Covered in Blood
1. Shout (Tears for Fears cover)
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you
Come on
Yeah!
In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really, really ought to know
Those one-track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you
Come on
They gave you life
And in return you gave them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale
I hope we live to tell the tale
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
So come on, I'm talking to you
So come on
And when you've taken down your guard
If I could change your mind
I'd really love to break your heart
I'd really love to break your heart
Let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you
Come on
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you
Come on
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you
So come on
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
(Let it all out) I'm talking to you
Come on
So come on
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you
So come on
2. Back to Back (Pretty Maids cover)
Ride
They came at dawn
Into the morning light
Black shadows ridin' on the mist
Prepared for battle
Swords were shinin' bright
Filled with anger and harm
Came to kill not to charm
The sound of metal
Screamin' in the air
The time has come where justice rules
The endless victims
Looking up in fear
Now who were the fools
Oh here they come
Riders of the sun
And they will fight
Back to back - back to back
They're fighting hard
Their way of victory
Dead bodies lying on the ground
They're the soldiers of eternity
And their swords spinnin' around
Oh here they come
Riders of the sun
And they will fight
Back to back - back to back
They're fightin' with power, ready to ride let go
They got it all
They'll never fall
But they will fight
The night is fallin'
Light will disappear
A magic silence fills the place
Could read the warning
Shinin' crystal clear
Now they were lost for the chase
Oh here they come
Riders of the sun
And they will fight
Back to back - back to back
No - no - no - no
3. Shadow on the Wall (Mike Oldfield cover)
Treat me like a prisoner
Treat me like a fool
Treat me like a loser
Use me as a tool
Face me 'til I'm hungry
Push me in the cold
Treat me like a criminal
Just a shadow on the wall
Shadow on the wall [x4]
Like a shadow on the wall
Treat me like I'm evil
Freeze me 'til I'm cold
Beat me 'til I'm feeble
Grab me 'til I'm old
Fry me 'til I'm tired
Push me 'til I fall
Treat me like a criminal
Just a shadow on the wall
Shadow on the wall [x4]
Like a shadow on the wall
Shadow on the wall [x8]
4. Breaking the Law (Judas Priest cover)
There I was completely wasting
Out of work and down
All inside it's so frustrating
As I drift from town to town
Feel as though nobody cares
If I live or die
So I might as well begin
To put some action in my life
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
So much for the golden future
I can't even start
I've had every promise broken
And there's anger in my heart
You don't know what it's like
You don't have a clue
If you did you'd find yourselves
Doing the same thing too
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
You don't know what it's like
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
Breaking the law, breaking the law
5. Nitad (Moderat Likvidation cover)
Nitad av någon som tyckte du såg förjävlig ut
Nitad
Nitad
Nitad av någon som måste vara helt slut
Nitad
Nitad av någon som tyckte du såg förjävlig ut
Nitad
Nitad
Nitad av någon som måste vara helt slut
Nitad (Nitad)
Nitad (Nitad)
6. When the Innocent Die (Anti Cimex cover)
Was this what you wanted?
All war scientists
When the innocent die
You kill all the innocent
You kill all the pacifists
When the innocent die
You kill all the innocent
You kill all the pacifists
(When) the innocent die!
7. Warsystem (Shitlickers cover)
War system, war system, war system now!
War system, war system, war system now!
War system, war system, war system now!
8. Armed Revolution (Shitlickers cover)
No system works
Armed revolution
Fuck'em all
Fuckin' shit
No system works
Armed revolution
Fuck'em all
Fuckin' shit
No system works
Armed revolution
Fuck'em all
Fuckin' shit
9. Spräckta Snutskallar (Shitlickers cover)
Kör upp batongen i analen
Spräckta Spräckta Spräckta Snutskallar
10. The Leader (Of the Fuckin' Assholes) (Shitlickers cover)
Who tell the cunts to do what they do?
The leader of the fuckin' assholes
Who tell the cunts to do what they do?
The leader of the fuckin' assholes
Who tell the cunts to do what they do?
The leader of the fuckin' assholes
11. City Baby Attacked by Rats (Charged GBH cover)
The memory lingers on when you were the same as us
Three months old a child, still you lived off love and fuss
City baby, city baby, city baby attacked by rats
Residing in a squalid place, it can't be too much fun
Your brain is getting eaten away by the rat living in your skull
A mutant at the age of one, a human rodent cabbage
It's hard to think a tiny thing can do that much damage
12. Warning (Discharge cover)
They stand on the outside looking in
They stand on the outside looking in
They stand on the outside and feed you shit
They stand on the outside and feed you shit
They keep you in the dark
Poison poison poison your mind
There is no truth in what they say
There is no truth in what they say
Propaganda and lies
Propaganda and lies
13. The Zoo (Scorpions cover)
The job is done and I go out
Another boring day
I leave it all behind me now
So many worlds away
I meet my girl, she's dressed to kill
And all we gonna do
Is walk around to catch the thrill
On streets we call the zoo
We eat the night, we drink the time
Make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by
On streets we call the zoo
We eat the night, we drink the time
Make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by
On streets we call the zoo
Enjoy the zoo
And walk down 42nd Street
You want to be excited too
And you will feel the heat
We eat the night, we drink the time
Make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by
On streets we call the zoo
We eat the night, we drink the time
Make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by
On streets we call the zoo
14. Wings of Tomorrow (Europe cover)
You must be dreamin'
Or going out of your mind
There's no way of changin'
The world over one night
Baby you need to recover
From all the things you've been through
Baby you need to discover
There ain't much to do but
Ride, ride, ride
The wings of tomorrow
Ride, ride, ride
To change the world
You feel sorry for the nations of 1984
And it cuts you like a razor
Cause you've seen it all before
You've seen one war after another
So many lives on the line
You must take care of one another
Or reach the end of time
Ride, ride, ride
The wings of tomorrow
Ride, ride, ride
To change the world
15. The Oath (KISS cover)
Like a blade of a sword I am forged in flame
Fiery hot
Tempered steel fire-bright to the night I take
I fear not
Now compelled by something I cannot see
I go forth surrendering to history
Your glory, I swear I ride for thee
Your power, I trust it rides with me
Your servant, I am and ever shall I be
Through a dream
I have a come to an ancient door
Lost in the mist
I have been there a hundred times or more
Pounding my fists
Now inside, the fire of the ancient burns
A boy goes in and suddenly a man returns
I gave my word and gained a key
I gave my heart and set it free
There's no turning back from this odyssey
Because I feel so alive suddenly
And I wonder, is this really me?
16. The Book of Heavy Metal (Dream Evil cover)
I'd sign - a contract with the devil
I've tried - for so very long
I'd die - to become immortal
that's why I sing this song
Am I a wannabe? - have I no dignity.
Who'd give up all my life.. to be
In the book of heavy metal.. metal!
In the book of heavy metal
In life - I have no religion
besides the heavy metal gods
wear nothing but black skin tight leather
My skin's clad with Metal studs
Am I a wannabe? - have I no dignity.
I give up all my life to be..
In the book of heavy metal.. metal!
In the book of heavy metal
Some twenty years ago, the gods put down there feet,
So firmly in to the ground that no man of sword nor pen,
could ever change the rules upon which
The very fundament of metal was made.
Read all about it, in the book of heavy metal
Read all about it, in the manual
Read all about it, in the book of heavy metal
Read all about it
Don't need no flashy house, no kids/car or ugly wife
the only thing I want, is what my parents don't
need no widescreen TV, No in all honesty
the only thing I want to be (to be or not to be)
In the book of heavy metal - In life - metal!
In the book of heavy metal - to death - metal!
I've signed - a contract with the devil
I'd like to become a star
I'd die - to become immortal
That's why I play the guitar
17. Walk in the Shadows (Queensrÿche cover)
What? You say you're through with me
I'm not through with you
We've had what others might call love
You say it's over now
What's done, what's through?
You can't stay away, you need me
I need you
When the fire starts the pain's too much
For your mind
You need attention, what's good is only mine
I can cure the hunger that burns in your heart
Just come to me
I'll take you home
We'll walk in the shadows
By day we'll live in a dream
We'll walk in the shadows
You say you don't feel safe alone tonight
Cause you feel the pressure building in your head
Our secret's safe for one more night
But when the morning comes remember
I'll be with you
We'll walk in the shadows
By day we'll live in a dream
We'll walk in the shadows
One day you'll be with me
If only you believe...
18. Incarnated Solvent Abuse (Carcass cover)
Intenacious, intersecting
Reaving fats from corporal griskin
Culled... for sodden gelatine brayed
Skeletal groats triturated, desinently
Exsiccated, sere glutenate brewed
For frivolous solvent abuse
Derogate coarse remains
For glue to dry
Despoiled marrow razed
A truculent shambles so severe
Extravated bone—as adhesive incarnate
A pellucid quietus—nocuosly I create
Corporal glue, breathe in the fumes
Mucilage vapours, toxic fumes to savour
Comminuted remains
As gum to dry
A lissom gel so glazed
A truculent shambolic affair
The exsanguine esprit—snorted as snuff
Rheumic oils forever—Bonded together as gum
Human glue, choke on the fumes
Noxious vapours, slaughterous labour
19. Kill with Power (Manowar cover)
Hear what's written on the wind.
We come to kill and kill again.
Our arrows fall like hail
Trample on the dead-Ride through the
Gate of clouds-stand on the open step
Run berserk-spreading fear and pain
Black shield and weapons, black our chain.
None can harm us-not their fire-
Iron or steel-for we have the
Will to power-with power we will
Kill
Kill with power-die die
Kill with power-die die
To the war god Odin you will pray
And the curse of weapons shell
Remain.On the blood of all our
Fathers-on their weapons we now
Swear to evenge-not lament.
Give the False ones death.
Kill with power-die die
Kill with power-die die
20. Symphony of Destruction (Megadeth cover)
You take a mortal man
And put him in control
Watch him become a god
Watch people's heads a-roll
A-roll
Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the Symphony of Destruction
Acting like a robot
Its metal brain corrodes
You try to take its pulse
Before the head explodes
Explodes...
Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the Symphony of Destruction
The earth starts to rumble
World powers fall
A-warring for the heavens
A peaceful man stands tall
Tall...
Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the Symphony of Destruction
21. Aces High (Iron Maiden cover)
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
There comes the sound of the guns sending flak
Out for the scramble, we've got to get airborne
Got to get up for the coming attack
Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines
Remove all the wheel blocks
There's no time to waste
Gathering speed as we head down the runway
Got to get airborne before it's too late
[Chorus 1]
Running, scrambling, flying
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Running, scrambling, flying
Rolling, turning, diving
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Won't you run, live to fly, fly to live, aces high
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers
Let off a sharp burst and then turn away
Roll over, spin round and come in behind them
Move to their blindsides and firing again
Bandits at 8 o'clock move in behind us
Ten ME-109s out of the sun
Ascending and turning our Spitfires to face them
Heading straight for them I press down my guns
[Chorus 2]
Rolling, turning, diving
Rolling, turning, diving, doing it again
Rolling, turning, diving
Rolling, turning, diving
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Won't you run, live to fly, fly to live, aces high
22. Scream of Anger (Europe cover)
I won't live to see tomorrow
There won't be another breath
None of them will ever sorrow
Those who sentenced me to death
I've been waiting here for ages
For the hangman to appear
Soon the priest will read some pages
From the Bible for my fear
I see a place an evil place
Comin' my way
What can I do where can I run
I'm gonna die anyway
Things are getting clearer
This is the price I have to pay
I feel like screaming out my anger
There is so much left here to do
When it happened I was younger
And my destiny was you
I see a place an evil place...
What can I do
About leaving you
We were only halfway through
What can I say
There was no other way
They wouldn't let me stay
23. Starbreaker (Judas Priest cover)
Look out, here's Starbreaker
Cruisin' into town
Set his mind to stealin'
Every little heart around
Step out on the sidewalks
If you're feeling game
He comes but once a lifetime
Never seen again
Starbreaker
Glides in from the sky
Starbreaker
Takes you up so high
Paradise is waiting
For the chosen few
Let's hope maybe this time
He picks me and you
Star voyage to a new world
Light-year miles away
Cross your fingers, here he is
Take us now this day
Starbreaker
Glides in from the sky
Starbreaker
Takes you up so high
Starbreaker, take my hand
Starbreaker, understand
Starbreaker, you're the one
Starbreaker, lead us on, and on
Look out, here's Starbreaker
Cruisin' into town
Set his mind to stealin'
Every little heart around
Step out on the sidewalks
If you're feeling game
He comes but once a lifetime
Never ever seen again
Starbreaker
Glides in from the sky
Starbreaker
Takes you up so high
