In those days of the Roman emperor Issued a decree that a census should be taken of the world Joseph was one of the labourers With Mary he went to Bethlehem, the town of David You have something heard While they were there, a child was born The mother wrapped him in some clothes And placed him in a manger by the inn While they were there, a child was born The shepherds watched their flocks at night The Lords appeared and they were terrified While they were there a child was born Don’t be afraid, he‘s in the world, he’s born to you The sinister child The shepherds straight went to Bethlehem To find the place to glorify and serve the child And many were with them Three kings had heard of the mystery They were overjoyed to find him there The worshiped him and praised their destiny And a star was shining bright The tidings spread out through the land That through his birth a new time will arise And a star was shining bright But the birth it was not undefiled And the demons danced untamed, so free and wild And a star was shining bright Don’t be afraid, he’s in the world, he’s born to you The sinister child And a star was shining bright The shepherds watched their flocks at night The Lords appeared and they were terrified And a star was shining bright But the birth it was not undefiled And the demons danced untamed, so free and wild And a star was shining bright But the birth it was not undefiled And the demons danced untamed, so free and wild And a star was shining bright Don’t be afraid, he‘s in the world, he’s born to you The sinister child

We’re by birth sons of a doc Who later feared what he had given life We embraced, hugged and caressed us Believe me, we didn’t strife Early on, we were the nightmare Of the neighbourhood In our school our teachers loved us And they want our presence for good We didn’t like when fellow beings Screamed into our ears They don’t respect our sensitivity They don’t respect our fears We’re Frankenstein’s brothers We come to your town Take care of your daughters We turn your world upside down We’re Frankenstein’s brothers We come to your town Take care of your daughters We turn your world upside down Nowadays we’re older and wiser And have learned that people are strange We have found our place in society Our lives are conformed and arranged When we play night after night in our Heavy Metal band Thanks to all that like these monsters Created by an uncommon hand We don’t like when fellow beings Scream into our ears They don’t respect our sensitivity They don’t respect our fears We’re Frankenstein’s brothers We come to your town Take care of your daughters We turn your world upside down We’re Frankenstein’s brothers We come to your town Take care of your daughters We turn your world upside down Frankenstein’s brothers We come to your town Take care of your daughters We turn your world upside down We’re Frankenstein’s brothers We come to your town Take care of your daughters We turn your world upside down Frankenstein’s brothers We come to your town Take care of your daughters We turn your world upside down We’re Frankenstein’s brothers We come to your town Take care of your daughters We turn your world upside down Frankenstein’s brothers

From the gate of the kings where the loud horn calls The north wind rides and falls What good news from the north can you bring today Who went that long and stony way Move on – bring the message to my friend Move on – until the war will end Over fen and field where the long grass grows The wild west wind comes and goes What news from the west do you bring tonight Have you seen the glorious fight Move on – bring the message to my friend Move on – until the war will end Until the war will end From the endless sea where the goddess lives The hot south wind moans and grieves What from the south can you tell to me How many passed the flowing sea Move on – bring the message to my friend Move on – until the war will end Move on – bring the message to my friend Move on – until the war will end Until the war will end

When I’d attained the age of seventeen My parents send me to a cadet school All my fellow students were like me Coming from distinguished homes They treated us hard, but not unfairly They drilled us and we learned to stand straight We looked so fine in our uniforms And our parents were so proud of us We went to many fancy dress balls And met the sisters of our fellow friends And also women that we shouldn’t know But these were things that we kept for ourselves We didn’t have the faintest notion What fighting on the battleground means In those days everything was glorious And the departure was not easy for us The rain whips my face and like struck by lightning My comrade falls near by my side I creep over him, I pull him back – hopefully he is alive Through smoke, fire and blood, through all that hellfire I carry him safe to our camp But in my excitement I lost attention That something has taken his soul Was it worth the price – this human sacrifice I have tried it with might and rain Alas, but I had to underlay Against the Death everything’s in vein I was just a puppet in a play I‘m wounded and sick My comrade beside me Is wounded and struggles with death I try to help him as best I can All in this horror and pain In blaze, blood and danger with kindred emotions I try to ease his mind But deep dark shadows that move like monsters Shake him and time him away Was it worth the price This human sacrifice I have tried it with might and rain Alas, but I had to underlay Against the Death everything’s in vein I was just a puppet in a play, in a play Now war is over but I’m still in service I survived in this horrible dream I miss my brother, who deserted the colours He wrote me, he is alive By night fall they called me for an execution But, oh God, what did I see These clear, proud eyes were the eyes of my brother I close my eyes as I shoot Was it worth the price This human sacrifice I have tried it with might and rain Alas, but I had to underlay Against the Death everything’s in vein I was just a puppet in a play, in a play

When I saw you in that moonlit night The sea mirrored your face Your silhouette, so angelic I felt a deep disgrace Yes, I know, I shouldn’t do it But I love your innocence You will love it, when I give you The kiss of death Your parents died when you were young Since then you lived alone Your days grew on and on and on I’d foreseen it, then I’d known Yes, I know, I shouldn’t do it But I love your innocence You will love it, when I give you The kiss of death I stole myself into your heart I was your brother and friend During all that time, I wished and longed Desired the final end Yes, I know, I shouldn’t do it But I love your innocence You will love it, when I give you The kiss of death

At one time lived in a small place by the coast A foundling that didn’t have a name The people in the town don’t take notice of that name The place was called “Moonfleet” And they called her the same Moonfleet Moonfleet No one cared about this little girl Although she had a special gift What she dreamed of, always came true But that only knew Moonfleet Moonfleet “Hear my words – a flood will come Hear my words – we all will drown then Hear my words – please built a dyke” She told them again and again Moonfleet Moonfleet They at last believed what the little girl said And so everyone could be saved before the flood And since that day everybody knows her name The place was called “Moonfleet” And they called her the same Moonfleet Moonfleet Moonfleet Moonfleet
King Herod gave a banquet for all his leading men They ate and drank and they were pleased He called for his daughter, he loved her for her beauty “Dance for me at this feast” “Ask me for anything, all that you want, and I will give it to you” She smiled at him gently and thought by herself This day you will regret No longer I’m your daughter, I want to kiss that prophet Or otherwise he will be dead The night of the seven veils – she wants to seduce him The night of the seven veils – she wants to confuse him The night of the seven veils – he just let her feel his hate The night of the seven veils – and so she wants his head onto a plate Her dance were bewitching, she danced the seven veils She was so passionate and pure The guests and her father, they cheered more and more Her father promised her for sure “Ask me for anything, all that you want, and I will give it to you” “I love John the Baptist, but he don’t look at me He just found words of disdain All that I will ask for, the head of John, my lover This is the pleasure for my pain” The night of the seven veils – she wants to seduce him The night of the seven veils – she wants to confuse him The night of the seven veils – he just let her feel his hate The night of the seven veils – and so she wants his head… The night of the seven veils – she wants to seduce him The night of the seven veils – she wants to confuse him The night of the seven veils – he just let her feel his hate The night of the seven veils – and so she wants his head onto a plate

If you want to have a good time Well, there is just one single way Let us meet our old companions That we found along the way Still our days and nights are endless Still we’re running wild and free Still those women are temptation Play the game like it used to be Let us drink to the times that we had The good and the bad Until we’re dead – hoi Let us drink to the times that we had The good and the bad Until…. Don’t look back in anger The old times still remain Everything is changing But something’s still the same With the years it’s getting harder To party all night long But don’t let them steal your power To sing our finest sing Let us drink to the times that we had The good and the bad Until we’re dead – hoi Let us drink to the times that we had The good and the bad Until, until we’re dead Let us drink to the times that we had The good and the bad Until we’re dead – hoi Let us drink to the times that we had The good and the bad Until…. Let us drink to the times that we had The good and the bad Until we’re dead Let us drink to the times that we had The good and the bad Until, until we’re dead

In my head, in my brain There is something still remaining of the past Was it “breaking the chains” Was it destiny that was happening at last I have cried to my father I have prayed to the moon Is there anybody healing me soon It was always the same There was something strange in the corner of my world Never ending the game Can I stand the power of the flame that burns my soul I have prayed to my father I have cried at the moon Is there anybody healing me soon Someone bring her back to me I just want to see her smiling face I’ve given her my heart, I’ve given her my soul But the door it slammed and she has left me lonely I’ve given you my heart, I’ve given you my words But the darkness come and you have left me lonely So lonely – and now your blood lies in my hand I’ve given you my heart, I’ve given you my world But the door it slammed and you have left me lonely So lonely – and now your blood lies in my hand
