megadeth
back in the day
Where were you when it happened? Where could you be found? Were you at the front of the stage? Or in the underground  From SF out to Old Bridge NY back to LA The world of metal changed forever Back in the day Well that was back in the day  And if you weren't there It doesn't matter anyway Because you wouldn't understand Live to die and die to play Every day and place Leave a path of metal  Across the world from stage to stage Well that was back in the day  And if you weren't there It doesn't matter anyway Because you wouldn't understand In denim and leather We were all part of one force Knocked Rock and Roll on its ass And put metal on the course  Higher! Higher! Higher! Higher!  Back in the day You weren't there It doesn't mater  Because you wouldn't understand This is our way of life A life that was born free To follow orders how to live Was never meant to be Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh Peals of thunder, sheets of lighting  The power hits the stage The music was exciting The mania raged On, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh We all had the fever Our ears started to ring Feeding this wildfire Consuming everything  Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh Metal's King back then And still is this today Others imitate or challenge But it never goes away On, oh-oh, oh-oh
