Reptile Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Coming from the sewerage, creepin' through the pipes
Born from modern chemistry, a thing that is alive
Growing in this rotten crap at places no one wipes
Eating rats and stinking shit and all it needs to thrive
[Pre-Chorus]
The scientists got no way to fight
For they can't find any weak point to get rid of it right
You live your life and you don't know what's goin' on
You just can't stop a-thinking that the officials do you wrong
[Verse 2]
You're sometimes wondering what the hell bit your baby's arm
And the nuns at the holy mission can't keep the tramps from harm
Even thieves around dark corners too scared to leave the door
Frustrated businessmen needing a wank can't find themselves a whore
[Pre-Chorus]
You won't believe till you know that it's real
From the pain in your stomach and the horror that you feel
You need a shit, so you head off for the loo
You're coming to the bog, now what you're gonna do!
[Chorus]
There's the reptile (reptile)
Just see his eyes
Reptile (reptile)
Can you see the beast arise?
Reptile (reptile)
Creeping up on you
Reptile (reptile)
There's nothing left that you can do
[Solo: Kai / Michael]
[Chorus]
And there's the reptile (reptile)
Hidden till now
Reptile (reptile)
But now it's there; you don't know how
Reptile (reptile)
Just watch it grow
Reptile (reptile)
And there's no more human being left but you
[Outro]
You
You
Oh, yeah!
Metal Invaders Lyrics
[Chorus]
Full moon, standing in the streets
I know the time is near
Incarnate power roaring from the sky
Unrelenting forces blasting through the air
Roaring thunder, lift your hands and pray
[Pre-Chorus]
Running through the empty streets
They're looking for the fight
Swords gleam in the light of moon
The gods prepare to strike
[Chorus]
Metal invaders, ready to strike
A warning from hell, be careful tonight
All right!
[Verse 2]
Dark night overwhelming bright light
See the demons fly
Can't trust your senses; fear you'll have to die
Super mighty shadows casting amplitudes to ears
Sounds you've never heard that take you high
[Pre-Chorus]
Time has come for them to rise
Invasion is their doom
Riding high on iron horses
In the light of moon
[Chorus]
Metal invaders, the gods on their ride
Sworn to bring metal, mayhem tonight
Tonight!
[Solo: Both Kai and Michael]
[Chorus]
Full moon, standing in the streets
I know the time is near
Incarnate power roaring from the sky
Unrelenting forces blasting through the air
Roaring thunder, lift your hands and pray
[Pre-Chorus]
Running through the empty streets
They're looking for the fight
Swords gleam in the light of moon
The gods prepare to strike
[Chorus]
Metal invaders, ready to strike
A warning from hell, be careful tonight
Metal invaders, the gods on their ride
Sworn to bring metal, mayhem tonight
[Outro]
Tonight...
Tonight...
Tonight!
How Many Tears Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A lot of things occur each day
We've got to live with on our way
There's so much misery on the screen
With commercials in between
And the Russians won't be so late
Uncle Sam don't wanna wait
No matter if you're black or white
You never ever had a right
[Bridge]
And look up to the eternal skies
See warfare even there
What once has been a paradise
Now destruction and despair
[Verse 2]
In other worlds, the children die
Lacking food, ill from a fly
Oppressed by troops to tame their land
It's all the same again
If any man is free on earth
Then tormentors steal his birth
They slam gun butts in his face
And leave his woman choked in mace
[Pre-Chorus]
So, stand up for our human rights
Push back this pest of hate
Raise your voice, pass on the light
Unite! It's not too late
[Chorus]
How many tears flow away
To become a sea of fears?
How many hearts are torn apart
Till another torment starts?
[Post-Chorus]
But before the world
Turns into a sun
All cruelty and violence
On earth will be dead and gone
But before the world
Turns into a sun
All cruelty and violence
On earth will be dead and gone
[Solo: Both / Both / Michael / Both]
[Pre-Chorus]
So, stand up for our human rights
Push back this pest of hate
Raise your voice, pass on the light
Unite! It's not too late
[Chorus]
How many tears flow away
To become a sea of fears?
How many hearts are torn apart
Till another torment starts?
[Post-Chorus]
But before the world
Turns into a sun
All cruelty and violence
On earth will be dead and gone
But before the world
Turns into a sun
All cruelty and violence
On earth will be dead and gone
Ride the Sky (live) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Much too long, I've been a prisoner here
The hour has come to break out
Shackled and chained, almost goin' insane
It's better to live on the run
Set me free, set me free
[Pre-Chorus]
Send me a sign, wanna leave it all behind
I'll be leaving the hands of doom
Rearrange the master plan, take the future in my hands
To be free and not trapped anymore
[Chorus]
Ride the sky, ride the sky
Give me wings to fly, ride the sky
Ride the sky, ride the sky
Give me wings to fly, ride the sky
[Verse 2]
I have to think for myself and then act
In conformity of my own thoughts
No one should tell what's wrong and what's right
Why don't you leave me alone?
Set me free
Set me free
[Pre-Chorus]
Send me a sign, wanna leave it all behind
I'll be leaving the hands of doom
Rearrange the master plan, take the future in my hands
To be free and not trapped anymore
[Chorus]
Ride the sky, ride the sky
Give me wings to fly, ride the sky
Ride the sky, ride the sky
Give me wings to fly, ride the sky
[Solo: Both / Kai / Both / Michael]
[Pre-Chorus]
Send me a sign, wanna leave it all behind
I'll be leaving the hands of doom
Rearrange the master plan, take the future in my hands
To be free and not trapped anymore
[Chorus]
Ride the sky, ride the sky
Give me wings to fly, ride the sky
Ride the sky, ride the sky
Give me wings to fly, ride the sky
[Outro]
Ride the sky, ride the sky
Ride the sky, ride the sky
Give me wings to fly
Ride on!
