Calling all avenging angels Vengeance you know it tastes so good Vengeance is cold as ice When it has you in its sights (x2) CHORUS Calling all avenging angels Angels Kick-ass angels REPEAT You could give a call to Scotland Yard Or send for help from the FBI But they won't stop a bomb going off With only seconds on the clock REPEAT CHORUS Angel oh angel Here to brighten up my darkest day Take me in your arms Protect me from my enemies (enemies) Oh deadly angel Oh angel And when they've got on my knees When they're just about to do the deadly deed You rescue me (rescue me) Rescue me (rescue me) REPEAT CHORUS Angels angels Kick-ass angels REPEAT TWICE
