It's time for a motorhead song lyric post

[sasquatch]

Because we haven't had one in a while. Here's the haunting lyrics to a new tune of their's.

"God was never on your side"


When the stars fall down on me,
And the sun refuse to shine,
Then may the shackles be undone,
And all the old words, cease to rhyme.
If the skies, turn into stone,
It will matter not at all,
For there is no heaven in the sky,
Hell does not wait for our downfall,

Let the voice of reason shine,
Let the pious vanish for all times,
God´s face is, hidden, all unseen,
You can´t ask him what it all means
He was never on your side,
God was never on your side
Let right or wrong, alone decide,
God was never on your side.

See the ten thousand ministries,
See the holy righteous dogs,
They claim to heal
but all they do is steal,
Abuse your faith, cheal & rob.
If god is wise, why is he still,
When these false prophets
call him friends,
Why is he silent, is he blind,
Will he see nothing in the end,

Let the sword of reason shine,
Let us be free of prayer & shrine
God´s face is hidden, turned away
He never has a word to say
He was never on your side
God was never on your side
Let right or wrong, alone decide,
God was never on your side.
(No, No, No)

He was never on your side,
God was never on your side
Never, Never, Never, Never,
Never on your side,
God was never on your side,
Never on your side.

1. Haunting Lyrics

and there's a stinging political message for the fundies of all stripes who think God is on their side!

2. I think it was written ESPEACILLY for them!

Lemmy see's what's happening in the US, and I think that's why he wrote the song.

3. You;re playing tricks, babe, and that's a fact....

Your magic circle ain't where it's at

One moment you were here, and then you disappeared
This ain't the first time that I've caught your act


Nothing up my sleeve, babe
Watch out, watch out
Magic's what you need, babe
Just like that.

You know your slight of hand is messing up my life
Maybe this time babe you're gonna get it right
One moment I was there, now just an empty chair
This ain't the first time you've shout out my lights



Saw me in half babe, and that's quite a trick
You make me laugh babe, you make me sick
I'm gone but now you lack the spell to bring me back
This ain't the first time I've seen your magic slip

4. I can't even think about this one without getting all moist-eyed...

16 years old when I went to war,
To fight for a land fit for heroes,

God on my side,and a gun in my hand,
Counting my days down to zero,

And I marched and I fought and I bled
And I died & I never did get any older,

But I knew at the time, That a year in the line,
Is a long enough life for a soldier,

We all volunteered,
And we wrote down our names,
And we added two years to our ages,

Eager for life and ahead of the game,
Ready for history's pages,

And we fought and we brawled
And we whored 'til we stood,
Ten thousand shoulder to shoulder,

A thirst for the Hun,
We were food for the gun,and that's
What you are when you're soldiers,

I heard my friend cry,
And he sank to his knees,coughing blood
As he screamed for his mother

And I fell by his side,
And that's how we died,
Clinging like kids to each other,

And I lay in the mud
And the guts and the blood,
And I wept as his body grew colder,

And I called for my mother
And she never came,
Though it wasn't my fault
And I wasn't to blame,

The day not half over
And ten thousand slain,
And now there's nobody remembers our names
And that's how it is for a soldier

[sasquatch]

5. Oh that is a great one

Many Americans don't know alot about WWI, if they did they'd understand why Europeans aren't as Nationalistic as us.

6. Kick

:kick:

[CanuckAmok]

7. No need for a kick......

Ain't a hope in hell,
Nothing's gonna bring us down,
The way we fly,
Five miles off the ground,
Because we shoot to kill,
And you know we always will,
It's a Bomber

Scream a thousand miles,
Feel the black death rising moan,
Firestorm coming closer,
Napalm to the bone,
Because, you know we do it right,
A mission every night,
It's a Bomber

No night fighter,
Gonna stop us getting through,
The sirens make you shiver,
You bet my aim is true,
Because, you know we aim to please,
Bring you to your knees,
It's a Bomber



He rides a road, that don't have no end,
An open highway, without any bends,
Tramp and his stallion, alone in a dream,
Proud in his colours, as the chromium gleams,
On Iron Horse he flies, on Iron Horse he gladly dies,
Iron Horse his wife, Iron Horse his life

He lives his life, he's living it fast,
Don't try to hide, when the dice have been cast,
He rides a whirlwind, that cuts to the bone,
Loaded forever, and righteously stoned,
On Iron Horse he flies, on Iron Horse he gladly dies,
Iron Horse his wife, Iron Horse his life
Yeah, slide it to me!

One day one day, they'll go for the sun,
Together they'll slide, on the eternal run,
Wasted forever, on speed bikes and booze,
Yeah tramp and the brothers, all born to lose,
On Iron Horse he flies, on Iron Horse he gladly dies,
Iron Horse his wife, Iron Horse his life.



I am the one, Orgasmatron, the outstretched grasping hand
My image is of agony, my servants rape the land
Obsequious and arrogant, clandestine and vain
Two thousand years of misery, of torture in my name
Hypocrisy made paramount, paranoia the law
My name is called religion, sadistic, sacred whore.

I twist the truth, I rule the world, my crown is called deceit
I am the emperor of lies, you grovel at my feet
I rob you and I slaughter you, your downfall is my gain
And still you play the sycophant and revel in my pain
And all my promises are lies, all my love is hate
I am the politician, and I decide your fate

I march before a martyred world, an army for the fight
I speak of great heroic days, of victory and might
I hold a banner drenched in blood, I urge you to be brave
I lead you to your destiny, I lead you to your grave
Pour bones will build my palaces, your eyes will stud my crown
For I am Mars, the god of war, and I will cut you down
