1. What You Don't Know (Sure Can Hurt You)
Good evening! Ha ha ha, welcome to our show
If you've got that problem, yeah, well, I think that you should know
This ain't the same old story or the same old song and dance
Don't speak of faded glory 'cause you won't get a second chance
I want to tell you something, I'm someone you can trust
You'd better take a good hard look 'cause we're the diamond in this dust
Hit it! We're no overnight sensation, no Cinderella fantasy
Please no plaudits or ovations, I've heard it all before you see
CHORUS:
What you don't know sure can hurt you
What you can't see makes you scream
What you don't know sure can hurt you
What you don't have is what you dream
Ain't we a pretty picture, ain't we a load of fun?
Don't let me influence you, I'll do that when we're done
Oh, are we irritating, oh, are we grating on your nerves?
Don't you know that the good boys never get what they deserve
REPEAT CHORUS
Your brain is filled with questions, you don't know how or why
Don't look to me for answers, honey, 'cause I don't want to lie
How do you like it so far, say ain't we quite a show?
There's no one else quite like us, the others all get up and go
Don't fill my head with stories, you see I ain't no debutante
Let's get to the nitty gritty, now you give me what I want
REPEAT CHORUS
What you dream
2. The Kids Are Back
We walk the streets in tattered armies
We got the lion in our heart
We're not lookin' for trouble, just for some fun
But we're all ready if you wanna start
CHORUS:
So, just remember the
The kids are back
The kids are back
Oh, watch out
The kids are back
Well, can you blame us for living our dreams?
Just look around and you'll see why
We don't wanna follow that same routine
Maybe it's for nothin', but we gotta try
REPEAT CHORUS
Look out
Now there's no problem, no need to fuss
We ain't out to stop your fun
Don't mind us askin', 'cause we gotta know
How can we stop it when you're havin' none?
REPEAT CHORUS (twice)
The kids are back
The kids are back
The kids are back
3. Stay Hungry
Are you feeling the fire, are you ready to explode?
Are your dreams and desires riding down an open road?
I'm like a runaway, a heart without a home
Others can laugh and play
I'll fight for every inch I take, I'm desperate to the bone
Stay hungry, feel the fire
Stay hungry, don't explode
Stay hungry, with desire
Stay hungry, you're alone
Be the hunter and the hunted, keep your target in your sight
Don't be side tracked or shunted, let pretenders feel your bite
And if you start to slide never show you're weak
Don't feel you've got to hide
Remember what you're fighting for, remember what you seek
Stay hungry, feel the fire
Stay hungry, don't explode
Stay hungry, with desire
Stay hungry, you're alone
Alright
Solo - Jay Jay
If your fire is faded and you can't feel it no more
If you're tired and overrated, let me show you to the door
Expect no sympathy, there's none to be had
Open your eyes and see
There's no room for the wannabees, the has beens or the bad
Stay hungry, feel the fire
Stay hungry, don't explode
Stay hungry, with desire
Stay hungry, you're alone
4. Destroyer
He spent his life a silent sentinel for all to fear
He walks, he talks, he thinks, he feels but no one dare go near
He takes in all he sees, nothing escapes his gaze
And when he strikes, he strikes for right, a glorious sight
CHORUS:
Destroyer, Destroyer, Destroyer
He's in town
He came to be from a grand mistake, a mystical charade
Created to decide the good and bring repercussive aid
As awareness filled his fame, he examined those who leered
Then he cleaved the air with his fiery stare, rend all those there
REPEAT CHORUS
A day will come, you'll be drawn into the center of your town
And come upon a mass of steel that cracks the very ground
Prepare to meet your judge, don't think to run away
Just pray your face holds no disgrace for the deadly ace
Destroyer, Destroyer, Destroyer
He's in
REPEAT CHORUS
Oh, he's in town
You better stay out of his way
He's gonna kick your ass
Yeah
Destroyer
5. Knife In The Back
Come inside, take a seat or a ride
We're so glad that you're here, now come on
Have a drink of some coke, gasoline or some rope
A guillotine, are you gone?
Don't turn around, ignore that sound
Just lie on this rack, are you starting to crack?
CHORUS:
I need this like a knife in the back
I need this like a knife in the back
Hey, my man, can you feel, can you stand?
That's a shame, really sad, do you want some more?
Like to help if I could but I don't think I should
I don't care, shall I pour?
Just lay right here, nothing to fear
All that you lack will start fading to black
REPEAT CHORUS
Ain't it sad that he's dead, was it something we said?
Such a drag, what could we do?
He was an ass, always smelling of gas
Not at all one of us, the chosen few
He turned around and heard the sound
Those with the knack get to run with the pack
REPEAT CHORUS
I need this
I need this
I need this
Like a knife in the back
6. Under The Blade
A GLINT OF STEEL
A FLASH OF LIGHT
YOU KNOW YOU'RE NOT GOING HOME TONIGHT
BE IT JACK OR SWITCH
DOCTOR'S OR MIND
NOWHERE TO RUN, EVERYWHERE YOU'LL FIND
YOU CAN'T ESCAPE
FROM THE BED YOU'VE MADE
WHEN YOUR TIME HAS COME, YOU'LL ACCEPT THE BLADE!
YOU'RE CORNERED IN THE ALLEY WAY
YOU KNOW YOU'RE ALL ALONE
YOU KNOW IT'S GONNA END THIS WAY
THE CHILL GOES TO THE BONE
NOW HERE IT COMES THAT GLISTENING LIGHT
IT GOES INTO YOUR SIDE
THE BLACKNESS COMES
TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT
THE BLADE IS GONNA RIDE
'CAUSE YOU'RE UNDER THE BLADE
OHHH
YOU'RE UNDER THE BLADE
IT'S NOT ANOTHER PARTY HEAD
THIS TIME YOU CANNOT RISE
YOUR HANDS ARE TIED, YOUR LEGS ARE STRAPPED
A LIGHT SHINES IN YOUR EYES
YOU FAINTLY SEE A RAZOR'S EDGE
YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH TO CRY
YOU KNOW YOU CAN'T
IT'S OVER NOW
THE BLADE IS GONNA RIDE
'CAUSE YOU'RE UNDER THE BLADE
OHHH
YOU'RE UNDER THE BLADE
A GLINT OF STEEL
A FLASH OF LIGHT
YOU KNOW YOU'RE NOT GOING HOME TONIGHT
BE IT JACK OR SWITCH
DOCTOR'S OR MIND
NOWHERE TO RUN, EVERYWHERE YOU'LL FIND
YOU CAN'T ESCAPE
FROM THE BED YOU'VE MADE
WHEN YOUR TIME HAS COME, YOU'LL ACCEPT THE BLADE!
YOU'VE TRIED TO MAKE IT TO THE FRONT
YOU'RE PINNED AGAINST THE SIDE
A MONSTER STANDS BEFORE YOU NOW
ITS MOUTH IS OPEN WIDE
THE LIGHTS GO ON, THE NIGHT EXPLODES
IT TEARS INTO YOUR MIND
WHEN THE NIGHT DOES END, YOU'LL COME AGAIN
THE BLADE IS GONNA RIDE
'CAUSE YOU'RE UNDER THE BLADE
OHHH
YOU'RE UNDER THE BLADE
HERE IT COMES BABY
WHOAAAAAAAHHHH...
YOU'RE GOIN' DOWN, DOWN, DOWN,
DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN...
7. You Cant Stop Rock And Roll
Here it comes, you're never gonna top it
On a run, no way you can stop it
Total style, perfection in decay
Running wild, flat out all the way
CHORUS:
Now you can ride it high
And you can light the way
Lift up your hands in praise
You can't stop rock 'n' roll
You can't stop rock 'n' roll
You can't stop rock 'n' roll
Like a charging bull, it's a juggernaut
With steam at full, never to be caught
Incarnate power, roaring from the sky
While other cower, rock ain't gonna die
REPEAT CHORUS
Ow
It's an angry steed, on a never ending course
With grace and speed, it's an unrelenting force
His head thrown back, defiantly proud
Under constant attack, it's blasting, fast and loud
REPEAT CHORUS
Can't stop, can't you stop it
Can't stop, you can't stop it
Can't stop, can't you stop it
Can't stop, you can't stop it
Can't stop, can't you stop it
Can't stop, you can't stop it
Can't stop, can't you stop it
Can't stop, you can't stop it
Ow
8. I Am, I'm Me
Who are you to look down at what I believe?
I'm on to your thinking and how you deceive
Well, you can't abuse me, I won't stand no more
Yes, I know the reasons, yes, I know the score
CHORUS:
I am and I'll be
I will, you'll see
I am and I'll be
I am: I'm me
How I tried to please you, live the way you said
Do the things that you do, like the living dead
Then the truth it hit me, got me off my knees
It's my life I'm living, i'll live as I please
REPEAT CHORUS
Now's the time to stand tall, start your life anew
Freedom lies in your heart, now's the time for you
REPEAT CHORUS
I am: I'm me
I am: I'm me (can't you see)
I am: I'm me (can't you see, I'm me)
I am: I'm me (I'm me, me, me, me, me)
I am: I'm me (I am: I'm me)
I am: I'm me (I am: I'm me, can't you see)
I am: I'm me (can't you see, I'm me)
I am: I'm me (I'm me, I'm me)
I am: I'm me (I am: I'm me)
I am: I'm me (I am: I'm me, everything)
I am: I'm me (I'm me, I'm me)
I am: I'm me (I'm me, look at me)
I am: I'm me (I am: I'm me)
I am: I'm me (I am: I'm me)
I am: I'm me (I am: I'm me)
9. The Fire Still Burns
You thought it was gone but the fire goes on and I thought you knew me
I told you before 'til I settle the score that I'll never run free
I have enough pain and anger in my brain to last many lifetimes
Yet still it grows and the more that it shows I won't have peace of mind
CHORUS:
The fire, the fire still burns
The fire, the fire still burns
I have a dream and as strange as it seems, there's no embers glowing
The fire's gone out and there's no need to shout 'cause no anger's showing
But it's not true, nothing I ever do seems to ease my fury
Get out of my way, I'm the hangman today and the judge and jury
REPEAT CHORUS (twice)
Solo - Eddie
Fire, fire still burns
Fire, fire still burns
Fire, fire still burns
Fire, fire still burns
Fire, fire still burns
Fire, fire still burns
Solo - Jay Jay
REPEAT CHORUS (three times)
10. Ride To Live, Live To Ride
Hard roads and endless lines flow through his veins
Cold steel and hot fuel injected 's the dream that fills his brain
But no, not slow, the speed fever grows
He rides, he sees, he knows
CHORUS:
You've got to ride to live, live to ride
Feel the flames burn inside
And though you know, you ride to hide
You ride to live to ride
Life's short and goes too fast, most pages burn
Don't wait, the end's too near, some people never learn
You all won't fall, the road fever calls
So run or fly, don't crawl
REPEAT CHORUS
Ride on and don't look back, you can't change what's done
Drive hard for grater glories, you all must be someone
So win, don't show, let the life fever go
The world is yours you know
You've got to ride to live, live to ride
Feel the flames burn inside
And though you know, you ride to hide
You ride to live to
REPEAT CHORUS
11. Shoot 'Em Down
Come on, boys!
Ow!
She looks so fine like champagne or wine, no one ever gets her
Oh, ain't she cool, plays us for fools if we wanna let her
Across the room she sees some buffoon blown away by her style
She goes out of her way so that she can play and make him beg for a little while
CHORUS:
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down to the ground
Like caviar or a fine foreign car, he's a motivator
Dressed to the T's, they're down on their knees, he's master baiter
He'll make 'em crawl for the hell of it all, he likes to see 'em cry
And then just for fun he'll say she's the one and then he'll make her die
He's gonna
REPEAT CHORUS
They don't care about feelings, they were meant to be stepped on
And while one is healing, they go and step on another one
Now, these people prey on us every day, some are bad, some badder
They think we're fools, so they make their own rules, it only gets us madder
Well, they think they're hot, well, I say they're not, they shoot us down for fun
If they wanna play, let's make 'em pay, shoot them down with a fuckin' gun
REPEAT CHORUS
Come on now!
REPEAT CHORUS
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
Shoot 'em down, shoot 'em down
We shoot them down, come on, honey
Shoot them down, come on, shoot 'em down
12. We're Not Gonna Take It
We're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore
We've got the right to choose and there ain't no way we'll lose it
This is our life, this is our song
We'll fight the powers that be just, don't pick our destiny 'cause
You don't know us, you don't belong
Oh, you're so condescending, your gall is never ending
We don't want nothin', not a thing, from you
Your life is trite and jaded, boring and confiscated
If that's your best, your best won't do
Oh
Oh
We're right, yeah
We're free, yeah
We'll fight, yeah
You'll see, yeah
We're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore
No way
Solo - Eddie
Oh
Oh
We're right, yeah
We're free, yeah
We'll fight, yeah
You'll see, yeah
We're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore
We're not gonna take it (no)
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore (just you try and make us)
We're not gonna take it (come on)
No, we ain't gonna take it (you're all worthless and weak)
We're not gonna take it anymore (now drop and give me twenty)
We're not gonna take it (a pledge pin)
No, we ain't gonna take it (on your uniform)
We're not gonna take it anymore
13. The Price
How long I have wanted this dream to come true
And as it approaches, I can't believe I'm through
I've tried, oh, how I've tried
For a life, yes a life, I thought I knew
Oh, it's the price we gotta pay and all the games we gotta play
Makes me wonder if it's worth it to carry on
'Cause it's a game we gotta lose, though it's a life we gotta choose
And the price is our own life until it's done
Time seems to have frozen but the mind can be fooled
As the days pass I discover, destiny just can't be ruled
Hard times, oh, hard times
For the prize, yes the prize, I thought I knew
Oh, it's the price we gotta pay and all the games we gotta play
Makes me wonder if it's worth it to carry on
'Cause it's a game we gotta lose, though it's a life we gotta choose
And the price is our own life until it's done
Solo - Eddie
Oh, it's the price we gotta pay and all the games we gotta play
Makes me wonder if it's worth it to carry on
'Cause it's a game we gotta lose, though it's a life we gotta choose
And the price is our own life until it's done
14. Burn In Hell
Introduction - Eddie
Welcome to the abandoned land
Come on in child, take my hand
Here there's no work or play, only one bill to pay
There's just five words to say as you go down, down, down
You're gonna burn in hell
Oh, burn in hell
You can't believe all the things I've done wrong in my life
Without even trying I've lived on the edge of a knife
Well, I've played with fire, but I don't want to get myself burned
To thine own self be true, so I think that it's time for a turn
Before I burn in hell
Oh, burn in hell
Take a good look in your heart, tell me what do you see
It's black and it's dark, now is that how you want it to be?
It's up to you, what you do will decide your own fate
Make your choice now for tomorrow may be far too late
And then you'll burn in hell
Hear no evil, don't you
See no evil, don't you (oh, burn in hell)
Lay no evil down on me (you're gonna burn in hell)
Speak no evil, don't you
Think no evil, don't you (oh, burn in hell)
Play with evil, 'cause I'm free
Solo - left: Eddie, right: Jay Jay
Hear no evil, don't you
See no evil, don't you
Lay no evil down on me (you're gonna burn in hell)
Speak no evil, don't you
Think no evil, don't you
Play with evil, 'cause I'm free (you're gonna burn in hell)
Hear no evil, don't you
See no evil, don't you (oh, burn in hell)
Lay no evil down on me (you're gonna burn in hell)
Speak no evil, don't you
Think no evil, don't you (oh, burn in hell)
Play with evil, 'cause I'm free
You're gonna burn in hell
Hear no evil, don't you
See no evil, don't you (oh, burn in hell)
Lay no evil down on me
15. I Wanna Rock
I wanna rock! (rock)
I wanna rock! (rock)
I want to rock (rock)

Turn it down you say
But all I got to say to you is time and time again I say, "no!"
No! No, no, no, no, no!
Tell me not to play
Well, all I got to say to when you tell me not to play I say, "no!"
No! No, no, no, no, no!
So, if you ask me why I like the way I play it
There's only one thing I can say to you
I wanna rock! (rock)
I wanna rock! (rock)
I want to rock (rock)
I wanna rock! (rock)
There's a feelin' that
I get from nothin' else and there ain't nothin' in the world that makes me go!
Go! Go, go, go, go, go!
Turn the power up
I've waited for so long so I could hear my favorite song so, let's go!
Go! Go, go, go, go, go!
When it's like this I feel the music shootin' through me
There's nothin' else that I would rather do
I wanna rock! (rock)

16. Come Out And Play
Twisted Sister, come out and play
Twisted Sister, come out and play
Twisted Sister, come out and play
Twisted Sister, come out and play
Are you afraid of things that go bump in the night?
Behind closet doors are things when you turn out the light
Don't be afraid of the night, there's a light in the dark burning bright
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be afraid of the light
Come inside our world, an oyster 'round a pearl
You'll all be safe inside, a perfect place to hide, you'll see
Fun by decree
Ride above the storm, the average and the norm
A newfound ecstasy, a wild fantasy come true
This one's for you
Oh, welcome to our show
Oh, welcome to our life
Just follow me and you'll set yourself free
Now won't you come out and play
CHORUS:
Come out and play, come on out and play
Come out and play, come on out and play
Come out and play, come on out and play
Come out and play. come on out and play
Solo - Jay Jay
Join our cavalcade, enter the world you made
We're only here for you to do what you won't do, you know
On with the show
A place where fallacy becomes reality
We'll spin your head around, we're programmed to astound, stand by
Prepare to fly
Oh, welcome to our show
Oh, welcome to our life
Just follow me and you'll think that you're free
Now won't you come out and play
REPEAT CHORUS
17. S.M.F.
