ADDICTION
---------
Her body's lost control
The pills she takes spring thru fall
High fashion career
Newspaper deadlines and alcohol
The bills for valium 
Increase with every buying chance

Withdrawal symptoms take their toll
On a young woman with a goal
To live her life devoid of pain
But the addiction for a prescription
Can't be controlled without a system
To regulate her doctor's position

No foreign substance
Need be taken at all
Spontaneous remission 
Will cure the girl's condition
And all life's worries
Won't matter no more

Withdrawal symptoms take their toll
On a young woman with a goal
To live her life devoid of pain
But the addiction for a prescription
Can't be controlled without a system
To regulate her doctor's position

Go
Oh, oh

Withdrawal symptoms take their toll
On a young woman with a goal
To live her life devoid of pain
But the addiction for a prescription
Can't be controlled without a system
To regulate her doctor's position

I said this is addiction
This is addiction


BARBARIAN HUNT
--------------
Spears fly overhead
Madman on the run
Taste for human
A treat for everyone!!

Barbarian hunt
Barbarian hunt
Barbarian hunt
Barbarian

Run into the forest
Obey nature's laws
Don't fall prey to
The beast's massive jaws

Barbarian hunt
Barbarian hunt
Barbarian hunt
Barbarian

Barbarian hunt
Barbarian hunt
Barbarian hunt
Barbarian


BATMAN
------
Batman, Batman, Batman, Batman

Batman, Batman, Batman, Batman

CRIMSON CARRIE
--------------
Burning candles in the house across the street
Rituals for you and me
Praying to the Lord Jesus
Repent for all your sins

Crimson Carrie, mother told you so
Now it's time to burn in Hell
Burn in Hell

Pig's blood runnin' down your dress
Tears of anger on your face
Turn the prom room into fire
Lock them all inside

Crimson Carrie, mother told you so
Now it's time to burn in Hell
Burn in Hell

Crimson Carrie
Crimson Carrie


DAWN OF THE DEAD
----------------
Shot off head on a Saturday night
Now, it was all done in fear
Green and blue, oh what a sight
It was all done in fear

They came at night time
They came at day time
They came from memory

They stalk the grounds of Pennsylvania
Eat a limb here and there
No hard feelings, no indigestion
It's just a friendly nightmare

They came at night time
They came at day time
They came from memory

But do they know, do they know
What they're lookin' for
But do they know, do they know
What they're shoppin' for

Shot off head on a Saturday night
Now, it was all done in fear
Grean and blue, oh what a sight
It was all done in fear

They came at night time
They came at day time
They came from memory

But do they know, do they know
What they're lookin' for
But do they know, do they know
What they're shoppin' for


DEATH IN A WHITE CLOUD
----------------------
The Russians thought they had it first
The Germans knew it ought to last
The coming of a warhead age
Has left the world in a daze

The story now it be must be told
The moral though we'll never know
The reason that it had to be
Is 'cause there's no eternity

So look up in the sky
Staring straight at you
Death in a white cloud
There's nothing you can do

So look up in the sky
Staring straight at you
Death in a white cloud
There's nothing you can do

Death in a white cloud
Staring straight at you
Death in a white cloud
There's nothing you can do
There's nothing you can do
There's nothing you can do!


DEMON EYES
----------
The earth stood still as I came its way
All of God's children had to pay
For all the problems that they made
And pretendin' they'll fade away

I've had my shares of ups and downs
And livin' in the strangest towns
But now that I've had my fill
I'm ready for the kill

My demon eyes can't be disguised
And how I wish they'd neutralize
My demon eyes can't be disguised
And how I wish they'd neutralize

My demon eyes can't be disguised
And how I wish they'd neutralize
My demon eyes can't be disguised
And how I wish they'd neutralize

My demon eyes, my demon eyes
My demon eyes, my demon eyes
My demon eyes, my demon eyes
My demon eyes, my demon eyes


EMPTY GRAVE
-----------
I pass the iron gates
Walk down to block 45
The grass is really green
And tombstones shine eternally
Caretakers smile at me
As they dig a grave - no entity
No name upon this stone
Could it be my very own?

This space was meant for me
Death trip delivery
Won't wear a bluish face
Or fill this empty space
Dead souls are after me
They want my company
No time to act real brave
Or fill this empty grave

Satan at the graveyard entrance
Waiting to capture me
So I run to the nearest exit
And fifty souls corner me
And just like a Hitchcock scene
I'm left alone without a key
My body shakes so - uncontrollably

This space was meant for me
Death trip delivery
Won't wear a bluish face
Or fill this empty space
Dead souls are after me
They want my company
No time to act real brave
Or fill this empty grave

Empty grave
Empty grave
Empty grave
Empty grave


FIGHTING CHANCE
---------------
All day long on the assembly line
I break my back in vain
Working for an empty life
That's nothing but insane

Minimum wage is all you get
In a world full of greed
While others get filthy rich
On someone else's scheme

All the times that we felt sick
We couldn't risk our jobs
The boss's threats hung high in the air
And we learned to comply

Always on the go and pressured to our deaths

We didn't even have a fighting chance
We didn't even have a fighting chance
We didn't even have a fighting chance
We didn't even have a fighting chance


FOOLISH GRIEF
-------------
When the time has come to finally say goodbye
And you don't even know the reason why
Just be glad that you're free
There's plenty more fish in the sea
It's time to turn a new leaf
And end this game of foolish grief

I know it's so hard to forget about the past
But why bother when it didn't even last?
Things will never be the same
If you play a child's game
It's time to turn a new leaf
And rid yourself of foolish grief

Foolish grief
Foolish grief
Foolish grief
Foolish grief

I'm talking 'bout foolish grief
You better stop all your cryin'


LASER LIGHTS
------------
It was a dark and dreary, rainy night
Must have been runnin' for miles and miles
We shot back and we won the battle
But we didn't win the war

Giant metal figures burnin' everything
Burning people of every race
Had no mercy for anyone
But probably meant no harm

I looked and looked all around 
For humans that did survive
Nothing but remnants of burning flesh
Could this be the end

There was no use in turning back
When surrounded by these one-eyed things
Nowhere to run and death is near
No one left to fear

I'm still runnin' from the laser lights
Now, I'm still runnin' from those flashin' sights
Don't wanna be burned to the ground
Like the guilty witch

I'm still runnin' from the laser lights
Now, I'm still runnin' from those flashin' sights
Don't wanna be burned to the ground
Like the guilty witch

Laser lights, laser lights
Laser lights, laser lights


MR. SURVEILLANCE
----------------
I'm setting up cameras in your department
To keep an eye on you
Your sneaky ways of stealing cash
Will soon be through

Take a look around you
Tell me what you see
Take a look around you
You filthy little thief

All of your crooked friends
Think you're so cool
When you give them clothes
Their wallet feels like new

Take a look around you
Tell me what you see
Take a look around you
You filthy little thief

Mr. Surveillance
Has got his eye on you
Mr. Surveillance
Knows your every move

Mr. Surveillance
Has got his eye on you
Mr. Surveillance
Knows your every move


MONSTER MADNESS
---------------
Little Igor on the run
You know Count Drac's right behind
Frankie's only a mile away
I think I'll come back another day
See these things in front of me
Are just another part of society

Bride of Frankie's on her slab
As I sneak down to the lab
But to my great surprise
Here comes doc with all those evil eyes
Wavin' an axe thru the air
I scream out loud but nobody hears

Monster madness, it's monster madness
Monster madness, creatures everywhere
Monster madness, it's monster madness
Monster madness, running from their lairs

So now I'm in a state of shock
Monsters prowlin' round the clock
Stay a little while and join the fun
No need for fright, I just wanna bite
We'll supply the terror, you supply the blood
Hunt you to the ground and bury you in mud

I've got teeth marks on my neck
Can't stand garlic or a wooden stake
Sacrilegious creep on the run
No reflections in the mirror, I'll bite anyone
Oh! I love the taste of hemoglobin
Swishin' round and round, I'm a filthy sin

Monster madness, it's monster madness
Monster madness, creatures everywhere
Monster madness, it's monster madness
Monster madness, running from their lairs

Monster madness, it's monster madness
Monster madness, creatures everywhere
Monster madness, it's monster madness
Monster madness, running from their lairs


MURDER MACHINE
--------------
Every time I step inside
I feel the urge to kill
My blood begins to boil
And my nerves start to chill
It's controlling me by force
To make people scream
Oh! I'm just a vehicle
To carry out your dream

So, put me in your box
And set the dials up to ten
Increase electric pulse
So I'll kill and kill again

So, put me in your box
And set the dials up to ten
Increase electric pulse
So I'll kill and kill again

So, put me in your box
And set the dials up to ten
Increase electric pulse
So I'll kill and kill again

So, put me in your box
And set the dials up to ten
Increase electric pulse
So I'll kill and kill again


NESTLE BABY KILLER
------------------
They're killing babies in third world countries
With ad campaigning for bottle feeding
The lack of money and proper sanitation
Increase the risk for undernourished creatures

Small wonder if they ever stopped to think about it
Small wonder if they knew what they were gonna do
The formula to make them look so modern
Is really nothing but a

Nestle baby killer
Corporation feeds your every need
Nestle baby killer
Everyone around me is diseased
Nestle baby killer

Small wonder if they ever stopped to think about it
Small wonder if they knew what they were gonna do
The formula to make them look so modern
Is really nothing but a

Nestle baby killer
Corporation feeds your every need
Nestle baby killer
Everyone around me is diseased

I'm talking about N E S T L E S
Nestles' makes the very very best!


PROGRESS FOR THE PEOPLE
-----------------------
Hide behind the flag
To cover up your guilt
Profits rollin' in
Production's at full tilt
While we rake in the money
From our good friends overseas
Russia is starving
And Asia is diseased

American progress, our ingenuity
The only ones who suffer are fools like you and me
American progress, our ingenuity
The only ones who suffer are fools like you and me

Out stocks are going up
And we're really in the green
We censor Swedish books
But which is more obscene
Money, power, lies, deceit
Is where the money's at
Our good friends at the White House
Use bills to wipe their crap

American progress, our ingenuity
The only ones who suffer are fools like you and me
American progress, our ingenuity
The only ones who suffer are fools like you and me


RADICAL
-------
We don't wanna be no fool
We don't wanna stay in school
This whole system only feeds the
Latest neo-commie needs

We're radical
Fanatical
We're radical
Right wing!

Teacher, teacher won't you teach
Instead of acting like the preach
Feed your bullshit to the birds
'Cause all we need are common words

We're radical
Fanatical
We're radical
Right wing!

Teacher, teacher won't you teach
Instead of acting like the preach
Feed your bullshit to the birds
'Cause all we need are common words

We're radical
Fanatical
We're radical
Right wing!


VINCENT'S THEME
---------------
Behind that door lies Vincent Price
All dressed in black
Ready to make his big attack
Can anybody strike back?

Behind that door lies Vincent Price
Behind that door lies Vincent Price

Oh! Vincent Price all dressed in black
Can anybody strike back?
When blood's drippin' down your spine
You've paid the price of a horror fine

Behind that door lies Vincent Price
Behind that door lies Vincent Price
Kill!

Behind that door lies Vincent Price
Behind that door lies Vincent Price
Behind that door lies Vincent Price
