Long Live The King Written by Lawrence Gowan, Ricky Philips, Tommy Shaw, Will Evankovich Lead Vocals by  Tommy Shaw Listen on YouTube   Locked in the tower of the castle wall, there's a stranger Waiting for his day And things that he'd say To bring down the old one High above the ranks of greed and confusion Almost half asleep, in the belly of the beast Awaits a Monster The King is dead And the world is set on fire And we all scream, "long live the king!" Long live the king Long live the king There's an army of a million men at the gate Looking for a war to wage Like an actor with no stage Or someone to feed them Thеre is no beginning and therе is no end All just take the seat Stuck there on repeat And they'll do it again and again and again and again I said "yeah!" The king is dead And the world is set on fire And we all scream, long live the king Long live the king Long live the king

The Kingdom's Come Undone Written by Ronnie Montrose,  Ricky Phillips Lead Vocals by  Ricky Phillips You see the man in the mirror You can't see through his disguise Remember that face in his hand As he holds on in wild eyes Chop down the old weeping willow And see the hangman fall Deep down to the roots, therein lies the truth to desire In my life See them run In our time The kingdom's come undone Next in line Who will be next to carry on Is there a method in his madness Once the madman's crossed the line When his strength and beliefs become our legacy Will you stiffen for all of mankind Take the hood off the hangman And see the face of us all With your freedom of choice Will you be the voice With the blade of the axe when it falls In my life The freedom bell is rung When the death bells toll The kingdom's come undone The mirror sees you look away Others speak their mind Upon our shoulders, now will lay The generation next in line Is there method in his madness Onc...

Private Jones Written by  Dennis DeYoung Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung Private Jones fought for democracy Lookin' high and low for W.M.D He wanted to be brave for his dad and mom He never saw the flash from the roadside bomb And on the day he enlisted And he got his gun He'd been itchin' for action Since the towers fell on 9-1-1 Private Jones knew that he had the nerve A true patriot who was proud to serve He never had a doubt that he'd do his best But when the bullets fly it's a hell of a test And on the day he departed And he held his wife Private Jones had told her No way I'm gonna lose my life All honor all glory To those who made the sacrifice Hey Remember their stories Tell everyone they paid the price Alleluia I say Alleluia Alleluia I say Alleluia Ah Alleluia Private Jones knew there was hell to pay He knew that truth from the very first day He came to liberate and he aimed to please But he couldn't tell his friends from his enemies But in the heat o...

For What It's Worth Written by Stephen Stills Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw There's something happening here But what it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there Telling me I got to beware I think it's time we stop Children, what's that sound?

It Don't Make Sense (You Can't Make Peace) Written by Willie Dixon Lead Vocals by James Young Listen on YouTube You have made great planes to span the skies You gave sight to the blind with other men's eyes You even made submarines stay submerged for weeks But it don't make sense you can't make peace You take one man's heart and make another man live You even go to the moon and come back thrilled Why you can crush any country in a matter of weeks But it don't make sense you can't make peace You can make a transfusion that can save a life Why you can change the darkness into broad daylight You make the deaf man hear and the dumb man speak But it don't make sense you can't make peace

My Hallucination Written by Tommy Shaw & Jack Blades Lead Vocals by Jack Blades Manson lived, Lennon died You don't know the reason why I'm crying Thirty years enough time for me Tell me who shot Kennedy I'm dying Long tall Sally She comes and goes Got diamond rings All through her nose Is that all we were fighting for?

Somewhere in my hallucination I thought we were giving peace a chance But what's a revolution When the music plays And no one wants to dance Fat chance Going insane with the fun you've had Who's to blame when it all goes ba...

Show Me the Way Written by Dennis DeYoung Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung Every night I say a prayer in the hope that there's a heaven And every day I'm more confused as the saints turn into sinners All the heroes and legends I knew as a child have fallen to idols of clay And I feel this empty place inside so afraid that I've lost my faith Show me the way, show me the way Take me tonight to the river And wash my illusions away Show me the way And as I slowly drift to sleep, for a moment dreams are sacred I close my eyes and know there's peace in a world so filled with hatred That I wake up each morning and turn on the news to find we've so far to go And I keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid that I just won't know Show me the way, Show me the way Take me tonight to the mountain And wash my confusion away And if I see a light, should I believe Tell me how will I know Show me the way, show me the way Take me tonight to the river And wash my illusions away Show me th...

Message From Heaven Written by Lawrence Gowan Lead Vocals by Lawrence Gowan Once in a future dream I saw a tale unfold Not far away I'd dare to say There was a world unknown Torn to a million shreds Crippled with fear It would appear Then came a voice from the stars And all were listening to A message from heaven A message from heaven For the mighty that fell And the wise men as well Came a message from heaven "Very sorry all;... welcome to hell" Dark was the barren land Home to a savage race What had I missed Who deserved this?

Young Man Written by James Young, Rick Young Lead Vocals by James Young People say with age there comes experience But answers seem more distant every day The good news and the bad news come together What politician played this trick you say? Who can we get to win the fight? A young man Who can we get to make love all night? A young man Who do we send away to die? A young man I heard a lonely woman cry for A young man Ideologies mean very little When in practicality they're quite the same If God is love how can Her words be twisted Into holy wars where men will kill and maim Who can we get to win the fight? A young man Who can we get to make love all night? A young man Who do we send away to die? A young man I heard a lonely woman cry for A young man Come home my son, we'll give you a rest Welcome my son, we'll give you the best Time's stowaway, the young man So short are the days, of the young man

Black Wall (for those who served, whether by choice or chance and have cried "Back To The World") Written by Dennis DeYoung Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung I was lucky you know I wasn't there I didn't have to go and face my fear But still this hidden pain Comes up from the belly of the beast And even ten years past We're haunted now from both sides of the truth And the ghosts of Dienbienphu This war keeps hangin' on As if it were today 'Cause many a good men died On the road from Tet to Hue They won every battle they fought But the one that raged at home And now the only words that count Are the names carved out in stone As tears fall onto stone Black Wall Black Wall Sound the bugle boy For a twenty-one gun salute Call for the ticker tape And assemble all the troops Not a word about dominoes Or the horrors of napalm Let Johnny come marching home And greet him with a prayer and a psalm For the boys of Vietnam The boys of Vietnam Let Johnny come back to the wo...

This Is Not A Test Written by Tommy Shaw Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw The music's interuppted by an old Familiar sound We've heard it all our lives Who paid attention Then the radio announcer tells us This has been a test I never heard the rest I always changed the station Mr. President our radar shows An image in the skies And we believe it's headed our Direction The Russions aren't responding And we're up against the clock It seems there's no avoiding This deadly confrontation And this is not a test No video effect No science fiction quest for glory And this is not a test There'll be no turning back The hour is at hand And this is not a test You can ignore We've not been here before Let's hear it for the war How did peace and freedom Disappear before our very eyes And leave us in this desperate situation There is no way to justify For country or for God The heavens are a battlefield And now this confrontation
