[Intro]
Kick ass!
[Verse 1]
If you're taking a flight at the speed of light
You're shaking your heads to the band
If you're there on your horse, but you're not on the force
We're taking this place to the ground
In the heat of the night when your fists are alight
Forged on anvils of steel
If your body's on fire, about to expire
We go to the threshold of pain
[Chorus]
Pull your head back, hold your hands high, shake your body (body...)
If it's too loud and you're burning hot
Fill your heads with heavy metal thunder
Heavy metal thunder
[Verse 2]
On the wings of an eagle you're hoping to fly
Holding your hands to the sky
On a blue sea of denim, checkin' the band with
Your banners and scarves held on high
If you think something more you'll come down to the front
Don't sit there and do as they say
We're an army of thousands surrounded by lights
Tearing this place to the ground
[Chorus]
Pull your heads back, hold your hands high, shake your body (body...)
If it's too loud and you're burning hot
Fill your heads with heavy metal thunder
Heavy metal thunder
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Pull your heads back, hold your hands high, shake your body (body...)
If it's too loud and you're burning hot
Fill your heads with heavy metal thunder
Heavy metal thunder
[Verse 1]
If you're taking a flight at the speed of light
You're shaking your heads to the band
If you're there on your horse, but you're not on the force
We're taking this place to the ground
In the heat of the night when your fists are alight
Forged on anvils of steel
If your body's on fire, about to expire
We go to the threshold of pain
[Chorus]
Pull your heads back, hold your hands high, shake your body (body...)
If it's too loud and you're burning hot
Fill your heads with heavy metal thunder
Heavy metal thunder
[Verse 2]
On the wings of an eagle you're hoping to fly
Holding your hands to the sky
In a blue sea of denim, checkin' the band with
Your banners and scarves held on high
If you think something more you'll come down to the front
Don't sit there and do as they say
We're an army of thousands surrounded by lights
Nobody stands in our way
[Chorus]
Pull your heads back, hold your hands high, shake your body (body...)
If it's too loud and you're burning hot
Fill your heads with heavy metal thunder
Heavy metal thunder
Heavy metal thunder
Heavy metal thunder
