		Manowar 
		-------
 
We met on English ground
In a backstage room
We heard the sound
And we all knew
What we had to do

We called the high command
Questedly to make a stand
And in the field we grew
And we all knew

Soon the time would come
For us to fight,
Destination
Now in sight

Aaah, Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more

Our fight will never end
So we called your party sense
To raise your hands
And take our stand

Look sharp
When duty calls
Where we march
Cities fall
And the strong survive
And take our side

Now the time has come
For us to fight
Target waiting
In our sight

Aaah, Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more

Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Manowar
Born to live forever more
Manowar
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Hold your ground and give no more
Born to live forever more
The right to conquer every shore
Manowar

 
		Metal Daze 
                ----------

I hear the sound
In a metal way
I feel the power
Rolling on the stage
'Cause only one thing
Really sets me free
Heavy metal
Loud as it can be

Baby I was born to play music
I am a man with a screaming guitar
There's a light in a middle of the stage
In a minute I'll be wearing it all
I don't know another way of living
Baby I don't really care
Give me a pair of chains, aim the whiplash at me
The girls I'd love to share

Heavy metal, metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze

Living like there's no tomorrow
Yeah, I could resist we're all on the edge
This is: Man you really graft it
This band: A social waste
Well, we all got arms made of metal
And our glories are no deblock
And if I don't hear the sound of metal
I go into shock!

Heavy metal, metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal

So mister D. J.
Play just one for me
You know the one
With the crushin' and the screams
'Cause only one thing
Really sets me free
Heavy metal
Loud as it can be

Heavy metal, metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal, heavy metal daze
heavy metal, heavy metal daze
Heavy metal
Loud as it can be

 
		Secret Of Steel 
                ---------------

Atop the mountain, where the river of steel flows
Black is the forest, white was the snow.
There as children, how could children know?
One without name or number soon would show.

There stood he, on his chariot made of gold
He did reveal the trinity of secrets old.

A sceptre of iron could mercy bring.
A shield of gold, the Creator and King,
and the great sword of steel.

Sons of destiny shall wield.
Hear Wisdom's voice.
Rise, know the strength that you feel.
Hold in your heart, but never reveal
You were called by the Gods, their powers to wield.
Guard well the secret of steel.

A sceptre of iron could mercy bring.
A shield of gold, the Creator and King,
and the great sword of steel.

Sons of destiny shall wield.
Hear Wisdom's voice.
Rise, know the strength that you feel.
Hold in your heart, but never reveal
You were called by the Gods, their powers to wield.
Guard well the secret of steel.

		Sign Of The Hammer 
                ------------------

The spell has been broken,
the curse has been lifted
Black is the wind on the heels
Of the Gifted
Four sworn to vengeance,
See the hate in our eyes
Called by the Gods, and given a sign

Onward pounding Into Glory Ride
Sign of the Hammer be my guide
Final warning all stand aside
Sign of the Hammer it's my time

Pounding, pounding, we are back from the dead
those who denied us are delivered instead
Into the hands of Four sworn to ride
Now the people will triumph and live by the sign

Onward pounding Into Glory Ride
Sign of the Hammer be my guide
Final warning all stand aside
Sign of the Hammer it's my time

The spell has been broken,
the curse has been lifted
Black is the wind on the heels
Of the Gifted
Four sworn to vengeance,
See the hate in our eyes
Called by the Gods, and given a sign

Onward pounding Into Glory Ride
Sign of the Hammer be my guide
Final warning all stand aside
Old men and young boys, it's my time
Sign of the Hammer, be my guide
Sign of the Hammer, it's my time

 
		All Men Play On Ten 
                -------------------

I made a rock 'n roll sin
When I tried givin in to
make money had to turn down low.
They said, "why be proud, don't play so loud,
be like us and get a sound that's real thin.
Wear a polyester suit, act happy look cute,
get a haircut and buy small gear"
That's when I turned to them and said,
"hold it, right there!"
Well it's more to me than just a job,
and while I'm playin' you won't get robbed.
Nobody tells a man how to play,
It just ain't that way hey, hey, hey,
can you hear me say...
All men play on ten,
never gonna turn down again.
All men play on ten,
never gonna turn down.
I'm jet fuel honey, plug me into 220
Step back and let my fingers fly
While I'm burning up my gear
There's a fire in your ear
That won't stop until the day you die.
I really put it to the floor when I hear the crowd roar
Oh it's music to my ears when they scream
Then I run back to the power rack
and deck all of my gear.
Well it's more to me than just a job,
and while I'm playin' you won't get robbed.
Nobody tells a man how to play,
It just ain't that way hey, hey, hey,
can you hear me say...

 
		Blood Of My Enemies 
                -------------------

Three sons have I, and they
Ride by my side. -The fierce,
The black, and the wicked are
their names -we ride down my
enemies on their half -hearted flight.
No voice of mercy -no evangels of light.

Mighty messengers -heathens rage
Witness our coming -gods of the dead.
I ride through the air -
I laugh as I die -with powers of evil
Dark knowledge is mine.
The ride of the wicked.
The 1st sin was trust. -
Kill without warning -for blood now
I lust.

Strong winds -magic mist
To Asgard the Valkries fly
High overhead -they carry the dead
Where the blood of my enemy lies.

Three sons have I, and they
Ride by my side. -The fierce,
The black, and the wicked are
their names -we ride down my
enemies on their half -hearted flight.
No voice of mercy -no evangels of light.

Strong winds -magic mist
To Asgard the Valkries fly
High overhead -they carry the dead
Where the blood of my enemy lies.

 
		Thor (The Powerhead) 
                --------------------

Black clouds on the horizon
Great thunder and burning rain
His chariot pounding,
I heard the heavens scream his name
I watched as he shouted
To the giants that died that day
He held up his hammer high
And called to Odin for a sign
Thor the mighty, Thor the brave
Crush the infidels in your way
By your hammer let none be saved
Live to die on that final day
Gods, Monsters and Men
We'll die together in the end
God of thunder, god of rain
Earth shaker who feels no pain
The powerhead of the Universe
Now send your never ending curse
Swing your hammer to crack the sky
Lift your cape so that you might fly
Back to Odin and the Gods on High
And leave this mortal world

 
		The Oath 
                --------

Burning embers of the second death will come in the night
Priests and kings, the alpha and omega, poison bites
False prophets and deceivers swing from the trees
Now dawn the age of birds
Drunk with blood, like lepers with disease
Lord of the sky Mercury the guide
Lord of the underworld, I swear the sacred rite
I will crucify, slay them with their tribe
Hear my war cry

They'll find no sanctuary hidden in their ancestral halls
Let loose the knot that binds the spirit and flesh
Let it fall
For only courage and heroism linger after death
So, hold fast thy sword, rejecting pain, feel the dragons
Breath

I've sworn the oath

 
		Battle Hymn 
                -----------

By moonlight we ride
Ten thousands side by side
With swords drawn held high
Our whips and armors shine
Hail to thee our infantry
Still brave beyond the grave
All sworn the eternal vow
The time to strike is now

Kill, kill, Oh!
Kill, kill, Oh!
Kill, kill, Oh!
Kill, kill, Oh!

Gone are the days when freedom shone
Now blood and steel meet bone
In the light of the battle's way
The sands of time will shade
How proud our soldiers stand
With mace and chain in hand
Sound of charge into glory ride
Over the top of the vanquished pride

Victory, victory, Oh!
Victory, victory, Oh!
Victory, victory, Oh!
Victory, victory, Oh!

To the battle we ride
We crossed a starlit sky
No space no time
We'll catch the wind
Strange losses, men died
We crossed a starlit sky
And still no space or time
We'll catch the wind

Kill, kill, Oh!
Kill, kill, Oh!
Kill, kill, Oh!
Kill, kill, Oh!

Sound of charge into glory ride
Over the top of the anguished pride
By moonlight we ride
Ten thousand side by side

Kill, kill, Oh!
Kill, kill, Oh!
Kill, kill, Oh!
Kill, kill, Oh!
