2 Minutes To Midnight

Iron Maiden

Kill for gain or shoot to maim


But we don't need a reason


The Golden Goose is on the loose


And never out of season.


Blackened pride still burns inside


This shell of bloody treason


Here's my gun for a barrel of fun


For the love of living death.





The killer's breed or the Demon's seed,


The glamour, the fortune, the pain,


Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain,


Don't you pray for my soul anymore.





2 minutes to midnight,


The hands that threaten doom.


2 minutes to midnight,


To kill the unborn in the womb.





The blind men shout let the creatures out


We'll show the unbelievers,


The Napalm screams of human flames


Of a prime time Belsen feast...YEAH!


As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat


and lick the gravy,


We oil the jaws of the war machine


and feed it with our babies.





The killer's breed or the Demon's seed,


The glamour, the fortune, the pain,


Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain,


Don't you pray for my soul anymore.





2 minutes to midnight,


The hands that threaten doom.


2 minutes to midnight,


To kill the unborn in the womb.





The body bags and little rags of children


torn in two,


And the jellied brains of those who remain


to put the finger right on you


As the madmen play on words and make us all


dance to their song,


To the tune of starving millions


to make a better kind of gun.





The killer's breed or the Demon's seed,


The glamour, the fortune, the pain,


Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain,


Don't you pray for my soul anymore.





2 minutes to midnight,


The hands that threaten doom.


2 minutes to midnight,


To kill the unborn in the womb.


Midnight...all night...
