Heavy Metal Lyrics

When the power chords come crashing down
Go tearing through my senses
It's for the strong, not for the weak
In light and dark dimensions

It stimulates, regenerates
It's therapeutic healing
It lifts our feet up off the ground
and blasts us through the ceiling

Between the eyes
I hear it screaming
And it electrifies
Your inner feelings

Hot shock waves charge the air
All heads are banging
Fists pumping everywhere
Guitars are cranking Heavy Metal.

Heavy Metal
What do you want
Heavy Metal. Heavy Metal

What do you want
Ten thousand lights come blazing down
With razor sharp precision
The speakers pour out molten steel
The beat gives double vision

An armour plated raging beast
That's born of steel and leather
It will survive against all odds
Stampeding on forever

Between the eyes
I hear it screaming
And it electrifies
Your inner feelings

Hot shock waves charge the air
All heads are banging
Fists pumping everywhere
Guitars are cranking Heavy Metal. Heavy Metal

What do you want
Heavy Metal. Heavy Metal
What do you want

In my 18yr old female opinion, the BEST METAL SONG EVER!!! It inspires me & motivates me. It makes me powerful and unites me with other Metalheads, it is a Masterpiece and has completly elevated my already existing EXTREME APPRECIATION OF JUDA'S PRIEST. This song is a big part of my life. YES!

as Jonfool said it's a description of what Heavy Metal is.

That moment when a song starts, you may not like the band but you know the genre and a part of you feels the beat and fury.

For me I was 8 years old I listened to Adam & The Ants who had some pretty fierce songs themselves (loved the Burrundi drumming style) and then I heard it -

Motorhead's Motorhead and my music taste changed forever.

This song is in many way just as potent
