Iron Maiden - The trooper

Tekst :

You ll take my life but I ll take yours too
You ll fire your musket but I ll run you through
So when you re waiting for the next attack
You d better stand there s no turning back.

The bugle sounds and the charge begins
But on this battlefield no one wins
The smell of acrid smoke and horses breath
As I plunge on into certain death.

The horse he sweats with fear we break to run
The mighty roar of the Russian guns
And as we race towards the human wall
The screams of pain as my comrades fall

We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
And the Russians fire another round
We get so near yet so far away
We won t live to fight another day.

We get so close near enough to fight
When a Russian gets me in his sights
He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow
A burst of rounds take my horse below.

And as I lay there gazing at the sky
My body s numb and my throat is dry
And as I lay forgotten and alone
Without a tear I draw my parting groan

    Seven hillsides

    All night I ve wrestled Jacob s angels
    And prayed with Matthew, Luke and John
    Struggling to find the words to face the task
    That comes upon the blood red dawn.

    I ve buried men before their time
    Of alcohol and blackened lung
    But how to bury seven of these...

    From the start

    Tell me what you need
    You know it s on your mind
    You say he s usually
    Screwin up your life
    He s always gone
    When you need to talk
    It s just so wrong.

    I wish you wanted love
    Is it enough?
    I ll be your shelter when the weather is rough
    And now you should let go

    I walk alone

    I walk a crooked twisting path
    That seems to be leading nowhere
    I lead a loner s life
    Not what I meant to do

    I do what seemed to be
    The right thing at one time
    But now that time has passed

    La ricostruzione del mocambo

    Dopo le mie vicissitudini
    Oggi ho ripreso con il mio bar
    Dopo un periodo di solitudine
    Il mocambo ecco qui tutto in fior

    Ora convivo con unaaustriaca,
    Abbiamo comorato un tinello marron
    Ma la sera tra noi non c quasi dialogo
    Io parlo male il tedesco, scusa, pardon,
    Io non parlo il tedesco, scusami, pardon

    Het wordt heet, zo heet
    En alles wat ik voel dat komt eruit
    Het wordt heet, zo heet
    Het wordt zo heet onder m n voeten man
    Ik moet hier weg voor ik totaal verbrand
