From the beginning of time
The powers of good and evil Have been battling for our souls A war stretching into eternity Fought between heaven and hell Light versus dark Is this a myth, or is it true? The oldest tale on earth The prophecy of Hell, Fire and Damnation 02. Hell, Fire And Damnation
Child of Satan or lamb of God
The choice is yours to make Rule the heavens high or reign in hell Satanic rites and holy prayers Bring supremacy Fighting for our souls until the end The battle rages on through eternity In the fight for good and evil Which one will succeed? Hell, fire and damnation Written in the prophecy Holy fire and salvation Will our souls ever be free? Ever be free The Antichrist and Nazerine Fight the endless war Angels, demons raging back and forth Demonic verses holy script The never ending fight Will the darkness conquer ‘gainst the light? Armies of the evil Warriors of the good battle on forever To find the chosen one Hell, fire and damnation Written in the prophecy Holy fire and salvation Will our souls ever be free? Satan’s fire, heaven’s light The conflict never ends Back and forth they battle for our souls The prophecy written out There for all to read Some believe but others cannot see The battle rages on into eternity The fight for good and evil Which one will it be? Hell, fire and damnation Written in the prophecy Holy fire and salvation Will our souls ever be free? Ever be free Ever be 03. Madame Guillotine
They call me the death
I've come to settle your debts Marie Antoinette, I've took your pretty head I am the scourge of the rich Revenge of the poor Your cries are in vain, I can help with your pain The arrangements are made, you will die by my blade Just let me introduce you to Madame Guillotine She'll be pleased to meet you, but please don't lose your head Madame Guillotine The revolution came I was never to blame It was my purpose to kill But people came for the thrill For the sound of the mob Paying for your blood And I'll show no remorse, I am set on my course All I feel is the drop of my blade Just let me introduce you to Madame Guillotine She'll be pleased to meet you, but please don't lose your head Madame Guillotine There was never enough To satisfy the lust For the head in the basket Another caught for the casket To entertain the crowd Your severed head held proud Have no feeling or guilt, why my structure was built I'm a slave to my masters, I'll do as I'm built Just let me introduce you to Madame Guillotine She'll be pleased to meet you, but please don't lose your head Let me introduce you to Madame Guillotine She'll be pleased to see you, be careful with your head To Madame Guillotine Please don't lose your head To Madame Guillotine To Madame Guillotine 04. Fire And Steel
Feeding the furnace and melting the iron
Twisting and grinding and smelting the steel Steaming and sweating the fruits of their labour The best in the world is called Sheffield steel Flames flying into the night Searing white heat, blinding light Fire and steel made this mighty city Fire and steel, forged by working hands Fire and steel, red hot and heavy Fire and steel, the finest in the land White hot and molten and flowing like lava Bending and shaping and pounding the iron Lifting and shifting the weight of the city Shipping and moving their steel 'cross the world Man and machine never stop Forging their steel on the clock Fire and steel made this mighty city Fire and steel, forged with working hands Fire and steel, red hot and heavy Fire and steel, the finest in the land The sound of the city, the crushing of metal Blend in the iron to make into steel Using the science to fuss with the knowledge A great northern city leading the world Flames flying into the night Searing white heat, blinding light Fire and steel made this mighty city Fire and steel, forged with Yorkshire hands Fire and steel, red hot and heavy Fire and steel, the greatest in the land 05. There's Something In Roswell
Fire in the sky over New Mexico
An alien crash, we’ll never know The farmer and the cops were first on the scene Finding strange metal among the debris A strange silver disc is what they described Searching through the wreckage looking for life Keep it under wraps and keep it out of sight There’s something in Roswell We don’t believe the lies There’s something in Roswell It’s fallen from the sky They said it was a balloon But no one took the bait Photos of the wreckage they told another fate Manipulate the evidence that’s the way to be But you can’t suppress interest There’s got to be something in Roswell We don’t believe the lies There’s something in Roswell That’s fallen from the sky Over the years the questions remained Conspiracies fanning the flames What to believe someone must know Just tell the truth, you gotta let go Too many clues hidden in sight We’re never going to stop or give up the fight What happened that night in New Mexico On the farmers’ ranch you know There’s something in Roswell We don’t believe the lies There’s something in Roswell It’s fallen from the sky There’s something in Roswell We won’t give up the fight There’s something in Roswell That fell to Earth that night Roswell There’s something in Roswell Roswell 06. Kubla Khan And The Merchant Of Venice
Follow the silk road far to the east
Riches await you beyond your belief Legends and myths, the powder of fire Beyond the great wall, the world's greatest empire Over the burning hot sands You search for the city of fire To the court of the Kubla Khan To the temples of Xanadu In the halls of the Kubla Khan You were the chosen one Merchant of Venice The Merchant of Venice From the city on water to the great Chinese wall Your journey will take you to the last Golden Horde To the emperor's great city on the edge of the world A tale of adventure told in your words You searched for the land of the dragon The silk road will carry you there To the court of the Kubla Khan To the temples of Xanadu In the halls of the Kubla Khan You were the chosen one The Merchant of Venice The name Marco Polo, your legend survives A merchant of Venice, we saw through your eyes Long hidden people where dynasty reigned Science and artists, these wonders you gazed Search for the city of fire The trade winds will carry you there To the court of the Kubla Khan To the temples of Xanadu In the halls of the Kubla Khan You were the chosen one To the court of the Kubla Khan To the temples of Xanadu In the halls of the Khan of Khans You were the chosen one Merchant of Venice Merchant of Venice The Merchant of Venice The Merchant of Venice 07. Pirates Of The Airwaves
Just a teenage boy underneath the covers
Listening to the transistor radio Trying to find a station, coming through with static All he wants to hear is the Rolling Stones Radio Luxembourg Radio Caroline Calling out across the sea Just turn the dial, it's all for free Pirates, pirates of the airwaves Pirates, pirates of the airwaves Running from the law, trouble with the government Trying to stop the music blasting through the night Rock star DJs took it to the limit Rebels of the airwaves, playing rock 'n' roll Radio London Town Radio Avalon Radio KSHE Just turn the dial, it's all for free Pirates, pirates of the airwaves Pirates, pirates of the airwaves There was a new wave coming, driven by the music Stoking the rebellion coming from the youth Sending out a message, the time for change is coming The more they try to stop it, the bigger it becomes Radio Luxembourg Radio Caroline Calling out across the sea Just turn the dial, it's all for free Pirates, pirates of the airwaves Pirates, pirates of the airwaves Pirates of the airwaves Pirates of the airwaves Pirates of the airwaves They were pirates of the airwaves 08. 1066
In 1066 in the year of our lord
The conqueror came with warhorse and sword He landed in England at the Pevensey shore From the land of the Normans with bloodline restored A warrior family, a duke and a lord Taking the throne through conflict and war In the Battle of Hastings, one side destroyed A clash of the strongest, to the victor the spoils 1066, the conqueror came Never forget, remember the name In 1066 the Saxons were slain The day that the conqueror came In 1066 1066 Harold had beaten the vikings at Stamford Routing Hardrada, the end of an age Dayglow was finished, the shield war defeated An army triumphant, they marched to their grave But news traveled fast of a second invasion The army of Saxons would face a new foe Tired and weary they marched to the battle Where William was waiting with quiver and bow 1066, the conqueror came Never forget, remember the name In 1066 the Saxons were slain The day that the conqueror came The gathered in splendor in fields near the Hastings They'll fight to the death for England's blood soil No quarter was given, they charged 'gainst each other Battling, slicing and ripping with sword The cavalry charged and cut the defenses The arrows came flying and pierced Harold's eye The Normans were victors, the end of the Saxons A new king would reign, history reborn 1066, the conqueror came Never forget, remember the name In 1066 the Saxons were slain 1066, the conqueror came Never forget, remember the name In 1066 the Saxons were slain The day that the conqueror came In 1066 09. Witches Of Salem
In a sleepy quiet town, down Massachusetts way
The silence sudden broken by the chanting of the bay Circling 'round a woman accused of witchcraft Take it down before the judge to hear the damning draft See the flames of bigotry leaping ever higher Someone has to pay the price to feed the rapture's fire Witches of Salem, burning at the stake Witches of Salem, victims of the hate Witches of Salem, unto Gallows Hill Witches of Salem, they're hungry for the kill Accusations made, filled with weight and malice Betraying friends and neigbours before the holy chalice Standing trial before the mob, hysteria rules the day Preaching fire and brimstone, there's nothing you can say See the flames of bigotry leaping ever higher Someone has to pay the price to feed the rapture's fire Witches of Salem, burning at the stake Witches of Salem, victims of the hate Witches of Salem, onto Gallows Hill Witches of Salem, they're hungry for the kill Hungry for the kill Onto Gallows Hill Who beside the woman, who doesn't seem to fit All it took was just a word to take them to the pit If you plead your innocence you were taken to the trial It didn't matter what you say, they won't believe denial See the flames of bigotry leaping ever higher Someone has to pay the price to feed the rapture's fire Witches of Salem, burning at the stake Witches of Salem, victims of the hate Witches of Salem, onto Gallows Hill (Onto Gallows Hill) Witches of Salem, they're hungry for the kill Witches of Salem, burning at the stake (Burning at the stake) Witches of Salem, victims of the hate Witches of Salem, they're hungry for the kill (Hungry for the kill) Witches of Salem, onto Gallows Hill 10.
