Wheels Of Steel

When my foots on the throttle there's no looking back
I leave the motor ticking over when she's back on the track
I've got a 68 Chevy with pipes on the side
You know she's my idea of beauty, that's what I drive
She's got wheels of steel She's got wheels of steel
Wheels of steel talking about my wheels of steel

I don't take no jive from the motorway pigs
When I'm cruising down the freeway I don't get no lifts
If you see me coming get out of my way
You know a Trans Am didn't, I blew it away
She's got wheels of steel She's got wheels of steel
Wheels of steel talking about my wheels of steel

I'm burning aviation fuel my foot's to the floor
Ya know she's cruising one-forty she'd do even more
I'm burning solid rubber I don't take no bullshit
Because my wheels of steel are rolling they're rolling your way
She's got wheels of steel She's got wheels of steel
Wheels of steel talking about my wheels of steel

Look out I'm burning aviation fuel my foot's to the floor
Ya know she's cruising one-forty she'd do even more
I'm burning solid rubber I don't take no bullshit
Because my wheels of steel are rolling if you're coming come quick
She's got wheels of steel She's got wheels of steel
Wheels of steel talking about my wheels of steel

 Just Let Me Rock

You can take away the money you can take away the gold
You can tell me it's the truth you know it isn't so
You can say that I'm a vandal when I ain't done nothing wrong
You can say you've had a good time when you've really thought it bad
But just let me rock just let me rock

You can take away the profit you can give away my share
You can tell me it's a diamond when it's just a piece of glass
You can tell me I've got nothing when I hold it in my hand
You can say a scrap of paper was a contract that I signed
But just let me rock just let me rock

You can take away my heroes you can take away my pride
You can tell me I can trust you then take me for a ride
You can say I'm drinking water when I'm really drinking wine
You can say I'm really clever then you laugh behind my back
But just let me rock just let me rock

Metalhead

You only fool yourself if you think we are alone
You can't deny the truth it's here it's plain to see
But do they come as friends our brothers from the stars
Or are they here to take our place and rule our world
Heed the warning come the day
They walk among us Metalhead

Did they come for you through mists of swirling light
You had a childhood dream abduction in your sleep
You start to scream out loud but no one hears your voice
You never feel the implant deep inside your head
Heed the warning come the day
They walk among us Metalhead

Your tiny world revolves in a sea of endless space
Are you feeling safe protected from the skies
They come and go at will there's nothing you can do
We only stand and stare at powers they possess
Heed the warning come the day
They walk among us Metalhead

Piss Off

How come everytime you feel real good somebody drops you a piss off bomb
How come everytime you roll the dice somebody offers you the wrong advise
Not again just when I am feeling happy 
Not again just when you are feeling fine
Take it slow, don't go fast looking good never lasts
Different day same old song then somebody drops you a piss off bomb

In and out, roundabout, try to sort your feelings out can you see the full moon rising
Break the spell, ring the bell, trapped inside your private hell can't you see the far horizon
Down drag you down, just when you are feeling happy
Down drag you down, just when you are feeling fine
Take it slow, don't go fast looking good never lasts
Different day same old song then somebody drops you a piss off bomb

How come everytime you feel real good somebody drops you a piss off bomb
How come everytime you roll the dice somebody offers you the wrong advise
Round turn you round, just when you are feeling happy
Down drag you down, just when you are feeling fine
Take it slow, don't go fast looking good never lasts
Different day same old song then somebody drops you a piss off bomb

Dirty Double Dealer

You sharp shooter bad loser you give nothing away
When you took all money it wasn't funny we didn't get it for free
I'm gonna get back up on my feet stop turning my life around
You dirty double dealer stay out of my life
You dirty double dealer get out of my sight

Wheeler and dealer you dream stealer you got nothing to say
When I was working for nothing you need stopping you never get away
You're just running around with nothing to do you're like a dog without a bone
You dirty double dealer stay out of my life
You dirty double dealer get out of my sight

Now you're running we keep coming you're gonna have to pay
When you took the money it wasn't funny you can't get get blood from a stone
I'm gonna get back up on my feet and stop turning my life around
You dirty double dealer stay out of my life
You dirty double dealer get out of my sight

 Dogs Of War

Come to the reaper sing the song, bringing death to everyone
Once the earth was calm and safe, but now the land's a battle place
Firing shells into the air, where they land, no-one cares
Now the blood flows like a stream, widowmaker reigns supreme

Dogs of war, no surrender
Dogs of war, I kill the defender
Dogs of war, scream into battle
Dogs of war, it's the day of the jackal

Nothing seems to ease the pain, the reaper's shadow still remains
Sniper lets the bullet fly, in the distance someone die
The town becomes an empty shell, come and spend a day in hell
Forgotten what we're fighting for, no-one wins this bloody war 

Lay the wreath across the flag, fill another body bag
Guard of honour standing proud, put your son into the ground
Did they die for you and me, a sacrifice for liberty
A generation dead and gone, the reaper sings his deadly song
