You can look to the left and Look to the right But you will live in danger tonight When the enemy comes he will Never be heard He'll blow your mind and not say a word Blinding lights, flashing colors Sleepless nights If the man with the power Can't keep it under control Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll The power-mad freaks who are Ruling the earth Will show how little they think you're worth With animal lust they'll Devour your life And slice your word to bits like a knife One last day burning hell fire You're blown away If the man with the power Can't keep it under control Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Know what it's like When you're taken for granted There goes your life It's so underhanded If the man with the power Can't keep it under control Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll Some heads are gonna roll
