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 smoulder 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, Cauterising 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 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 Racing past 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 Stand by for Exciter Stand by for Exciter Stand by for Exciter |

1 I move as fast as I can I like to get around I'm crazy like a madman My feet don't touch the ground 2 I move amongst the night life And they just step aside 'Caus when they see me coming They know I'm running wild Said you're a little nothing But butlers we have all I take on all comers They back up or they fall They raise their hands to stuff me I laugh and I defy 'Caus what's the point in living Unless you're living wild GUITAR SOLO (Glenn) No chains can hold me down Always break away There's no use to sell me Tell me what to do or say I taste the life that pleases me I raise the style for all the world to see I never stumble no more Never stop for breath I looked back but I walked home And I just step aside 2 REPEAT I'm running wild I'm running wild Get them away, I'm running wild I'm running wild You'd be living wild Wild... |

You're in for surprise
You're in for a shock In London town streets When there's darkness and fog When you least expect me And you turn your back I'll attack I smile when I'm sneaking Through shadows by the wall I laugh when I'm creeping But you won't hear me at all All hear my warning Never turn your back On the ripper You'll soon shake with fear Never knowing if I'm near I'm sly and I'm shameless Nocturnal and nameless Except for "The Ripper" Or if you like "Jack The Knife" Any back alley street Is where we'll probably meet Underneath a gas lamp Where the air's cold and damp I'm a nasty surprise I'm a devil in disguise I'm a footstep at night I'm a scream of the fright All hear my warning Never turn your back On the ripper...the ripper....the ripper |

Now when the day goes to sleep
and the full moon looks And the night is so black that the darkness cooks And you come creeping around, making me do things I don't want to do Can't believe that she needs my love so bad Come sneaking around, trying to drive me mad Busting in all my dreams, making me see things I don't want to see 'Cause you're the Green Manalishi with the two-pronged crown All night dragging us up, or you're bringing us down Just taking my love, and slip away Leaving me here, trying to keep from following you |

I'll be damned, here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual It's just that the moon is full And you decided to call And here I sit, hand on the telephone Hearing the voice I'd known A couple of light years ago Heading straight for a fall Well we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Yes we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Now I see you standing all around with snow in your hair Now we're looking out the window of a crummy hotel over Washington Square Our breath comes in white clouds, mingles and hangs in the air Speaking strictly for me, we both could've died then and there Now you're telling me, your not nostalgic Damn give me another word for it You were so good with words And at keeping things vague Cause I need some of that vaugeness now It's all come back too clearly, Yes I love you dearley And if you're offering me diamonds and rust, I've already paid Well we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Yes we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Diamonds, Diamonds and rust Diamonds, Diamonds and rust Diamonds, Diamonds and rust Diamonds, Diamonds and rust |

Whiskey woman don't you know that you are drivin' me insane
The liquor you give stems your will to live and gets right to my brain Don't you know you're driving me insane You're tryin' to find your way through life You're tryin' to get some new direction Another woman got her man She won't find no new connection Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through Takes another look around, you're not goin' anywhere You've realized you're gettin' old and no one seems to care You're tryin' to find your way again You're tryin' to find some new... Another woman's got her man But she won't find a new... Takes another drink or two, things look better when she's through You 'bin foolin' with some hot guy I want to know why is it why Get up get out you know you really blew it I've had enough, I've had enough, good God pluck me |

Mercenary batalions
Are poised to strike us down Terminations conquest Upon us now full grown Save me, my heart's open wide Help me, no question of pride Save me, my people have died Total genocide Devastation hungers She waits to leap to earth Imminent liquidation Before the grand rebirth Save me, my heart's open wide Help me, no question of pride Save me, my people have died Total genocide Sin after sin I have endured Yet the wounds I bear are the wounds of love Frantic mindless zombies Grab at fleeting time Lost in cold perplexion Waiting for the sign Generations tremble Clinging face to face Helpless situation To end the perfect race Flashing senseless sabers Cut us to the ground Eager for the life blood Of all who can be found Save me, my heart's open wide Help me, no question of pride Save me, my people have died Total genocide Slice to the left, slice to the right None to retaliate, none will fight Chopping at the hearts, snuffing out the lives This race departs, no one will survive Heads to the feet, feet to the air Souls in the soil, heavy in despair End of all ends, body into dust To greet death friends, extinction is a must |

Behold -- 'tis I, the commander Whose grip controls you all! Resist me not, surrender! I'll no compassion call. Tyrant -- Capture of humanity Tyrant -- Conqueror of all Tyrant -- Hideous destructor Tyrant -- Every man shall fall Your very lives are held within my fingers I snap them, and you cower down in fear You spineless things who belly down to slither To the end of the world you follow to be near. Tyrant -- Capture of humanity Tyrant -- Conqueror of all Tyrant -- Hideous destructor Tyrant -- Every man shall fall SOLO (KK) Mourn for us oppressed in fear. Chained and shackled, we are bound Freedom choked; in dread we live Since Tyrant was enthroned. I listen not to sympathy Whilst ruler of this land. Withdraw your feeble aches and moans, Or suffer smite from this my hand! Tyrant -- Capture of humanity Tyrant -- Conqueror of all Tyrant -- Hideous destructor Tyrant -- Every man shall fall SOLO (Glenn) Mourn for us oppressed in fear Chained and shackled we are bound Freedom choked in dread we live Since Tyrant was enthroned My legions faithful unto death I'll summon to my court And, as you perish, each of you Shall scream as you are sought! Tyrant -- Capture of humanity Tyrant -- Conqueror of all Tyrant -- Hideous destructor Tyrant -- Every man shall fall |
