Album Lyrics
1. The Hellion
(Instrumental)
2. Electric Eye
Up here in space
I’m looking down on you
My lasers trace
Everything you do
You think you’ve private lives
Think nothing of the kind
There is no true escape
I’m watching all the time
I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
I’m elected electric spy
I’m protected electric eye
Always in focus
You can’t feel my stare
I zoom into you
You don’t know I’m there
I take a pride in probing all your secret moves
My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove
I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
I’m elected electric spy
I’m protected electric eye
Electric eye, in the sky
Feel my stare, always there
There’s nothing you can do about it
Develop and expose
I feed upon your every thought
And so my power grows
I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean
I’m elected electric spy
I’m protected electric eye
I’m elected electric spy
I’m elected protective, detective, Electric Eye
3. Riding on the Wind
Shooting for the stars
Cruise the speed of light
Glowin god of Mars
Body burning bright
Well I’m ridin’, ridin’ on the wind
Yes I’m ridin’, ridin’ on the wind
Tearing up through life
Million miles an hour
Blinding all in sight
Surging rush of power
Well I’m ridin’, ridin’ on the wind
Yes I’m ridin’, ridin’ on the wind
Ridin’ on the wind! Ridin’ on the wind!
Ridin’ on the wind! RIDING ON THE WIND!
Thunderbolt from hell
Shattering aloud
Screamin’ demons yell
Bursting through the clouds
Well I’m ridin’, ridin’ on the wind
Yes I’m ridin’, ridin’ on the wind
4. Bloodstone
I’ve been trying
There’s no denying
It’s sending me
Out of my mind
I’ve seen reason
Change to treason
It’s losing it’s sense
Of all kind
How much longer will it take
For the world to see
We should learn to live
And simply let it be
Bloodstone, bloodstone
In the night time
Wake in fright
I’m so scared of the game
That’s being played
Start to wonder
What’s going under
And how many deals
Have been made
How much longer will it take
For the world to see
We should learn to live
And simply let it be
Bloodstone, bloodstone
Bloodstone
I can’t take it
You got me living
On a bloodstone
I don’t want that that bloodstone
5. (Take These) Chains
I move away — it don’t do me no good
Three thousand miles don’t help like I thought it would
Help me, beggin’ you, please.
You got the power; down on my knees
Give me some kind of life,
Leave me be
Take these chains off!
Take ’em off of my heart!
Reach out to me, as if from the grave,
I tried to run but I’m tied to you like a slave.
It’s my fault loving you so
You were so precious, how could I know
You turned mean overnight
Poor poor me
Take these chains off!
Take ’em off of my heart!
I don’t owe you anything
Why don’t you get out of my life
Through it all the memories cling
And I can’t sleep at night
Help me I’m beggin’ you please
You’ve got the power, down on my knees
Give me some kind of life,
Leave me be
Take these chains off!
Take ’em off of my heart!
6. Pain and Pleasure
I wanna tell ya, hey, I think you oughta know
The way you’re treating me, now, I feel I have ta go
I’ve heard the rumors, and it seems they’re comin’ true
You do what suits ya, but then that’s nothin’ new
Do what you wanna do
Oh what you put me through
How I suffer for your love
Say what you wanna say
You know that you’re gonna pay
For all the times I’ve cried
You give me pain, but you bring me pleasure
Get out of my life
You bring me pain, but you give me pleasure
Don’t know what I like
You’ve got me tied up, dog upon a leash
Instead of messin’ round, practice what you preach
Your days are numbered, my day’s arrived
The way I see it, we’re dead or we’re alive
You give me pain, but you bring me pleasure
Get out of my life
You bring me pain, but you give me pleasure
Don’t know what I like

7. Screaming for Vengeance
Hey listen don’t you let ’em get your mind
Fill your brain with orders, and that’s not right
They’re playing at a game that draws you closer
Till you’re living in a world that’s ruled by fear
Always takin’ baby out that’s OK
What they’re givin’ maybe it’s out of phase with me
Told you once you’re never gonna win the race
Same old no tomorrow — kicked in the face!
We are screaming for vengeance
The world is a manacled place!
Screaming, screaming for vengeance
The world is defiled in disgrace!
Tie a blindfold all around your head
Spin you round in the torture before the dread
And then you’re pushed and shoved into every corner
Then they lead you out into the final slaughter.
As the sweat is running down your neck
All your praying for’s to stop you body breakin’ up
Oh your heart is pumping, gonna soon explode
Got to fight the horror of this mental load.
We are screaming for vengeance
The world is a manacled place!
Screaming, screaming for vengeance
The world is defiled in disgrace!
So you wait it out and bide your time
Rip off that straight jacket gotta break that line
Everyone who wins in the great escape
Leaves a thousand more who suffer in their wake
I don’t talk about it but that’s alright
Table’s turned now there’s a revenge in sight
If it takes forever babe I tell ya I can wait
Send them screaming back through their hell’s own gate
We are screaming for vengeance
The world is a manacled place
Screaming, screaming for vengeance
The world is defiled in disgrace
8. You’ve Got Another Thing Comin’
One life I’m gonna live it up
I’m takin’ flight I said I’ll never get enough
Stand tall I’m young and kinda proud
I’m on top as long as the music’s loud
If you think I’ll sit around as the world goes by
You’re thinkin’ like a fool cause it’s a case of do or die
Out there is a fortune waitin’ to be had
You think I’ll let it go you’re mad
You’ve got another thing comin’
That’s right here’s where the talkin’ ends
Well listen this night there’ll be some action spent
Drive hard I’m callin’ all the shots
I got an ace card comin’ down on the rocks
If you think I’ll sit around while you chip away my brain
Listen I ain’t foolin’ and you’d better think again
Out there is a fortune waitin’ to be had
You think I’ll let it go you’re mad
You’ve got another thing comin
In this world we’re livin’ in we have our share of sorrow
Answer now is don’t give in aim for a new tomorrow
Oh so hot no time to take a rest yeah
Act tough ain’t room for second best
Real strong got me some security
Hey I’m a big smash I’m goin’ for infinity yeah
If you think I’ll sit around as the world goes by
You’re thinkin’ like a fool cause it’s a case of do or die
Out there is a fortune waitin’ to be had
You think I’ll let it go you’re mad
You’ve got another thing comin’
9. Fever
I’d spend my days alone
I used to stay at home
Lost in seclusion there
Like I was in a cell
A captured heart as well
Surrounded by despair
Darkness filled my soul
Losing all control
Down on the streets below
Bright city lights would glow
The energy would rise
And through the heat I’d gaze
Still counting empty days
With fire in my eyes
Living through this hell
Can I break this spell
Fever. You set my soul on fire
Fever. You fill me with desire
Fever. You always get it right
Fever. All day and all night
Then one night as I walked
I heard your body talk
I saw a shooting star
In some magnetic trance
Our beating hearts would dance
And crash down from afar
Oh how strange fate is
Never dreamed of this
Fever. You set my soul on fire
Fever. You fill me with desire
Fever. You always get it right
Fever. All day and all night
So destiny has bought us oh so close together
We were like angels in the night
Living the dream at last I’ll be with you forever
And all at once it feels so right
Fever. You set my soul on fire
Fever. You fill me with desire
Fever. You always get it right
Fever. All day and all night
10. Devil’s Child
Hypnotize me, mesmerize me
Feel my will-power slip
Light my fire with cold desire
Losing all my grip
Eat my diamonds (eat my diamonds)
Drinking all my gin
Feast your eyes on (feast your eyes on)
A whole lotta sin
Oh no you’re so damn wicked!
You got me by the throat.
Oh no gotcha claws stuck in me
You never let me go
I believe you’re the devil
I believe you’re the devil’s child
Took my dreams and now it’s seems you’re
Nothing but a liar
Smash and grab at all I had
Build my funeral pyre
Stop pretending (stop pretending)
Got me growin’ old.
Your tormenting (your tormenting)
Fit to snap my soul
Oh no you’re so damn wicked!
You got me by the throat
Oh no gotcha claws stuck in me
You never let me go
I believe you’re the devil
I believe you’re the devil’s child
You took my heart
And left it blown to smithereens
I gave my body as a slave
You cut my flesh
And drank my blood that poured in streams
I’m left here broken and ashamed
Goin’ under, hear the thunder
Death defying grace
Your condition breeds ammunition
Shoots me in the face
Vicious talkin’ (vicious talkin’)
Stabs me like a knife
Scratched and bruised (so abused)
I’m a human sacrifice
Oh no you’re so damn wicked!
You got me by the throat
Oh no gotcha claws stuck in me
You never let me go
I believe you’re the devil
I believe you’re the devil’s child
