"Rapid Fire"

"Rapid Fire"


[Recorded with Ripper Owens]

Pounding the world
Like a battering ram
Forging the furnace
For the final grand slam

Chopping away at the source
Soon the course will be done

Leaving a trail of destruction
That's second to none

Hammering anvils
Screaming muscle and might
Shattering blows
Crashing row beating fright

Fast devastating and
Desolisating the curse
Blasting the cannons of
Truth through each man
Of this earth

Wielding the axe
Comes the one culmination
That's always seemed
Certain to bring down the curtain on greed

Sifting the good from the bad
It's the age for the rage of the
Dogs which must fall to the just
And be free

Now grate for the vandals
Who trampled and sampled
Till this place conditioned
Brought forth demolition to war

The slipping and sl iding
Corrosive subsiding
That withered and waned
Till the world seemed all drained
Fills the bay

Pounding the world
Like a battering ram
Forging the furnace
For the final grand slam

Chopping away at the source soon the course will be done
Leaving a trail of destruction
That's second to none
Second to none

"Raw Deal"

"Raw Deal"




[Tipton/Halford]

I made a spike about nine o'clock on a Saturday
All eyes hit me as I walked into the door
Then ??? and then the guys were fooling in the demin dudes
A couple cards played rough stuff, New York, fire island

I cased the joint, straining at the scenes

I moseyed up to the counter and the tender came a-grinnin'
I snapped the smile off his face and scowled "Give me a bourbon"
The mirror on the wall was collecting and reflecting
All the heavy bodies ducking, stealing eager for some action
The scene screwed me up, I saw some contact
Then the big boys, saw me and knew that

I'd had too much, floating around
Statues alive, seconds are hours

Sacks like a hurricane, wrapped in and shattered
I was barely holding on to this flying body symphony
I guess I dream in pictures, not colors
The true free expression I demand is human rights - right

I gave my life, I am immortal

I'm going, no loss
I'm going, no loss
I'm going, no loss
I'm going, no loss

Nightmare, just a bunch of goddamn, rotten, steaming, raw
Deal

"Reckless"

"Reckless"


[Tipton/Halford/Downing]

No one can stop me know
I'm like a human dynamo
Live wired and chargin' out with power
This time I won't hold back
I'm rarin' to get up and go
Fuelled up and growin' by the hour

Look out
I'm blastin' through the lines
Alive and kickin'
Watch out
I'm young and lethal
I'm goin' from here until eternity

I'm feelin' reckless
Way outa hand, a real survivor
Reckless
Comin' at gale force ten

Around me I feel the shock waves,
Building for the energy
A force field no one can break through
Solid as rock no wonder
I am indestructible
First placed in everything I do

Look out
I'm blastin' through the lines
Alive and kickin'
Watch out
I'm young and lethal
I'm goin' from here until eternity

I'm feelin' reckless
Way outa hand, a real survivor
Reckless
Comin' at gale force ten

Radioactive
I'm shootin' through the atmosphere
Takin' off
I'm headin' like a rocket through the stratosphere.

Look out
I'm blastin' through the lines
Alive and kickin'
Watch out
I'm young and lethal
I'm goin' from here until eternity

I'm feelin' reckless
Way outa hand, a real survivor
Reckless
Comin' at gale force ten
I'm feelin' reckless
Way outa hand, a real survivor
Reckless
Comin' at gale force
Comin' at gale force ten
I'm feelin' reckless
Way outa hand, a real survivor
Reckless
Comin' at gale force
Comin' at gale force ten

"Red, White And Blue"

"Red, White And Blue"



When I'm far away
And I can't get through
Wherever I roam
Keeps bringing me back to you

Holding on to hope
There's no need to fear
Wherever I roam
This piece of home
Keeps telling you that I'm near

So lift up your heart
Cause the brave will always come through
While we're apart
We will raise the red, white and blue

When I stand alone
Without you by my side
I think of all
That you stand for
It fills me up with pride

Reaching out to you
Across mountains, sea and sky
I think of all
That you stand for
And hope will never die

Now I'm coming home again
I'm coming home to you
And as I roam
This piece of home
Has brought me back to you

"Redeemer Of Souls"

"Redeemer Of Souls"




Time to settle the score
He's loaded to feel their remorse
Steadfast strong that's for sure
The deal of his life takes its course
No giving in
They don't understand
They get to give up and to meet his demands

Count down coming your way
He's the last to obey
Watch him seizing the day
Redeemer - redeemer of souls

There's no holding him back
The ransom announces his deeds
He's not cutting you slack
Just taking what ever he needs
Diamonds for eyes
As he begins
On that two wheeler from hell on the wind

Now he's setting the tune
They know the stare down is soon
Vengeance comes at high noon
Redeemer of souls
On the skyline
The stranger draws near
Feel the heat and he's shaking with fear

Countdown coming your way
He's the last to obey
Watch him seizing the day
Redeemer of souls

"Revelations"

"Revelations"



I see all things
From my mind's innocence
When they call me
I hear their prophecy

You say I must
Face my own deliverance
Did you choose me
Have I lost sanity

These eyes can see right through me
I feel your soul inside
What have you waiting for me
I'll do what you decide

And now this possession
Becomes my obsession
Adrift in illusion
I'm sent into confusion

Such torment and sadness
That overwhelms like madness
So fearful and intense
It burns inside

I'll spread the word
Around the world
My name will last
Eternally

I have the power
I have the choice
They'll hear my voice
For centuries

Pandora's Box is opened
Too late no turning round
A paradox has woken
I serve with honor bound

I take this possession
And make it my obsession
Alive in illusion
To make sense from confusion

Come torment come sadness
Give me the joy of madness
This fear and this intent
Runs deep inside

This deepest possession
For my life
I want this obsession
In my life
I claim this possession
Take my life

"Revolution"

"Revolution"



If you think it's over
Better think again
There'll be no compromise
Turning up the power
Feel adrenaline
Move into overdrive

Here comes the revolution
Time for retribution

If you think I'd back down
Or accept defeat
Brace for the aftershock
Driven to the limit
Take it to the streets
Give it everything you've got

Here comes the revolution
Time for retribution

Time to come together
Revolution
Living on forever
Revolution
Get ready for the evolution

Here comes the revolution
Time for retribution

"Riding On The Wind"

"Riding On The Wind"



Shooting for the stars
Cruise the speed of light.
Glowin' god of Mars
Body burning bright.

Well I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind
Yes I'm ridin', ridin' on the wind.

Tearing up through life
Million miles an hour
Blinding all in sight
Surging rush of power.
Thunderbolt from hell
Shattering aloud.
Screamin' demons yell
Bursting through the clouds.

"Rock Forever"

"Rock Forever"


[Tipton/Downing/Halford]

When the day is over,
I like to ease my mind
By jucin' up my system,
With the beat of a heavy kind
I smack a bottle open,
I crank the hi-fi high
I'm in-a seventh heaven
Ooh I can touch the sky

I'm in love, so in love
And I can't stop talking 'bout my rock forever

It starts to move into me,
Just how I can't explain,
It's like a brilliant sunshine,
After standing in the pouring rain
My skin begins to tingle,
Ooh right on down my back.
It's really got me fevered,
Pounding my senses flat.

I'm in love, so in love
And I can't stop talking 'bout my rock forever

Rock - rock - rock forever (I love it)
Rock - rock - rock forever (my fever)
Rock - rock - rock forever (always gonna) Rock - rock - rock forever
I can't stop talkin' about...rock...
Now get it right, boys...

[GUITAR SOLO (both)]

So when you get those blue days,
Here's just what to do
Switch into this lifeline
And the feelin' rushin' through
Before you know it, blue days
Are now left behind
By juicin' up your system
With this beat of a heavy kind

I'm in love, so in love
And I can't stop talking 'bout my rock forever Rock forever
I'm gonna rock forever.
