Look out honey it’s a strobe light dance Knee high boots and hangin’ in a cage Devilock woman gotta whip and chain Devilock woman gonna spit in your face Devilock woman gonna dance like a snake oh yeah! Here she comes! She drinks from a jar buried in a swamp A hard rockin’, head knockin’, bride of a ghoul Devilock woman gonna dance like a snake Devilock woman gonna open the gates Devilock woman gotta whip and chain oh yeah! Open up! She’s got blood on her tongue and fire in her eyes Hell bendin’, sidewindin’, face huggin’ thighs Devilock woman gonna dance like a snake Devilock woman gonna open the gates Devilock woman gonna spit in your face oh yeah! Come out of your skin! Devilock woman gonna dance like a snake Devilock woman gotta whip and chain Devilock woman gonna open the gates oh yeah!

Riders of the night Take the town - from god Masks of men - unknown Rising - from the grave Blood - runs cold In the shadow of the hanging tree Strangers - of the gun Bring darkness - to the land

Rattlesnake 03:25
Coiled in the pit for a steel line tension strike Rattle of a tail, warning of a poisonous bite! Watch where you step and keep a wary eye – For the Rattlesnake! Snake burning gaze, looking to paralyze A serpent hiss and a fire in its eyes! Crawl out of its skin and shadow of the night – Of the Rattlesnake! Castanet music and a twisted dance of death Frozen in time and not a shallow breath Snake eyes locked and ready to take you out – It’s the Rattlesnake! Twist… Dance… Strike… Hiss… Spit… Bite… Watch where you step and keep a wary eye – For the Rattlesnake!

In the Autumn moon’s eerie glow Shadows long and dark, they grow Skin begins to swell and crawl Eyes on fire, and hands to claws In the light of the witches' moon In the ghoulish blue-white glow Where the spirits sing and play In the light of the witches' moon Stalking from the edge of the night Howling at the witches' moon Supernatural transformation Cursed lycanthropic wound In the light of the witches' moon In the ghoulish blue-white glow Where the spirits sing and play In the light of the witches' moon In the light of the witches' moon In the ghoulish blue-white glow Where the spirits sing and play In the light of the witches' moon In the light of the witches' moon In the light of the witches' moon

It's a war, that we're declaring It's a war, that we're preparing for And there's nothing that you can do There's nothing that you can do It's a war, what are those marks all over your face It's a war, you've become a nuclear race And there's nothing that you can do There's nothing that you can do It's a war, that we're declaring It's a war, that we're preparing for And there's nothing that you can do There's nothing that you can do

Monster 03:17
Stomping with a sound of thunder Chomping on military armor Clawing from a hot volcano Fire breathing lizard monster Monster walking on the nation Feeding on the population ROAR! Invasion of a primeval monster Marching rampage of destruction Burning with a breath of hell fire Fire breathing lizard monster Monster walking on the nation Feeding on the population ROAR! Shaking with violent tremors Crushing the world in its path Greenlight glows radioactive Fire breathing lizard monster Monster walking on the nation Feeding on the population ROAR! Monster walking on the nation Feeding on the population Monster! Monster!
