Thor - Keep The Dogs Away lyrics



Tracks



01. Keep The Dogs Away

We can sleep and we can dream
Hopin' that the time will come
When evil cries attack, attack
Devil dogs are on the run
Stand by the walls, defend the halls

You got to keep the dogs away
You got to keep the dogs at bay
You got to keep the dogs away
You got to keep the dogs at bay
You got to keep the dogs away
You got to keep the dogs at bay
You got to keep the dogs away
Keep the dogs, keep the dogs, keep the dogs

And we can ride and we can bleed
Waitin' for the break of dawn
When evil cries back to the grave
Devil dogs are on the run
Hold up your head, summon the dead

You got to keep the dogs away
You got to keep the dogs at bay
You got to keep the dogs away
You got to keep the dogs at bay
You got to keep the dogs away
You got to keep the dogs at bay
You got to keep the dogs away
Keep the dogs, keep the dogs, keep the dogs
Keep the dogs, keep the dogs, keep the dogs

02. Sleeping Giant

You are like straws against the wind
Picks you up and throws you down again
You are children reaching higher
Playing with forbidden fire

Let the sleeping giant sleep
Slumber in a dream so deep
If you wake him you don't know
Where sleeping giant thoughts may go

Let the sleeping giant sleep
Locked up in his castle keep
Out of sight but not control
Let's pray that giant dreams will hold

You are like straws against the wind
Picks you up and throws you down again
You are children reaching higher
Playing with forbidden fire
Watch out, watch out

Let the sleeping giant sleep
Slumber in a dream so deep
All the strength wound in his arms
Could crush the light out of the stars
Crush the light out of the stars
Crush the light out of the stars
Crush the light out of the stars

Let the sleeping giant sleep
Slumber in a dream so deep
If you wake him you don't know
Where sleeping giant thoughts may go

Let the sleeping giant sleep
Locked up in his castle keep
Out of sight but not control
Let's pray that giant dreams will hold

03. Catch A Tiger

Well you know
I'll put the fear in anyone
Yeah you know
Catch a tiger on the run

You have bad dreams about night scenes
I can see the scars you bear
Well that's over, things are better
Can't you feel me now
Can't you feel me now

Well you know
I'd stop the tide for you
Yeah you know
Bend the trees and sky for you

Well you know
Sock the heat out of the sun
Yeah you know
Catch a tiger on the run

Well you know
How much I thirst for you
Yeah you know
I'd do my very worst for you

Well you know
I'll put the fear in anyone
Yeah you know
Catch a tiger on the run

Catch a tiger, catch a tiger
Catch a tiger, catch a tiger, oh

Well you know
I'd stop the tide for you
Yeah you know
Bend the trees and sky for you

Well you know
Sock the heat out of the sun
Yeah you know
Catch a tiger on the run

Well you know
How much I thirst for you
Yeah you know
I'd do my very worst for you

Well you know
I'll put the fear in anyone
Yeah you know
Catch a tiger on the run

04. I'm So Proud

I'm so proud, I'm so proud
I'm so proud to be the man I am
I'm so proud, I'm so proud
I'm so proud to be the man I am

Nobody pushes my face in the sand
No one decides and squeezes my hand
I'm always coiled like a powerful spring
New motor drive me, I got things that I need

I'm so proud, I'm so proud
I'm so proud to be the man I am
I'm so proud, I'm so proud
I'm so proud to be the man I am

There ain't no mountain that I can't climb
There ain't no answer that I can't find
I am the king of the neighborhood
I got the body and I got the goods

I'm so proud, I'm so proud
I'm so proud to be the man I am
I'm so proud, I'm so proud
I'm so proud to be the man I am

05. Tell Me Lies

Tell me that I'm big and strong
And make me feel so good
Tell me I can do no wrong
Even if I could

Every time I turn around
You catch me by surprise
May be crazy but one thing I've found
I like the way you tell me lies

Tell me lies, you know it's so easy
Tell me lies, part of the game
Tell me lies, baitin' and teasin' me
Tell me lies, over and over and over again

Ask me how I see myself
Say I'm just like you
I lie to me like no one else
'Cause that's what we all do

It's just the icing on the cake
To help me get through life
There is no end to what I could take
I like the way you tell me lies

Tell me lies, you know it's so easy
Tell me lies, part of the game
Tell me lies, baitin' and teasin' me
Tell me lies, over and over and over again

Now that you got it it's understood
La la la
La la la lies
Make me feel so goddamn good

Tell me lies, you know it's so easy
Tell me lies, part of the game
Tell me lies, baitin' and teasin' me
Tell me lies, over and over and over again

Tell me lies, you know it's so easy
Tell me lies, part of the game
Tell me lies, baitin' and teasin' me
Tell me lies, over and over and over again

Tell me lies, you know it's so easy
Tell me lies, part of the game
Tell me lies, baitin' and teasin' me
Tell me lies, over and over and over again

06. Military Matters

I think we're headin' for the risin' storm
Show you sights you've never seen before
They're gettin' ready for the third world war
As they ride ride ride ride

On the wings of the
Ride ride ride ride
On the wings of the
Ride ride ride ride
On the wings of the
Ride ride ride ride

There's talk of military matters
I can hear that in the wind
It's much too hot to handle
As the rumble starts again

I think we're headin' for the risin' storm
Show you sights you've never seen before
They're gettin' ready for the third world war
As they ride ride ride ride

On the wings of the
Ride ride ride ride
On the wings of the
Ride ride ride ride
On the wings of the
Ride ride ride ride

When the north comes bleeding to the south
And the east creeps to the west
Underdog beats overdog
And chaos takes the rest

I think we're headin' for the risin' storm
Show you sights you've never seen before
They're gettin' ready for the third world war
As they ride ride ride ride

07. Superhero

We're livin' in a world of the super hero
Everybody catch the show
And when the film is done
The hero passes on
And I wonder, yes I wonder
Where the used up heroes go

Captain Kirk, he flew the Enterprise
Throughout the interstellar skies
And I admired his claim to fame
But it's sad to see him back again
'Cause now he gets his jollies
From a supermarket chain

We're livin' in a world of the super hero
Everybody catch the show
And when the film is done
The hero passes on
And I wonder, yes I wonder
Where the used up heroes go

Lone Ranger was a friend of mine
It's a pity that he missed his prime
Superman, he went insane
He couldn't take this crazy game
And now he's in a gutter
With a bullet in his brain

I'm livin' in a world of the super hero
Everybody can't you see
That when my time is done
I'll go marching on
And I wonder, yes I wonder
What becomes of me, what becomes of me
What becomes of me now, what becomes of me

08. Wasted

What do you say
Oh when the world's gone crazy
How can you cope
If you never win

What do you feel
When your head is breakin'
Sometimes I feel that I'm wasted
Sometimes I feel that I'm wasted

Sometimes I feel, oh wasted, wasted

Saturday usually ends the same way
Runnin' through the night
Gettin' caught makes it work out okay
When things are lookin' tight
We always stop and fight

What do you say
Oh when the world's gone crazy
How can you cope
If you never win

What do you feel
When your head is breakin'
Sometimes I feel that I'm wasted
Sometimes I feel that I'm wasted
Sometimes I feel wasted, wasted, wasted

Sunday always starts the same way
Tryin' to shake the night
If I was smart I'd get my head changed
When I'm a little tight
I can't resist a fight

What do you say
Oh when the world's gone crazy
How can you cope
If you never win

What do you feel
When your head is breakin'
Sometimes I feel that I'm wasted
Sometimes I feel that I'm wasted
Sometimes I feel wasted, wasted, wasted

What do you say
Oh when the world's gone crazy
How can you cope
If you never win

What do you feel
When your head is breakin'
Sometimes I feel that I'm wasted
Sometimes I feel that I'm wasted

What do you say
Oh when the world's gone crazy
How can you cope
If you never win

What do you feel
When your head is breakin'
Sometimes I feel that I'm wasted

09. Rosie

Got a woman with a heart like a fireball
Burns me up at night
When she goes for broke it ain't no joke, yeah
Can't shut out her light
Can't shut out her light

Got a woman built like an Amazon
She made the football team
She's big and she's proud and especially loud
Rubs me till I'm raw
Rubs me till I'm raw

Rosie, Rosie, Rosie
Someday she'll be the queen of the U.S.A.
Hey, someday she'll be the queen, hey hey hey

Got a woman moves like a hurricane
Blow you clean away
She kicks and she fights then she always bites
'Cause that's her lovin' way
'Cause that's her lovin' way

Got a woman sweet as a mountain stream
Heaven's in her eyes
She never tires of those strange desires
She rubs me till I'm raw
Rubs me till I'm raw

Rosie, Rosie, Rosie
Someday she'll be the queen of the U.S.A.
Hey, someday she'll be the queen, hey hey hey
Someday she'll be the queen of the U.S.A.
Hey, someday she'll be the queen

10. Thunder

The iron door that never swings
Guards the hall where hammers sing
Torches blaze with a fiery smoke
Shroud the home of the thunderbolts

Great machines that groan and bend
Bodies black and bead with sweat
And legions of the night march by
Beneath the lightning clouded sky

And all around you hear the sound
Of thunder, thunder, thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder, thunder, thunder

Voices chant in ancient rhymes
Written on the edge of time
Words of wisdom, tales of doom
Bringing soon unearthly tunes

Shadows chained lie at our side
Strain for the call to ride
And as the mist begins to clear
The bridge to glory soon appears

And all around you hear the sound
Of thunder, thunder, thunder, thunder
Thunder, thunder, thunder, thunder
