Iron Dragon - Electric Six

It took ten years to get there

Twenty more to come back

To your war

And when I fired up my only flare

You instructed your battalions

To ignore

It was the longest game of chicken;

Who would be the first

To blink first?

Thank God I had a bucket to get sick in

Your injection couldn’t

Make me fell worse

From the hills I saw you in your courtyard

Crazed for merry drink

And the nights here give me

Too much time to think

To think about the day

You hitched your horse to a rusty wagon

I hitched my wagon to a dead horse

Iron Dragon, won’t you stay as a matter of course?

Iron Dragon, won’t you stay 'til the end of the wars?

If I could only find a star to put my wish in

I’d be the main attraction

That you’re due

I remember the words of your magician;

«You gotta melt down fifty jokers

To make a fool»

From here i see you fortifying

For a cold December

And it hits me now

That you might not remember

Remember the time

You hitched your horse to a rusty wagon

I hitched my wagon to a dead horse

Iron Dragon, won’t you stay as a matter of course?

Iron Dragon, won’t you stay 'til the end of the wars?

How will this be recorded?

Will it be a big display

In the museum?

Will my loyalty be rewarded?

Or will they just say

«must've sucked to be him»?

Whoever finds my scribbles

Well I hope you read to the end

Cause in the end

I reunite with my old friend

You hitched your horse to a rusty wagon

I hitched my wagon to a dead horse

Iron Dragon, won’t you stay as a matter of course?

Iron Dragon, won’t you stay 'til the end of the wars?

Save the world, save the world

I’m the new Michael Jackson

Save the world, save the world

Save the world

Save the world, save the world

I’m the new Michael Jackson

Save the world, save the world

Save the world
