1. Let It Loose
We won’t need to intimidate you
If we get a major breakthrough
So come on – let it loose
You’ve all seen this all before
So come on, get up and off of the floor
Let’s go – let it loose
We’re not here to read your rights
Tonight’s the night you do what you like
Hey you there – let it loose
If it’s much too loud, well, we don’t care
Are you ready – let it loose
Going crazy
We’ve the goods to appetise
Take it all, don’t compromise
Let it loose
Forget tomorrow, we’re here today
Is it what you want, are you here to stay
What do you say – let it loose
Loose and lethal
2. Cry Wolf
Some say it’s easy
Like taking candy from a child
But still he’d hit the bottle
Like it was going out of style
He said he’d kicked the need
Holding a shot in his hand
But life’s plain indifference
Too much for this man
Gotta give it up
He’s hooked on the stuff
Fooling no one but yourself
As you cry wolf
Pours out another cup
Well, I’ve seen enough
Fooling no one but yourself
Cry wolf
Got a taste for the hard stuff
His self respect hits the ground
Too much trust in the bottle
But the bottle leads down
Lost cry of the wasted
That nobody heard
Alcohol obituary
But nobody cared
He’s gotta give it up
He’s hooked on the stuff
Fooling no one but yourself
As you cry wolf
Pours out another cup
Well, I’ve seen enough
Fooling no one but yourself
As you cry wolf
3. Berlin
It’s getting dark, too dark to see
The streets run cold with anarchy
Troopers came and all was lost
Mass slaughter, human holocaust
Fire over Berlin
Nobody’s safe
No escape when metal rain starts faling
Berlin, it’s all too late
Thirty nine, machines of war
Cross frontier lines the eagle roars
Allied forces and Berlin falls
Razed to the ground, now the spoils
Fire over Berlin
Nobody’s safe
No escape when metal rain starts faling
Berlin, it’s all too late
Too too much complacency
Too afraid to face reality
East to west the Berlin Wall
Thin red line from nuclear holocaust
Fire over Berlin
Nobody’s safe
No escape when metal rain starts faling
Berlin, it’s all too late
Too late
4. Dirty Money
Back street room near the subway line
Set the scene for this shady crime
A married man lays there compromised
Concealed the camera like a private eye
Somebody’s playing dirty
And blackmail’s the name of this game
Set their sights on just one goal, cause
Dirty money’s their aim
Unmarked file contains the sight
Film so revealing from a previous night
Starts to shake, what’s he gonna do
Whichever way he’ll choose, he’s sure to loose
Somebody’s playing dirty
And blackmail’s the name of this game
Set their sights on just one goal, cause
Dirty money’s their aim
Somebody’s playing dirty
And blackmail’s the name of this game
Set their sights on just one goal, cause
Dirty money’s their aim
Midnight sidewalk in the bitter rain
To the ground he trew the burnt remains
He’s paid the price so was this the end
Not a chance, poor little frightened man
Somebody’s playing dirty
And blackmail’s the name of this game
Set their sights on just one goal, cause
Dirty money’s their aim
5. Ain't No Fit Place
A clock screams midnight
In the desperate heart of town
The same old nightmare
Something heavy’s going down
Shouting, screaming
Pain on every face
If you listen loud enough
You can hear it said
This ain’t no fit place
The city sleeps within
Plans are laid for tonight
This calm is unstable
Just one spark could ignite
Fire burning
Hate on every face
If you listen loud enough
You can hear it said
This ain’t no fit place
Unheard warning
Nothing heard, nothing seen, nothing done
You think it’s over
Stupid fool, it’s just begun
Shock, confusion
Shame on every face
If you listen loud enough
You can hear it said
This ain’t no fit place
6. On the Rocks
The cold shoulder
And dirty black looks
Old well warn charm
Right down to the luck
This sad affair, who cares, just let it bleed
Two way exchange
Lost on a one way street
On the rocks, on the rocks
Let it bleed
On the rocks, on the rocks
Let it bleed
Pretty bad scene
Gotta get loose
Cause me and you girl
We’re too bad news
Clean break, cut loose
A wolf left free to roam
Cause two into one
No it just don’t go
On the rocks
Let it bleed
On the rocks
Let it bleed
Let it bleed
7. The China Run
See the opium warlords
Feuding in the golden states
Who wins takes the contracts
To feed the western tastes
On and on and on
From here to kingdom come
One slip, you’re hooke
One more fool on the China Run
From mountains deep in Asia
To the west, contramand by sea
Raw juice refined to addiction
Big bucks out in the streets
On and on and on
From here to kingdom come
One slip, you’re hooked
One more fool on the China Run
See the heroin dealer
Stealing off the kids getting high
On the edge, some kid slipping slowly
That final step’s just a matter of time
On and on and on
From here to kingdom come
One slip, you’re hooked
One more fool on the China Run
8. White Hot
Feel it rumbling
White hot and fit to burst
Hard rock fever
Burning up like some hell born curse
Rough cut allies
Lay low the chains of command
Endless power
Necessary for the demand
White hot, white hot rock
White hot, white hot rock
Red cells boiling
Ready for the axe attack
Silhouettes shaping
Like a dark light from out of the black
Light traces pulsing
A cold mist conceals the ground
Clenched fist’s raised up
Sway to the mood of the sound
White hot, white hot rock
White hot, white hot rock
Latent power
Force enough to make you bleed
Harder, faster
Raw to satiate their greed
Overshoot limits
Let’s take it to the point of abuse
Axe victims helpless
Crying out for mercy refused
White hot, white hot rock
White hot, white hot rock
White hot
White hot
White hot
