1. Beach Panic
[Intro]
2. Pyromanic Man
Who's not afraid
When it's time for a raid
And who keeps the city burning
I am the star
Of the Fantastic Four
In my own imagination
I entertain
All the bored and insane
And I fight their desolation
Day after day
Acting on open stage
For a real mad generation
I'm possessed by fire
Napalm in my veins
All my hearts desire
The world bursting to flames
I'm a rebel
Fire devil
No one's madder than I am
All I want is
Right and justice
I'm the Pyromaniac Man
Why don't you go
To my dynamite show
When I blow up a Cadillac's beauty
You must take heart
When I wanna start
The time fuse of an incendiary
Now you will see
How a little TNT
Beautifies a service station
What a big feat
When it bursts from the heat
With the sound of ruination
I'm possessed by fire
Napalm in my veins
All my hearts desire
The world bursting to flames
I'm a rebel
Fire devil
No one's madder than I am
All I want is
Right and justice
I'm the Pyromaniac Man
Panic in the city
And I show no pity
When I thaw a frozen nation
Flames so high
Like a burning sky
It's ,y new sunset creation
I'm possessed by fire
Napalm in my veins
All my hearts desire
The world bursting to flames
I'm a rebel
Fire devil
No one's madder than I am
All I want is
Right and justice
I'm the Pyromaniac Man
3. Legend Of The Kings
Come across the water to the land of hope
Where's a man who dares to be the king
He don't ever give a damn
"Who's afraid of Uncle Sam?"
All the world belongs to him
Hey you, listen well!
Don't walk on this way
Keep straight in line
You're under my control
Claimed to free a nation from a tyranny
Ordered to his knights: "Bring him alive!"
Tyrant on the run
He's got no chance at all
The reign; and the tyrant
Stains on the history
And so
The legend of the kings
I write it
And mean it
Don't need your majesty
Wield the sceptre like two hundred years ago
Pretender of a godlike mighty king
Patience running out and let the people shout
"Behead the emperor!" and it was done
His back to the wall
The queen beside him crying
Hangman, get on!
A dream was dying
4. Warchild
Eyes that never learned to cry
Eyes that never smiled
Child you never saw the light
But saw when people died
Berlin burned in nineteen forty four
After combat flight attack
World-war left so many starving kids
Childhood's gone and won't come back
Warchild
When will you laugh again
Warchild
Your world destroyed by men Warchild
Violent fights in Palestinian streets
Where children left there innocence
Born into a cruel and grown up world
Stones and rocks in tiny hands because
They have killed their brothers
They have killed their friends
One victim after another
No mercy, just revenge
Time this time
Somewhere an orphan is born
And I ask why
But I can't find an answer
Warchild
When will you laugh again
Warchild
Your world destroyed by men Warchild
They have killed a father
They have killed his wife
Their son keeps on defending
Tries hard to stay alive
Time this time
Another orphan is born
And I ask why
But I can't find an answer
Warchild
When will you laugh again
Warchild
Your world destroyed by men Warchild
5. Paralysed
Days of sorrow and unspoken pain
No tomorrow I will die in chains
Hollow sighs descend whispering down
Ghostly eyes fixing the iron lung
Soon I'll be gone
On the bike, just you and me
And immortality
Leather jackets and tattoos
Born to Booze
No grief, no mercy, breath and bite
Unchained energy
Riding hard, fast and wild
We're the youth
I pick up speed, the cycle rears
It is the final fight
Metal bursts, machine explodes
My last cry
Through the dark, the ambulance
Pulsing out red light
Like blood out shredded arteries
Shall I die
Don't gaze at me
Set me free
And agree
To gods decree
No voice to crave
Please let me die
No hands to stroke
I'm paralysed
Doctor knows I can't survive
And doesn't let me go
Save me from a robot life
And break the law
Switch off the machinery
And don't call the nurse
I'll wake up among mysteries
Death or birth
Don't gaze at me
Set me free
And agree
To gods decree
No voice to crave
Please let me die
No hands to stroke
I'm paralysed
6. Like A Roller-Coaster
Late at night, guess what I do
Changin' place up to mainstreet, cause
When you will come to the alleyways
You gotta feel it
Check out the guy in his limousine
What is he good for tonight
Like a roller coaster
Gets me high and low
Like a highball shooter
Needs a nightlife show
Showin' off gutter lady, look
Some gotta hold up a liquor shop
Somebody's dying by crack
Suck it to me
Dirty bad town, your loudness
Suck it to me
Paranoid city, grandiose fair
Give it to me
Dirty bad town, your loudness
Give it to me
Red light city, dressed to kill
Suck it to me
Dirty bad town, your loudness
Suck it to me
Paranoid city, grandiose fair
Give it to me
Dirty bad town, your loudness
Give it to me
Red light city, dressed to kill
High heeled shoes, love for money
Cheap perfume keep its promise well
When you will come to the alleyways
You gotta see it
Heading for extremes, variety
Live it up downtown tonight
I don't tell no tale
I write it on the mirror
My advice for your eyes
Don't buy no ticket
You can get it if you want it
Just for free, come with me
Like a roller coaster
It's a prime time show
Like a giant wheel's turning
Get its high and low
Suck it to me
Dirty bad town, your loudness
Suck it to me
Paranoid city, grandiose fair
Give it to me
Dirty bad town, your loudness
Give it to me
Red light city, dressed to kill
7. Blood Is Red
Blood is red in everyone
Blood is red in you and me
Blood is red in all of us
Blood is red
He's black
She's red
They're white
And bad
Can you understand the meaning
These simple praying words
That we have to stop the bleeding
And accept as well the fact
Blood is red in everyone
Blood is red in you and me
Blood is red in all of us
Blood is red
And when the night comes
At the point of the sword
And the blood runs
In the name of the lord
And the heat's on
When the Klan is marching on
White hate
The black
And red
To death
And when the Klan comes
With the flaming cross
And the blood run
To the gallows pole
And the house burns
With their rage and guns
They gonna make'em run
Till the deal is done
Blackman
Sioux Tribe
And Jew
That's true
And the white man's still believing
That his veins are full of gold
And I often tried conceiving
Am I part of this injustice
Blood is red in everyone
Blood is red in you and me
Blood is red in all of us
Blood is red
8. Letter From Beyond
Dear who's listening to
I write these lines to send to you
Ain't no fairytale
From purgatory comes a mail
Dear unbeliever
I testify to you receiver
No more horizon
Where silver waters flow
And winds of velvet blow
Dear wasted years
Journey's at an end
Destination: Judgement Day
To where I went and cast away
No I haven't met
Though I wish I had
Long forgotten heroes
Of a faded unique century
I'm a hellbound soldier
Letter from beyond
Here I do confess
I went to far to certain death
Ain't no guarantee
I pay to you don't follow me
Shine, shine your light on
Blazing fire, violet haze
No more horizon
Where silver waters flow
And winds of velvet blow
Dear wasted days
Always on my mind
Absolution on its way
Promised but not yet replied
I'm a hellbound soldier
Letter from beyond
Kingdom come
Without return
Why me of all
All this is
Far beyond imagination
Much too far to see
Father it is your creation
Much too hard to be
Far out but got one illusion
This is what I want
Father read this testimony
Letter from beyond
Dear who's left behind
Nothing good out here to find
I broke a chain
Bound around a life in pain
Dear who's next to come
Await a cosmic vacuum, with
No more horizon
Right behind the border
Kingdom come
Without return
Why me of all
All this is
Far beyond imagination
Much too far to see
Father it is your creation
Much too hard to be
Far out but got one illusion
This is what I want
Father read this testimony
Letter from beyond
9. Bury My Heart
When the day is done
I'm walking down the docks
Side by side with old companions
We sit down to watch the sunset
Over dirty rocks
We're sons of the ancient hunters
We are born for
Hunting game
Endless pain
There I want to stay
No more fish in the stream
The American Dream
Has destroyed the land of Indians
White man's money's ruling again
But we stand up to them
Talkin', smokin'
Visions will lead us the way
Goin' to
Mountains high
Eagles fly
There I want to die
I will rise and fall
Bury my heart
At Wounded Knee
They have slain my father's body
But his spirit is still alive
He rides across a sacred country
In freedom and eternal life
I will join him at his fire
Some day
It's my favorite desire
To hear the tale when he said
I will rise and fall
Bury my heart
At Wounded Knee
10. Iron Wheels
The maze of self is a prison
A senseless hunt for the past
The vultures took the decision
This treacherous kits of a needle
Will be the last
A look at a distorting mirror
I don't know where I have gone
It reflected a picture of horror
Transmutation had begun
You'll die every night
Lost in pain
Nine times crucified
Let me down
Iron wheels are crying loud
Leading down a stair
Every more, my mind climbs down
To find, below, despair
A horrid beautiful maiden
Ready to suck my blood
She wants an intoxication
Smiles and tears out my heart
You'll die every night
Lost in pain
Nine times crucified
Let me down
Iron wheels are crying loud
Leading down a stair
Every more, my mind climbs down
To find, below, despair
You'll die every night
Lost in pain
Nine times crucified
Let me down
Iron wheels are crying loud
Leading down a stair
Every more, my mind climbs down
To find, below, despair
11. Dirty Surfaces
You know that you have got
Whatever you want
But now all is worn-out
Wherever you go decays
And you can feel
The surgeon whets the steel
And now you want to break the hourglass
You can't hold the time of innocence
The sands are running out
Dirty surfaces
Lost paradise
Dirty surfaces
No way out
Black rain ashes and flames
Are heaven's tears
Go on with senseless pride
And digital mind
The world is a broker's gain
But nature cries sold out!
And now you want to break the hourglass
You can't hold the time of innocence
The sands are running out
Dirty surfaces
Lost paradise
Dirty surfaces
No way out
You know that you have got
Whatever you want
But now
You don't know what is knowledge or ignorance
You're convinced of freedom you don't have
Damned to live on
Dirty surfaces
Lost paradise
Dirty surfaces
No way out
