared like a saviour to rescue my soul
 Creeping fraud sneaked slightly into my life
 It felt like a friend of very old days
 It came on velvet paws, it was a hellbound drive
 
 Feel so cool, light years away
 Life's so cruel, can't stand a single day
 Tear down the walls
 
 
 
 
 4. Störtebeker
 
 Drinking manners gave his name, empty a tankard all in one
 Not afraid of fiend or god, just his look will make them run
 Call the crews, we take to sea, bound for Denmark's southern shores
 Let's prove our loyalty, risk our souls without remorse
 
 In confidence we stand the fight, we trust in traders' words
 Outlaws as a rich man's knight, waiting for the cut that hurts
 
 Störtebeker, the furious cry for vengeance
 Störtebeker, thunderous he crossed the sea
 
 Merchants' profits to defend, Klaus agreed to give support
 Conquering old Viking land, carry away the goods they hoard
 Letter of mark a doubtful help, grabbing claws and greed
 Cry of vengeance yelling scream
 We'll come back and they will bleed
 
 Hunters' tradeships, where they are, for survival and revenge
 Big success in easy fight, hunt them back into their trench
 Captured by their strongest ship, traitor's words send us to death
 Death for all on vengeance trip, proudly Klaus will lose his head
 
 Störtebeker, a furious cry for vengeance
 Störtebeker, thunderous he cross the sea
 Störtebeker, he thwarts their plans, he teach them fear
 Störtbeker, he scorns the traitors, kicked their ass
