Overkill
All Over but the Shouting
[Verse 1]
Once upon a time
When you had us all in line
Thought that we would never learn
The word out on the street
Was you never felt the heat
Even when the fires burned
Then the dogs of war
Barking at your door
Is it what it's all about?
So, we broke the deal
It's how it made us feel
Drummer started on the shout
On the shout, on the shout

[Pre-Chorus]
Heard a thousand drummers
On a solitary light
Heat of a thousand summers
Explode into the night
They hid behind the curtains
Their faces were concealed
A voice above the ashes screamed...
"I want to make a deal
I want to make a deal
I want to make a deal"
[Chorus]
Hell raising, drums blazing
All over but the shouting now
Hell raising, drums blazing
Careful what you wish for
You may get it now
Hell raising, drums blazing
All over but the shouting now

[Verse 2]
The look upon your face
When we blew it into space
And let the pieces fall about
Destruction on the ground
The heart of freedom found
In a voice could only shout
The pain would go away
The pride inside would stay
The blood is dripping, you're alive
The ones that stood and fell
Were all remembered well
The cross of an animal
Animal, animal five

[Pre-Chorus]
Heard a thousand drummers
On a solitary light
Heat of a thousand summers
Explode into the night
They hid behind the curtains
Their faces were concealed
A voice above the ashes screamed...
"I want to make a deal
I want to make a deal
I'm back on my heels"
[Chorus]
Hell raising, drums blazing
All over but the shouting now
Hell raising, drums blazing
Careful what you wish for
You may get it now
Hell raising, drums blazing
All over but the shouting now

[Bridge 1]
Cold calculation got them fall into line
Annihilation got them working the shine
They scream and shout
All over but the

[Bridge 2]
Beat generation in a room full of war
Evacuation as the stones hit the door
They want out
All over but the shout

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
So, once upon a time
When we lit the line
Thought that we would never learn
The word out on the street
They melted in the heat
Even when the fires burned
Then the dogs of war
Scratching at your door
Is it what it's all about?
So, we broke the deal
So, we broke the deal
Drummer started on the shout
[Pre-Chorus]
Heard a thousand drummers
On a solitary light
Heat of a thousand summers
Explode into the night
They hid behind the curtains
Their faces were concealed
A voice above the ashes screamed...
"I want to make a deal
I want to make a deal
I'm back on my heels
I want to make a deal"

[Chorus]
Hell raising, drums blazing
All over but the shouting now
Hell raising, drums blazing
Careful what you wish for
You may get it now
Hell raising, drums blazing
All over but the shouting now

[Outro]
"I want to make a deal"
