Metallica – Metal Militia

Thunder and lightning the gods take revenge, senseless destruction
Victims of fury are cowardly now, running for safety
Stabbing the harlot to pay for her sins, leaving the virgin
Suicide running as if it were free, ripping and tearing

On through the mist and the madness
We are trying to get the message to you
Metal militia!
Metal militia!
Metal militia!

Chained and shadowed to be left behind, nine and one thousand
Metal militia for your sacrifice, iron clad soldiers
Join or be conquered the law of the land, what will befall you
The metallization of your inner soul, twisting and turning

On through the mist and the madness
We are trying to get the message to you
Metal militia!
Metal militia!
Metal militia!

We are as one as we all are the same, fighting for one cause
Leather and metal are our uniforms, protecting what we are
Joining together to take on the world, with our heavy metal
Spreading the message to everyone here, come let yourself go

On through the mist and the madness
We are trying to get the message to you
Metal militia!
Metal militia!
Metal militia!
