White Heat, Red Hot Lyrics

The father's son, thy kingdom come, electric ecstasy,
Deliver us from all the fuss and give us sanctuary.
Lead us all into arena, magnificent in death.
Well let us serenade the sinner, we'll follow in his step.

White heat, red hot burns deep, white heat red hot.

The fury songs, venomous wrongs so rich in tragedy,
An overture forever more to senseless victories.
Give to us this day of glory the power and the kill
So we avoid the wrath and all the almighty fire of

White heat, red hot burns deep, white heat red hot.
The heat's hot burns a lot.
Who are not cut out to fight this day will surely fall.
The few who stand to take command forever and ever are men.

Prepare to fight, unsheathe your scythe a ghastly beam of ill
To slice the life with blinding light and seventh dimensional skill.
The centuries of dedication inherited till at last
From years of solar gladiation can only end in

White heat, red hot burns deep, white heat red hot.
The heat's hot burns a lot.
Who are not cut out to fight this day will surely fall.
The few who stand to take command forever and ever are men.

White heat
Red hot
White heat
Red hot

This song is about light sabers (as in Star Wars), actually.

Prepare to fight, unsheathe your scythe a ghastly beam of ill To slice the life with blinding light and seventh dimensional skill. The centuries of dedication inherited till at last From years of solar gladiation can only end in White Heat Red Hot....

This album was written in the midst of Star Wars-Mania in 1977, and this is their tribute to the light saber. Pretty cool.

Cool! Thanks. A dude in a JP group I'm in on FB proposed the same theory and when I read the lyrics, I was like "Damn." Thanks for the info. Out of curiosity, did you come up with that theory on your own, or learn of it somewhere?

It's about being nuked, and war in general. The whole Stained Class album seems to have a futuristic/War theme with the exception of "Beyond The Realms of death.

I always got the impression the antagonist in BOTROD is a wounded soldier.
