Metallica - Battery - Master of Puppets

Lashing out the action, returning the reaction

Weak are ripped and torn away

Hypnotising power, crushing all that cower

Battery is here to stay

[chorus:]

Smashing through the boundaries

Lunacy has found me

Cannot stop the Battery

Pounding out aggression

Turns into obsession

Cannot kill the Battery

Cannot kill the family

Battery is found in me

Battery

Crushing all deceivers, mashing non-believers

never ending potency

Hungry violence seeker, feeding off the weaker

Breeding on insanity

[Chorus]

Circle of Destruction, Hammer comes crushing

Powerhouse of energy

Whipping up a fury, Dominating flurry

We create the Battery

[Chorus]

Back up

Metallica - Master of Puppets - Master of Puppets

End of passion play, crumbling away

I'm your source of self-destruction

Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear

Leading on your deaths construction

[Chorus:]

Taste me you will see

More is all you need

You're dedicated to

How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster

Obey your Master

Your life burns faster

Obey your Master

Master

Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings

Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams

Blinded by me, you can't see a thing

Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream

Master

Master

Just call my name, `cause I'll hear you scream

Master

Master

[End Chorus]

Needlework the way, never you betray

Life of death becoming clearer

Pain monopoly, ritual misery

Chop your breakfast on a mirror

[Chorus]

Master, Master, Where's the dreams that I've been after?

Master, Master, You promised only lies

Laughter, Laughter, All I hear and see is laughter

Laughter, Laughter, laughing at my cries

Hell is worth all that, natural habitat

Just a rhyme without a reason

Never-ending maze, drift on numbered days

Now your life is out of season

[Chorus]

Back up

Metallica - The Thing that Should Not Be - Master of Puppets

Messenger of Fear in sight

Dark deception kills the light

Hybrid children watch the sea

Pray for Father, roaming free

[Chorus:]

Fearless Wretch

Insanity

He watches

Lurking beneath the sea

Great Old One

Forbidden site

He searches

Hunter of the Shadows is rising

Immortal

In madness You dwell

Crawling Chaos, underground

Cult has summoned, twisted sound

Out from ruins once possessed

Fallen city, living death

[Chorus]

Not dead which eternal lie

Stranger aeons Death may die

Drain you of your sanity

Face The Thing That Should Not Be

[Chorus]

Metallica - Welcome Home (Sanitarium) - Master of Puppets

Welcome to where time stands still

No one leaves and no one will

Moon is full, never seems to change

Just labelled mentally deranged

Dream the same thing every night

I see our freedom in my sight

No locked doors, No windows barred

No things to make my brain seem scarred

Sleep my friend and you will see

That dream is my reality

They keep me locked up in this cage

Can't they see it's why my brain says Rage

Sanitarium, leave me be

Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Build my fear of what's out there

And cannot breathe the open air

Whisper things into my brain

Assuring me that I'm insane

They think our heads are in their hands

But violent use brings violent plans

Keep him tied, it makes him well

He's getting better, can't you tell?

No more can they keep us in

Listen, damn it, we will win

They see it right, they see it well

But they think this saves us from our Hell

Sanitarium, leave me be

Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Fear of living on

Natives getting restless now

Mutiny in the air

Got some death to do

Mirror stares back hard

Kill, it's such a friendly word

Seems the only way

For reaching out again.

Metallica - Disposable Heroes - Master of Puppets

Bodies fill the fields I see, hungry heroes end

No one to play soldier now, no one to pretend

Running blind through killing fields, bred to kill them all

Victim of what said should be

A servant `till I fall

[Chorus:]

Soldier boy, made of clay

Now an empty shell

Twenty one, only son

But he served us well

Bred to kill, not to care

Just do as we say

Finished here, Greeting Death

He's yours to take away

Back to the front

You will do what I say, when I say

Back to the front

You will die when I say, you must die

Back to the front

you coward

you servant

you blindman

Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now

Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow

More a man, more stripes you bare, glory seeker trends

Bodies fill the fields I see

The slaughter never ends

[Chorus]

Why, Am I dying?

Kill, have no fear

Lie, live off lying

Hell, Hell is here

I was born for dying

Life planned out before my birth, nothing could I say

Had no chance to see myself, molded day by day

Looking back I realise, nothing have I done

Left to die with only friend

Alone I clench my gun

[Chorus]

Back to the front.

Back up

Metallica - Leper Messiah - Master of Puppets

Spineless from the start, sucked into the part

Circus comes to town, you play the lead clown

Please, please

Spreading his disease, living by his story

Knees, knees

Falling to your knees, suffer for his glory

You will

[Chorus]

Time for lust, time for lie

Time to kiss your life goodbye

Send me money, send me green

Heaven you will meet

Make a contribution

And you'll get a better seat

Bow to Leper Messiah

Marvel at his tricks, need your Sunday fix

Blind devotion came, rotting your brain

Chain, chain

Join the endless chain

Fame, Fame

Infection is the game, stinking drunk with power

We see

[Chorus]

Bow to Leper Messiah

Witchery, weakening

Sees the sheep are gathering

Set the trap, hypnotise

Now you follow

[Chorus]

Lie

Back up

Metallica - Damage, Inc. - Master of Puppets

Dealing out the agony within

Charging hard and no one's gonna give in

Living on your knees, conformity

Or dying on your feet for honesty

Inbred, our bodies work as one

Bloody, but never cry submission

Following our instinct not a trend

Go against the grain until the end

[Chorus:]

Blood will follow blood

Dying time is here

Damage Incorporated

Slamming through, don't fuck with razorback

Stepping out? You'll feel our hell on your back

Blood follows blood and we make sure

Life ain't for you and we're the cure

Honesty is my only excuse

Try to rob us of it, but it's no use

Steamroller action crushing all

Victim is your name and you shall fall

[Chorus]

We chew and spit you out

We laugh, you scream and shout

All flee, with fear you run

You'll know just where we come from

Damage Incorporated

Damage jackals ripping right through you

Sight and smell of this, it gets me goin'

Know just how to get just what we want

Tear it from your soul in nightly hunt

Fuck it all and fucking no regrets

Never happy ending on these dark sets

All's fair for Damage Inc. you see

Step a little closer if you please
