Painkiller** by Judas Priest (Glenn Tipton)
and later covered by Death (Chuck Schuldiner)
-
Faster than a bullet
Terrifying scream
Enraged and full of anger,
he's half man and half machine.
Rides the metal monster,
breathing smoke and fire,
closing in with vengeance soaring high

He is the Painkiller!
This is the Painkiller!

Planets devastated,
mankind's on it's knees.
A savior comes from out the skies
in answer to their pleas.
Through boiling clouds of thunder,
blasting bolts of steel,
evil's going under,
deadly wheels!

He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller

Faster than a laser bullet,
louder than an atom bomb,
chromium plated boiling metal,
brighter than a thousand stars!
Flying high on rapture
Stronger free and brave,
nevermore encaptured.
They've been brought back from the grave
With mankind ressurrected,
forever to survive,
returns from Armageddon to the skies!

He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Wings of steel Painkiller
Deadly wheels Painkiller
