Iron Maiden - 2 Minutes To Midnight | |
Kill for gain or shoot to maim | |
But we don't need a reason | |
The Golden Goose is on the loose | |
And never out of Season. | |
Some blackened pride still burns inside | |
This shell of bloody treason | |
Here's my gun for a barrel of fun | |
For the love of living death | |
The killer's breed or the Deamon's seed, | |
The glamour, the fortune, the pain, | |
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain, | |
But don't you pray for my soul anymore. | |
2 minutes to midnight, | |
The hands that threaten doom. | |
2 minutes to midnight, | |
To kill the unborn in the womb. | |
The blind men shout let the creatures out | |
We'll show the unbelievers, | |
The Napalm screams of human flames | |
Of a prime time Belsen feast...YEAH! | |
As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat | |
and lick the gravy, | |
We oil the jaws of the war machine | |
and feed it with our babies. | |
The body bags and little rags of children torn in two, | |
And the jellied brains of those who remain | |
to put the finger right on you. | |
As the Madmen play on words and make us all | |
dance to their song, | |
To the tune of starving millions | |
to make a better kind of gun. | |
Midnight | |
Midnight...all night... |
Iron Maiden 2 Minutes To Midnight | |
Kill for gain or shoot to maim | |
But we don t need a reason | |
The Golden Goose is on the loose | |
And never out of Season. | |
Some blackened pride still burns inside | |
This shell of bloody treason | |
Here s my gun for a barrel of fun | |
For the love of living death | |
The killer s breed or the Deamon s seed, | |
The glamour, the fortune, the pain, | |
Go to war again, blood is freedom s stain, | |
But don t you pray for my soul anymore. | |
2 minutes to midnight, | |
The hands that threaten doom. | |
2 minutes to midnight, | |
To kill the unborn in the womb. | |
The blind men shout let the creatures out | |
We ll show the unbelievers, | |
The Napalm screams of human flames | |
Of a prime time Belsen feast... YEAH! | |
As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat | |
and lick the gravy, | |
We oil the jaws of the war machine | |
and feed it with our babies. | |
The body bags and little rags of children torn in two, | |
And the jellied brains of those who remain | |
to put the finger right on you. | |
As the Madmen play on words and make us all | |
