1. This Means War

Now living here just ain't good enough for those of you wearing red ties
Just you breating makes our leaders rush to the shelters still watching the skies
I'll feed off your vilest dreams it's not as bad as it seems
It's now or never as I'm left with these mouths to feed
I wanna see all those rivers bleed
Do you know just what this means...war!
They think that we don't know what's going on
With all their satelliteski spies it don't matter where they're coming from
Do we still have to give up our lives?
I'll feed off your vilest dreams it's not as bad as it seems...
Cos it's now or never as I'm left with these mouths to feed
I wanna see all those rivers bleed
Do you know just what this means...war!
This means war, this means war, this means war, this means war
Get out of my way mother...
Don't it seems stupid that we're sitting here and soon there'll be nothing left
We can't go on pretending that we're unaware and laughing in the face of death
I'll feed off your vilest dreams it's not as bad as it seems...
Cos it's now or never as I'm left with these mouths to feed
I wanna see all those rivers bleed
Do you know just what this means...war!
This means war, this means war, this means war, this means war.




2. Echoes of a Distant Battle

Flame on! They're coming down from the hills
Attacking from both sides... they're closing in for the kill it's only a matter of time...
We're running out of ammo fast we must stand at the line, every man to the last
They're all around us, so no get away each and every hour, it goes on all day
Use the blade and run them through... with no shot left, what else can we do
Where are they coming from?
Echoes of a distant battle... echoes, echoes of a distant battle... echoes
They're saluting us as warriors there's hardly a man alive...
They disappear in a cloud of dust and attack for the last time...
We're running out of ammo fast we must stand at the line, every man to the last
They're all around us, so no get away each and every hour, it goes on all day
Use the blade and run them through... with no shot left, what else can we do
Where are they coming from?
Echoes of a distant battle... echoes, echoes of a distant battle... echoes
They came down from the hills attacked from both sides
They closed in for the kill hit us for the last time
We're running out of ammo fast we must stand at the line, every man to the last
They're all around us, so no get away each and every hour, it goes on all day
Use the blade and run them through... with no shot left, what else can we do
Where are they coming from?
Echoes of a distant battle... echoes, echoes of a distant battle... echoes.




3. That's What Dreams Are Made Of

Love is like dragging your balls across barbed wire
She rehearses every day from a hang glider she had a wrestling bout
With a trope of local sea scouts got them all in a pool of mud
All the time wearing boxing gloves you can hear them crying from the third floor above
That's What Dreams Are Made Of...
She wears pit boots, woodbines and loves being dirty
Her bank manager plays dog says wood and don't hurt me
You've seen her magazines how the hell does she keep her teeth clean
Doing something that's loosely termed love all the time wearing boxing gloves
She's got the cheek to say she's on a mission from God
That's What Dreams Are Made Of...
You've seen her magazines how the hell does she keep her teeth clean
Doing something that's loosely termed love all the time wearing boxing gloves
She's got the cheek to say she's on a mission from God
That's What Dreams Are Made Of...




4. And Then We Heard the Thunder

Tornado's a coming mother nature's main event storm chasers running
To the scene of the accident a car lies broken at the side of the road
Someone trapped inside but who will know a gas line's broke, it's on fire
It will explode debris falls from the sky the sheer force, the sheer power
It mystifies we all have a time to die but it's time to say goodbye...
And then we heard the thunder so loud it shook the ground
And then we heard the thunder such an awesome sound
The wreck is still burning Detroit metal, twisted and bent
There's no point returning as those inside are heaven sent
We just stand and watch and cry with remorse, we cower
Under dangerous skies we all have a time to die but it's time to say goodbye...
And then we heard the thunder so loud it shook the ground
And then we heard the thunder such an awesome sound.




5. Don't Walk Away

Get down six feet under
I wish she would, your fat blanket mother
She growls and roars like thunder
A mouth so big, the eighth world wonder
She wants me to throw her daughter away
And pick her up instead...

Don't walk away (Don't walk away)
Don't walk away (Don't walk away)

Yes another cunning plot, to get me under her covers
Dior stockings and nothing on top
She ain't like a normal mother
I wish I was a million miles away
So I can't hear her say...

Don't walk away (Don't walk away)
Don't walk away (Don't walk away)

Don't don't walk away
Don't don't walk away
Don't don't walk away

When will this dreadful nightmare end?
I really don't want another
That fat blanket woman drives me round and bend
How can you get lower when hell is in the gutter
I wish I was a million miles away
So I can't hear her say...

Don't walk away (Don't walk away)
Don't walk away (Don't walk away)
Don't walk away (Don't walk away)
Don't walk away (Don't walk away)




6. Honour and Blood

Are those ours, over head why can't they shoot the enemy instead
We took the King's shilling for killing the hun
Over there, they must be blind they think we're singing songs to pass time
Walking through land mines ain't really much fun
Seeing those blue skies reminds me of home
They seem to forget we're made of flesh, blood and bone
But we didn't come here to die on our own to be remembered in a tower of stone
For their honour for their honour and their blood, honour and blood
See the fear in our eyes they kick us to make sure we're still alive
To fulfill the duty of shooting someone if I were dead I'd understand
But I never thought that I could kill a man
Maybe tomorrow I won't see the sun
Seeing those blue skies reminds me of home
They seem to forget we're made of flesh, blood and bone
But we didn't come here to die on our own to be remembered in a tower of stone
For their honour for their honour and their blood, honour and blood
Are those ours, over head why can't they shoot the enemy instead
We took the King's shilling for killing the hun
Over there, they must be blind they think we're singing songs to pass time
Walking through land mines ain't really much fun
Seeing those blue skies reminds me of home
They seem to forget we're made of flesh, blood and bone
But we didn't come here to die on our own to be remembered in a tower of stone
For their honour for their honour and their blood, honour and blood.




7. Power of the Hunter

Hold on to your toupees!
The end is coming closer now every word is said in spite
They ain't getting any younger they're too old to live by the knife
Can't you see it in their eyes can't you see it in their eyes
Their sick and tired of waiting now the hunters on the attack
Before they started fighting they knew damn well, they're not coming back
Can't you see it in their eyes can't you see it in their eyes
Don't believe it, look behind get your arse out of there, run for your life
Feel the power of the hunter...
So many of them wasted they'll never know what war's about
Those we loved, now are hated now all hell is breaking out
Can't you see it in their eyes can't you see it in their eyes
Don't believe it, look behind get your arse out of there, run for your life
Feel the power of the hunter...
And now that's over we'll never know how many died
At the tomb of the unknown soldier I hope the cowards are satisfied
Can't you see it in their eyes can't you see it in their eyes
Don't believe it, look behind get your arse out of there, run for your life
Feel the power of the hunter...




8. Shellshock

Hated you, for far too long you're just so damn polite
You've been screaming , shouting all night long that you want to get wrecked tonight
I don't know when to stop I just get enough...Shellshock!
It's getting late in the evening I can't wait to turn the lights out
Come down from the ceiling don't stop just burn me out
I don't know when to stop I just get enough...Shellshock!
Some of the things you do I just don't understand
But those strange things that you do must mean you're going mad
I don't know when to stop I just get enough...Shellshock!
Those strange things that you give me you give me...Shellshock!
