I can't believe nobody has commented on this yet. This is easily my most favourite motorhead song.
Wether it is due to the fast drums with minimalistic riffs and monotone singing during the verses but angry and aggressive choruses, or the lyrics that, while rather mysterious, still manage to convey a strong atmosphere... I don't know.
As to the meaning... not easy to understand (for me) what this is about, even for Lemmy it's unusually cryptic. Maybe about people who want others to fear them, but don't relize their insignificance? Nah... I have the feeling this is about some very specific character, yet I cannot place it...
