DEAD KINGS RISE (demo version)
------------------------------
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey

Bound by battle scars
When the savages reigned
The lord of war
From his right hand man betrayed
Beneath the battle field
His murdered corpse they hide
Oh, curse from Hell
Avenge my death
Avenge the lies

(Oh) Flesh they stole
But the soul is not begotten
(Oh) Through the gates of Hell
I'll seize my throne
(Oh) Feel my sword
Though the flesh be dead and rotten
(Oh) Dead kings rise for
Vengeance owed

Bound by battle scars
When the savages reigned
The lord of war
From his right hand man betrayed
Beneath the battle field
His murdered corpse they hide
Oh, curse from Hell
Avenge my death
Avenge the lies

(Oh) Flesh they stole
But the soul is not begotten
(Oh) Through the gates of Hell
I'll seize my throne
(Oh) Feel my sword
Though the flesh be dead and rotten
(Oh) Dead kings rise for
Vengeance owed

Woah-oh

(Oh) Flesh they stole
But the soul is not begotten
(Oh) Through the gates of Hell
I'll seize my throne
(Oh) Feel my sword
Though the flesh be dead and rotten
(Oh) Dead kings rise for
Vengeance owed

Oh-oh-oh-oh, hey, hey
Oh-oh-oh-oh


BLACKLIGHT (demo version)
-------------------------
A pounding pulse stirs anxious feelings inside
Sick breaths of undead life

"Help me angel evil" cried
The children of the night
Take this wasted mortal life
Melt me into blacklight

Lie on the floor and let the body die
Become the beasts in which you fear

"Help me angel evil" cried
The children of the night
Take this wasted mortal life
Melt me into blacklight

"Help me angel evil" cried
The children of the night
Take this wasted mortal life
Melt me into blacklight

On
Go



THE HAUNTING (demo version)
---------------------------
The darkness bleeds violent sights
It purges from within
Death, it holds you in its arms
And kisses you goodnight

Oh, oh, oh, the darkness comes
Oh, oh, oh, I feel its bite
Oh, it purges from within

It's over, it's over
This haunting, it's over
They cut my wrists, and watch me bleed
Inside a dream

It's over, it's over
This haunting, it's over
They cut my wrists and watch me bleed
They stop haunting me

The darkness bleeds violent sights
It purges from within
Death, it holds you in its arms
And kisses you goodnight

Oh, oh, oh, the darkness comes
Oh, oh, oh, I feel its bite
Oh, it purges from within

It's over, it's over
This haunting, it's over
They cut my wrists, and watch me bleed
Inside a dream

It's over, it's over
This haunting, it's over
They cut my wrists and watch me bleed
They stop haunting me


THE HUNGER (demo version)
-------------------------
We become
Erupt in violence
Destroy the silence
Our time has come
Go

We are the outcasted, ancient descendents
The ones who've been calling and
Would you still die for the dead, yet still living
Starved of a time that's now come, whoa-oh

We are the children
The hungry children

We become
Erupt in violence
Seduce the silence
Our time has come
Go

We are the kindred, Hell's ancient descendent slaves
Begging the night not to go
Would you still die for the dead, yet still living
Starved of a life that's now gone, whoa-oh

We are the children
The hungry children

We become
Blood quench the hunger
You want it, you need it
Blood quench the hunger
You want it, you need it
Blood quench the hunger
You want it, you need it

Oh, whoa


MARS ATTACKS (demo version)
---------------------------
Their eyes for many centuries
Peered in from space
Sincere the hope, their wise believed
They could teach our race

But yet on Mars, a darker side
Like all things that God made
Their tribe of war, would heed them not
"Earth they must invade"

See: the fire in the skies
See: them devastate the land
Mars attacks: the warlord chief commands

See: the humans fight and die
See: our planet laid to waste
Mars attacks: monsters invade the earth from space

It was then, in our darkest hour
When everything seemed lost
The hearts of men would not concede
No matter what the cost

They forged a sword of sound and steel
Upon the Martian doors
The voice of war would thunder there
And "Mars would be no more"

See: the Martian cities fall
See: the death of the warrior tribe
Mars attacks, now their planet won't survive

See: their world turn into ash
See: the terror on their face
Mars explodes, cast out as rubble into space

Woah-oh, oh, oh
Woah-oh, oh, oh
Mars Attacks: monsters invade the earth from space

Woah-oh, oh, oh
Woah-oh, oh, oh
Woah-oh, oh, oh


DR. PHIBES RISES AGAIN (demo version)
-------------------------------------
Years ago they took from me
The only thing I ever loved
For I've returned, hear me say
There's nowhere to run

Vengeance is mine, snap of your spine
Tracking, the wolf's at your throat

Succulently, the beast so silent feeding
Into Hell you go speeding
Your life's at stake
The abominable Dr. Phibes rises again
By the moon crypt doors open
Every last bone was broken
Murder without a clue
For Dr. Phibes rises again

Oh, my wife again you'll live
The gift of life be mine to give
First there's things that I must do
Make them pay for killing you

My patients, my prey, all flesh torn away
Nurse scalpel please, skinned to the bone
Killed on the phone, what a shame, no one home

Succulently, the beast so silent feeding
Into Hell you go speeding
Your life's he takes
The abominable Dr. Phibes rises again
By the moon crypt doors open
Killed before one word's spoken
Murder without a clue
For Dr. Phibes rises again

Ancient Egyptian river
Once upon life will give her
And there we'll ride, oh
Anton Phibes, oh rises again, rises again

Down, down the river of life
No more pain, no more strife
And we can be together again, yeah

Oh, to be, oh forever to be
Oh, oh, it is my dream
It is our destiny, oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

The beast so savage feeding
From his brow sweat is beading
Make no mistake
For Dr. Phibes rises again
All of the lives I've taken
For you my heart was breakin'
No one survives when
Dr. Phibes rises again
As we sit on the river
Breath of life make me shiver
Open your eyes my dear
Rise from the grave
Now that my task's completed
For I have death defeated
Gone without a trace
Anton Phibes, oh rises again, rises again
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Rises again
Ha ha ha ha ha ha

MONSTER MASH
------------
Good evening!

I was working in the lab late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
My monster, from its slab, began to rise
And suddenly to my surprise

He did the Mash, he did the Monster Mash
The Monster Mash, and it's a graveyard smash
He did the Mash, it caught on in a flash
He did the Mash, he did the Monster Mash

From my laboratory in the castle east
To the master bedroom, where the vampires feast
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
To get a jolt from my electrodes

They did the Mash, they did the Monster Mash
The Monster Mash, it was a graveyard smash
They did the Mash, they caught on in a flash
They did the Mash, they did the Monster Mash

The zombies were having fun
The party had just begun
The guests included Wolfman
Dracula, and his son

The scene was rocking, all were digging the sound
Igor on chains, backed by his baying hounds
The Coffin Bangers were about to arrive
With their vocal group, The Crypt Keeper Five

They did the Mash, they played the Monster Mash
The Monster Mash, it was a graveyard smash
They played the Mash, they caught on in a flash
They played the Mash, they played the Monster Mash

Out of his coffin his voice did ring
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
Opened the lid, shook his fist, and said
"Whatever happened to my Transylvania Twist?"

It's now the Mash, it's now the Monster Mash
The Monster Mash, and it's a graveyard smash
It's now the Mash, it caught on in a flash
It's now the Mash, it's now the Monster Mash

Now everything is cool, Drac's a part of the band
My Monster Mash is the hit of the land
For you, the living, this Mash was meant, too
When you get to my door, tell them Only sent you

Then you can Mash, then you can Monster Mash
The Monster Mash, another graveyard smash
Then you can Mash, you'll catch on in a flash
Then you can Mash, you did the Monster Mash

The Monster Mash...


I WANNA BE A NY RANGER
----------------------
I wanna be a New York Ranger
I wanna live the life of danger
I wanna be a New York Ranger
I wanna live the life of danger

Whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa

I wanna be a New York Ranger
I wanna live the life of danger
I wanna be a New York Ranger
I wanna live the life of danger

Whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa

I wanna be a New York Ranger
I wanna live the life of danger
I wanna be a New York Ranger
I wanna live the life of danger

Whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa

Whoa oh Rangers
Go Rangers
Go New York



SCREAM (demo version)
---------------------
Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh
Whoa oh oh
Scream!!

A chill runs up your spine
And crawls into your brain
A freezing touch of fear
It's driving me insane
Although you cannot fight
Dragged from the silence where you hide
As you scream
Scream
Scream

A chill runs up your spine
And crawls into your brain
A freezing touch of fear
It's driving me insane
Although you cannot fight
Dragged from the silence where you hide

As you scream
Scream
Scream
Scream

It's driving me insane
Although you cannot fight
Dragged from the silence where you hide
As you scream
Scream
Scream
I want to hear you scream

Scream
Scream
Scream
I want to hear you scream


1,000,000 YEARS BC
------------------
1-2-3-4

They're calling me, creatures of the night
Beautiful music, animal instincts survived
The serpent's tongue, so ancient, before the dawn of time
Fed throughout the ages on the blood of mankind

Ooh, I've seen it all
Ooh, From grace men fall
Babylon
Curse of all creation
Winged serpent of the pit
Monstrosity

One million years BC
One million years BC
One million years BC

Ten thousand centuries ago
Cast down from Heaven to pillage below
The serpent's eyes, still watching for its easy prey
Feed upon the hopeless, the weak and afraid

Ooh, I've seen it all
Ooh, From grace they fall
Babylon
Curse of all creation
Winged serpent of the pit
Monstrosity

One million years BC
One million years BC
One million years BC

One million years BC
One million years BC
One million years BC

One million years BC
One million years BC
One million years BC

Whoa-oh-oh-oh


HELENA 2
--------
If I cut off your arms and cut off your legs
Would you still love me anyway?
If you're bound and you're gagged, draped and displayed
Would you still love me anyway?

Why don't you love me anyway?
Why don't you love me anyway?

If I cut off your arms and cut off your legs
Would you still love me anyway?
If you're bound and you're gagged, draped and displayed
Would you still love me, love me anyway

Why don't you love me anyway?
Why don't you love me anyway?
Why don't you love me anyway?
Why don't you love me anyway?

Go!

Cutting with a knife, blood is spilling everywhere
She will be my wife, secondary spine
Incisions must be accurate, I know just what to do
My hands are trembling I can't spare to slip up with this knife

Her beauty so illogical, the beast come gliding in
Hideous chameleon stripped down to her skin
Dance to the burning flame, pleasure exhumes the pain
The night bursts into flame

Dance, Helena, dance
Woooah oooooh!

If I cut off your arms and cut off your legs
Would you still love me anyway?
There's a spot on the floor where your limbs used to be
And I close the door on my fantasies

Why don't you love me anyway?
Why don't you love me anyway? (Dance)
Why don't you love me anyway? (Helena)
Why don't you love me anyway? (Helena)


DEVIL DOLL
----------
Once upon a long time ago lived a humble puppet maker
His son lost and died, blamed himself as he tried
To sell his soul ever after

I have the power, if you have the nerve
You will be mine, my request you will serve
A flash of his tail and the spread of his wings
I hold the power, the devil did sing

He signed in blood along the dotted line by the silence
Here's the soul of your boy, as I promised, in this toy
Pull his strings and hear my laughter

No use in trying, the damage is done
What have I done, oh, my beautiful son
The deal has been sealed, signed, delivered to hell
My deep, darkest secrets and no one to tell

Once upon a long time ago lived evil
Awakened to find that you're looking through the eyes of a 
Madman's evil monster

Devil Doll
Devil Doll
Evil be thy master

Devil Doll
Devil Doll
Evil be thy master

No use in trying, the damage is done
What have I done, oh, my beautiful son
The deal has been sealed, signed, delivered to hell
My deep, darkest secrets and no one to tell

Awakened to find that you're looking through the eyes of a 
Madman's evil monster
Oooh, Evil be thy master
Oooh, A madman's evil monster
Oooh, Evil be thy master

Whoah oh oh oh
["evil monster" laugh]


FIEND WITHOUT A FACE
--------------------
See the features of my rage
Begin to shoot the fiend without a face
My face

The fever rots 
The brain goes numb inside
I feel the blackout coming 
A boiled blister pops inside

My ears still bleed
With razor-sharp precision
Mouths that mouth the sweetness 
Dank of final breath upon my chest

See the features of my rage
Begin to shoot the fiend without a face
My face

We lasted all night
The dogs keep up and snickering
Just stay with me one moment 
Then I'll go away

My ears still bleed
With razor-sharp precision
I'll burn in hell 
Before I plunge into life's darkness
Darkness

See the features of my rage
Begin to shoot the fiend without a face
See the features of my rage
Begin to shoot the fiend without a face
My face

A fiend without a face
A fiend without a face
A fiend without a face
A fiend without a face


BRUISER
-------
All I feel is pain it seems today
A dark angel leads me to evil far beyond the grave
Declares me a phantom demon I don't know
It just cannot be defied
At Hell this reflection stares at me
And then I lose my mind
It betrays me

Oh, In hell I'll burn in flames
Oh oh oh oh, If looks could kill then death would be my name
Oh oh oh oh, In hell I'll burn in flames
Oh oh oh oh, So come inside the fires feel

Angel of Death is bloodied now
He's the one inside
Tortured, scored that strike
Against the fear, it feeds the fire
Near me now, the demon's son
Bruiser I'm the one
Erase my soul for all your sins can never be undone
I can't contain it

Oh, In hell I'll burn in flames
Oh oh oh oh, If looks could kill then death would be my name
Oh oh oh oh, In hell I'll burn in flames
Oh oh oh oh, So come inside the fires feel the pain (whoa oh)
Feel the pain
The pain

Oh, In hell I'll burn in flames
Oh oh oh oh, If looks could kill then death would be my name (my name)
Oh oh oh oh, In hell I'll burn in flames
Oh oh oh oh, So come inside the fires feel the pain
Feel the pain
Feel the pain (whoa oh)
Feel the pain yeah
Feel the pain


NO MORE MOMENTS
---------------
We have been waiting for you
We have been waiting for you
For you

We're still waiting for you to come inside
You won't be leaving, you are mine 
I am afraid that the end is near
No more moments of moonlight 

We're still waiting for you to come inside
You won't be leaving, you are mine 
I'm so afraid that the end is near
No more moments of moonlight 

We'll still be waiting

I'm still waiting for you
Those sick dead eyes tell me, tell me you are mine 
I am afraid that the end is here
No more moments of moonlight 

I have been there to push you through,
Down, down, down through the deep dark wells 
Through the animal realm 
Let me be the one, the first to welcome you to hell

Your poor pathetic lies and evil ways have brought you here
Give it all to me
I need for you to stay here with me
Don't go away
I'll stay here with you until the end of time, until it all goes away
Don't run this way 


RISE ABOVE
----------
Jealous cowards try to control
Rise above, we're gonna rise above
They distort what we say
Rise above, we're gonna rise above
Try and stop what we do
Rise above, we're gonna rise above
When they can't do it themselves
Rise above, we're gonna rise above

We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us, it's no use

Societies arms of control
Rise above, we're gonna rise above
Think they're smart, can't think for themselves
Rise above, we're gonna rise above
Laugh at us behind our backs
Rise above, we're gonna rise above
I find satisfaction in what they lack
Rise above, we're gonna rise above

We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us, but it's no use

We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us, it's no use

We are born with a chance
Rise above, we're gonna rise above
I am gonna have my chance
Rise above, we're gonna rise above
We are born with a chance
Rise above, we're gonna rise above
And I am gonna have my chance
Rise above, we're gonna rise above

We are tired of your abuse
Try to stop us, it's no use

Rise above, rise above, rise above
We're gonna rise above
We're gonna rise above
We're gonna rise above
