Where were you when it happened? |
|
Where could you be found? |
|
Were you at the front of the stage |
|
Or in the underground? |
|
From S.F out to |
|
Old BritNew |
|
York to L. |
|
AThe world of metal changed forever |
|
Back in the day |
|
Well that was back in the day |
|
And if you weren't there |
|
It doesn't matter anyway |
|
Because you wouldn't understand |
|
Live to die, die to play |
|
Every day and place |
|
Leave a path of metal across |
|
A world from stage to stage |
|
Well, that was back in the day |
|
And if you weren't there |
|
It doesn't matter anyway |
|
Because you wouldn't understand |
|
In denim and leather |
|
We were a one for all all for one force |
|
Knocked rock 'n' roll on it's ass |
|
And put metal on the course |
|
Thrash, thrash, thrash, thrash |
|
Back in the day |
|
If you weren't there |
|
It doesn't matter' |
|
Cause you wouldn't understand |
|
This is our way of life |
|
A life that was born free |
|
To follow orders how to live |
|
Was never meant to be |
|
Ah ah oh oh oh |
|
Hints of thunder, seeds of lightning |
|
The power hits the stage |
|
The music was exciting |
|
The mania raged |
|
Ah ah oh oh oh |
|
We all had a fever |
|
Our ears started to ring |
|
Feeding this wildfire |
|
Consuming everything |
|
Ah ah oh oh oh |
|
Metal's king back then |
|
And still is to this day |
|
Others imitate or challenge |
|
But it never goes away |
|
Ah ah oh oh ohh |
