01. Metal Heart

Music & lyrics by Accept
It is 1999
The human race has to face it
They are confronted with the truth
It's secret -- mysterious

A surgeon said it in the news
The human race is dying
But the result is no disease
Searching for you

Metal heart -- metal heart
They found it everywhere
Metal heart -- metal heart
Lifeless piece of steel

The scaring fact was even told
Total confusion
They found the same nightmare
Heartbeats -- timebombs

Metal heart -- metal heart
Unplugged they're dying
Metal heart -- metal heart
Unplugged they die

Metal heart -- metal heart
They found it everywhere
Metal heart -- metal heart
Lifeless piece of steel

Metal heart -- metal heart -- metal heart
Unplugged they're dying
Metal heart -- metal heart

02. Breaker

Music & lyrics by Accept
Rollin' just like thunder,
tryin' to get you down
Mistreatin' ev'rythin',
if you were king he'd take your crown
If you were adead man
he'd take ya from your grave
He will not mourn for you or me

Happines he cannot feel
and love to him is so unreal
He burns like hell, he wants you dead,
alltogether hate's all he feel
Movin' like a spider' killin' off a fly
No hands, just fists, no heart, just rocks

Icicle brains
Bicycle chains

Rulin' like a tyrant,
teasin' ev'ryone around
He drags his legs, he plants his feet,
he's botherin' the ground
Here and now this man
you see plans his terror free
He's born to rule, a king to be

Icicle brains
Bicycle chains

He's a breaker
He will take ya
Destroyin' all around you
He's a breaker
He's a taker
He'd kill, maim, destroy to the end

Movin' like a spider,
preyin' on the rest
Rulin' like a tyrant,
tyrannosaurus rex
You could be a dead man,
and you won't know why
No hands, just fists,
no heart, just rocks

Icicle brains
Bicycle chains

He's a breaker
He will take ya
Destroyin' all around you
He's a breaker
He's a taker
He'd kill, maim, destroy to the end

03. Screaming for a Love-bite

Music & lyrics by Accept
Screaming for a love-bite
And you hide it, that it makes you feel alright
See your secret in a mirror
It's black'n'blue and it happened to you
In the heat of the night

It hurts just the first time
Ooh, it hurts
It hurts just the very first time

Screaming for a love-bite
For a love-bite
Hiding that it feels right
Screaming for a love-bite

Grinding makes so uptight
And you gotta face it, 'cause it decorates your neck
It's gonna stay there
Stay there for a long time
Just to remind you while you like it
When you went on and on

It hurts just the first time
Ooh, it hurts
It hurts just the very first time

Screaming for a love-bite
For a love-bite
Hiding that it feels right
Screaming for a love-bite
Screaming for a love-bite ...

04. Up to the Limit

Music & lyrics by Accept
Too many things happened today
Too many words I don't wanna say
I wanna be cool but the heat's coming up
I'm ready to kill 'cause enough is enough

All I can say - out of my way
Before I get to the top
All I can feel is wild running blood
Please stop - you better watch it

It's getting up to the limit
Up to the limit
It's getting up to the limit
Up to the limit

Do me a favour and leave me alone
The most I love you is when you're gone
Please, disappear and don't come back
I'm not the kind of guy you can check

All I can say - out of my way
Before I get to the top
All I can feel is wild running blood
Please stop - you better watch it

It's getting up to the limit
Up to the limit
It's getting up to the limit
Up to the limit

To the limit - up to the limit
To the limit - up to the limit

It's getting up to the limit
Up to the limit
It's getting up to the limit
Up to the limit

Up to the limit

It's getting up to the limit
Up to the limit
It's getting up to the limit
Up to the limit

To the limit - up to the limit
To the limit - up to the limit

05. Living for Tonight

Music & lyrics by Accept
Always on the run
Where you are going, what you are doing
Looking just for fun
Love the twilight, love the dark

Rats - are all around
And I am waiting for a head
Take what you want
And if you need it take it now
Guess it will be just alright

I'm living for tonite - tonite
Living for tonite - tonite

Working out my way
Find some ramp-rats, find some victims
Bad games all night long
We need to hid it just for fun

Games - we shouldn't play
And if you need some help - just wait
I'm going out into the dark
Guess it will be just alright

I'm living for tonite - tonite
Living for tonite - tonite

Gimme your body
Take what you want
Can't wait anymore

I'm living for tonite - living for tonite
Tonite - living for tonite
Tonite - living for tonite
Tonite - I'm living, living for tonite

06. Princess of The Dawn

Music & lyrics by Accept
There's rain on the mountain
A white frost on the moors
It's an epoch of eternity
Waters touch the holy shore

It's a land of mystery
The world of unseen eyes
You can feel the shadow of a princess
She waits for you inside

The guardians of God play the pawns
Beg for mercy - hail the queen
Princess of the Dawn

In the war of the dragons
Young blood ran it's course
They fell to his blade
The knight Iron Horse

A forgotten priest
Disappearing in the haze
A chamber of vestal virgins
Twilight is her slave

The Wizard of Oz moved the pawns
Life for satan - dust to dust
Princess of the Dawn

On the day of the testament
The seventh moon was raging fire
Heaven cried for the sacrifice
The midnight sun was rising higher

The Beauty and the Beast
Lies in her royal crypt
Her kiss is bitter sweet
Death upon her lips

The Holy Grail held the pawns
Kings and bishops bow to grace
Princess of the Dawn

The guardians of God play the pawns
Beg for mercy - hail the queen
Princess of the Dawn

A new day dawns for heaven and earth
A first sunbeam is killing the night
Once upon a time for ever more
The gloom with the spirit of that Lady in White

Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn

07. Guitar solo Wolf

Music & lyrics by Accept
<i>Instrumental</i>

08. Restless And Wild

Music & lyrics by Accept
They're running wild
They're on a down hill ride
Like a rebel they look for more
Too young to die

Now you know your dreams are useless
And there 're lies You'll never tell

'cause you're so
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild

Star born lovers
Angels in the night on a highway
They don't look back
Everybody's lost the way - yeah

The little girl wants to be an actress
Young boys are easy riders

They live so
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild

Stay down - time will roll on
How do you feel when the night is gone
Stay down - time will come 'round
You are the man made for highway life
For the highway life

City lights moving on
No tomorrows - no destinations
Like a wheel turning on and on
You're a man born to run

Every world that you have seen was senseless
Keep moving on there's no other way

Cause you're so

Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild

09. Son Of A Bitch

Music & lyrics by Accept
You make the stars
Illusions and dreams
You're what you are
D'you know what I mean

I hear you clear
See in your eyes
Lying to please
It pleases to lie

You say it's your way
You say we'll make it right to the top
Your bullshit gets me
What have you got

I don't believe
A word you say
You make me laugh
Get outta my way

You say it's your way
Now listen to what I think of you:

Son of a bitch Kiss my ass
Son of a bitch Son of a bitch You asshole Son of a bitch
Cock suckin' motherfucker I was right - take this

Son of a bitch Kiss my ass
Son of a bitch, ...

Son of a bitch you asshole
Son of a bitch, ...

Cut you three times below the ass to short to shit
Two timing son of a dog

10. London Leatherboys

Music & lyrics by Accept
Walking down the main street
I see a city's face
Boys dressed in leather
Girls dressed in lace
See the easy riders
They're roaring down their way
They need to give full speed ahead

They've been bunched together
To keep their crazy life
They turn on the power
Get wrecked every night
Got some kind of feeling
Looking in his eyes
I feel the power surge to a head

London leatherboys
Nightmare's pleasure, what you've done
London leatherboys
All together
All together - nightmare's pleasure

After all the roaring
The sound of silence scares
Girl of the leader
Cried in his arms
Don't you see the danger
When we are running wild
Please, stop the games, it's getting late

London leatherboys
Nightmare's pleasure, what you've done
London leatherboys
All together

Swearing that he would do - he could not even say
Boy dressed in leather - boy died in pain
They're the easy riders - but heroes die too fast
He was more than the best of the bunch

Best together
Lousy leather
Say what's better
All together

London leatherboys

11. Love Child

Music & lyrics by Accept
Everyone is telling that he was born as a love child
By looking in his eyes something turned me lose in this hot night

Feeling the power of lust when the guy's passing by
Wrecking one's brain and I'm going insane don't know why

I can feel your sex winding up a girl in the red dress
And my brain is gone, what is going on, I'm burning inside

Feeling the power of lust when the guy's passing by
Wrecking one's brain and I'm going insane don't know why

A love child, running wild
A love child
A love child, running wild
A love child - love child

I gotta tell myself that he was born as a love child
And the story of his way should not make me stay in this hot night

Feeling the power of lust when the guy's passing by
Wrecking one's brain and I'm going insane don't know why

A love child, running wild
A love child
A love child, running wild
A love child - love child

Don't know what I am
A woman or a man
Many troubles behind me
I'm doing all I can
But I'm what I am
Leave me alone - don't mistreat me

Feeling the power of lust when the guy's passing by
Wrecking one's brain and I'm going insane don't know why
A love child, running wild

12. Flash Rockin' Man

Music & lyrics by Accept
They all know your name
They know you're a star
You've been around for ever
And you know who you are

They buy all your records
They come to the gigs
They wanna see you rock'n'roll

Your life is full of action
Your life is full of sound
A Rock'n'Roll magic man
Stamp your feet big man in town

You know you're an idol
The leader of the gang
A juvenile's hero

Turn on the lights
There's no end in sight

Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man

They wanna feel your volume
They wanna live your life
They wanna be like you
Every day and every night

You're walking down the alleys
You're a famous man
Immortal so damn holy

Turn on the lights
Show us tonight - yes tonight

Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man

You've been behind the scenes
And the fools laughed so loud
You are a well known man
But alone I n the crowd

Tormented and mistreated
Deal everyday
A servant of the yes-men
If the people knew what would they say

You know what it's like
So turn off the lights

Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man

13. Dogs On Leads

Music & lyrics by Accept
He stares at her, his teeth are bare
Blood gets hot, he wants it now,
He wants it rare, but something's there
That holds him back from the attack

Before the kill he feels the thrill
Something is there, that cools him off
And it seems some kind of tough
What a force on leads

They wait for you, they're getting big
But they can hide, their lust is huge
Some are nice, and some are false
And all they want is that you believe

That they are just like you and me
They're talking sweet, they're acting calm
They are so smooth, they're so nice
But if they could they would bite

Dogs on leads - dogs on leads
Dogs on leads - dogs on leads
Oh, it's so mean

No one knows that they're outrageous
As long as they are treated gracious
Once cut off they're getting wild
But someone's there, who leads the lead

And they can walk in a line
And they dance on a rein
Something's there that cools them off
But it seems some kind, some kind of tough

They're all
Dogs on leads - dogs on leads
Dogs on leads - dogs on leads
Dogs on leads

And the sweetest of the sweetest
Is a hunter held on leads
They're the nicest - they're the calmest
No one knows it - who's the beast

Don't you turn 'rough, it's too dangerous
So you better catch the lead
If they're hungry, they might hurry
And you better feed the need

Dogs on leads - dogs on leads
Dogs on leads - dogs on leads

Oh yeah!

Dogs on leads - dogs on leads
Dogs on leads

Dogs - dogs on leads

14. Fast As A Shark

Music & lyrics by Accept
Fog in the streets
A church clock beats
Midnight - darkness all around

You better beware
You better take care
Be prepared for the shock

The time has come
And he's the one
Who's breathing down your neck

Coming from behind
Now it's your time
A loser will die

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's on the attack

Surprise attack
Coming from the back
An expert of the deadly knack

Just take care
Just beware
Be prepared for the fight

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's on the attack

Watch out - watch out

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's on the attack

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's
'cause the killer's
'cause the killer's on the attack

15. Balls to the Wall

Music & lyrics by Accept
Too many slaves in this world die by torture and pain
Too many people do not see
They're killing themselves, going insane
Too many people do not know bondage is over the human race
They believe slaves always lose, and this fear keeps them down

Watch the damned (god bless ya)
They're gonna break their chains (hey)
You can't stop them (god bless ya)
They're coming to get you
And then you'll get your balls to the wall

You may screw their brains
You may sacrifice them too
You may mortify their flesh
You may rape them all
One day the tortured stand up and revolt against the evil
They make you drink your blood and tear yourself to peaces

Watch the damned (god bless ya)
They're gonna break their chains (hey)
You can't stop them (god bless ya)
They're coming to get you
And then you'll get your balls to the wall

Come on man, let's stand up all over the world
Let's plug a bomb in everyone's arse
If they don't keep us alive, we're gonna fight for the right
Build a wall with the bodies of the dead and your saved
Make the world scared
Come on, show me the sign of victory
