Safety In Speed (Heavy Metal) Lyrics

I've only walked out on one single movie
It was an action-adventure
It was a blood-sucking summer.
And the posters in the lobby of the theater called it "Predator."
I called it weak and unwatchable
Carl Whithers and two future governors
You know, that's really unacceptable.
We gotta stop falling for these double speakers from the double features
We gotta keep `em in the theaters.

So put your head up to the speakers
This is what it's like to stop talking and finally hear me
"I'm concerned you're itchin' to burn, I know you're dying to know, homie I'm dying to listen and learn"
So put your head up to the headphones
This is what it's like to drown out the psychos
"I'm concerned you're itchin' to burn, I know you're dying to do it, but homie you gotta see how it's done."
So put your gun in the shoebox
Put the box in the back of your closet and close the door.
"Between the kegs and the Maiden CD, I think this party's got about as much heavy metal as it's gonna need."
So put your head up to the speakers
This is what it's like to stop talking and finally hear me
"See, we ain't got time to bleed. We hit the highways, when skating on thin ice the safety's in speed"

You ever feel like you're being tricked, tricked-out, dicked, dicked around with, or flat out lied to?
Welcome to Hollywood D.C, where Reagan youth grew up cowboys off Ronnie's westerns
That shoot em up, and steal the bucks
Tell em what's love and giddy-up, yeah off into the sunset
Years later we watched the Running Man and two of 'em ran and won, too star-struck to stick with the plan, huh
I shoulda switched to Marlboro's
Them cowboy killers
Cause Cowboys are killing Camel Lights.
And some mustache punked the evil Jafar,
But for a middle eastern guy, I think Aladdin looked kinda white
We open wide and catch a bite of villain image
We swallow it, and feed it to the kids if the song's alright.
That's just the way it be,
Eyes wide shut up and sit down,
Put your hands up for your turn to speak

So put your head up to the speakers
This is what it's like to stop talking and finally hear me
"I'm concerned you're itchin' to burn, I know you're dying to know, homie I'm dying to listen and learn"
So put your head up to the headphones
This is what it's like to drown out the Psychoes
"I'm concerned you're itchin' to burn, I know you're dying to do it, but homie you gotta see how it's done."
So put your gun in the shoebox
Put the box in the back of your closet and close the door.
"Between the kegs and the Maiden CD, I think this party's got about as much heavy metal as it's gonna need."
So put your head up to the speakers
This is what it's like to stop talking and hear me
"See, we ain't got time to bleed. We hit the highways, when skating on thin ice the safety's in speed"

I got my Nikon
Let’s get our Knife on
And get a couple snapshots of a bad move
(x6)

Can you turn on the light?
Cause I forgot the flash;
Want these proofs to prove what not to do.
