Kings Of Metal Lyrics

Kings of metal

manowar manowar living on the road
when we´re in town speakers explode
we don´t attract wimps ´cause we´re too loud
just true metal people that´s manowar´s crowd
they wanna keep us down
but they can´t last
when we get up we´re gonna kick your ass
gonna keep on burnin´
we always will
other bands play manowar kill
other bands play manowar kill
we like it hard, we like it fast
we got the biggest amps, man they blast
true metal people wanna rock not pose
wearin´ jeans and leather, not cracker jack clothes
they wanna keep us down
but they can´t last
when we get up we´re gonna kick your ass
gonna keep on burnin´
we always will
other bands play manowar kill

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is pretty good, although it is a cover. It's not my favorite Beatsteaks song, but it is pretty good. I think it's obvious that it is about a metal band, and their life on the road and what not. It's pretty cool.
