"The Serpent And The King" lyrics - JUDAS PRIEST

JUDAS PRIEST
"The Serpent And The King"

Idols to their worlds
Manifesting anger
Conjurers of evil times
We can sense the danger
They claim every soul
Show you who's the leader
Bow before iconoclasts
Creators of disaster

[Pre-Chorus:]
They play with stars and sulphur just for heavens sake
To them we are a fantasy to see who's first to break
When good and evil go to war we leave it up to fate
Since time began they fought for man incurring love and hate

[Chorus:]
The Serpent and The King
The Serpent and The King
The Serpent and The King
The Serpent and The King

Wiping out the weak
Lording their creation
Where you hide they'll find to seek
Feeding those mistaken
Pyramid of bones
Satiate their hunger
Volatilic they condone
Sympathize no longer

[Pre-Chorus:]
They play with stars and sulphur just for heavens sake
To them we are a fantasy to see who's first to break
When good and evil go to war we leave it up to fate
Since time began they fought for man incurring love and hate

[Chorus:]
The Serpent and The King
The Serpent and The King (the end is coming soon)
The Serpent and The King
The Serpent and The King (it's time to meet your doom)

[Guitar solo]

[Bridge:]
Cast out of paradise
Temptation's wrath
Constrict self sacrifice
The tree of life

They claim every soul
Show you who's the leader
Bow before iconoclasts
Creators of disaster

[Pre-Chorus:]
They play with stars and sulphur just for heavens sake
To them we are a fantasy to see who's first to break
When good and evil go to war we leave it up to fate
Since time began they fought for man incurring love and hate

[Chorus:]
The Serpent and The King
The Serpent and The King
The Serpent and The King
The Serpent and The King
The Serpent and The King (the end is coming soon)
The Serpent and The King (prepare to meet your doom)
