KONG AT THE GATES
-----------------
(Instrumental)


THE FORBIDDEN ZONE
------------------
Some say that's where man began
On this wasted piece of land
Where evolution's yet to show (Forbidden Zone)
Blasting into outer space
The planet of the Apes
Evolution's one hero

Crossing a plane into another dimension
A million years into the future
Crossing a path into another dimension
We, the unseen

Back on Earth, it's all you'll read about
All the evidence destroyed
Maps and legends mark the firewalls
We, the lost abandoned saviors
Of the Forbidden Zone

Some say that's where Man began
On this wasted piece of land
Where evolution's yet to show (Forbidden Zone)
Blasting into outer space
The planet of the Apes
Evolution's one hero

And so he made it to another dimension
A million years into the future
He takes a path into another dimension
We, the unseen

Back on Earth, it's all you'll read about
All the evidence destroyed
Maps and legends mark the firewalls
We, the lost abandoned saviors

Back on Earth, it's all you'll read about
All the evidence destroyed
Maps and legends mark the firewalls
We, the lost abandoned saviors
We shall sustain the Forbidden Zone
The Forbidden Zone
The Forbidden Zone

(Oooooh) Blasting into outer space
The planet of the Apes
Evolution's one hero
Forbidden Zone


LOST IN SPACE
-------------
Go!
Of all the things they taught you
I'm telling you this, son
All the wars fought before won't compare to this one
Giant spiders prepare to take over

Here comes another mutant suicide squad
You blast them out but now you're way off course
You start to shiver and shake
I'm calling you, Houston

Am I following all the right leads?
Or am I about to get lost in space?
When my time comes
They'll write my destiny
Will you take this ride?

All communications lost
We crashed into the earth
Too late to see the giant spider monster giving birth
The future is here, and here is the future

Am I following all the right leads?
Or am I about to get Lost in Space?
When my time comes
They'll write my destiny
Will you take this ride?

(Voice - Danger, Danger, Will Robinson....Warning, Warning)

Will you take this ride?
Will you take this ride?
Will you take this ride?

Am I following all the right leads?
Or am I about to get Lost in Space?
When my time comes
They'll write my destiny
Will you take this ride?

Will you take this ride with me? (Take this ride, take this ride)
Whoa (Take this ride, take this ride)
Me (Take this ride, take this ride)
Whoa


DUST TO DUST
------------
Hate you father, for you have sinned
Why did you, Lord, let this life begin?
I'm not your saviour, I'm not your son
A forgotten boy, abandoned creation

With these final words I pull the switch
We turn to dust (Dust to dust)
My name's like the kiss of death
Then we embrace (We turn to dust)

With these final words I pull the switch
We turn to dust (Dust to dust)
My name's like the kiss of death
And we embrace, we turn to dust
Turn to dust

Oh!  Mother, Father, you answer me
Your soul-less son, your thing that should not be
A brilliant demon, a monster god
You gave me life but took the soul away

With these final words I pull the switch
We turn to dust (Dust to dust)
My name's like the kiss of death
And we embrace (We turn to dust)

With these final words I pull the switch
We turn to dust (Dust to dust)
My name's like the kiss of death
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Dust to dust

And we belong dead
We belong dead
We belong dead
We belong

With these final words I pull the switch
We turn to dust (Dust to dust)
My name's like the kiss of death
And we embrace (We turn to dust)

With these final words I pull the switch
We turn to dust (Dust to dust)
My name's like the kiss of death
And we embrace, we turn to dust

We turn to dust


CRAWLING EYE
------------
It's such a steep climb up the mountain's south side
It has a cloud that acts in such peculiar ways
Accident count rising, a young girl prophesizing
To protect their race they'll seize her mind

At this altitude it's freezing
Aliens control human beings
No one has lived to tell
Who's seen the crawling eye?

At this altitude it's freezing
Aliens control human beings
No one has lived to tell
Who's seen the crawling eye?

These evil demon eyes, under cloud cover hide
They have great tentacles to tear apart their prey
All these men are dying, crawling eye decapitizing
Fiends without a face attack mankind

At this altitude it's freezing
Aliens control human beings
No one has lived to tell
Who's seen the crawling eye?

At this altitude it's freezing
Aliens control human beings
No one has lived to tell
Who's seen the crawling eye?
Eye!

Crawling eye!
Crawling eye!
Crawling eye!


WITCH HUNT
----------
Wipe out the weak and dying
I've got no use for you
Sent from Hell, I know they're lying
It's just another sacrifice

We are on a witch hunt
Hunt her down will she sink or float?
We want independence from her spell

Exterminate the undetermined
I've got no use for you
Sent from Hell, I know they're lying
Hang her by her neck to die

We are on a witch hunt
Hunt her down will she sink or float?
We want independence from her spell

We're on a head hunt
We're on a blood hunt
We're on a witch hunt
And we're gonna get you
We're comin' after you, too

We're on a witch hunt
We're on a witch hunt

We are on a witch hunt
Hunt her down will she sink or float?
We want independence from her spell
We're under her spell

We're on a head hunt
We're on a blood hunt
We're on a witch hunt
And we're gonna get you
We're comin' after you


SCREAM!
-------
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 try to fight
Dragged from the silence where you hide
Till you scream
Till you scream

A chill runs up your spine
And crawls into your brain
A freezing touch of fear
It's driving me insane
Although you try to fight
Dragged from the silence where you hide

Till you scream
Till you scream
Scream
I can't wait to hear you scream

It's driving me insane
Although you try to fight
Dragged from the silence where you hide
Till you scream
Scream

I can't wait to hear you
I can't wait to hear you
Scream
I can't wait to hear you
I can't wait to hear you
Scream! Scream! Scream!


SATURDAY NIGHT
--------------
Oooooh oooh!
Whoa oh oh oh!
Noooo oh oh!

There's 52 ways to murder anyone
One and two are the same
And they both work as well
I'm coming clean for Amy
Julie doesn't scream as well
And the cops won't listen all night
And so maybe I'll be over
Just as soon as I fill them all in

And I can't remember when I saw her last
We were running around and having a blast, having a blast
But the backseat of the drive-in is so lonely without you
I know when you're home

I was thinking about you
There was something I forgot to say
I was crying on Saturday night
I was out cruising without you
They were playing our song
Crying on Saturday night

As the moon becomes the night time
You go viciously, quietly away
I'm sitting in the bedroom, where we used to sit and smoke cigarettes
Now I'm watching, watching you die (oh oh oh)

I can't remember when I saw her last
We were running around and having a blast
But the backseat (backseat) of the drive-in (drive-in) 
Is so lonely without you
I know when you're home

I was thinking about you
There was something I forgot to say
I was crying on Saturday night
I was out cruising without you
They were playing our song
Crying on Saturday night

Yeah!
Crying on Saturday night
Crying.... on Saturday.... night!


PUMPKIN HEAD
------------
Now this is a story of a good man named Ed
Left his son for a moment, returned, found him dead

Recalls a tale as a boy he was told
Of an evil witch so wicked, so old
So seeks a farmers advice he will not give
His oldest son knows just where the witch lived

He took Ed there but refused to go in
The boy knew what was about to begin
She has the power to avenge the dead
It costs your soul, now come with me, Ed

I'm gonna take you where your body will lie
I'm gonna take you there my friend
I'm gonna show you where your life will end
I'm gonna bring you here again

Dig up this grave, the old lady said
The thing we need lies here dormant, sleeping with the dead
You understand what you ask of me
Not even death can set your soul free

I cast this curse and you will find
An evil darkness deep inside your vengeful mind
God damn you to hell (to hell) he could not restrain
He already has some, the witch did explain

I'm gonna take you where your body will lie
I'm gonna take you there my friend
I'm gonna show you where your life will end
I'm gonna bring you here again 

Pumpkinhead
Pumpkinhead

I'm gonna take you where your body will lie
I'm gonna take you there my friend
I'm gonna show you where your life will end
This curse I cast, you're Pumpkinhead!

Keep away from Pumpkinhead
Unless you're tired of living
Stay away from Pumpkinhead
Because he is unforgiving


SCARECROW MAN
-------------
How about a little fire, scarecrow?
Ooh...uh!

Hangin' in a field you'll never know I'm out here
I'm telling you people, best beware
I creep into town, I'm hunting my prey
Back on my post by the crack of day

Lock your doors, watch your back, it's true
Turn around...how do you do
I'm the scarecrow man
I'm the scarecrow man

People dying every night
Mutilation's a terrible sight
Look 'round the victims really hard
Scarecrow's death straw calling card 

And I'm coming and killing, it's true
Turn around...how do you do
I'm the scarecrow man
I'm the scarecrow man
Scarecrow man
Scarecrow man

I'm the scarecrow man
I'm the scarecrow man

Hangin' in a field you'll never know I'm out here
I'm telling you people best beware
I creep into town,I'm hunting my prey
Back on my post by the crack of day

I've come to kill you, I will!
I'm gonna get you, be still!
I'm the scarecrow man
I'm the scarecrow man
I'm the scarecrow man
Scarecrow man

I'm the scarecrow man
I'm the scarecrow man
I'm the scarecrow man


DIE MONSTER DIE
---------------
First things first, Ms. Monroe rises from the dead
The henchmen came, knocked down the door to my never, never world 

I hope you die
Die monster die
Die monster die
Die monster die

First things first, we must find out which mirror evil lives
I enter this door, look into the mirrors, I don't recognize this face
It's looking back at me

Die
Die monster die
Die monster die
Die monster die

There's a place where the mirrors don't lie
There's a place where the mirrors don't lie
There's a place where the mirrors don't lie
There's a place where the mirrors don't lie

Ooh oh oh
Woah oh oh
Whoa oh oh

I hope you die
Die monster die
Die monster die
Die monster die

Die             (There's a place where the mirrors don't lie)
Die monster die (There's a place where the mirrors don't lie)
Die monster die (There's a place where the mirrors don't lie)
Die monster die (There's a place where the mirrors don't lie)

Die monster die!


LIVING HELL
-----------
Imprisoned in this world of darkness few have known
A monster lusting blood and the hunger grows
Out on the street, dangers real, the killer's still at large
A trail of death through the sewers to the underground

I feel their fleeting life draw into my bones
Hear the heart that pounds, the blood that flows
Eternity, I damn thee, let me rot into the ground
As the empty veins collapse, cast them down

Living hell (whoah oh oh)
Living hell (whoah oh)
Living hell (whoah oh oh)
I just can't go on...In this living hell

This town has worn thin, everybody knows
Panic in the news and the terror grows
A tunnel full of filth escape into the night
Another hole to dwell in underground

I feel their fleeting life draw into my bones
Hear the heart that pounds, the blood that flows
Eternity, I damn thee, let me rot into the ground
As the empty veins collapse, cast them down
 
Living hell (whoah oh oh)
Living hell (whoah oh)
Living hell (whoah oh oh)
I just can't go on...In this living hell

In this living hell
In this living hell

I feel their fleeting life draw into my bones
Hear the heart that pounds, the blood that flows
Eternity, I damn thee, let me rot into the ground
As the empty veins collapse, cast them down

Living hell (whoah oh oh)
Living hell (whoah oh)
Living hell (whoah oh oh)
I just can't go on...In this living hell!


DESCENDING ANGEL
----------------
Torn from the heavens, they fall from the sky
And walk the streets among mortal men
They hide in shadows, keepers of the night
Mortal life is weak, can't hold back the demons
The blood pours as rain and soon you'll be alone

(Whaaoo) Descending angel, stand by my side
(Whaaoo) We'll face the night, descending angel
(Whaaoo) Guard the gates of Hell just one more night
(Whaaoo) For in the morning...we'll bring the light

Born or created in the image of a god
The heavens fall, no saviour has been sent
No one to guide us, alone we face the night
Mortal life is brief for the rebel angels
They make their final stand and soon you'll be alone

(Whaaoo) Descending angel, stand by my side
(Whaaoo) We'll face the night, descending angel
(Whaaoo) Guard the gates of Hell just one more night
(Whaaoo) Forever ends tonight
Descending angel

Descending angel
(Whaaoo) Descending angel, stand by my side
(Whaaoo) We'll face the night, descending angel
(Whaaoo) Guard the gates of Hell just one more night
(Whaaoo) Ooh, Forever ends tonight

Descending angel
Little rebel angel
Little rebel angel
Little rebel angel
Descending angel!


THEM
----
Man's atomic age is here
Horrifying hordes appear

Exo-Skeleton armored
Exo-Skeleton might
Exo-Skeleton horror
Exo-Skeleton bite

Beware of THEM!
Beware of THEM!

Something wicked this way comes
Creepy crawling giant bugs

Exo-Skeleton armored
Exo-Skeleton might
Exo-Skeleton horror
Exo-Skeleton bite

Beware of THEM!

In the desert sands where they test the bombs came these man-made monsters
They'll try to breed, they'll fly by night
We must destroy these nests of the mutant ants these man-made monsters
Their bodies burn a gruesome sight

Beware of THEM!
Beware of THEM!

Evil is as humans do
Bible prophecy comes true

In the desert sands where they test the bombs came these man-made monsters
They'll try to breed, they'll fly by night
We must destroy these nests of the mutant ants these man-made monsters
Their bodies burn a gruesome sight

In the desert sands where they test the bombs came these man-made monsters
They'll try to breed, they'll fly by night
We must destroy these nests of the mutant ants these man-made monsters
Their bodies burn a gruesome sight

Beware of THEM!
Beware of THEM!
Beware of THEM!
Beware of THEM!
THEM!


FIEND CLUB
----------
Whoa, oh, oh, oh

We won't pretend that this is the end
We're not losers all of the time
We mosh and we fall, we're one and for all
It's just evil all of the time
All of the time

We are the Fiend Club
We are the Fiend Club
We are the Fiend Club
Not you, not you!

You dress so messed up, your hair is too long
But I'm changing it all of the time
We mosh and we fall, we're one and for all
It's just evil all of the time
All of the time
Evil all the time!

We are the Fiend Club
We are the Fiend Club
We are the Fiend Club
Not you, not you!

Evil all the time!
We are the Fiend Club
We are the Fiend Club
We are the Fiend Club
Not you, not you!

We are the Fiend Club
We are the Fiend Club
We are the Fiend Club
Not you, not you!
Not you, not you!

We are the Fiend Club


HUNTING HUMANS
--------------
Upon this threshold of disaster
The birth of the eleventh plague
The fires that burn at night
I begin to doubt the smell of burning flesh will ever fade away

The touch of death is all around us
A thousand corpses block our way
A man-made germ makes almost everyone commit suicide
Just to rise and eat their dead

Night of the Living Dead

We're hunting humans, whoah oh oh oh
We're hunting humans, whoah oh oh oh
We're hunting humans, whoah oooh
We're hunting humans
It's killing time every day

I can't control this eerie feeling
An evil screaming in my head
I don't think I'll last the night, there is no cure for this genocide
Or resurrection of the dead

Night of the Living Dead

We're hunting humans, whoah oh oh oh
We're hunting humans, whoah oh oh oh
We're hunting humans, whoah oooh
We're hunting humans
It's killing time everyday
It's killing time everyday
It's killing time everyday


HELENA
------
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)


KONG UNLEASHED
--------------
(Instrumental)


DEVIL DOLL [Japanese and European CD release only]
----------
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]


1,000,000 YEARS BC [European CD release only]
------------------
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
