IRON MAIDEN

PROWLERIron Maiden inicios

(Harris)

Walking through the city, looking oh so pretty
I’ve just got to find my way
See the ladies flashing. All there legs and lashes
I’ve just got to find my way

Well you see me crawling through the bushes with it open wide
What you seeing girl?
Can’t you believe that feeling, can’t you believe it
Can’t you believe your eyes?
It’s the real thing girl

Got me feeling myself and reeling around
Got me talking but feel like walking around
Got me feeling myself and reeling a…
Got me talking but nothing’s with me…
Got me feeling myself and reeling around

 

REMEMBER TOMORROW

(Harris/Di`anno)

Unchain the colours before my eyes
Yesterday’s sorrows, tomorrow’s white lies
Scan the horizon, the clouds take me higher
I shall return from out of fire

Tears for rememberance, and tears for joy
Tears for somebody and this lonely boy
Out in the madness, the all seeing eye
Flickers above us, to light up the sky

Unchain the colours before my eyes
Yesterday’s sorrows, tomorrow’s white lies
Scan the horizon, the clouds take me higher
I shall return from out of fire

 

RUNNING FREE

(Harris/Di`Anno)

Just sixteen a pickup truck
Out of money and out of luck
I’ve got no place to call my own
Hit the gas and here I go

I’m Running Free, yeah, I’m Running Free
I’m Running Free, yeah, I’m Running Free

Spend the night in an L.A. jail
Listen to the sirens wail
But they ain’t got a thing on me
I’m running wild I’m Running free

I’m Running Free, yeah, I’m Running Free
I’m Running Free, yeah, I’m Running Free

Pulled her at the Bottle Top
whisky dancing disco hop
And all the boys are after me
And that’s the way it’s gonna be

I’m Running Free, yeah, I’m Running Free
I’m Running Free, yeah, I’m Running Free

 

PHANTOM OF THE OPERA

(Harris)

I’ve been looking so long for you now, you won’t get away from my grasp
You’ve been living so long in hiding. Hiding behind that false mask

You know and I know that you ain’t got that long to last
Your looks and feelings are just the remains of your past

Standing in the wings there, you wait for the curtain to fall
Knowing the terror and holding you have on us all

I know that you’re gonna scratch me and maim me and maul
You know I’m helpless from your mesmerising cat call

Keep your distance, walk away don’t take his bait
Don’t you stray don’t fade away
Watch your step, he’s out to get you
Come what may
Don’t you stray, don’t fade away

I’m running and hiding, in my dreams you’re always there
You’re the Phantom of the Opera, you’re the devil you’re just out to scare

You damaged my mind and my soul just floats through the air
You haunt me, you taunt me, you torture me back at your lair

 

TRANSYLVANIA

(Harris)

Instrumental

 

STRANGE WORLD

(Harris)

The only place where you can dream, living here is not what it seems
Ship of white light in the sky, nobody there to reason why
Here I am, I’m not really there, smiling faces ever so rare
A let’s walk in deepest space, living here just isn’t the place

Stalks of light come from the ground, when I cry there isn’t a sound
All my feelings cannot be held, I’m happy in my new strange world
Shades of green grasses twine, girls drinking plasma wine
A look at love, a dream unfolds, living here, you’ll never grow old

Don’t you hear me call?

 

SANCTUARY

(Harris/Di’Anno/Murray)Sanctuary - Iron Maiden Single

Out of the route came a warhorse of steel
I’ve never killed a woman before, but I know how it feels

I know you’d have gone insane if you saw what I saw
So now I’ve got to look for sanctuary from the law
So give me sanctuary from the law and I’ll be alright
Just give me sanctuary from the law and love me tonight, tonight

I met up with a stranger last night to keep me alive
He spends all his money on gambling and guns to survive

I can laugh at the wind, I can howl at the rain
Down in the Canyon or out in the plain

 

CHARLOTTE THE HARLOT

(Murray)

Giving a swish with your arse in the air, don’t you know what they’re saying?
Charlotte you’re so refined when you take all the love that they’re giving.
Sticking with every man that you find, don’t you know what they’re after?
Charlotte you’ve got your legs in the air, don’t you hear all the laughter?

Chorus:

Charlotte the Harlot show me your legs
Charlotte the Harlot take me to bed
Charlotte the Harlot let me see blood
Charlotte the Harlot let me see love

Taking so many men to your room, don’t you feel no remorse?
You charge them a «fiver», It’s only for starters
And ten for the main course
And you’ve got no feelings, they died long ago
Don’t you care who you let in?
And don’t you know you’re breaking the law with the service you’re giving

Chorus

There was a time when you left me standing there
Picking up pieces of love off the floor
Well Charlotte you left me alone in there
To make your ends as a bloody whore
Well Charlotte you told me you love me true
Picking up pieces of love yesterday
Well Charlotte you’re draws are off color too
‘Cause you’re making love all day

Giving a swish with your arse in the air, don’t you know what they’re saying?
Charlotte you’re so refined when you take all the love that they’re giving
Sticking with every man that you find, don’t you know what they’re after?
Charlotte you’ve got your legs in the air, don’t you hear all the laughter?

Chorus

 

IRON MAIDEN

(Harris)

Won’t you come into my room
I want to show you all my wares
I just want to see your blood
I just want to stand and stare

See the blood begin to flow
As it falls upon the floor
Iron maiden can’t be fought
Iron maiden can’t be sought

Oh well, wherever, wherever you are
Iron Maiden’s gonna get you
No matter how far
See the blood flow
Watching it shed
Up above my head
Iron maiden wants you dead
