RUNNING WILD LYRICS

The Privateer

"The Privateer" (1994 Single)

1. The Privateer
2. Dancing on a Minefield
3. Poisoned Blood







1. The Privateer

The privateer is watching,
the moon provides the only light
Roaring winds are blowing,
a flag appears out of the night
Guns are spitting fire,
the cannonball tears up the rail
The vessel's changing course,
the thunderstorm blows up the sail

A furious fight is raging, red-hot cannon's shooting hard
Ironballs are flying, tearing all the planks apart

His all seeing spy-glass is aiming at the sea
No mariner has the slightest chance to flee
His crystal-ball's revealing where he has to steer
He fights the covered evil without fear

Oh, the privateer

The sea-dog's reaimed in legends,
it said he had the second sight
His assignment must be holy,
he fought the fight with power and pride
The key to ancient wisdom,
the power to have seen the truth
He'll return to holy ground,
where his tortured soul had died in youth

His all seeing spy-glass is aiming at the sea
No mariner has the slightest chance to flee
His crystal-ball's revealing where he has to steer
He fights the covered evil without fear

Oh, the privateer

His all seeing spy-glass is aiming at the sea
No mariner has the slightest chance to flee
His crystal-ball's revealing where he has to steer
He fights the covered evil without fear

Oh, the privateer




2. Dancing on a Minefield

Nuclear tests that reap up wealth for the rich
They're selling their souls like a rotten sleazy bitch
Contaminated children are born to live in pain
No common sense if avarice rules the game

Atomic power is a dangerous and useless toy
Telling people, it's harmless is a cunning ploy
Allegiance is their ally so they do as they please
They are firm in their saddle no critics there to tease

Watch out there gonna blast you
Their bombs are made to kill
Contracts made for profit
Until they've got their fill

Dancing on a minefield
After the blast then you're dying fast
Dancing on a minefield
Poisoning life and no one will survive

Politicians get their share when they cheat and lie
The atomic lobby gets rich when the children die
Setting the world on fire like playing a game
Like an insane arsonist who's lighting the flame

Watch out there gonna blast you
Their bombs are made to kill
Contracts made for profit
Until they've got their fill

Dancing on a minefield
After the blast then you're dying fast
Dancing on a minefield
Poisoning life and no one will survive




3. Poisoned Blood

Slaves to money, bad to the bone
Blood is running through veins unknown
Mindless liars, stonedead souls
Putting you straight into a hole
Virus soiled, you're life's the toll

Covering up, their dirty deed
No turning back, they're just a bad seed

Poisoned blood, money slaves
Poisoned blood, young man's grave
Poisoned blood, selling death
Poisoned blood, so take you're last breath

Hell bound killers, germs of death
Their wealth comes first, your life comes last
HIV, the blood is pooled, money's prime, so greed has ruled
You're jaded body's the one who's fooled

Evil suppression, hiding the truth
No compassion, betraying the youth
Getting rich from lies they've told, selling your life, rotten and
bold
Pound for pound you're measured in gold

Covering up, their dirty deed
No turning back, they're just a bad seed

Poisoned blood, money slaves
Poisoned blood, young man's grave
Poisoned blood, selling death
Poisoned blood, so take you're last breath
