Got a sight of something, later the other night Made the blood in my veins run colder than ice In the TV's glow my mind's on Cruise Control The man on television says we're under attack from rockin' Rock and roll Zombies from Hell Death Chicago Destruction San Francisco Gone Newark Dust Lost Angeles Trashed Pittsburgh Killed Miami Lost New Orleans Desolate San Diego Slayed Detroit Burned Tallahassee Flat Dallas Torched New York, New York
Better burn your records, set 'em all alight Lock up all your windows, better shutter 'em up tight Watch where your kids go... keep 'em all... Home at Night
Better get ourselves together or we'll all be wasted Rock and Roll Zombies From Hell Rock and Roll Zombies From Hell
Years ago in a happier time, everything was right But somewhere in paradise blazing red eyes Drilled holes in the night
Ain't no stopping what we got under construction When we lay it down, don't dare miss our production Won't be satisfied till you're in full reduction We are here to stay, we are the earth's destruction
Even though you try, there ain't any use Putting up your best fight. You couldn't win No matter whether or not you try with all your might
You don't know that you're dealing out of your league You best just come around to see The enemy's won Earth's begun to crash down to the ground
Should have seen the warnings Should have been concerned But when a clue was offered Your back was always turned
So take it on your feet Though all hope is gone If you wipe the tears from out of your eyes You'll see that I was right all along
Now up in your room, you hide yourself away And it seems you're losing touch A little bit more with every passing day Maybe it's a nightmare from which you can't escape
And there's something breathing out there under your fire escape
Working for a living is a social disease I'm looking for a style that won't drag me down A ray of hope from something better shone its headlights on me When it came driving through this dirty town
It had a thousand horse power Hit three twenty-five Came screaming down from heaven like an angel in disguise
Sent from heaven calling out to me I'd shine in my luxury cruiser Out of my way don't try to get between Me and my luxury cruiser
Cruising down the street like a leopard in heat I think I finally found something worth my time If I can't have heaven, get my own piece of hell Not owning you would be a capital crime
It had a six speed soul made my temperature rise Screaming down my dirty street It left a crack in the sky
Swing down low luxury cruiser Rise up from the bitch you were born from Out of my way don't try to get between Me and my luxury cruiser
Just to touch you, I'd use any device
I'd pray, I'd beg, I'd steal, I'd kill
Sent from heaven calling out to me I'd shine in my luxury cruiser Out of my way don't try to get between Me and my luxury cruiser
Sent from heaven calling out to me I'd shine in my luxury cruiser Out of my way don't try to get between Me and my luxury cruiser
They moralize us to death but fail to say We're all supporting actors in a very short play So put your pedal to the metal and throw caution to the wind I'm gonna bust down those pearly gates So they let me in
