1. Last Rites / Loved to Death

Last Rites
(Instrumental)

Loved to Death

Woah!

Uoh! Uoh!

Your body’s empty now as I hold you
Now you’re gone, I miss you but I told you
I remember bad times more than good
Oh, there’s no coming back even if we could

I loved you to death
I loved you to death

If I can’t have you then no one will
And since I won’t, I’ll have to kill
My only love, something I’ve never felt
Now you’ve gone to heaven and you’ll burn in hell

I loved you to death
I loved you to death

I loved you to death
I loved you to death woah

Ahaha…

Oh, and now I’m down below, what do I see?
You didn’t go to heaven, you’re down in hell with me

And now you’re coming back, baby, take me please
I really think I would if you weren’t such a sleaze
I loved you once before, you kept me on a string
I’d rather go without than take what you would bring

I loved you to death woah

2. Killing Is My Business… and Business Is Good!

I am a sniper, always hit the mark
Paid assassin, working after dark
Looking through the night, using infra-red
My target on you, aimed at your head

$10.000 up front, $10.000 when I’m through
And I know just what to do
And ya know I’ll do it too
Then I’m coming back for you, uh back for you!

I do the getting rid of, don’t tell me why
Don’t need to hear the truth, don’t need the lies
Now pay me quickly and now we’re through
It brings me great pleasure to say my next job is you

Don’t you know that killing is my business and business is good
Killing is my business… and business is good
Killing is my business… and business is good
Killing is my business… and business is good

Killing is my business… and business is good
Killing is my business… and business is good
Killing is my business… and business is good
Killing is my business… and business is good

You’d better believe it ahaha…

3. Skull Beneath the Skin

Woah-oh!

Mean and infectious, the evil prophets rise
Dance of the macabre as witches streak the sky
Decadent worship of black magic and sorcery
In the womb of the Devil’s dungeon trapped without a plea oh

See thing in agony, necrosis is the fate
Pins sticking through the skin, the venom now sedates
Locked in a pillory, nowhere to be found
Screaming for your life but no one hears a sound, help me!

Prepare the patients scalp to peel away
Metal caps for his ears, he’ll hear not what we say
Solid steel visor, riveted cross his eyes
Iron staples close his jaws, so no one hears his cries

The skull beneath the skin
The skull beneath

Now you’re drawn and quartered, your bones will make the X
Symbol stands for poison and it’s chained to your head
And as we fold your arms to make the holy cross
We cross the crucifix, religion has been lost

The skull beneath the skin
The skull beneath the skin

The skull beneath the skin

4. These Boots (Nancy Sinatra cover)

You keep saying you got something for me
Something you call love, but I call sex
You’ve been kissing when you ought-to-be-a-screwing
And now someone else can kiss your ass

These boots are made for walking
And that’s just what they’ll do
One of these days these boots
Are gonna walk all over you

You been lying and there ain’t no believing
And you keep saying, what you on about bitch
You been staying when you ought-to-be-a-leaving
Now whats right is right but you ain’t been right yet

These boots are made for walking
And that’s just what they’ll do
One of these days these boots
Are gonna walk all over you

You’ve keep dressing ways you shouldn’t be dressing
And you keep thinking that you’ll never get burned, ha!
I just found me a brand new box spring matress
What you know, bitch, you got a lot to learn

These boots are made for walking
That’s just what they’ll do
And one of these days these boots
Are gonna stomp all over you

Yeah!

Are you ready boots?
Are you ready boots?
Are you ready boots?
Start walking

And you think I’m kidding, don’t ya?

5. Rattlehead

Well, here I come

Stand up and plant your feet
Listen I’m letting off steam
Now throw your hands in the air
Let loose I don’t fuckin care

Rattlehead

A dose of metal you need
To bang your head ‘til you bleed
It’s time for snapping some neck
Slashing, thrashing to Megadeth

Rattlehead

You, your head, is pounding with pain
You shake loose parts of your brain

Winning, sinning, beginning
Feeding, the needing for bleeding
Bashing, smashing, crashing
Fying, annihilating you ahahaha…

There’s someone back in the shadows
You feel though you can’t see his eyes
He’ll bash your head if you cross him
Ain’t quite your average guy

Don’t wear no leather to fit in
Don’t wear no spike to be cool
Don’t want no woman beside him
Just make it fast, Loud and Rude

Rattle Head

I’m a Rattlehead
Rattle your Goddamn Head

6. Chosen Ones

You doubt your strength or courage
Don’t come to join with me
For death surely wants you
With sharp and pointy teeth

An animal so vicious
No others fought and won
So on the fields of battle
We are the chosen ones

Human bones blank the dirt
Of the heathens lair
That we must pass this den of death
The only path from here

But I walk in the light
The time to die has come
No-one shall take my life
I’m of the chosen ones

Black shadows fill the sky
As the creatures eyes grow near
Raise the shield of the holy pilgrims
High into the air

Heavens powers fill my arms
Onward now to fight I’m sent
Oh, the beast is coming
To put you to the test

Lookout

Now this land is mine to pillage
Rape, and steal, and take at will
Never let you cross this path
I reign for now, I stay… I stay to kill

You doubt your strength or courage
Don’t come to join with me
For death surely wants you
With sharp and pointy teeth

An animal so vicious
No others fought and won
So on the fields of battle
We are the chosen ones

7. Looking Down the Cross

Oh yeah!

Now, before they take me and my blessed life
Now, you’ll know why death was summoned here tonight
I’ll recall my perils they’ll kill me in pride
No, I can’t run away there’s no place to hide

Oh!

Though too much to live for I owe enough to die
Ask not for salvation my death shall mean their lives
Hatred and guilt the alter they’ve built high priests of sin
Destiny fate the wicked ones gate beckoning you in, oh beckoning you in

Down the walkways through the blood stained town
Looking down the cross bleeding from the crown
Led to stay to die beside the thieves
Kill the king of the world to be

And now to you this will come a purifying pestilence
More noxious then the serpent’s breath malevolently destined
More corrupt then the malice of Choronzon
More disease then the wind of the moonlight sun

Putrefaction you have caused no need for confession
Now you wish you had a god to stop your demolition
Crushing the bones of the hundred folds,swinging the judgment hammer
Man, woman, child no one is safe, the heads of the dead are the banner

And this was all you got so don these broken wings
Sands of time run out bells of hades ring
Is this a nightmare to unhallow thy name?
Smell of brimstone dancing in the flames

No help now as you fulfill his task
Chief of evil has got you by the ass
Set free to sit upon the throne
Just a dream you’re weeping all alone

Looking down the cross, speak no evil
Woah looking down the cross, speak no evil
Looking down the cross, speak no evil
Woah looking down the cross, speak no evil

Woah!

8. Mechanix

Imagine you were at my station
And you brought your motor to me
You’re a burner yeah a real motor car
Said you wanna get your order filled
Made me shiver when I put it in
Pumping just won’t do ya know luckily for you

Whoever thought you’d be better
At turning a screw than me
I do it for my life
Made my drive shaft crank
Made my pistons bulge
Made my ball bearing melt from the heat
Oh yeah yeah

We were shifting hard when we took off
Put tonight all four on the floor
When we hit top end you know it feels to slow
Said you wanna get your order filled
Made me shiver when I put it in
Pumping just won’t do ya know luckily for you

Whoever thought you’d be better
At turning a screw than me
I do it for my life
Made my drive shaft crank
Made my pistons bulge
Made my ball bearing melt from the heat
Oh yeah yeah
Oh!

I’m giving you my room service
And ya know it’s more than enough
Oh one more time ya know I’m in love

Whoever thought you’d be better
At turning a screw than me
I do it for my life
Made my drive shaft crank
Made my pistons bulge
Made my ball bearing melt from the heat
Oh yeah yeah!

Imagine you were at my station
And you brought your motor to me
With all four on the floor I feel what’s in store

Whoever thought you’d be better
At turning a screw than me
I do it for my life
Made my drive shaft crank
Made my pistons bulge
Made my ball bearing melt from the heat
Oh yeah yeah!
