von Metallica

So, are you guys want some more or something?
You guys want some more?
"Creeping Death"

Hey

(Slaves) Hebrews born to serve to the pharaoh
(Heed) to his every word, live in fear
(Faith) of the unknown one, the deliverer
(Wait) something must be done, 400 years, yeah

So let it be written, so let it be done
I′m sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written, so let it be done
To kill the firstborn pharaoh son
I'm creeping death, yeah

(Now) let my people go, land of Goshen
(Go) I will be with thee, bush of fire
(Blood) running red and strong, down the Nile
(Plague) darkness three days long, hail to fire


So let it be written, so let it be done
I′m sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written, so let it be done
To kill the firstborn pharaoh son
I'm creeping death, yeah

Wait, wait, wait
Hold on, shut up, wait a minute
Some of you know what the fuck is going on
So, you guys still wanna do some singin' tonight?
You guys still wanna do some singin′?
You guys ain′t tired, are ya?
Alright, keep doing it

We want you to sing some back-up vocals for us
Okay, can you do that? I believe you can
So repeat this right here and keep fuckin' screaming it
This here, come on
Die, die, die

(Die) by my hand (die, die)
I creep across the land (die, die, die)
Killing firstborn man (die, die)
(Die) by my hand (die, die)
I creep across the land (die, die, die)
Killing firstborn man, die you fucker


I rule the midnight air, the destroyer
(Born) I shall soon be there, deadly mass
I creep the steps and floor, final darkness
(Blood) lambs blood painted door, I shall pass, shit

So let it be written, so let it be done
I′m sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written, so let it be done
To kill the firstborn pharaoh son
I'm creeping death, yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah
