W.A.S.P. LYRICS

1. Crazy

You look at me and
Think that you want me
Ooh love's a liar
That claims to be lonely

No, you're never gonna see
No, I'm never gonna be
What you want me
No, I'm never gonna feel
All you're ever gonna be's
Insane if you want me

You gotta be crazy to say you love me
No, I don't wanna know no, no
I don't wanna
I'm never letting you say, say you love me
No, I don't wanna know no, no
Don't ever let it show no, no

The heart's wicked wild
Ooh you can't hold me
Ooh lie to yourself
And think that you own me

You gotta be crazy to say you love me
No, I don't wanna know no, no
I don't wanna
I'm never letting you say, say you love me
No, I don't wanna know no, no
Don't ever let it show no, no

Not want you want
Never gonna be
You're never gonna see
I'm not want you want
I'm never gonna be
No you're never gonna see
I'm never gonna be
What you want me
You gotta be crazy to say you love me
No, I don't wanna know no, no
I don't wanna
I'm never letting you say, say you love me
No, don't ever tell me
Don't ever tell me no
No, no I, I said I know I
Oh I don't wanna know
I don't wanna know

2. Live To Die Another Day

Yes I walk through valleys deep
Shadows of death I will fear no thing
I fear no man and no evil speak
No slave to grave and no death to be
Almighty's riding next to me
I know I've, I got the devil to beat

Hellbounds are running close to me
On the trail of my life
I was hellbound but now I'm running free
From Satan's Angels of Light

Resurrect me high
An then rise me up
Reaper leaving my bones
I'm dead asleep until now
You wake me up
Rapture me and I'm gone

I'll live to die
Die another day
Another place, another time
I'll live to die – Oh Lord I'll
Rise to life again
I will live to die another time

Oh so close I feel him breathe
Devil's come for my life
Showdown's a coming round ya see
A bigger gun I come to take his life

Resurrect me high
And shake me up
Leave the Reaper my bones
Raise the dead in me now
And take me up
Rapture me and I'm gone

Yes I walk through valleys deep
I will fear no man I will fear no speak
No slave to grave and no death to be
Almighty's riding next to me

3. Babylon's Burning

Listen close to hooves you hear
Are thunders coming dread
John the Revelator's dream
Had seen a terror vision
Of the spirit led
With wrath to reign
And with slaves to flame
They kneeled and sealed a kiss
Plagues and pain and fiery rain
And blaspheme on his lips

Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals
A pale rider and his horses sing
Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast
Bears the mark of Babylon to be

Arising with the beast a sea of men
A bloody moon of red
A whore of Babylon to bleed the seed
And make 'em take the mark upon their heads

They bowed and kneeled a mark to seal
Their souls unto a kiss
With fire and flames and with
Souls to claim
And rise from the abyss

[Revelation 13]
And I stood upon the sand of the sea
And saw a beast rise out of the sea
Having ten horns and seven heads
Ten crowns upon his head
Who is like unto the beast?
Given his mouth great things to speak
If any man has an ear
Let him hear, let him hear

4. Burn

[DEEP PURPLE cover]

The sky is red I don't understand
Past midnight I still see the land
People are sayin' the woman is damned
She makes you burn with a wave of her hand
The city's a blaze the town's on fire
The woman's flames are reachin' higher
We were fools we called her liar all I hear is burn
I didn't believe she was devil's sperm
She said curse you all you'll never learn
When I leave there's no return
The people laughed til she said burn
Warning came no one cared
Earth was shakin' we stood and stared
When it came no one was spared still I hear burn
You know we had no time we could not even try
You know we had no time
You know we had no time we could not even try
You know we had no time
The sky is red I don't understand
Past midnight I still see the land
People are sayin' the woman is damned
She makes you burn with a wave of her hand
Warning came no one cared
Earth was shakin' we stood and stared
When it came no one was spared still I hear burn burn

5. Into The Fire

Give it to me slow
Give now to me
Scream in my ear
Give it loud to me
Ooh come feel confusion
Its illusion it ain't real
Your love your lust
Could never feel
Their thief in my eyes
Oh I come to steal
Ooh I gave it all to you
Give it all to me

You gave into the fire
Don't blame it on me
Your devil's your desire now
No, ain't no shame on me
Give into the fire
Get down on your knees
And fame's your desire
Don't tell it, don't tell it to me

Your lust I can feel
don't cry my name
I don't wanna hear it
You passion, you pain
Ooh my name is fame
And I don't claim
To be real
I take it all from you
Give it all to me

You gave into the fire
Don't blame it on me
Your devil's your desire now
No, ain't no shame on me
Give into the fire
Get down on your knees
I don't want you to love me
Just give it all, give it all to me

Laid down in the fire
You gave into me
Face in desire, oh my
Shame ain't no thing to me
Led you to a liar
Never gonna see
Fed you to a lion, trying
See in me what you thought I'd be
Oh it's all about lust
Say what you will
Say it
Say fame's all you need
Say things you believe
Can you say that you don't need?
Say that you don't bleed?
You're burning up up up
Say you're up up up, take me
Up up celebrate me, made you take me
Made you break me

6. Thunder Red

There's a creature coming born
Of your pagan blessed
There is thunder coming down
Around your head
Ride the fire now momma
Thunder's come again
A soul to flame and rain down on ya
Red rider said

The hills are running red
Better hide under your bed
Hide your children mother
Thunder red
The hills are turning red
Get on your knees and beg
Thunder red's a-coming
Thunder red

You're reaping nothing more
Than your shamelessness
Then sew it all together
When he comes
Ride it down now momma
Fire's come again
Come to claim the souls to blame and
Riding off with them

The hills are running red
Better hide under your bed
Hide your children mother
Thunder red
The hills are turning red
Get on your knees and beg
Thunder red's a-coming
To get you red

Fathers and nuns, nowhere to run
Four horsemen riding on the wind
Momma hide your sons
Daddy get your gun
Four hooves of thunder's come again
Oh, run red

Red thunder's coming home
For your blamelessness
And rolling you forever in your dust
Ride the fire now momma
Thunder's coming again
Ain't no time to hide and cry, get
On your knees and beg

7. Seas Of Fire

Look out baby
Time to wake up
Make up your bed
Storm's a coming
Got a fire that's right on your head

Oh, get up, get up, get off your knees
Get up, get up and rise
The seas are on fire
Oh, get up, get up get on your feet
Get up, get up tonight

Sky's on fire
And the hills are all running red
Babies crying there's a rider come for your head

Say hello to the judgment seat
Say good night, it's all right
Say hello to a fiery sea
The stars all fall down tonight

Sky's on fire
And the hills are running red
Babies crying there's a rider come for your head

8. Godless Run

Lost on this road to be
Someone I would find
Pride for the fall to be
The heart becomes blind
I rise my eyes to see
A mirror that lied to me
Find time's gone and made me be
Afraid of the younger man
I used to be

I did not run to you
Lost on my road of ruin
I did not run to you
In my Godless run

Long had I gone to be
A slave to my eyes
Lost at that cross to kneel
Amazing grace saved my life

No, I cannot breath no more
No, I cannot breath no more
No, I cannot feel for sure
No,no I cannot breath no more
Oh how long Lord
Did I kneel at the crossroads and run
Oh, bow down now
My king, my God I come

Oh I will not run from you
Lost on my road of ruin
No I will not run from you
In my Godless run
No, no I will not run
I'll not run, I will not run
Oh no, no I will not run from you
Oh no my Godless run

9. Promised Land

[C. Berry cover]

Dig it I left my home in Norfolk Virginia
California on my mind
Straddled that Greyhound
Rode him in the Raleigh on across Caroline
We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle
Half way across Alabam
And that 'hound broke down and left us all stranded
In downtown Birmingham
Raleigh bought me a through train ticket
Ridin' cross Mississippi clean
I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham
Smokin' into New Orleans
Somebody help me get out of Louisiana
Just help me get to Houston town
There are people there who care a little 'bout me
And they won't let the poor boy down whoo
Sure as you're born they bought me a silk suit
Put a luggage in my hands
And I woke up high over Albuquerque
On a jet to the promised land
Workin' on a t bone steak a la carte
Flyin' over to the Golden State
And the pilot told us in thirteen minutes
He would send us to the terminal gate
Ah swing low chariot come down easy
Taxi to the terminal zone
Cut your engines and cool your wings
And let me make it to the telephone
Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia
Tidewater four ten o nine
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And the poor boy's on the line
Workin' on a t bone steak a la carte
Flyin' over to the Golden State
And the pilot told us in thirteen minutes
He would send us to the terminal gate
Swing low chariot come down easy
Taxi to the terminal zone
Cut your engines and cool your wings
And let me make it to the telephone
Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia
Tidewater four ten o nine
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And the poor boy's on the line whoo
