[Intro]

Riding the wind on a stormy night

Rides a mother's son to take your life

They say he died ten years ago

But the list of victims seems to grow

"Like father, like son," the Bible read

Three sixes brand the top of his head

Never heard, seen, then too late

Overkill seals your fate


[Verse 1]

Driven by the host of hell

Wicked smile cross the showing skull

The victim dies, no fucking loss

Overkill buries the cross

That scarlet sin, the soul is weary

Genre et morte, mal vivre

The fallen angels open the cell

Overkill victims enters hell


[Verse 2]

Who can tell me who I am?

Am I Overkill? Each death, a sin

Questions linger as I walk the path

I am Overkill, the devil's wrath

So, when you walk alone in the night

And bones are chilled, skin so tight

Beware the sound of a galloping horse

Overkill has another corpse


[Chorus]

Ride high, ride tall

Overkill will never fall

Full moon, sharp sword

Satan is your lord

Midnight, dark sky

Overkill will never die

Bloodbath, die fast

Overkill, the devil's wrath


[Verse 3]

Riding the wind on a stormy night

Rides a mother's son to take your life

They say he died ten years ago

But the list of victims seems to grow

"Like father, like son," the Bible read

Three sixes brand the top of his head

Never heard, seen, then too late

Overkill


[Chorus]

Ride high, ride tall

Overkill will never fall

Full moon, sharp sword

Satan is your lord

Midnight, dark sky

Overkill will never die

Bloodbath, die fast

Overkill, the devil's wrath


[Outro]

Kill, kill, kill, kill

Kill!
