The Book of Heavy Metal (March of the Metallians)

I'd sign - a contract with the devil

I've tried - for so very long

I'd die - to become immortal

that's why I sing this song

Am I a wannabe? - have I no dignity.

I'd give up all my life.. to be

In the book of heavy metal.. METAAAAL!

In life - I have no religion

besides the heavy metal gods

wear nothing but black skin tight leather

My skin's clad with metal studs

Am I a wannabe? - have I no dignity.

I give up all my life to be..

In the book of heavy metal..METAAAAL!

In the book of heavy metal

Some twenty years ago, the gods put down their feet,

So firmly in to the ground that no man of sword nor pen,

could ever change the rules upon which

The very fundament of metal was made.

Read all about it, in the book of heavy metal

Read all about it, in the manual

Read all about it, in the book of heavy metal

Read all about it

Don't need no flashy house, no car or ugly wife

the only thing I want, is what my parents don't

need no widescreen TV, No, in all honesty

the only thing I want to be (to be or not to be)

In the book of heavy metal - In life - METAAAAL!

In the book of heavy metal - to death - AMETAAAAL!

I'd die - to become immortal

That's why I play the guitar
