[Originally recorded by Discharge]

Free speech, free speech for the dumb
Free speech, free speech for the dumb
Free speech, free speech for the dumb

2. It's Electric

[Originally recorded by Diamond Head]

I'm gonna be a rock and roll star
Gotta groove from night to day
Gotta blow my honey jar
Gonna blow my blues away
I'm gonna make a stand
Gonna make a million
Gonna make it with you
I'm gonna be wild my friend
I gotta push it through

It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric

I stop on red and I leave on amber
Danger paves my way
I'm gonna make it my friend
Gonna make it today
Gonna get this dust from my heels
Down the highway I go
Gonna get the stars from my pride
Make it in a rock and roll show

It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric

I stop on red and I leave on amber
Danger paves my way
I'm gonna make it my friend
Gonna make it today
Gonna get the dust from my heels
Down the highway I go
Gonna get the stars from my pride
Make it in a rock and roll show

It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric
It's electric


3. Sabbra Cadabra

[Originally recorded by Black Sabbath]
[Featuring "A National Acrobat"]

Feel so good I feel so fine
Love that little lady always on my mind
She gives me lovin' every night and day
Never gonna leave her, never goin' away

Someone to love me
You know she makes me feel alright
Someone to need me
Love me every single night

Feel so happy since I met that girl
When we're making love it's something out of this world
Feels so good to know that she's all mine
Going to love that woman 'til the end of time

Someone to live for
Love me 'til the end of time
She makes me feel happy
It's good to know that she's all mine

I am the world that hides
The universal secret of all time
Destruction of the empty spaces
Is my one and only crime
I've lived a thousand times
I found out what it means to be believed
The thoughts and images
The unborn child that never was conceived
Ya gotta believe me

Hey, I'm talking to you
Well I know its hard for you
To know the reason why
And I know you'll understand
More when it's time to die
Don't believe the life you have
Will be the only one
You have to let your body sleep
To let your soul live on

Feel so happy since I met that girl
When we're making love it's something out of this world
Feels so good to know that she's all mine
Going to love that woman 'til the end of time

Someone to live for
Love me 'til the end of time
She makes me feel happy
It's good to know that she's all mine


4. Turn The Page

[Originally recorded by Bob Seger]

On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine moanin' out his one note song
You think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hours and there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin', you just wish the trip was through

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the Page

SO you walk into this restaurant, all strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode
Most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can
All the same old cliches, is it woman, is it man?
And you always seem outnumbered, you don't dare make a stand

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the Page

Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy you try and give away
As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play
Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes of the amplifiers ringin' in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette, rememberin' what she said

Yeah, here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the Page

There I go
Turn that page

There I go
There I go
There I go
There I go
There I go
There I go
I'm gone


5. Die Die My Darling

[Originally recorded by The Misfits]

Die, die, die my darling
Don't utter a single word
Die, die, die my darling
Just shut your pretty eyes

I'll be seeing you again
I'll be seeing you in hell

So don't cry to me oh baby
Your future's in an oblong box
Don't cry to me oh baby
You should have seen it a-coming on
Don't cry to me oh baby
Had to know it was in your cards
Don't cry to me oh baby
Dead-end zone for a dead-end girl
Don't cry to me oh baby
Now your life drains on the floor
Don't cry to me oh baby

Die, die, die my darling
Don't utter a single word
Die, die, die my darling
Just shut your pretty mouth

I'll be seeing you again
I'll be seeing you in hell

So don't cry to me oh baby
Your future's in an oblong box
Don't cry to me oh baby
You should have seen it a-coming on
Don't cry to me oh baby
Had to know it was in your cards
Don't cry to me oh baby
Dead-end zone for a dead-end girl
Don't cry to me oh baby
Now your life drains on the floor
Don't cry to me oh baby

Die, die, die my darling
Don't utter a single word
Die, die, die my darling
Just shut your pretty mouth

I'll be seeing you again
I'll be seeing you in hell

Die, die, die
Die, die, die
Die, die, die


6. Loverman

[Originally recorded by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds]

There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer?
There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer?
And he's bucking and braying and pawing at the floor
How much longer?
And he's howling with pain and crawling up the walls
How much longer?
There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer?
And he's weak with evil and broken by the world
How much longer?
And he's shouting your name and he's asking for more
How much longer?
There's a devil waiting outside your door
How much longer?

How much longer?
Ooh there's a devil crawling along your floor
How much longer?
And he's old and he's stupid

7. Mercyful Fate Medley

[Originally recorded by Mercyful Fate]

[Featuring: "Evil," "Curse of the Pharaohs," "Satan's Fall,"]
["A Corpse Without Soul," and "Into the Coven."]

They're walking by the night
The moon has frozen blue
Long black coats a shelter for the rain
Their load must get through

Now bats are leaving their trees
They're joining the call
Seven satanic Hell preachers
Heading for the hall

Brining the blood of a newborn child
Got to succeed, if not it's Satan's fall

Way out in Egypt in the valley of kings
Where the mummified pharaohs
Pretend dead in their sleep

Don't touch, never ever steal
Unless you're in for the kill
Or you've been hit by the curse of the pharaohs
Yes you've been hit and the curse is on you

The curse of the pharaohs can be so deadly
Just destroying your future
Makin' it all shady

Don't touch, never ever steal
Unless you're in for the kill
Or you'll be hit by the curse of the pharaohs
Yes you'll be hit and the curse is on you

Listen
I'm a corpse
I'm a corpse
I'm a corpse without soul
Satan
He's taken
He's taken
He's taken his toll
He took it on me
I
I'm trapped
I'm trapped
I'm trapped in his spell
Tonight
I'm going
I'm going
I'm going to Hell inside his spell

Howl like a wolf
And a witch will open the door
Follow me and meet our high priestess

Yeah, come, come into my coven
Yeah, and become Lucifer's child

Undress until you're naked
And put on this white coat
Take this white cross and go
To the center of the ring

Yeah, come, come into my coven
Yeah, and become Lucifer's child

I was born on the cemetery
Under the sign of the moon
Raised from my grave by the dead
And, I was made a mercenary
In the legions of Hell
Now I'm king of pain, I'm insane

You know my only pleasure
Is to hear you cry
I'd love to hear you cry
I'd love to see you die
And I'll be the first
To watch your funeral
And I'll be the last to leave
I'd love to hear you cry

And when you're down
Beyond the ground
I'll dig up your body again
And make love to shame
Oh lady cry, and say goodbye
Oh lady cry, and say goodbye

Yeah, you've gotta say goodbye
Yeah, 'cause I will eat your mind


8. Astronomy

[Originally recorded by Blue Oyster Cult]

Clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
Out at you from their hiding place
Like acid and oil on a madman's face
His reasons tend to fly away

Like lesser birds on the four winds
Like silver scrapes in May
Now the sands become a crust
And most of you have gone away

Come Susy dear, let's take a walk
Just out there upon the beach
I know you'll soon be married
And you'll want to know where the winds come from

Well it's never said at all
On the map that Carrie reads
Behind the clock back there you know
At the four winds bar

Yeah, hey, hey, hey, hey
Four winds at the four winds bar
Two doors locked and windows barred
One door let to take you in
The other one just mirrors it
Hey, hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey

Ooh, in hellish glare and inference
The other one's a duplicate
The queenly flux, eternal light
Or the light that never warms
Yes, the light, that never, never warms
Yes, the light, that never, never warms
Never warms
Never warms

The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst
Out at you from their hiding place
Miss Carrie nurse and Suzy dear
Would find themselves at four winds bar

It's the nexus of the crisis
And the origin of storms
Just the place to hopelessly
Encounter time and then came me
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Call me Desdenova, eternal light
These gravely digs of mine
Will surely prove a sight
Hey, and don't forget my dog, fixed and consequent

Astronomy...a star
Astronomy...a star
Astronomy...a star
Astronomy...a star
Astronomy...a star


9. Whiskey In The Jar

[Originally recorded by Thin Lizzy]

As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'
I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier
I said stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya

I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
I took all of his money and I brought it home to Molly
She swore that she'd love me, never would she leave me
But the devil take that woman for you know she tricked me easy

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber
Takin' Molly with me, but I never knew the danger
For about six or maybe seven, yeah in walked Captain Farrell
I jumped up, fired my pistols and I shot him with both barrels

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o
Yeah, whiskey
Yo, whiskey

Now some men like the fishin' and some men like the fowlin'
And some men like to hear, to hear the cannon ball a roarin'
Me I like sleepin' specially in my Molly's chamber
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain yeah

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

Whiskey in the jar-o
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da


10. Tuesday's Gone

[Originally recorded by Lynyrd Skynyrd]

Train roll on, on down the line
Won't you please take me far, far away?
Now I feel the wind blow outside my door
I'm leaving my woman at home
My baby's gone
Tuesday's gone with the wind
My baby's gone, gone with the wind
Long gone

And I don't know where I'm going
I just want to be left alone
When this train ends I'll try again
I'm leaving my woman at home
My baby's gone

Tuesday's gone with the wind
Tuesday's gone, gone with the wind
Tuesday's gone, gone with the wind
My baby's gone with the wind
Train roll on

Tuesday's gone with the wind
Tuesday's gone, gone with the wind
Tuesday's gone, gone with the wind
My baby's gone with the wind
Train roll on

Train roll on many miles from my home
See, I'm, I'm riding my blues babe, blues away
Well, Tuesday, you see, she had to be free
But somehow I've got you to carry on

[repeat "Train roll on" and "Tuesday's gone" etc., in various combinations until the end]


11. The More I See

[Originally recorded by Discharge]

From where I stand I see
Pain suffering and misery

The more I see the more I see
The less the less I believe

From where I stand I see
Hate violence and war

The more I see the more I see
The less the less I believe

The more I see the more I see
The less the less I believe
I believe

From where I stand I see
Pain suffering and misery

The more I see the more I see
The less the less I believe

The more I see
The more I see
The more I see
The more I see
The more I see
The less, the less I believe
