Lyrics
Metal!
I've signed a contract with the devil
I've tried for so very long
I'd die to become immortal
That's why I sing this song
Am I a wannabe?
Have I no dignity?
Who'd give up all my life to be
In the book of heavy metal! (Metal!)
In the book of heavy metal! (Metal!)
In life, I have no religion
Besides the heavy metal gods
Wear nothing but black, skintight leather
My skin is clad with metal studs
Am I a wannabe?
Have I no dignity?
I'd give up all my life to be
In the book of heavy metal! (Metal!)
In the book of heavy metal! (Metal!)
Some 20 years ago, the gods put down their feet
So firmly into the ground that no man of sword nor pen
Could ever change the rules upon which
The very fundamental of the metal was made
Read all about it, in the book of heavy metal!
Read all about it, in the manual!
Read all about it, in the book of heavy metal!
Read all about it, yes, read it!
Don't need no flashy house, no car or ugly wife
The only thing I want is what my parents don't
Need no widescreen TV, no, in all honesty
The only thing I want to be (to be or not to be)
In the book of heavy metal! (Metal!)
In the book of heavy metal! (Metal!)
In the book of heavy metal! In life (metal!)
In the book of heavy metal! To death (metal!)
In the book of heavy metal!
I've signed a contract with the devil (in the book of heavy metal!)
I'd like to become a star (in the book of heavy metal!)
I'd die to become immortal (in the book of heavy metal!)
That's why I play the guitar (in the book of heavy metal!)
In the book of heavy metal! (Metal!)
In the book of heavy metal! (Metal!)
In the book of heavy metal! (Metal!)
In the book of heavy metal! (Metal!)
