1. ANIMAL HOUSE

Morning is breaking with death on the street
Driving downtown in a red corvette
The demons and satans are creeping around
L.A. nights are madhouse nights
The murderers - are heroes
They're speeding all over the town
And justice is drunken
I'm tumbling upside down
I'm a madman
Living in an animal house
I'm a madman
Living in an animal house
Living in an animal house
Rockers in concert are serving the bible
Praying in public is getting a habit
For selling out everything seems to be right, oh yeah
The sunset is crowded with tramps passing out
They're sleeping - in trashcans
There's witchcraft in everyone's eyes
Satans and demons
All dressed up in suits and ties
I'm a madman
Living in an animal house
I'm a madman
Living in an animal house
Madman - going crazy - living in an animal house
Yeah
I'm a madman
Living in an animal house
I'm a madman
Living in an animal house
I'm a madman
Living in an animal house
I'm a madman
Madman - hahaha - living in an animal house


2. GO BACK TO HELL

Mystic rainbows - in the night
Flashing colours - shining bright
Can't you see me - in the dark
Feel a heatwave - of a spark
If you're fighting the world just beware of the knives in your back
When you need to defend then you know that it's best to attack
See the light - feel the pain - and you're going insane
Go back to hell - go back to hell
To the sight of mystic light you've seen before
Go back to hell - go back to hell
Where the dead are always knocking at your door
Feel so lonely - far away
Eat your heart out - time to pray
Moving faster - to the flames
And I'm playing - all the games
If you're fighting the world just beware of the knives in your back
When you need to defend then you know that it's best to attack
See the light - feel the pain - and you're going insane
Go back to hell - go back to hell
To the sight of mystic light you've seen before
Go back to hell - go back to hell
Where the dead are always knocking at your door
At your door, yeah
See the light - feel the pain - and you're going insane
Go back to hell - go back to hell
To the sight of mystic light you've seen before
Go back to hell - go back to hell
Where the dead are always knocking at your door
Go back to hell - go back to hell
To the sight of mystic light you've seen before
Go back to hell - go back to hell
Where the dead are always knocking at your door
Go back to hell


3. THEY WANT WAR

They are young and they're kids
And believe what they see
That to do what they've been told
And so they walk away with open eyes
Some are eight or nine or ten
And they die like a fly
And no one knows
Who they are, they're smaller than the gun they load
See their eyes open wide
They died before they ever cried
They die in the streets and they die in the fields
When they do what they've been told
But now they're lying dead
Their eyes are closed
Some are eight or nine or ten
And they die like a fly
And no one knows
Who they are, they're smaller than the gun they load
See their eyes open wide
They died before they ever cried
Who taught them how - how to pray
Who told them they're in paradise when they're gonna die
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war
They are blind and they can't fight
They want war, ...
You're gonna pay the price
You little devil in disguise
For taking life with no regard
You'll go to hell and there you'll burn
Children in the battlefield
Please don't go
Little birds with fluttering hearts
Please don't go
They are blind, ...


4. BLACK WIDOW

I just love my nightmares
I can't wait to sleep
Enjoying all my dreams
Got no regrets
I can be a flash of lightning
Striking down on rocks
Burning down the law
Getting things I never got
Turning the world
Nothing unheard
One night can be more than a day
Just like a black widow
Like a black widow
I can't stand the dreamers
Scared of things that fly
They just have sweet fantasies
And fade and die
Nightmares - are so good, so good
And they always end when they should
Nightmares are cool, nightmares are cruel
I love the fun and the thrill
Just like a black widow
Just like a black widow
Black widow
Just like a black widow
Here comes the morning
And who can deny
Leaving a dream is so hard
I love my nightmares
I await their return
And this time, I'm dressed to kill, dressed to kill
Just like a black widow
Just like a black widow
Just like a black widow
Just like a black widow, ...


5. IN THE DARKNESS

Why am I here now
What have I done
Running on empty
I got nowhere to run
Can't get an answer
Can't get it right
Just try to make it
Till the end of the night
Is there a way to avoid doing wrong
Lead me away from the darkness
Light up my day show me where I belong
Please don't leave me all alone in the darkness
Far in the distance
There is night, there is day
Sounds are waving
Nets of dismay
Sometimes I'm stuck in a shocking delay
Like in a slow motion movie
I'm reaching out for something to hold
Life slips away in the cold - in the cold
My heart is so cold - my heart is so cold
Why was I turned down
What's going on
I wish there was something
That could have been done
How can I get there
Where is the light
How can I make it
Till the end of the night
How can I turn darkness to light
Leaving my fear in the darkness
Is there a way how can I overcome
My restless nights and my fear - and my fear
In the darkness - in the darkness - in the darkness - in the darkness
In the darkness - in the darkness - in the darkness


6. LAY DOWN THE LAW

You turn my head
You turn my life, am I up or down
Why don't you see you're bugging me
I have already lost my way
Do I have to pay for everybody's shit
Is it the past or the start
Why can't you make it easy
Why don't you leave me alone
Keep me alive - keep me alive
Why don't ya keep me alive, me alive
Lay down the law - fight for more
Lay down the law - double the trouble and kick some ass
Lay down the law - lay it down
Lay down the law - lay it down, haha
I'm giving up, waiting for more
I need to know what to do
And you can see, see it's me
The one who's breaking down
How many fights, how many lives
How many lives do I have to live
It's not alright, I'm fucking tired
To pay those rotten dues
Keep me alive - keep me alive
Why don't ya keep me alive, me alive
Lay down the law - fight for more, yeah
Lay down the law - oh, double the trouble and kick some ass
Lay down the law - lay it down, yeah
Lay down the law - ooh yeah, yeah, yeah
How many fights
How many lives, do I have to live
It's not alright, I'm fucking tired
To pay those rotten dues
Lay down the law - fight for more
Lay down the law - double the trouble and kick some ass
Lay down the law - lay it, lay it, lay it down
Lay down the law - oh, oh, yeah, yeah
Lay down the law - fight for more, fight for more
Lay down the Law


7. WE WANT IT LOUD

Loud!
Tonight - is a show
And I gotta be there
Banging my head to a metal attack
We got nothing to fear
Dancing and screaming - begging my heroes for more
Burning the streets ‘cause we gotta be first through the door
We want it loud
There's no other reason we came for
We want it loud
The louder the better we need more
They keep us locked, locked in
For hours and hours we wait in line
You get pushed to the limit
We can't even breath no more
Like a volcano we're boiling and ready to blow
Fight all the way - got to see this damn rock and roll show
We want it loud
There's no other reason we came for
We want it loud
The louder the better we need more
We want it loud - we want it loud - we want it loud
Yeah, it's gotta be loud
We want it loud
There's no other reason we came for
We want it loud
The louder the better we need more
We want it loud
There's no other reason we came for
We want it loud
The louder the better we need more
We want it loud - we want it loud - we want it loud
We want it loud - we need it loud - we get it loud
It's gotta be loud


8. HOT TONIGHT

We don''t give a damn what they do for a living
Everywhere we go we party just the same
Getting all my fun
With crazy little girls like you
Playing all your games acting like a fool
Screaming- feel the fire
Screaming- feel the fire- feel it now now now
'Cause we are hot tonight- hot tonight
'Cause we are hot tonight- hot tonight
Must be time to go I''m feeling hot and sweaty
Find a place to go to make it hard''n''heavy
Wasting all this time
Would be a silly thing to do
Please don''t be a tease now it''s time me and you
Screaming- feel the fire
Screaming- feel the fire- feel it now now now
'Cause we are hot tonight- hot tonight
'Cause we are hot tonight- hot tonight
Screaming- feel the fire
Screaming- feel the fire- feel it now now now
'Cause we are hot tonight- hot tonight.......


9. WARRIOR

Wasn't there a time
When no one lived in pain
Zero down to zero
But a warrior
The innocence of birth
The power of the earth
Out of all that's good
Comes a warrior
Time - is it you who changes minds
Sueing us - for something we've not done
Stealing the heroes - all the guiding lights, to find the way
Justice has been gone
To pieces for so long
Some killers call themselves
A warrior
Warriors with no pride
Committing suicide
The picture of a man
That's your warrior
'Cause he's a warrior
Yes, he's a warrior
He fights for peace and freedom
'Cause he's a warrior
Yes, he's a warrior
He fights for peace and freedom
Think about the time
Where manhood promised pride
And history was made
Just by warriors
We have to face the world
And hope that someone's heard
Who could replace a man
Like the warrior
'Cause he's a warrior
Yes, he's a warrior
He fights for peace and freedom
'Cause he's a warrior
Yes, he's a warrior
He fights for peace and freedom
Time - is it you who changes minds
Sueing us - for something we've not done
Stealing the heroes - all the guiding lights, to find the way
'Cause he's a warrior
Yes, he's a warrior
He fights for peace and freedom
'Cause he's a warrior
Yes, he's a warrior
He fights for peace and freedom
Cause he's a warrior, ...


10. COMING HOME

I've not been home
For so many years
And I did not regret being gone
Please tell me when did we talk
And when did we show
That we do care for something called love
Oh no, don't you despair now
I'm as grown up as can be
Can't you forget everything
And this time listen to me
I'm coming home - home
I'm coming home - why don't you help me
I'm coming home - home
I'm coming home - why don't you love me
It's time to remember
What we've got together
I guess it is more than we know
And we should be open
And turn back the wheels
As far as we can go
I know I am your son
And everything else don't seem real
I want you back like never before
I can't take another goodbye
I'm coming home - home
I'm coming home - please, can't you be there
I'm coming home - home
I'm coming home - please, don't you leave me
What's done's done - I'm your son
I've been hurt by your lies
I want peace after all
That's why I want you to let me come home
I'm coming home - home
I'm coming home - let's fight together
Home - home
I'm coming home - I've so much to tell you
Home - I'm coming home
I'm coming home - time heals the scars of the past
I'm coming home
I'm coming home - to be by your side
I'm coming home - I'm coming home
I'm coming home - I've so much to tell you
I'm coming home - I'm coming home, ...


11. RUN FOR COVER

See the man in white
He's old he wouldn't dare to fight, to fight another
Rockin' like a beast upon a never ending dream
We love each other
Asking for a sign - the action's coming from behind
Let's run for cover
Feel the music's beat, we fight for rock
And in the heat we stand together
We're holding back for you when you fight
And we stand one for another
We're holding back for you, when you run for cover
We're holding back for you when you fight
And we stand one for another
We're holding back for you, when you run for cover
And see those open eyes when you are standing here tonight
That's why - we're holding back for you, when you run for cover
Restless in the night, we all stand up for this delight
We fight together - together
We're holding back for you when you fight
And we stand one for another
We're holding back for you, when you run for cover
We're holding back for you when you fight
And we stand one for another
We're holding back for you, when you run for cover
We're holding back for you, ...
