SAVAGE LYRICS

1. Let It Loose

We won’t need to intimidate you
If we get a major breakthrough
So come on – let it loose

You’ve all seen this all before
So come on, get up and off on the floor
Let’s go – let it loose

We’re not here to read your rights
Tonight’s the night you do what you like
Hey you there – let it loose

If it’s much too loud, well, we don’t care
Are you ready – let it loose

Going crazy


We’ve the goods to appetise
Take it all, don’t compromise
Let it loose

Forget tomorrow, we’re here today
Is it what you want, are you gonna stay
What do you say – let it loose

Loose and lethal

2. Cry Wolf

Some say it’s easy
Like taking candy from a child
But still he’d hit the bottle
Like it was going out of style
He said he’d kicked the need
Holding a shot in his hand
But life’s plain indifference
Too much for this man

Gotta give it up
He’s hooked on the stuff
Fooling no one but yourself
As you cry wolf
Pours out another cup
Well, I’ve seen enough
Fooling no one but yourself
Cry wolf

Got a taste for the hard stuff
His self respect hits the ground
Too much trust in the bottle
But the bottle leads down
Lost cry of the wasted
That nobody heard
Alcohol obituary
But nobody cared

He’s gotta give it up
He’s hooked on the stuff
Fooling no one but yourself
As you cry wolf
Pours out another cup
Well, I’ve seen enough
Fooling no one but yourself
As you cry wolf

3. Berlin

It’s getting dark, too dark to see
The streets run cold with anarchy
Troopers came and all was lost
Mass slaughter, human holocaust

Fire over Berlin
Nobody’s safe
No escape when metal rain starts falling
Berlin, it’s all too late

Thirty nine, machines of war
Cross frontier lines the eagle roars
Allied forces and Berlin falls
Razed to the ground, now the spoils

Fire over Berlin
Nobody’s safe
No escape when metal rain starts falling
Berlin, it’s all too late


Too too much complacency
Too afraid to face reality
East to west the Berlin Wall
Thin red line from nuclear holocaust

Fire over Berlin
Nobody’s safe
No escape when metal rain starts falling
Berlin, it’s all too late
Too late

4. Dirty Money

Back street room near the subway line
Set the scene for this shady crime
A married man lays there compromised
Concealed the camera like a private eye

Somebody’s playing dirty
And blackmail’s the name of this game
Set their sights on just one goal, cause
Dirty money’s their aim

Unmarked file contains the sight
Film so revealing from a previous night
Starts to shake, what’s he gonna do
Whichever way he’ll choose, he’s sure to lose

Somebody’s playing dirty
And blackmail’s the name of this game
Set their sights on just one goal, cause
Dirty money’s their aim


Somebody’s playing dirty
And blackmail’s the name of this game
Set their sights on just one goal, cause
Dirty money’s their aim

Midnight sidewalk in the bitter rain
To the ground he threw the burnt remains
He’s paid the price so was this the end
Not a chance, poor little frightened man

Somebody’s playing dirty
And blackmail’s the name of this game
Set their sights on just one goal, cause
Dirty money’s their aim

5. Ain't No Fit Place

A clock screams midnight
In the desperate heart of town
The same old nightmare
Something heavy’s going down

Shouting, screaming
Pain on every face
If you listen loud enough
You can hear it said
This ain’t no fit place

The city sleeps within
Plans are laid for tonight
This calm is unstable
Just one little spark could ignite

Fire burning
Hate on every face
If you listen loud enough
You can hear it said
This ain’t no fit place


Unheard warnings
Nothing heard, nothing seen, nothing done
You think it’s over
Stupid fool, it’s just begun

Shock, confusion
Shame on every face
If you listen loud enough
You can hear it said
This ain’t no fit place

6. On The Rocks

The cold shoulder
And dirty black looks
Old well worn charm
Right down to the luck
This sad affair, who cares, just let it bleed
Two way exchange
Lost on a one way street

On the rocks
Let it bleed
On the rocks
Let it bleed

Pretty bad scene
Gotta get loose
Cause me and you girl
We’re too bad news
Clean break, cut loose
A wolf left free to roam
Cause two into one
No it just don’t go

On the rocks
Let it bleed
On the rocks
Let it bleed
Let it bleed

7. The China Run

See the opium warlords
Feuding in the golden states
Who wins takes the contracts
To feed the western tastes

On and on and on
From here to kingdom come
One slip, you’re hooked
One more fool on the China Run

From mountains deep in Asia
To the west, contraband by sea
Raw juice refined to addiction
Big bucks out in the streets

On and on and on
From here to kingdom come
One slip, you’re hooked
One more fool on the China Run


See the heroin dealer
Stealing off the kids getting high
On the edge, some kid slipping slowly
That final step’s just a matter of time

On and on and on
From here to kingdom come
One slip, you’re hooked
One more fool on the China Run

8. White Hot

Feel it rumbling
White hot and fit to burst
Hard rock fever
Burning up like some hell born curse
Rough cut allies
Lay low the chains of command
Endless power
Necessary for the demand

White hot, white hot rock
White hot, white hot rock

Red cells boiling
Ready for the axe attack
Silhouettes shaping
Like a dark light from out of the black
Light traces pulsing
A cold mist conceals the ground
Clenched fist’s raised up
Sway to the mood of the sound

White hot, white hot rock
White hot, white hot rock

Latent power
Force enough to make you bleed
Harder, faster
Raw to satiate their greed
Overshoot limits
Let’s take it to the point of abuse
Axe victims helpless
Crying out for mercy refused

White hot, white hot rock
White hot, white hot rock
White hot
White hot
White hot

9. No Cause To Kill (Demo)

[Bonus Track]

Trained to kill, paid to fight
No second thoughts if the price is right
Experience is what you need
A violent streak and a case of greed

When there's no
No cause to kill
Oh no no no
No cause to kill

Evil minds breed misdeeds
Their blind ambition is all they see
Hired killers hit hard and fast
Expect no mercy cause they're here to last

When there's no
No cause to kill
Oh no no no
No cause to kill

Bleeding hearts, too late again
Innocent dead lie among the flames
Hell on Earth, nowhere to go
Mercenaries out of control

When there's no
No cause to kill
Oh no no no
No cause to kill

10. The Devil Take You (Demo)

[Bonus Track]

You get your kicks fooling around
Lifting me up and turning me over and putting me down
You know I woudn't do that to you
Tell me woman, do you think I'm getting it through
Sold your soul so now what you gonna do
When the Devil, the Devil takes you

Late at night, getting uptight, sleeping alone
Turn on the light, somethings's not right, you didn't phone
You know I wouldn' do that to you
Tell me woman, do you think I'm getting through
Sold your soul so now what you gonna do
When the Devil, the Devil takes you

Devil may care, he's well aware you got no hope
Think you're alright but you're going out on that Hell bound slope
Tell me woman, just what you gonna do
Too late now, couldn't get right through to you
Sold your soul now there's nothing more to do
Now the Devil, the Devil's gonna take you

11. Back On The Road (Demo)

[Bonus Track]

Burned it out in Memphis
Was too long in L.A.
Felt so alone cause the one I miss
Oh she was too many miles away
So I'll keep right on fighting
Feelings true
Gotta get back on the road
On my way home to you

Played one nighters free for all
But still we made it pay
Ten thousand kids there all wanting more
But there's no way I'll stay
It's not I don't really care
But there's only one thing I wanna do
Gotta get back on the road
On my way home to you

There's two more nights in this city
Then it's all over for me
These one night stands been driving me crazy
You're all I want to see
So I'll keep right on fighting
Yes it's true
Gotta get back on the road
On my way home to you
