Judas Priest - Stained Class Lyrics
Wild-eyed and tight fisted, Im fused to the boneI stand contemplating, reacting aloneImpaled with betrayalThe tourniquet turnsSocietys creationPole-axed out and burntLong ago when man was king,His heart was clean now hes stained classTime has slashed each untouched thing,So now hes just a stained class kingTransfixed at deliverance, is this all there isFaithless continuum, into the abyssFierce is my conviction, absolute my beliefI spit at you apathy, and seducer deceitLong ago when man was king,His heart was clean now hes stained classTime has slashed each untouched thing,So now hes just a stained class kingLethal, deadly, hung, drawn and quarteredHe slaughtered and faltered and altered the worldBut by doing so smashed all his hopes and utopian dreamsWhipping, stripping, peeling the flesh off, relentless and senselessHis lust snapped like vipers whose fangs sank in deepTo infest and decay from the coreImpaled with betrayal, the tourniquet turnsSocietys creation, pole-axed out and burntLong ago when man was king,His heart was clean now hes stained classTime has slashed each untouched thing,So now hes just a stained class kingStained class king
