01. Superheroes

City lights are calling
Slowly coming back to life
Speeding in the fast lane
Mama let us waste no time
Devil in the doorway
Selling any kind of hell
We're just coming out to play the game

And we never cry for love
We're superheroes
We are back where we belong
We never cry for pain
We're superheroes
Make a stand where we belong

Way to long I've tried to be
What I could never be
For too long you've rolled the dice
But you can't control me
I ain't talking about romance
You may fiddle I may dance
Anyway it's just a game we play

And we never cry for love
We're superheroes
We are back where we belong
We never cry for pain
We're superheroes
Make a stand where we belong

You gotta move to stay alive
We're gonna rock the bash tonight

And we never cry for love
We're superheroes
We are back where we belong
We never cry for pain
We're superheroes
Make a stand where we belong

02. Spooks In The Attic

Always tried so hard to leave a tragic story
It's tearing me apart you never really care
Never met with your approval from your higher category
Found life at killing pace and wanna have my share

I've been led to the water to lap up
So I'm not gonna dry out draining

King of the mountain
Devil has taken my reason
I got spooks in the attic
We dance on the mountain
And pleasure replacing my reason
Got spooks in the attic

I'm a family kind of man I've lately started number ten
Too alien to find somebody home
Hyper salivation - hyper ventilation
Heading for the grail across the sea of lubrication
I'm out for it while rather on my own
Don't you see all the water so get down
If you don't wanna dry out draining

King of the mountain
Devil has taken my reason
I got spooks in the attic
We dance on the mountain
And pleasure replacing my reason
Got spooks in the attic

There is no place for reason
Taking to the crest
And you won't go down in history with reason
And that stand no reason

[Solo]

King of the mountain
Devil has taken my reason
I got spooks in the attic
We dance on the mountain
And pleasure replacing my reason
Got spooks in the attic

03. Blessing In Disguise

Living in a screenplay
She had never read the end
And no one else is to see it
THe pain of abrasions
Covered with a smile
No one to look underneath

In a lonesome night she ran away
In quest for light and then she found fire

Flying on broken wings
Uprising from the ruins
Living on broken dreams
What a night to come alive
Living on broken wings
What a blessing in disguise
A blessing in disguise

You're a star in a comedy
Never proofread by yourself
So that wicked sense of humor is divine?
And the cries of a bleeding child
May become a vow
Nevermore you'll fall into line

Every long cold night you dream - oh
Rain on you, pain you, you scream
You desire...

Flying on broken wings
Uprising from the ruins
Living on broken dreams
What a night to come alive
Living on broken wings
What a blessing in disguise
A blessing in disguise

[Solo]

Flying on broken wings
Uprising from the ruins
Living on broken dreams
What a night to come alive
Living on broken wings
What a blessing in disguise
A blessing in disguise

04. Judas At The Opera

Lyrics by These lyrics border on David Lynchiansim
Darkness has covered the opera house
Something is wrong you can fell
There's a devil in disguise
A traitor has taken the dais
Catalogue people spend a pitying gaze
What can a man do in such a case
Aristocratic experts on art vomit all over the place

And they wish I'd be doomed eternally

Forever French-frying
You'd love to see me dying
Wo's let the peacock in to
Rock the house - opera house
You want me French-fried and
You'd love to see me fired and
Then kill Judas in the opera house
Opera house

Huntsmen are rushing around
After the peacock oh no
The baton is pink and it's clear: He is a queer
He likes it into his rear
Rumors arise he is from outerspace
They're out for the bounty
And still they're amazed
Aristocratic lemmings with a highsnobiety leer

Get the chef to make peacock fillet steak

Forever French-frying
You'd love to see me dying
Wo's let the peacock in to
Rock the house - opera house
You want me French-fried and
You'd love to see me fired and
Then kill Judas in the opera house
Opera house

We came from a solar system far away
Facing your goggle eyes
To protect this jolly bedlam from decay
Facing your goggle eyes
Who do you think you are
To think you're off a better class?
Who do you think you are
TO expect us to kiss your ass?

We've come to chase the monkey off your back
Facing your goggle eyes
And we're expected some may sound an attack
Facing your goggle eyes
Who do you think you are
To think you're of a higher class?
Who do you think you are
To expect us to kiss your ass?

We're gonna be
Taking a chance - taking the chance
To get you darting a glance - darting a glance
At us starting to prance - starting the dance
Of the oddballs

And you're invited

Taking the chance - taking the chance
To get you darting a glance - darting a glance
At us starting to prance - starting to dance
Of the oddballs

Frankenstein is out of control
Donkey has been given a soul
Flamboyantly he's playing his song
And they can't get it

The nuthead he is going insane
The screwball is igniting the flame
Pandora's box has opened behold
Madness rising

[Solo]

You say treason but I tell you
There ain't no reason
We just have our share
We don't care as long as we're alive
Love our sound and like to hear:

Where's the chef to make Judas-fillet-steak

Forever French-frying
You'd love to see me dying
Wo's let the peacock in to
Rock the house - opera house
You want me French-fried and
You'd love to see me fired and
Then kill Judas in the opera house
Opera house

05. The Spirit

Don't place your trust in foolish promises sworn
Nor cryptic message scrawled upon every wall
Street corner justice beware
The spirit will find you always be fair
The shallow verse once read means nothing at all
Nor fearful gestures made for instant recall
In lies your heart will not share
The spirit inside used without care

[Chorus:]
The spirit that guides you follow it through
To the spirit inside you always be true
You know you'll despair
If the spirit inside is used without care

The battlefield of glory pales into rust
The river flows much thicker fed by each thrust
No beast alive does compare
The spirit beside you everywhere
Let not your head be turned by tainted reward
And dreams of fortune won forever to hoard
Your conscience could not repair
The spirit inside used without care

The spirit that guides you follow it through
To the spirit inside you always be true
You know you'll despair
If the spirit inside is used without care

[Solo]

The spirit that guides you follow it through
To the spirit inside you always be true
You know you'll despair
If the spirit inside is used without care

06. Superheroes (Epic Version)

City lights are calling
Slowly coming back to life
Speeding in the fast lane
Mama let us waste no time

Devil in the doorway
Selling any kind of hell
We're just coming out to play the game

We never cry for love
We're superheroes
We are back where we belong
We never cry for pain
We're superheroes
Man can stand where he belong

Way to long I've tried to be
What I could never be
For too long you've rolled the dice
But you can't control me

I ain't talking 'bout romance
You may fit, a love may chance
Anyway it's a just game we play

We never cry for love
We're superheroes
We are back where we belong
We never cry for pain
We're superheroes
Man can stand where he belong

We never cry for love
Man can stand where he belong
