Fight 04:33
Well you had a hit song 5 years ago and now nobody remembers your face, But there's so many bands from decades ago, we still listen to and we know their names. They say these things come and go, come in waves, fads and trends, but there's one constant in this life, guaranteed to bring a smile! Rock and roll will never die, we've gotta fight, fight, fight to keep it alive. Fight! Fight! Fight! To the very end. Rock and roll will never die, come on, say it again, rock and roll will never die! Play something I can headbang to, any time, every day. I like Jazz and I like Blues, Classical and some other shit too, But there's only one thing that I love, it calms me down, it turns me on, it cheers me up no matter what, I get goosebumps when I hear... Rock and roll will never die, we've gotta fight, fight, fight to keep it alive. Fight! Fight! Fight! To the bitter end. Rock and roll will never die, come on, say it again, rock and roll will never die! ...2,3,4! So let me tell you once again, there's nothing better than the Devil's band. Shove your auto-tune up your ass, a millennial whoop ain't got no class! Paid someone to write your song, manufactured to sell the trend, and get a pretty face to repeat that line, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat! Fight! Fight! Fight! Rock and roll will never die! Fight! Fight! Fight! Rock and roll will never die! Fight! Fight! Fight!

Burning flesh, rain of death, smell of blood hangs in the air. No sight through the trees, the sound of whirling blades, brings me to my knees. Fear strikes us all, as the light begins to fade, Hueys up high, panicked screams, smoke fills the sky. Who sent us here? To fight those who don't want us here. Where are they now? The deathly shadows of fear. To war we will ride, brutality, means to an end. Black smoke and thunder, bring down the last of the giants. To war we will ride, through Napalm Hellfire! They come from all around, they knew we were here, we can't escape what we cannot see. Invisible hunters, come to rid their land of, unwanted invaders. Why are we here? Agent Orange, falling from the air. Leaving only bright futures ahead. Agent Orange, creeper of death. Agent Orange, bringer of nightmares. As darkness falls, shaking in terror, we quietly pray to see another day. With a flash and a bang, it starts over again, riding into battle, through Napalm Hellfire! 1... 2... 1, 2, 3, 4! Here we go, one last time, we're coming home, in a big black bag, Through Napalm Hellfire!!!

Dragon king 09:30
Admire the wolf, who hunts alone, Dream of the beast, that hides within, See the unicorn, you refuse to believe, I am the Phoenix, that will rise, rise up. Does it make sense? nothing anymore, Nothing makes sense, in this world, So, drink another cup, of sweet black juice. I can't take another day, screw this world, Damn you to hell, fill my cup, one more time! He who welcomes Death, from a tragic hand, Drink blood, from the heart, of Adam, Fettered hate will consume us all, Face your fear, that waits in the dark, I am the shadow, you thought you saw. I am 6 of 7 sins, I stand tall as I reach for the last. You are tears from a starving mother, he was a child who knew no other. Contamination, that bleeds your soul. Dread, war, peace, I am yours. Feel the rage, that won't subside. Oh, to be a Dragon king, hail me and my lizard queen. Black, stars, fall. Oh, to be the Dragon king, bow down to me and my thirsty queen. A white winged beast and flies from Hell. Oh, to be a Dragon king, praise me and my little queen. Black, stars, will fall. Oh, to be the Dragon king, bow to me, my new hareem. A white winged Angel, flies from Hell. Used whores yearn to see the light, I am a man who can do no right, Listen to the voice, you cannot silence, I'm catastrophic, take it in stride. Squiggly G, the S q G, the Astro-Necromancer, meister-in-chief. And the door is always locked but I will check it again.

I walked into her cave that night. She looked at me with her crooked eye. What a sight to behold. I took her by sur-fucking-prise. Her stalagmite dress on the floor. Echoes of someone before. And she reveled in elation number 4. Hunchback nude goblin. Hunchback nude goblin. Hunchback nude goblin. Hunchback nude goblin. Hunchback nude goblin. Hunchback nude goblin.

I am a wizard man, Empire of none, I will make you shake, with a flick of my wand. I came from the sky, To see the filth of man, With a bladed thrall, and a big red eye. I light the fire high, With my devil's touch, We're in a trance, like a shaman yeah. Whatever you want, I can make it so, Leather wings, and a horn-ed skull. So tell me baby, What you want me to be, I will get it done, with the setting sun. I speak a mystic tongue, A black demon's gun, I call from the shadows, a reckless one. I can see through your lies, And your crystal eyes, You're afraid of death, and what shall become. I know your hatred, Is the blight on your soul, Your white china skin, deceives us all. Do you want to dance? On the rancid beach, I know that you want, to burn my flesh. I can tell by your face, You want to know how I taste, You can smell my blood, a fucking hungry shark. And I will give you fangs, Like the vampire, Feel the lust, dripping from your mouth. And whatever you want, I can make it so, Because I am, the sorcerer. And I will cast you out, When I am done, Your usefulness, to me is gone. I have had my fun, I've had my fun!

I’ve got an ace in the hole, a trick up my sleeve. We never back down, a wolf doesn’t sleep. We’ve got a master plan, the shit’s going down. Time is running out so bring the battleships round. Load the BIG, BIG, GUNS! Hunters corral. So, let’s bare our teeth, snarl and howl. Beat the WAR DRUMS LOUD! Time to move out, lets go… I’ve got an ace in the hole, just wait you’ll see. The pack’s got my back, brothers in arms. We’ll cross thunderous seas and stars abound. We’re on a mighty crusade, leave no one behind. For we are DOGS OF WAR! Always hungry for more. So, hear the cannons roar, we are a feral breed. From ICY LANDS, to endless black. We’ve got an ace in the hole, a primal thirst. A savage blood lust courses through our veins. Pillage and plunder, sky, earth and sea. Bring forth sword, axe and shield, we’re hot on your heels. So, RUN, RUN, RUN! We live for the chase. Feed our canine desires and fall from grace. Our BLACK, BLACK, HEARTS! Feel no remorse. We’ve got an ace in the hole, a plan of attack. We heed the dog-man’s call, with iron claws. Praise the all-father, we slay in his name. He bares a thorn-ed crown, upon his mane. Don’t take his NAME IN VAIN! Lest thou shalt rue the day. Here comes the cavalry, a price you will pay. Your SACRIFICE! For tonight we will feast.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I've heard a lot of crazy things been, going on. The scientific minds, are full of ideas. They say we're gonna colonise, a rock called Mars. They're telling me they're, gonna grow vegetables, in the fucking red dirt of, another world! Well tell me how we're gonna, manage that? When we burn all our forests, into ash! Oh, one more time. Galaxies are there, to be explored, but we cannot escape, our solar backyard. Nobody's walked up there, since 1-9-6-9. We wanna know what lies in the Universe. Why does everything have to be so far? Polluted ourselves out of, house and home. Now Humankind, is marching for the stars!

Ever since man first stood on two legs, he has dreamed and yearned for power. Dominate thy neighbour, kill thy brother, take whatever we can. Take anything, don't give back, crush everything in our path. Bleed the land with iron hands and burn it to the ground! When Hell and Earth collide, wave your flag and scream with pride. We march on blood stained earth, this is our battle scarred home. The once green land lies suffering, concrete wounds and plastic scabs. Technology and progress is the name, exploitation is the game. Cut it down, carve it up, what use is the forest anyway? Drain the land, tear it up then burn it to the ground! Oh Mother Earth, I wonder if you can feel the cuts we bore on you? Deep into your skin. These marks we left for you. A million years of sin, the Devil walks on you, stampeding through history. No remorse, only death, blood, lust and tears. Never satisfied, expand and divide, my empire is bigger than yours. Do what I say or else your blood will shed, conform to my way or lose your head. Take it from dead rival's hands, taken from their tribal lands. Pillage! Pillage! Pillage! Pillage! Burn it to the ground! When Hell and Earth collide, raise your flag and scream with pride. They died in blood stained dirt, this is our battle scarred home.

about

MizznThrope UK

Music made by Jimi C. (Jim Arkham). Over the last 18 years or so I have written quite a lot of songs (60+) I never recorded anything, just kept it all in my head for years. Until now. The long arduous process of recording this extensive back-catalog has begun! My recording/software skills are very basic, but I'm doing my best! Stay tuned. ... more
