A riff like a whiplash,
A beat like a smash,
A crash and a scream like a flash,
A sound like a death tone,
A note like a howl,
A fire in your soul,
Rock "n roll!
Not many years ago a tremor ran through my body,
As I heard the sound,
And my senses came alive to a thrill of ecstasy,
That felt like at last coming home,
I felt in me the tiger, eager to let it leap out,
Growl and b*** and devour,
In the fire of rock "n roll I was born.
Hot blood of molten rock, to be alive with sound,
A fist of solid rock, to pound!
It"s the song of thunder and the earth is split asunder,
By the solid ball of rock,
It"s the symphony of steel, it"s the only thing that"s real,
It"s a showdown, the ultimate shock.
Hot blood of molten rock, to be alive with sound,
A fist of solid rock, to pound,
A heart of burning rock, to pump adrenaline,
A head of diamond rock, to win!
In rock we live and play the game,
In rock "n roll we carve our names,
In rock we trust and 'til the end,
In rock we are and will remain,
In rock.
It"s the roar of doomsday, the soundtrack of Apocalypse,
The toll of Armageddon,
It"s the last melody played on the thundering harps,
Of the host of Hell,
Sharp as a shadow, the blade of the scythe of Fate,
Was wrought from heavy metal,
The stairway to Paradise was carved in rock.
Hot blood of molten rock, to be alive with sound,
A fist of solid rock, to pound,
A heart of burning rock, to pump adrenaline,
A head of diamond rock, to win!
In rock we live and play the game,
In rock "n roll we carve our names,
In rock we trust and "til the end,
In rock we are and will remain,
In rock.
A decibel rain, a sound hurricane,
Rock "n roll!
A storm in your blood, a hot metal flood,
Rock "n roll!
A sound like a death tone,
A note like a howl,
A fire in your soul,
Rock "n roll!
Sing of thunder and the earth is split asunder,
By the solid ball of rock,
Sing the symphony of steel, it"s the only thing that"s real,
It"s a showdown, the ultimate shock
