Chernobyl Survivor

I was only ten, and even then I listened to my Maiden at maximum volume It was so easy to drive the neighbours crazy I remember them saying "This child is going nowhere" But I didn't care, "Who are you to judge me? Go mow your lawn and leave me alone. I'll crank it up so I won't hear your dumb shit. And grow my hair just because you hate it" This music gave me the strength to say fuck 'em [Chorus:] I love it when the tubes overheat and crack, about to explode When distortion roars like thunder in the storm I wanna pump all the power and burn all the fuses I'll surely die deaf,'cause my motto is: The louder the better Twenty years later, things haven't changed, I carry on Spreading the plague, yielding the horns I must have sniffed some gun powder I feel radioactive like a Chernobyl survivor And when I'll be in the madhouse at 50 years-old I'll be the only bastard up and screaming: "rock and roll!" Banging my metal head against the padded wall Knocking on death's door This shit'll give me the strength to say fuck you all Once again, motherfuckers [Chorus]
