Warrant lyrics
Album: The Enforcer/First Strike [1985]
| The Rack | |
|
i don't like anything you do
controlling me like a fool
get lost
full of disguises and dirty lies
you've never known the poorest life
get lost
fat politician, what's in your head
i'll kick your ass, you`re driving me mad
chorus
i got no more hope
call for the rack
no future for me
call for the rack
brothers killing brothers
devil's children are being born
get lost
I'm running wild, getting higher
revenge is my only desire
get lost
die you bastards, crawl down to hell
you lousy creatures, believe what i say
|
| Ordeal Of Death | |
|
look in the sky the stars are shining bright
but our lives are in danger, days turning to night
a deadly craze
god will set us free
together we'll be born again
chorus
ordeal of death
up on the throne
ordeal of death
destroying the world
feel the flames
got no chance to hide
ordeal of death
turnin' out the light
atomic explosions, our hopes and dreams are lost
corpses are rotting, are rotting mankind
a lost embrace
god let me be an honest man
guilt is not on my side
chorus
space is empty mother earth is blown away
like a vanton vulture the devil takes the rest
no second chance
souls cry out for revenge
their words are no use now
|
| Nuns Have No Fun | |
|
they lived in a convent
no entrance for the outer world
love is not allowed
between their legs
i don't understand it
how can they live without a man
don't they feel a great temptation
lonley nights
chorus
nuns have no fun, they are always on the run
nuns have no fun, they are always on the run
words like fucking
they don't wanna' know
but deep inside their souls
dirty jokes
only vibrators
can make them high
a risk much too dangerous
god's waiting inside
chorus
now we just feel obliged
to help them for a while
we can bring their problems
to an end
you can make them happy
for the rest of their lives
they only need a little lovin'
to survive
|
| Send Ya To Hell | |
|
banging around, pounding the ground
forget all the trouble you've had,
there's no way out
death comes from above
powder lies everywhere
dreaming of a better earth
noone sees what you deserve
you lying preachers
live or die, don't ask why
mankind don't have no hope
shout it out that we're not proud
to fight for our fatherland
we are numbers in a game
the game is deadly a total disgrace
you lying preachers
chorus
we'll send ya to hell
you preachers...
chorus
banging around, pounding the ground
forget all the trouble you've had,
there is no way out
death comes from above
powder lies everywhere
faces of death comin' on fast
the pest is spreading you are the last
you lying preachers
|
| The Enforcer | |
|
he lived in the past
executioner is his name
he had sworn to wipe out evil
others told him
what to do
his job was to kill parasites
we need him today
to do what we say
he is our last chance
chorus
the enforcer
save us now
the enforcer
smash the rulers, bring them down
the enforcer
your axe is dynamite
the enforcer
we'll ride by your side
look, can't you see
we only want to have fun
but some bastards trying to spoil it
wars of aggression
are in the air
the will to live's gone forever
some heads will have to roll
to satisfy our souls
we need him to survive
chorus
the enforcer...
time, wind and rain
are far away
the earth's been blown to bits
break the spell
or go to hell
the viper's mouth is deadly
we need him today
to do what we say
he is our last chance
chorus
the enforcer...

| Die Young | |
|
heavy metal is my life, someday i'll be a star
sometimes downcast, sometimes high
rolling down the road
pleasure is the only thing,
which satisfy's my needs
but the end will come soon
i'm gonna have to die, the devil will get me
chorus
die young, die young, die young
my love of guitar, my love of song
makes me feel so strong
playing loud, playing fast
the show must go on
fucking groupies all night long,
just see me turning on
but the end will come soon
i'm gonna have to die, the devil will get me
chorus

| Torture In The Tower | |
|
late in the night when i close my eyes
my thoughts oscillate
in the tunnel of life and death
it's so cold, it's so dark as i try to get free
red eyes of fire staring at me
chorus
torture in the tower,
they're coming down on me
torture in the tower,
is it real or fantasy
i see a hangman, staring at me
i get the feeling, he's waiting for me
my sweat's running cold
the axe falls through the air
my head is falling, my soul screams in despair
|
| Cowards Or Martyrs | |
|
the same old song 'bout how the world'll go on
the world we're living in is a commercial bomb
shall we break thouugh the wall?
or shall we begin a deadly war?
chorus
say what you think
cowards or martyrs
say what you think?
cowards or martyrs
shall we run or shall we hide?
warbinger can't tell me no more lies
the persecution of evil
is our only chance
chorus
soldiers of metal save us now
we place our hopes in you
god 'll give you the benediction
and you'll never ever die
|
| Satan | |
|
knives and bullets, that's my sacred duty
i fell into disgrace with the priests
they get me down, i feel depressed
the life of the pope remains the same
i'm a new satan, i'll kill them all
i'm a new satan, die
i'm a new satan, i'll kill them all
i'm a new satan, right
chorus
satan, believer
the master of the universe
satan, believer
the master of the universe
call me i'm waiting for you in the dead of night
my craving for oppression
can take your pain and fright
now you're under my control and see the fright
all the life is stolen or borrowed
i'm a new satan, i'll kill them all
i'm a new satan, die
i'm a new satan, i'll kill them all
i'm a new satan, right
chorus
i'm a new satan, i'll kill them all
i'm a new satan, die
i'm a new satan, i'll kill them all
i'm a new satan, right
chorus
i'll come out tonight
i'll take all the power
death rides on my side
a blood redden shower
|
| Ready To Command | |
|
the nights of the round table
read the message of king arthur's disappearance
oh galvin wants to take the crown from camelot
his hangman waits for the victims so innocent
chorus
no time to loose, we never see the king
merlin the wise, put power in my hands
i'll capture galvin and take him to the king
i'm waiting for a sign
ready to command
we suspect a palace intrigue
but i know the sand of time is running fast
i take my armour and ride to unknown fortress
merlins prediction gives me a chance
chorus
after the liberation, from the prison
the king shows galvin his destiny
i take my horse and ride off to liberty
arthur says: " good night, thanks for your loyalty. "

| Condemned Forever | |
|
the vampires life is hard and tough
he never gets a chance to live
he's a lonely man, without heart for you
he's coming back to you
a killer on the loose
he's reaching out for blood
the enemy of god
chorus
so little girl watch out tonight
he'll come before it's dawn
he's a sinner without a heart
so ride straight to your home
condemned forever
he never thinks the same as you
he's a victim of evil
he's on the hunt for girls like you
creeping around at night
condemned forever
hostility is his only friend
the prince of the night
he's gonna destroy your mind
a sinner to you
i'm asking: "is it true"
always dressed in black
somewhere on the attack
chorus
condemned forever...

| Scavenger's Daughter | |
|
scavenger's daughter is hell
london was born in a mystic time
death came in lifes place
someone in prison just never came out
to see the world's two faces
the worlds disgraces
evil walking, evil telling him to strike back
chorus
run, fight, kill
scavenger's daughter is hell
breakout, believe, be free
scavenger's daughter is hell
scavenger's daughter is hell...
life was hard, full of pain
everyday's the same
kings and crowns held the people down
they always made them sweat
and broke their necks
death came nearer, slowly nearer at night
chorus
kings were born to bring ya' death
kings where born to break their necks
life was as hot as hot as hell
life was full events like a spell
|
| Flame Of The Show | |
|
the city where we're gonna play tonight
is closed to my heart
the magic is great, the feeling is right
noone can tear us apart
there's only one answer
together as one
lolike a magnet to steel
it turns me on like dynamite
chorus
don't put out the flame of the show
don't let it end, just carry on, and on and on
don't put out the flame of the show, oh no
don't let it end, just carry on, and on...
don't change this feelin', keep it for good
so take what i give
you got the choice, you know what it means
i'm your pleasure machine
makes me hell and fire
time and again
don't wanna say goodbye
we're flying high through the sky
chorus
|
| When The Sirens Call | |
|
the eyes of a billion people
are watching the sky
the day has come, the majesty's arrived
screaming and crying
a mankind in despair
but we should know we can't go on this way...
when the sirens call
when the sirens call
when the sirens call
don't be afraid, when it's all over now
save the action in your mind
worn out, at a loss, lost in paradise
the sound of sirens everywhere
power, the infinite universe
death, the past will fade away...
chorus
oh it's too late
when the sirens call
no matter who you were before, before
oh it's too late
when the sirens call
but it's you they wanted dead
when the sirens call
when the sirens call
when the sirens call
the world is shocked, crying out for help
face the mirror, all we see is pain
a second chance, they've come to save our souls
annihilation to animate the world
lost, it's coming down to earth
death comes nearer to take lifes place
chorus
when the sirens call
when the sirens call
when the sirens call
