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

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

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

Ride on and don't look back you can't change what's done

Drive hard for greater 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

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

Machine Gun

Move into the front, underhanded fire

Hear the bullets flying, millions every hour

Tracers in the night, shooting 'cross the sky

For God's sake help me, I don't wanna die

Machine gun

Over the top, into the wire

Running like a madman, into the fire

No-mans land, fighting for your life

Fighting hand to hand, forced to use your knife

Machine gun

Come the wheels of terror, crushing all before

Chews you to the bone, to hear the monster's roar

With the clash of iron, the battle's never won

For the forgotten soldier, it's only just begun

Machine gun

It's gonna shoot you down

Move into the front, underhanded fire

Hear the bullets flying, millions every hour

Tracers in the night, shooting 'cross the sky

For God's sake help me, I don't wanna die

Machine gun

Come the wheels of terror, crushing all before

Chews you to the bone, to hear the monster's roar

With the clash of iron, the battle's never won

For the forgotten soldier, it's only just begun

Machine gun

It's gonna shoot you down

Battery

Lashing out the action, returning the reaction

Weak are ripped and torn away

Hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower

Battery is here to stay

Smashing through the boundaries

lunacy has found me

cannot stop the Battery

Pounding out aggression

turns into obsession

cannot kill the Battery

Cannot kill the family

Battery is found in me

Battery

Crushing all deceivers, mashing non-believers

never ending potency

Hungry violence seeker, feeding off the weaker

Breeding on insanity

Smashing through the boundaries

lunacy has found me

cannot stop the Battery

Pounding out aggression

turns into obsession

cannot kill the Battery

Cannot kill the family

Battery is found in me

Battery

Circle of Destruction, hammer comes crushing

Powerhouse of energy

Whipping up a fury, dominating flurry

We create the Battery

Smashing through the boundaries

lunacy has found me

cannot stop the Battery

Pounding out aggression

turns into obsession

cannot kill the Battery

Cannot kill the family

Battery is found in me

Battery

Youthanasia

Who'd believe with the way things are here

We'd be going anywhere telling people how to live?

Who'd believe we'd spend more shippin' drugs and guns

Than to educate our sons? Sorry but that's what they did

I can't help but think

Someone's forsaken you and me

Luck deserted me and the truth beat out my brains

Men rise on stepping stones of their selves to higher things

I've stepped over lots of bodies on my way

Thanks for the information don't need no more anything

I can't help but think

Someone's forsaken you and me

We are the damned of all the world

With saddness in our hearts

The wounded of the wars

We've been hung out to dry

You didn't want us anyway

And now we're making up our minds

You tell us how to run our lives

We run for youthanasia

We are the damned of all the world

With saddness in our hearts

The wounded of the wars

We've been hung out to dry

You didn't want us anyway

And now we're making up our minds

You tell us how to run our lives

We run for youthanasia

We are the damned of all the world

With saddness in our hearts

The wounded of the wars

We run for youthanasia

Exciter

Racing cross the heavens straight into the dawn

Looking like a comet slicing through the morn

Scorching the horizon, blazing to the land

Now he’s here amongst us, the age of fire’s at hand

Stand by for Exciter

Salvation is his task

Stand by for Exciter

Salvation bids to ask

Everything he touches fries into a crisp

Let him get close to you so you’re in his trip

First you’ll smoke and smolder, blister up and singe

When ignition hits you the very soul of your being will cringe

Stand by for Exciter

Salvation is his task

Stand by for Exciter

Here he comes now

Fall to your knees and repent if you please

Who is this man? Where is he from?

Exciter comes for everyone

You'll never see him but you will taste the fire upon your tongue

He's come to make you snap out of the state that you are in

Looks around and make you see the light again

So much self-indulgence results in shattered eyes

Predominant complacency leads to beguiling lies

Stand by for Exciter

Salvation is his task

Stand by for Exciter

Salvation bids to ask

When he leaps amidst us with combustive dance

All shall bear the branding of his thermal lance

Cauterizing masses melting into one

Only when there's order will his job be done

Stand by for Exciter

Salvation is his task

Stand by for Exciter

Here he comes now

Bow to your knees and repent if you please

Who is this man? Where is he from?

Exciter comes for everyone

You'll never see him but you will taste the fire upon your tongue

Racing cross the heavens straight into the dawn

Looking like a comet slicing through the morn

Scorching the horizon, blazing to the land

Now he’s here amongst us, the age of fire’s at hand

Stand by for Exciter

Aces High

There goes the siren that warns of the air raid

Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak

Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne

Got to get up for the coming attack.

Jump in the cockpit and start up the engine

Remove all the wheelblocks there's no time to waste

Gathering speed as we head down the runway

Gotta get airborne before it's too late

Running, scrambling, flying

Rolling, turning, diving, going in again

Running, scrambling, flying

Rolling, turning, diving

Run, live to fly

Fly to live, do or die

Won't you run, live to fly

Fly to live. Aces high

Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers

Let off a sharp burst and then turn away

Roll over, spin round to come in behind them

Move to their blindsides and fire in again.

Bandits at 8 O'clock move in behind us

Ten ME-109's out of the sun

Ascending and turning our spitfires to face them

Heading straight for them I press down my guns

Rolling, turning, diving

Rolling, turning, diving, going in again

Rolling, turning, diving

Run, live to fly

Fly to live, do or die

Won't you run, live to fly

Fly to live, Aces high

Cheap Wine & Cheaper Women

Walking through the city

It's lonely heartbreak streets

The wind gives a chill as the sun begins to weep

Don't know where I'm goin'

Don't know where I've been

But the nights coming down and I'm feeling good again

Cheap Wine

And cheaper women

Give me cheap wine

And cheaper women

Had myself a lady

To hold me tight and warm

To keep out the cold and make love til' the dawn

Yeah she loved me tender

And she loved me sweet

But then she kicked me out and now I'm on the street

Cheap Wine

And cheaper women

Give me cheap wine

And cheaper women

Women come and go

They never do remain

They take more than they give but it's me who's to blame

I'm at the bottom of the bottle

And nothin's all I got

Yeah it may not be the answer but it sure does hit the spot

Cheap Wine

And cheaper women

Give me cheap wine

And cheaper women

Cheap Wine

And cheaper women

Give me cheap wine

And cheaper women

Give me cheap wine

Let There Be Rock

In the beginning

Back in nineteen fifty-five

Man didn't know about a rock 'n' roll show

And all that jive

The white man had the smoltz

The black man had the blues

No one knew what they was gonna do

But Tchaikovsky had the news

He said

"Let there be sound", and there was sound

"Let there be light", and there was light

"Let there be drums", and there was drums

"Let there be guitar", and there was guitar

"Let there be rock"

And it came to pass

That rock 'n' roll was born

All across the land every rockin' band

Was blowing up a storm

The guitarman got famous

The businessman got rich

And in every bar there was a super star

With a seven year itch

There were fifteen million fingers

Learning how to play

And you could hear the fingers picking

And this is what they had to say

"Let there be light"

"Sound"

"Drums"

"Guitar"

"Let there be rock"

One night in a club called `The Shaking Hand'

There was a fourty-two decibel rocking band

The music was good and the music was loud

And the singer turned and he said to the crowd -

"Let there be rock"
