No life till leather
We are gonna kick some ass tonight
We got the metal madness
When our fans start screaming
It's right well alright
When we start to rock
We never want to stop again

Hit the lights
Hit the lights
Hit the lights

You know our fans are insane
We are gonna blow this place away
With volume higher
Than anything today the only way
When we start to rock
We never want to stop again

Hit the lights
Hit the lights
Hit the lights

With all our screaming
We are gonna rip right through your brain
We got the lethal power
It is causing you sweet pain Oh sweet pain
When we start to rock
We never want to stop again

Hit the lights
Hit the lights
Hit the lights

    General Comment:This Song Kicks Ass From The Build-Up Jamming Intro All The Way To Kirk's Finishing Touches On The Kick-Ass Solo. I Agree The Lyrics Aren't Ass Talented As Some Other Metallica Songs, But This Song Certaintly Defines The Metal In Metallica. One Of My Favorites Even To This Day. 10/10

    General Comment:To Kill em All:

    So, you're calling ma mother, ma stepfather, ma chavvy little brother, ma even chavvier little sister, ma grandmothers, basically all of ma mates pussies??

    Never insult them. U know what, you're the biggest pussy ive ever talked to.

    Metallica rule, but Master Of Puppets is their best album. Track one, Battery. An absoloute thrashing classic!
