Raise Your Fist

Friday night, dressed to kill, hell-bent for the show
Shiny leather like a second skin, ready for the first row
You want to go to meet your pals, but your dad won't let you go
He's totally blind, babbling wild, and he rages and he blows

"I don't want you, boy, to leave my house this way
Your, your awful friends are gonna lead you astray
You better work for school, don't join this fucking show
Won't let you go"

Come on kids, unite
And let us feed the flames of rage
Together we are strong
So let's tear up this golden cage
We shall overcome
Repression and the strangling strings
The shackles have to fall
And we will be metallian kings

Raise your fist
Raise your fist
Raise your fist high
Raise your fist
Raise your fist
Raise your fist high

Monday morning, ringing school bell, homework isn't done
Teacher's gonna break your balls, don't expect no fun
Jailer's wild and furious, classmates deride you too
Wrath is overwhelming you, can't stand this fucking crew

I don't want you scums
Let me get away from here
I don't want to be a cogwheel in your gear
I'm no marionette in your boring puppet show
So let me go

Come on kids, unite
And let us feed the flames of rage
Together we are strong
So let's tear up this golden cage
We shall overcome
Repression and the strangling strings
The shackles have to fall
And we will be metallian kings

Raise your fist
Raise your fist
Raise your fist high
Raise your fist
Raise your fist
Raise your fist high

Come on kids, unite
And let us feed the flames of rage
Together we are strong
So let's tear up this golden cage
We shall overcome
Repression and the strangling strings
The shackles have to fall
And we will be metallian kings

Raise your fist
Raise your fist
Raise your fist high
Raise your fist
Raise your fist
Raise your fist high
