1. War Pigs

Generals gathered in their masses
just like witches at black masses.
Evil minds that plot destruction,
sorcerers of death’s construction.

In the fields the bodies burning
as the war machine keeps turning.
Death and hatred to mankind
poisoning their brainwashed minds.

Oh lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away,
they only started the war.
Why should they go out to fight,
they leave that role to the poor.

Time will tell on their power minds
and making war just for fun.
Treating people just like pawns in chess,
wait ’till their judgment day comes.

Now in darkness world stops turning,
ashes where the bodies burning.
No more war pigs of the power,
hand of God has struck the hour.

Day of judgment, God is calling,
on their knees the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins,
Satan’s laughing, spreads his wings.

Oh lord yeah!

2. Paranoid

Finished with my woman ’cause
she couldn’t help me with my mind.
People think I’m insane because
I am frowning all the time.

All day long I think of things
but nothing seems to satisfy.
Think I’ll lose my mind if I don’t
find something to pacify.

Can you help me occupy my brain?

I need someone to show me
the things in life that I can’t find.
I can’t see the things that make
true happiness, I must be blind.

Make a joke and I will sigh,
you will laugh and I will cry.
Happiness I cannot feel and
love to me is so unreal.

And so as you hear these words,
telling you now of my state.
I tell you to enjoy life and I wish
I could but it’s too late.

3. Planet Caravan

We sail through endless skies
Stars shine like eyes
The black night sighs
The moon in silver trees
Falls down in tears
Light of the night
The earth, a purple blaze
Of sapphire haze
In orbit always

While down below the trees
Bathed in cool breeze
Silver starlight breaks down the night
And so we pass on by the crimson eye
Of great god Mars
As we travel the universe

4. Iron Man

Has he lost his mind?
Can he see or is he blind?
Can he walk at all,
Or if he moves will he fall?
Is he alive or dead?
Has he thoughts within his head?
We’ll just pass him there
Why should we even care?

He was turned to steel
In the great magnetic field
When he traveled time
For the future of mankind

Nobody wants him
He just stares at the world
Planning his vengeance
That he will soon unfold

Now the time is here
For Iron Man to spread fear
Vengeance from the grave
Kills the people he once saved

Nobody wants him
They just turn their heads
Nobody helps him
Now he has his revenge

Heavy boots of lead
Fills his victims full of dread
Running as fast as they can
Iron Man lives again!

5. Electric Funeral

Reflex in the sky warn you you’re gonna die
Storm coming, you’d better hide from the atomic tide
Flashes in the sky turns houses into sties
Turns people into clay, radiation minds decay

Robot minds of robot slaves lead them to atomic rage
plastic flowers, melting sun, fading moon falls upon
Dying world of radiation, victims of mad frustration
Burning globe of oxy’n fire, like electric funeral pyre

Buildings crashing down to a cracking ground
Rivers turn to wood, ice melting to flood
Earth lies in death bed, clouds cry water dead
Tearing life away, here’s the burning pay

Electric Funeral
Electric Funeral
Electric Funeral
Electric Funeral

And so in the sky shines the electric eye
Supernatural king takes earth under his wing
Heaven’s golden chorus sings, Hell’s angels flap their wings
Evil souls fall to Hell, ever trapped in burning cells!

6. Hand of Doom

What you gonna do? Time’s caught up with you
Now you wait your turn, you know there’s no return
Take your written rules, you join the other fools
Turn to something new, now it’s killing you

First it was the bomb, Vietnam napalm
Disillusioning, you push the needle in
From life you escape, reality’s that way
Colors in your mind satisfy your time

Oh you, you know you must be blind
To do something like this
To take the sleep that you don’t know
You’re giving Death a kiss,
Oh, little fool now

Your mind is full of pleasure
Your body’s looking ill
To you it’s shallow leisure
So drop the acid pill, don’t stop to think now

You’re having a good time baby
But that won’t last
Your mind’s all full of things
You’re living too fast
Go out enjoy yourself
Don’t bottle it in
You need someone to help you
To stick the needle in, yeah

Now you know the scene, your skin starts turning green
Your eyes no longer seeing life’s reality
Push the needle in, face death’s sickly grin
Holes are in your skin, caused by deadly pin

Head starts spinning ’round, you fall down to the ground
Feel your body heave, Death’s hands starts to weave
It’s too late to turn, you don’t want to learn
Price of life you cry, now you’re gonna die!

7. Rat Salad

(Instrumental)

8. Fairies Wear Boots

Goin’ home late at night
Suddenly I got a fright
Yeah I looked through a window and surprise what I saw
A fairy with boots on dancin’ with a dwarf

Alright now

Fairies wear boots and now you gotta believe me
Yeah I saw, it I saw it, I tell you no lies
Yeah, fairies had boots on, you gotta believe me
I saw it, I saw it with my own two eyes

Whoa right now

So I went to the doctor to see what he could give me
He said son, son you’ve gone too far
Cause smokin’ and trippin’ is all that you do
Yeah
