1. Riptor
One bad day I'd put my computer on...
It took a while before I noticed there was something wrong
A nasty little creature stared at me from the screen.
After a little while he started an awful scream:
Continue... Continue... Continue...
I`m RIPTOR...
You are RIPTOR...
We all are RIPTOR...
It's nice to be Riptor!
It took a while before I started to feel stranger.
And still I was not aware of the danger.
Suddenly we started to change faces.
Moreover we started to change places...
I`m RIPTOR...
You are RIPTOR...
We all are RIPTOR...
It's nice to be Riptor!
In this strange digital world I'd meet a lot of strange things.
Heads & tails, paws & claws, strings & wings, thangs & stings.
Will I ever again be myself???????
Will somebody please, the computer from the shelf?
2. As the World Burns
Imagine an old man
Sittin' in the shade
Sittin' in front of his house
Sittin' and watchin' the world
From under his hat
While he is watchin' her
While she is dancin'
Dancin' in a black veil
Barefoot dancin'
In a black veil
See that old man
Sittin'in the shade
Sittin' and chewin' coka leaves
Sittin' and starin' into the dessert
From under his hat
While he is watchin' her
While she is dancin'
Dancin' in a black veil
Barefoot dancin'
In a black veil
Yo woman of evil
Why did yo do all that to me
While I was livin' my live.
Yo evil woman
Why did yo have to do that to me,
I was mindin' my own business.
I was doin' my own thing
Never sittin' on someone else's chair.
Doin' my own thing
Not treatin' anybody unfair.
Meanwhile yo was spreadin'
Yo evil ways and hurt
Me and my people
Until there was no one left
To talk to while yo
Was dancin'
And still dancin´…
As the world burns
As the world burns
3. Overthere
Life is better
Overthere
Always better
Overthere
So much better
Overthere
Overthere
Someone was sayin'
Grass is greener overthere.
But I know when you get there,
And overthere is here
Then here will be overthere.
Someone once said
You better take the best
Of both worlds anywhere.
But how can you be here
And at the same time overthere?
Someone sang a song
About a certain ferryboat
That crossed a mighty broad stream.
He had his doubts
HE HAD HIS DOUBTS, he was in pain,
And then the boat sank, as he screamed.
4. Follow Your Bliss
Death takes a lifetime
Lifelight's goin' out.
This is the right time
But what's it all about.
Candle's still burning
The fire makes no sound.
Planets keep on turning
Slowly going round.
Birds stop singing
They're falling from the trees
Deathbringer's killing
Murders everything it sees.
Follow your bliss
Follow your bliss
5. Hammer of the North
We follow the head of the dragon
As it tells us where we go.
We are the hammer
We are the hammer
We are the hammer.
Like in that vision
They showed us how to travel.
All the lands as far
As you can see.
Like in the myths
Given by the Gods and the Dragon
We have to travel
The seven seas.
Like in old days stories
Told by our elders
We should go and leave
All places burned.
Like in the message
From the other side, from Walhallah
We will leave no stone unturned.
6. Rise, Shine and Fall
Cinderella
Very talented
Great looks
Bright aura
Lovely girl
Enters downfall
Disappointentment
No succes at all
Gettin' old
Rock 'n' roll
Ramboninho
Very strong
Handsome and bright
Clever and straight
Doin'it all
Enters downfall
Accidents will happen
No future at all
Gettin' fat and lazy
Finally gettin' crazy
Metal Mad Donna
Made it in the world
Always number one
Sings a better song
Gettin' along
Enters downfall
Evil attacks the livin'
No beauty at all
Nothing will remain
Again 'n' again
7. Where's My Gun
Chapter 1:
They came in here
Filled me with fear
Dark shades and strange shadows on the ceiling.
They started to sweat
Everything got wet
I'd like to have another kinda feeling.
Chapter 2:
They're not what it seems
Like it always is in dreams
All these terrible threatenin' eyes starin' at my face
They will never leave no more
And they glued me to the floor
Who the hell wants to be in my place?
Chorus:
Where's my gun
I'll pull the trigger
Where's my gun
I'll pull the trigger on you.
Last Chapter:
So they glued me to the floor
They won't do that no more
Now it is my time to have some good old fun
And everything they said
I know I'll soon forget
Just wait till I find my gun.
8. Bitin'
I like to use my mighty teeth
And yes I'm proud of them indeed.
I put everything I see in my mouth
When it gets stuck full I spit it out.
My dentist wants to be a friend
Attacks bad teeth with a faster hand.
This is what I like to do
Oh, I need a bite or two
And I need something to chew
Babe, I like to chew on you.
I want to bite you babe
I need to bite you baby
I'm cravin' to bite you baby
I'm dying to bite you baby.
