Accept - Restless And Wild Album Lyrics

---

Fast As A Shark

Fog in the streets
A church clock beats
Midnight - darkness all around

You better beware
You better take care
Be prepared for the shock

The time has come
And he's the one
Who's breathing down your neck

Coming from behind
Now it's your time
A loser will die

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's on the attack

Surprise attack
Coming from the back
An expert of the deadly knack

Just take care
Just beware
Be prepared for the fight

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's on the attack

Watch out - watch out

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's on the attack

Fast as a shark he'll cut out of the dark
He's a killer - he'll rip out your heart
On a one way track and you're not coming back
'cause the killer's
'cause the killer's
'cause the killer's on the attack

Restless And Wild

They're running wild
They're on a down hill ride
Like a rebel they look for more
Too young to die

Now you know your dreams are useless
And there 're lies You'll never tell

'cause you're so
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild

Star born lovers
Angels in the night on a highway
They don't look back
Everybody's lost the way - yeah

The little girl wants to be an actress
Young boys are easy riders

They live so
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild

Stay down - time will roll on
How do you feel when the night is gone
Stay down - time will come 'round
You are the man made for highway life
For the highway life

City lights moving on
No tomorrows - no destinations
Like a wheel turning on and on
You're a man born to run

Every world that you have seen was senseless
Keep moving on there's no other way

Cause you're so

Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild
Restless - restless and wild

Ahead Of The Pack

You gotta take it easy
You gotta live your life
Yesterday's heroes
They are born to die

The people always blame you
It don't matter what they say
You've got your own freedom
You've gotta go your way

Get up and roll on

'cause there is no future
And there'll be no past
Live for today
The going is going fast

Get up and roll on
Get up and go on
The going's going fast

You are
Ahead of the pack
Ahead of the pack
Never look back
'cause you're ahead
Ahead of the pack

Don't you kill the feelings
Live to your heart
You're miles away
But you know where to start

Now you've got the muscle
To knock out a lie
'cause you're ahead of the pack
No one will spit in your eye

Get up and roll on
Get up and go on
The going's going fast

You are
Ahead of the pack
Ahead of the pack
Never look back
'cause you're ahead
Ahead of the pack

Ahead of the pack
Ahead of the pack
Never look back
Ahead of the pack

Ahead of the pack
Never look back
Ahead of the pack

Ahead of the pack

Shake Your Heads

See the world around you
Deep, dark and grey
Grieving heartbreaks all your life
Seems to be the way

Wars of aggression
Mankind's favourite game
A press on the button
A world in flames

Every night and every day
Frustrations in your heart
Like a one way ticket
No return - you're torn apart

Shake your heads 'till your necks are breaking
Shake your heads - cry out as loud as you can
Shake your heads 'till your brains are burning
Shake Your heads - cry out as loud as you can

Play the easy rider - ride fast and free riding
The cost of living don't mean much to me

Your life is a replay
So forget the games you loose
We've got a message
That was made for you

Some say yes and some say no
Understanding is the deal
Come hear the music
It's a brand new feel

Shake your heads 'till your necks are breaking
Shake your heads - cry out as loud as you can
Shake your heads 'till your brains are burning
Shake your heads - cry out as loud as you can

Shake your heads 'till your necks are breaking
Shake your heads - cry out as loud as you can
Shake your heads 'till your brains are burning
Shake your heads - cry out as loud as you can

Shake Your heads, ...

Neon Nights

When the day is done
The night rolls in
Lonely lovers come alive

Like a heartbeat
In a world of sin
Cruising around hungry eyes

Like a midnight train
Going nowhere
Fading dreams of the city

Penthouse beds
Sweet love affairs
Crimes of passion for the pretty

Man in blue on his beat
Unseen faces in the streets

Neon nights - neon nights - endless flame
Neon nights - neon nights - never change
Neon nights - neon nights - endless flame
Neon nights - neon nights

Red eye whisky
And lady luck
Have always been good friends

Their love is pain
The same old stuff
Always alone in the end

Could they be me and you
Watching how the nights move

Neon nights - neon nights - endless flame
Neon nights - neon nights - never change
Neon nights - neon nights - endless flame
Neon nights - neon nights

Neon nights - neon nights - endless flame
Neon nights - neon nights - never change
Neon nights - neon nights - endless flame
Neon nights - neon nights

Neon nights, ...

Get Ready

I say come on
Can you stand the heat
You feel the flames
Burning in the streets

Get it on - get it on

The stars of heaven
Will fall today
You'll know the devil you know
Had his day

Hell what a night - get ready
Hell what a night - hey
Take your pick - get the kick
It's gonna be hell tonight

Alright

A lightning blitz
Comes raging down
You go running
For higher ground

Get it on - get it on

Hear me tonight
Your blood runs cold
A killer guitar
Screams in your soul

Hell what a night - get ready
Hell what a night - hey
Take your pick - get the kick
It's gonna be hell tonight - yeah

Get it on - get it on
Get it on - get it on
It's coming on

Hell what a night - get ready
Hell what a night - hey
Take your pick - get the kick
It's gonna be hell tonight

Hell what a night - get ready
Hell what a night - hey
Take your pick - get the kick
It's gonna be hell tonight
It's gonna be hell tonight

Demon's Night

Sparks - the eyes of fire
Flying high in the night
Storms - the arms of evil
It's gonna take your life

You know the bats crying
Hell bent for the death
Rain - the tears of the devil
Gonna lay you to rest

Rolling a thunder - a curse on that night
We've got your number - no use to hide

You - you've lost your freedom
To the masters of force
Ride on the waves of magic
Dark nights will be your course

Rolling a thunder - a curse on that night
We've got your number - no use to hide

Demon's night - no way out
Demon's night - the angels fight
Demon's night - cries of pain
Demon's night
Demon's night - a night to die

Lights - blinding your mind
Like a flash out of hell
Sounds - that no one will hear
It's a demon's bell

Look in the face of horror
It's a dangerous night
Scream for your mother's children
You've lost your human right

Rolling a thunder - a curse on that night
We've got your number - no use to hide

Demon's night - no way out
Demon's night - the angels fight
Demon's night - cries of pain
Demon's night
Demon's night - a night to die

Rolling a thunder - a curse on that night
We've got your number - no use to hide

Demon's night - no way out
Demon's night - the angels fight
Demon's night - cries of pain
Demon's night

A night to die

Flash Rockin' Man

They all know your name
They know you're a star
You've been around for ever
And you know who you are

They buy all your records
They come to the gigs
They wanna see you rock'n'roll

Your life is full of action
Your life is full of sound
A Rock'n'Roll magic man
Stamp your feet big man in town

You know you're an idol
The leader of the gang
A juvenile's hero

Turn on the lights
There's no end in sight

Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man

They wanna feel your volume
They wanna live your life
They wanna be like you
Every day and every night

You're walking down the alleys
You're a famous man
Immortal so damn holy

Turn on the lights
Show us tonight - yes tonight

Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man

You've been behind the scenes
And the fools laughed so loud
You are a well known man
But alone I n the crowd

Tormented and mistreated
Deal everyday
A servant of the yes-men
If the people knew what would they say

You know what it's like
So turn off the lights

Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man
Flash rockin' man

Don't Go Stealing My Soul Away

Yeah, if love was money
I would always pay the price
While a million dollars
Will never ever change my life

It's an endless highway
The whisky bars and one-night stands
Lost in a cheap hotel
You know a woman needs a man

Can't you see it's all for you, yeah

Don't go stealing my soul away
I'm giving it to you
Don't go stealing my soul away
I'm living just for you, for you
Alright

So every song I sing
Comes from a lonely heart on stage
But they're still together
More than a thousand miles away

Can't you feel my love for you

Don't go stealing my soul away
I'm giving it to you
Don't go stealing my soul away
I'm living just for you, for you

Don't go stealing my soul away
I'm giving it to you
Don't go stealing my soul away
I'm living just for you

Don't go stealing my soul away
I'm giving it to you
Don't go stealing my soul away
I'm living just for you

Living just in you

Princess Of The Dawn

There's rain on the mountain
A white frost on the moors
It's an epoch of eternity
Waters touch the holy shore

It's a land of mystery
The world of unseen eyes
You can feel the shadow of a princess
She waits for you inside

The guardians of God play the pawns
Beg for mercy - hail the queen
Princess of the Dawn

In the war of the dragons
Young blood ran it's course
They fell to his blade
The knight Iron Horse

A forgotten priest
Disappearing in the haze
A chamber of vestal virgins
Twilight is her slave

The Wizard of Oz moved the pawns
Life for Satan - dust to dust
Princess of the Dawn

On the day of the testament
The seventh moon was raging fire
Heaven cried for the sacrifice
The midnight sun was rising higher

The Beauty and the Beast
Lies in her royal crypt
Her kiss is bitter sweet
Death upon her lips

The Holy Grail held the pawns
Kings and bishops bow to grace
Princess of the Dawn

The guardians of God play the pawns
Beg for mercy - hail the queen
Princess of the Dawn

A new day dawns for heaven and earth
A first sunbeam is killing the night
Once upon a time for ever more
The gloom with the spirit of that Lady in White

Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
Princess - Princess - Princess of the Dawn
