Seek & Destroy (Live - Seattle ’89)

[James Hetfield, spoken]
Since we have so many fucking nutty friends here
I thought you guys might want to do some singing tonight
Am I right?

Fuck you! You want to do some screaming, right?
All right, another question
You got the album "Kill 'Em All", don't you?
All right, so some old friends from back a little ways, yeah?
Dig, so if you don't..
If you don't know the words
Study your buddies out there
I'm sure they'll help you out one way or another
It goes something like "Seek and Destroy"

[Instrumental Intro]

Burp!

[Jason Newsted, spoken]
That's not real fast, man
That won't make the grade
Burp!
No, you almost threw up

[James Hetfield, spoken]
So what if I almost fucking threw up?
So what?

[Jason Newsted, spoken]
You want to buy a watch? man

[James Hetfield, spoken]
You're gonna buy a watch?
Five bucks
You don't like the short version, do you?
All right

[Intro]
Let's wake up, man!
All right!

Lеt's see some action out there, man!
Comе on!

[Verse 1]
Scanning the scene
In the city tonight
We're looking for you
To start up a fight
There's an evil feeling
In our brains
But it's nothing new
You know it drives us insane

[Pre-Chorus]
Running, on our way, hiding, you will pay
Dying, one thousand deaths
Running, on our way, hiding, you will pay
Dying, one thousand deaths

[Chorus]
Searching, seek and destroy
Can't hear that shit, man
Come on!
Searching, seek and destroy!
You can do better than that shit, man
Searching, seek and destroy
That ain't everyone
Searching, seek and destroy

[Verse 2]
There is no escape
And that's for sure
This is the end
We won't take any more
Say goodbye
To the world you live in
You've always been taking
And now you're giving

[Pre-Chorus]
Running, on our way, hiding, you will pay
Dying, one thousand deaths
Running, on our way, hiding, and your mom's on sale
That was fucking cheap

[Chorus]
Searching, seek and destroy
Hey man, what is that shit?
Come on!
Searching, seek and destroy!
You were louder before man
Searching, seek and destroy
Let's get the neighbours up man
Searching, seek and destroy!

[Instrumental Break]
By the way... that's Lars

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Our brains are on fire
With the feeling to kill
And it won't go away
Until we drink all your beers
There is only one thing
On our minds
Don't try running away
'Cause you're the one we will find

[Pre-Chorus]
Running, on our way, hiding, you will pay
Dying, one thousand deaths
Running, on our way, hiding
Die motherfucker!

[Chorus]
Searching, seek and destroy
Hey man, what happened?
Let's wake up!
Searching, seek and destroy!
Sing it like you fucking mean it man!
Searching, seek and destroy
Let's go, one last one
Searching, seek and destroy, aha-ha, yeah...

[Outro]
Yeah!
Fuck yeah man! Ha ha

Hey you guys are fucking loud when you want to be
You know that?

I figure there's some sleeping neighbours out there
I feel like fucking waking their ass up
How about you?
Let's make some noise for the neighbours, all right?
Oh, yeah!
Yeah!
Come on man, we got to wake their ass out of bed
Oh, yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Shit!
Shit!
Fuck!
Fuck!
Cunt!
Cunt!
Fag!
Fag!
Slut!
Slut!
Your momma
If I was the neighbour I'll be mighty fucking pissed off
