Lung Of Steel (The Ballad Of True Metal)

(album: True Metal Of The World - 2003)

We were a little invidious of Manowar's diseases
Who made them have a heart of steel
We wanted to be more true than them
So we chose to get lung-cancer
So a surgeon would remove our meat-lung
And replace it with one made of steel

The operation went all-right
And we were so excited to have such true-metal
New organ inside ourselves
So we took our metal tricycles
And we stayed about all night outside for party
At least till 11 o'clock

Manowar were born with a heart of steel
But we will die with a lung of true metal

We cannot swim or take a bath
If we go to the airport the gate rings
If we meet someone who has a bypass
Our lung goes down
If we switch off the amps (we must stop breathing because otherwise our lung would explode
But finally we are super-true!)

Manowar were born with a heart of steel
But we will die with a lung of true metal
