ROB HALFORD lyrics : "Stained Class"

[Halford/Tipton]

Wild eyed and tight fisted

I'm fused to the bone
I stand contemplating
Reacting alone


Impaled with betrayal
The tourniquet turns

Society's creation
Pole axed out and burnt


Long ago when man was king
His heart was clean
Now he's stained class


Time has slashed
Each un-touched thing

So now he's just
A stained class king


Transfixed at deliverance
Is this all there is?
Faithless continuum

Into the abyss

Fierce is my conviction

Absolute my belief
I spit at you apathy
And seducer deceit


Long ago when man was king
His heart was clean

Now he's stained class

Time has slashed

Each un-touched thing
So now he's just
A stained class king


Lethal, deadly, hung, drawn
And quartered he slaughtered and faltered

And altered the world.

But by doing so smashed

All his hopes and utopian dreams

Whipping, stripping peeling the flesh off

Relentless and senseless

His lust snapped like vipers

Whose fangs sank in deep
To infest and decay from the core.


Impaled with betrayal
The tourniquet turns
Society's creation

Pole axed out and burnt

Long ago when man was king

His heart was clean
Now he's stained class


Time has slashed
Each un-touched thing
So now he's just

A stained class king

Stained class king
