Kill for gain or shoot to maim
But we don’t need a reason
The golden goose is on the loose
And never out of season
Blackened pride still burns inside
This shell of bloody treason
Here’s my gun for a barrel of fun
For the love of living death

The killer’s breed or the demon’s seed
The glamour, the fortune, the pain
Go to war again, blood is freedom’s stain
Don’t you pray for my soul anymore

2 minutes to midnight
The hands that threaten doom

2 minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb

The blind men shout, “Let the creatures out!
We’ll show the unbelievers”
Napalm screams of human flames
For a prime-time Belsen feast, yeah
As the reasons for the carnage cut
Their meat and lick the gravy
We oil the jaws of the war machine
And feed it with our babies

Holy Diver - Dio

Hmm hmm
Yeah, yeah

Holy diver
You’ve been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh what’s becomin’ of me
Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he’s clean
Oh don’t you see what I mean

Gotta get away, holy diver, yeah

Got shiny diamonds
Like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue
Something is coming for you, look out
Race for the morning
You can hide in the sun till you see the light
Oh we will pray it’s all right

Gotta get away, get away

Between the velvet lies
There’s a truth that’s hard as steel, yeah
The vision never dies
Life’s a never ending wheel

Say, holy diver
You’re the star of the masquerade
No need to look so afraid
Jump, jump, jump on the tiger
You can feel his heart but you know he’s mean
Some light can never be seen, yeah

Holy diver
You’ve been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh what’s becomin’ of me
No, no, ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he’s clean
Oh don’t you see what I mean

Gotta get away, get away
Gotta get away, get away, yeah

Holy diver
Soul survivor
You’re the one who’s clean
Holy diver
Holy diver
There a cat in the blue comin’ after you
Holy diver
Holy diver
Yeah, all right
Get away, get away, get away
Holy diver

Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering will mother earth survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her
Sometime

After all, there’s only just the two of us
And here we are, still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself
Time after time

I’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away
I’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days

I watch the sun go down like every one of us
I’m hoping that the dawn will bring a sign
A better place for those who will come after us
This time

I’m just a dreamer
I dream my life away
Oh, yeah
I’m just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days

Never Say Die - Black Sabbath

People going nowhere, taken for a ride
Looking for the answers that they know inside
Searching for a reason, looking for a rhyme
Snow white parasite, partners in crime

Don’t they ever have to worry?
Don’t you ever wonder why?
It’s a part of me that tells you
Oh, don’t you ever, don’t ever say die
Never, never, never say die again

Sunday satisfaction, madness on the rise
Truth is on the doorstep, welcoming the lies
All dressed up in sorrow, got no place to go
Hold tight, do it right, taking it slow

Don’t they ever have to worry?
Don’t you ever wonder why?
It’s a part of me that tells you
Oh, don’t you ever, don’t ever say die
Never, never, never say die again

Don’t you ever say die
Don’t you ever say die
Never say die

Fading silver lining, writing on the wall
Children get together, you can save us all
Future’s on the corner, showing us our time
Slow down, turn around, everything’s fine

There’s no need to have a reason
There’s no need to wonder why
It’s a part of me that tells you
Oh, don’t you ever, don’t ever say die
Never, never, never say die again

Never say die

[Stacy2]

Why try? I know why
This feeling inside me says it’s time I was gone
Clear head, new life ahead
It’s time I was king now, not just one more pawn

Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye, my dear
My ship isn’t coming and I just can’t pretend

Moon rise, thoughtful eyes
Staring back at me from the window beside
No fright or hindsight
Leaving behind that empty feeling inside

Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye, my dear
My ship isn’t coming and I just can’t pretend, whoa

Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye, my dear
My ship isn’t coming and I just can’t pretend

Start a new chapter, I find what I’m after
It’s changing every day
The change of a season’s enough of a reason
To want to get away
Quiet and pensive, my thoughts apprehensive
The hours drift away
Leaving my homeland, playing a lone hand
My life begins today

Bad Rain - Slash featuring Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators

Bloodlust tonight
Bite my tongue and hold it in
From deep inside she aches for every part of him
In the rapture of the midnight sun
She is longing for immortal love
New moon hangs high
Tell me will it ever end?
Oh, oh, whoa, oho

Here comes the bad rain
Falling from an aching heart
Here comes the bad rain
Don’t know when it’s gonna stop

She’s somewhere else, should be lying next to me
Under the spell, tangled in her ecstasy
From her veins she gave a streaming life
Let him pray on her like a sacrifice
Still she denies everything so brazenly
Oh, oh, whoa, oho

Here comes the bad rain
Falling from an aching heart
Here comes the bad rain
Don’t know when it’s gonna stop

And in the madness of this love
She won’t surrender 'till it’s done
And so I’m lost to wait
God, this night could last forever

And so it ends
Kisses me and kills the lights
The living dead always leave her satisfied

Here comes the bad rain
Falling from an aching heart
Here comes the bad rain
Don’t know when it’s gonna stop

Here comes the bad rain
Falling from an aching heart
Here comes the bad rain
Don’t know when it’s gonna stop

She was a fast machine, she kept her motor clean
She was the best damn woman that I ever seen
She had the sightless eyes, telling me no lies
Knocking me out with those American thighs

Taking more than her share,
had me fighting for air
She told me to come,
but I was already there
'Cause the walls start shaking,
the Earth was quaking
My mind was aching and we were making it

And you shook me all night long
Yeah, you shook me all night long

Working double time on the seduction line
She’s one of a kind, she’s just mine, all mine
Wanted no applause, it’s just another course
Made a meal outta me, and come back for more

Had to cool me down to take another round
Now I’m back in the ring to take another swing
That the walls were shaking,
the Earth was quaking
My mind was aching and we were making it

And you shook me all night long
Yeah, you shook me all night long
And knocked me out,
I said you shook me all night long
You had me shaking and you
shook me all night long
Yeah, you shook me
Well, you took me

Follow the Moskwa
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change

The world is closing in
Did you ever think
That we could be so close, like brothers
The future’s in the air
Can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

Walking down the street
Distant memories
Are buried in the past, forever
I follow the Moskwa
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

The wind of change
Blows straight into the face of time
Like a storm wind that will ring the freedom bell
For peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

The Crystal Ship - The Doors

Before you slip into unconsciousness
I’d like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss
Another kiss, another kiss

The days are bright and filled with pain
Enclose me in your gentle rain
The time you ran was too insane
We’ll meet again, we’ll meet again

Oh tell me where your freedom lies
The streets are fields that never die
Deliver me from reasons why
You’d rather cry, I’d rather fly

The crystal ship is being filled
A thousand girls, a thousand thrills
A million ways to spend your time
When we get back, I’ll drop a line

[Stacy2]

In the still of the night I hear the wolf howl,
honey
Sniffing around your door
In the still of the night I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more

In the shadow of night I see the full moon rise
Telling me what’s in store
My heart start aching, my body starts a shaking
And I can’t take no more

No-no, no

I just wanna get close to you
And taste your love so sweet
And I just wanna make love to you
Feel your body heat

In the still of the night
In the still of the night
Over here, baby

In the heat of the day, I hang my head down low
And hide my face from the sun
Through the light of the day until the evening time
I’m waiting for the night to c-c-c-come

• Still of the Night (Whitesnake)

[Stacy2]

Out on the streets, I’m stalking the night
I can hear my heavy breathing
Paid for the kill, but it doesn’t seem right
Something there I can believe in

Voices are calling from inside my head
I can hear them, I can hear them
Vanishing memories of things that were said
They can’t try to hurt me now

But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
Just a shot in the dark
Always creeping up on you, all right

Taught by the powers that preach over me
I can hear their empty reason
I wouldn’t listen, I learnt how to fight
I opened up my mind to treason

But just like the wounded and when it’s too late
They’ll remember, they’ll surrender
Never a care for the people who hate
Underestimate me now

But a shot in the dark
One step away from you
Just a shot in the dark
Nothing that you can do
Just a shot in the dark
Always creeping up on you, all right

Flight Of Icarus - Iron Maiden

As the sun breaks, above the ground
An old man stands on the hill
As the ground warms, to the first rays of light
A birdsong shatters the still

His eyes are ablaze
See the madman in his gaze

Fly on your way, like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly and touch the sun (yeah)

Now the crowd breaks and a young boy appears
Looks the old man in the eye
As he spreads his wings and shouts at the crowd
In the name of God, my father I’ll fly

His eyes seem so glazed
As he flies on the wings of a dream
Now he knows his father betrayed
Now his wings turn to ashes to ashes his grave

Fly on your way, like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly, touch the sun

Yeah

Fly, on your way, like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly as high as the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly, touch the sun
On your way, like an eagle
Fly

Fly as high as the sun

It was starting to rain
On the night that they first decided
It was blinding with snow
On the night that they ran away
They were found in the dark
But they never returned
Just like somebody slammed the door

She was meant to be wild
He was nearly a child
But they only could feel each other
They were paper and fire
Angel and liar
The devil of one another

Then they were thrown to the ground
With a terrible sound
Just like somebody broke a heart

Rock N Roll Children
Alone again
Rock N Roll Children
Without a friend
But they got Rock ‘N’ Roll

It was starting to rain
On the night that they cried forever
it was blinding with snow
On the night that they screamed goodbye

They were lost in the dark
And they never returned
Just like somebody slammed the door

Do ya wanna get rocked?
Let’s get, let’s get, let’s get, let’s get rocked

I’m your average, ordinary, everyday kid
Happy to do nothin’, in fact that’s what I did
I got a million ways to make my day,
but daddy don’t agree
'Cause when I try to get away, he says,
he got plans for me

Stop buggin’ me
(Get up and move your sleepy head)
Don’t shake my tree
He said, (“Mow the lawn”) Who me?
(Walk the dog) Not my style, man!
(Take out the trash) No way!
(Tidy your room) Come on, get real!
Sorry dad, gotta disappear
Let’s get the rock outta here

Seven-day weekend, up all night
In at the deep end, hang on tight
It won’t take a minute, it won’t take long
So get on in it, come on, come on, come on

Let’s get, let’s get, let’s get, let’s get rocked
Let’s get, let’s get, let’s get, let’s get rocked
Let’s go all the way, get it night’n’day
Come on let’s get, let’s get, let’s get, let’s get rocked

I’m your average, ordinary everyday dude
Drivin’ with my baby, to get her in the mood
She’s dialin’ through my radio,
and I’m a-ready to make my move
What she got ain’t rock’n’roll,
and it really blew my groove

Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd

… So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from hell?
Blue skies from pain?
And can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?

… Did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
Did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

… How I wish, how I wish you were here
We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found? The same old fears
Wish you were here

Keep pushing for the fortune and fame
You know it’s, it’s all a gamble when it’s just a game
You treat it like a capital crime

Oh, won’t you please take me home? Yeah-yeah

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Strapped in the chair of the city’s gas chamber
Why I’m here, I can’t quite remember

I’d have another cigarette, but I can’t see
Tell me, who you’re gonna believe?

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah-yeah

Sailing Ships - Whitesnake

Do you remember standing on the shore
Your head in the clouds, your pockets filled with dreams?
Bound for glory on the seven seas of life
But the ocean is deeper than it seems

The wind was with you when you left on the morning tide
You set your sail for an island in the sun
On the horizon, dark clouds up ahead
For the storm has just begun

Take me with you, take me far away
And lead me to the distant shore

Sail your ship across the water
Spread your wings across the sky
Take the time to see, you’re the one who holds the key
The sailing ships will pass you by

You cry for mercy when you think you’ve lost your way
You drift alone if all your hope is gone
But find the strength and you will see that you control your destiny
After all is said and done

So take me with you, take me far away
And lead me to the distant shore

Sail your ship across the water
Spread your wings across the sky
Take the time to see, you’re the one who holds the key
The sailing ships will pass
Sailing ships will pass you
Sailing ships will pass you by

Take me with you, take me far away
We’ll ride the wind across the sky
Spread your wings and you will see
You control your destiny
So sailing ships don’t pass you by

So take me with you, take me far away
We’ll ride the wind across the sky
Spread your wings and you will see
You control your destiny
So sailing ships don’t pass
Sailing ships don’t pass you
Sailing ships don’t pass you by

Baby, baby, baby, baby
You’ll find that you’re the only one
Can sail your ship across the

While My Guitar Gently Weeps - The Beatles

I look at you all, see the love there that’s sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still, my guitar gently weeps

I don’t know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love
I don’t know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you

I look at the world and I notice it’s turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake, we must surely be learning
Still, my guitar gently weeps, yeah

I don’t know how you were diverted
You were perverted, too
I don’t know how you were inverted
No one alerted you

I look at you all, see the love there that’s sleeping
Why my guitar gently weeps
(I look) look at you all
Still, my guitar gently weeps

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
