Confeos

(B. Dickinson/ Roy Z.)
Killing floor, SINGLE

Story of one strange night in Japan... 

In the smoky haze, she was dancing free
Should've ordered one but I ordered three
Then I watched the room, and it was dancing two
So I ordered four and I hit the floor

On the count of five, I was still alive
At the stroke of six, I picked a drink to mix
At the stroke of seven, I fell out of heaven
As the clock struck eight, I felt the hand of fate

BRIDGE:
You're in the spotlight
And I'm running out of time
You're in the spotlight
The wheels of your life starts now

Tell me what sin was on your mind, yeah
May I approach from behind, yeah
Tell me what sin was on your mind, yeah
Start confessing to your crimes, yeah

Well, I tried to come but I was already there
Did I arrive too soon? Well better late than never
When I come again, you will know it's time
Cause I have to go to catch another rhyme

Things are getting tight, maybe one more stroke
Any last words from the fiery folk

REPEAT BRIDGE

Tell me what sin is on your mind, yeah
May I approach from behind, yeah
Start confessing to your crimes, yeah
Tell me what sin is on your mind, yeah

Now the wheels of life goes rolling on, into the sun
Now the wheels of life goes rolling on, we roll as one

Tell me what sin is on your mind, yeah
Start confessing to your crimes, yeah

Real world

(B. Dickinson/ Roy Z.)
Killing floor, Japan SINGLE

How many lifetimes, how many beginnings
How many lovers, how many threats
How many religions to keep us all guessing
Give me a reason. Why? Hell is a reason. Why? 

The real world, you've got to fight to see it through
The real world, it's like the cages in the zoo
The real world, is there a lifelong there to be? 
The real world, the real world

Too many people try to sell you their cages
Killing the fox till the jailer arrives
If living in zoos is your idea of outrageous
Don't pick any animal, I'll be the wild one

The real world, you've got to fight to see it through
The real world, it's likes the cages in the zoo
The real world can leave you hanging by a thread
The real world, the real world
(x2)

Return of the king

(B. Dickinson /A. Smith)
Bonus track, Japanese "The chemical wedding"

A 100 years of toil and pain
to pull a stone upright again

Up routed from it's mountain home
Taken to this sacred circle 

Is there a secret in the stones?
A message in the hills
is there a secret in the stones?
A message long ago

CHORUS:
I know the king will come again
From the shadows of the sun
Burning hillsides with the beltane fires
I know tye king will come again
When all that glitters turns to rust
Uther Pendragon standing fast beside you

I know the king will come again (x2)

The sun, the moon, we worshipped here a calendar of fear'
Gazing across the channel sea to see the beacon's burning brightly

STICK:
Is that a shadow on the hill
or a phanton in the mere
What is the meaning of the stones?
Why do they stand alone?

REPEAT CHORUS

SOLO

REPEAT STICK

REPEAT CHORUS

I know the king will come again (x2)
