Hammerhead Lyrics by Overkill

Feel the Fire

1985

[Verse 1]
Feeling the pain as it rips through my brain
Twisting what's left of my mind
Tearing the same, this blood-burning flame
Decaying all it can find
Banging your head, stuck in the dread
Leavin' the poseurs behind
Powers you see, the powers you need
Nerves and bones we grind

[Chorus]
Hammer
Hammerhead
Hammer
Hammerhead

[Verse 2]
Knocked to the floor, left wanting more
Scars decorate your face
Playing the game, you're never the same
The heat is melting this place
Emotion and fire, you never tire
Running a death-metal race
Knife in the back, guitar heart attack
Murder, rest my case

[Chorus]
Hammer
Hammerhead
Hammer
Hammerhead

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
No one can stop our way to the top
No one can get in the way
Neck-snapping force taking its course
Keeping the dogs at bay
Nailed to the wall, giving your all
We know that you ain't dead
I know your name; I know why you came
You're a fucking hammerhead

[Chorus]
Hammer
Hammerhead
Hammer
Hammerhead
Hammer
Hammerhead
Hammer

[Outro]
Hammer
Hammer
