Axeman Lyrics by Amebix

Arise!

0

[Intro]
Axeman

[Verse 1]
Lock up your children, the axeman is coming
Lock up your children, the axeman is coming
Lock up your children, the axeman is running
Lock up your children, he's here

[Chorus]
(Slaughter) He's coming
Slaughter
(Slaughter) He's coming
Slaughter
(Slaughter) He's coming
Slaughter
(Slaughter) He's coming
Slaughter

[Verse 2]
Is he from the army or the S.A.S.?
Rejected and shunned, left out on his own
The skills he acquired are put to the test
The ripping of flesh, and the pulping of bone

[Chorus]
(Slaughter) He's coming
Slaughter
(Slaughter) He's coming
Slaughter
(Slaughter) He's coming
Slaughter
(Slaughter) He's coming
Slaughter

[Bridge]
It's late, and it's dark, but one walks the streets
An axe in his hand, no glint in his eye
This mindless machine, he butcher, you meat
Calm and collected, but twisted inside

[Outro]
(Slaughter) He is here
Slaughter
(Slaughter) He is here
Slaughter
(Slaughter) He is here
Slaughter
(Slaughter) He is here
Slaughter
