Tygers Of Pan Tang Tribute EP

 Gangland

Help me protect me get me out of this place
No chance no hope in the rat race
They don’t care they don’t see where you’ve been,
They don’t wanna know that you can’t cope with anything

No easy come, easy go not too fast, not too slow
Must get up, but you’re pulled back down
If you mess around with fire you’re gonna get yourself burnt

Hit it, break it, kick down the door.
If you want some you’ll get some of the action.
They still laugh at your part in their play
They hide the truth ain’t no cure for a messed up youth

Can’t stand can’t change the social gangland
All stick together you will never break their wall.
They don’t care they don’t see where you’ve been,
They don’t wanna know that you can’t cope with anything

Silver And Gold

Rich man poor man beggar man, thief
Winner, loser the strong and the weak
Silver & Gold

No less, but the best is all you talk about
Got plenty of money you’ll never go without
Silver & Gold

All your Silver can’t buy a friend
More you get the more you want greed you won’t defend
Silver & Gold

Slave To Freedom

You shout about your freedom you bleed for weak and poor
Pouring out your conscience of which you're really sure
But who will save democracy when all the killing's done?
Certainly not you with your bombs and knives and guns
Slave to freedom

The bodies of the fallen will be your epitaph
You may not laugh the longest but you will not laugh the last
And who will save democracy when all the killing's done?
Certainly not you with your bombs and knives and guns
Slave to freedom

Slave to freedom your rules are nearly through
Slave to freedom you shout for you and you
You shout about the innocent but your guilt is plain to see
The money's in your pocket when the head counting is through
Slave to freedom

Blood Red Sky

Watch the rain watch the rain

They came out of nowhere, from a thunderous sky
One moment they're here, the next they are gone in the blink of an eye
They came without warning, from far distant lands
Free from all sins, they ride divine winds with blood on their hands
Watch it rain on the ocean from a blood red sky
Watch it rain on the ocean from a blood red sky

Voices were calling, but no one could hear
They attack with surprise, red sun in their eyes and nothing to fear
The rain kept on falling, from a thunderous sky
They left nothing behind but the sound on the wind of the souls as they cried
Watch it rain on the ocean from a blood red sky
Watch it rain on the ocean from a blood red sky

They came out of nowhere, from a thunderous sky
One moment they're here, the next they are gone in the blink of an eye
The rain kept on falling, from a thunderous sky
They left nothing behind but the sound on the wind of the souls as they cried
Watch it rain on the ocean from a blood red sky
Watch it rain on the ocean from a blood red sky

Rock & Roll Dream

I need to get away from this town if only for a day 
I need to strut my stuff the walls are closing in 
Don't think I'll ever will reaching for the moon 
If I don't get there soon there's gonna be a fight 
Might even be tonight I'm gonna scream and shout 
Before I knock you out

Run! ... Hide! I'm still gonna find you
The whole things driving me insane got it running through my veins
I live the.. Rock & Roll Dream
Got to live the.. Rock & Roll Dream
I live the.. Rock & Roll Dream
I can't fight it no won't fight it gonna live the Rock & Roll Dream

Take all your stupid rules you won't ever make me see
I'm not the usual fool I never will agree
The problem that I've got, is that I want the lot
Move over, step aside, Psycho certified
My anger takes control, lies heavy on my soul
You don't wanna see what this means to me

Spotlight can't pin me down I'm always on the move
Let loose around this town much I could prove
I run before I walk, kick out before I talk
Don't ever question me, cos I don't wanna be
I'm gonna take my chance, I'll make a song a dance
I make to use tonight, I'm gonna shoot on sign

Tyger Bay

Look out, nowhere to hide they don’t care down there,
It’s a hard fight to survive you’ll never be prepared….
See the blood on the sidewalk listen to violence talk
Hear the night call over the city the kids begin their war….

Gotta get out gotta get away you’ll have to pay,
If you stay too long in Tyger Bay….

The street claims, one more life’s got no direction
Can’t depend on the law too much frustration,….
Women gaze from red windows in expensive rags,
Selling themselves to shadows can’t hide their scars….

What can I do what can I say to change the situation,
You’re on your own, no helping hand so lost and alone….
People don’t care, they always stay away from the place,
Get out while you can there’s too much hate
