H.M.O

Days of old are closing fast, eternally, they cannot last You give it all to get ahead and no more paying dues Try your best to survive by getting out and playing live Struggling to get ahead, onward, we will march Dirty hair and dirty clothes And no more cocaine up your nose Debauchery, it is no more And no more groupies, no more whores Record labels, no support Booking gigs and selling short Still, there's something deep inside Sayin', "Heavy metal never dies" Heavy metal in your face Heavy metal steeplechase Heavy metal in your soul Heavy metal, rock 'n' roll Caught in a whirlwind, caught in a daze Every night is set ablaze Makin' the biz, we sold our souls For sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll Each marquee says, "Sold out" This is how we're goin' out Hear the screaming, hear the cries Because heavy metal never dies Heavy metal in your face Heavy metal steeplechase Heavy metal in your soul Heavy metal, rock 'n' roll Heavy metal in your face Heavy metal steeplechase Heavy metal in your soul Heavy metal, rock 'n' roll
