Back In The Village Lyrics - Powerslave - Iron Maiden

Turn the spotlights on the people, 

Switch the dial and eat the worm, 

Take your chances, kill the engine, 

Drop your bombs and let it burn. 

White flags shot to ribbons, 

The truce is black and burned, 

Shellshock in the kitchen, 

Tables overturned. 

Back in the village again, 

In the village, 

I'm back in the village again. 

Throwing dice now, rolling loaded, 

I see sixes all the way. 

In a black hole, and I'm spinning 

As my wings get shot away.

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Questions are a burden 

And answers are a prison for oneself 

Shellshock in the kitchen 

Tables start to burn. 

Back in the village again, 

In the village, 

I'm back in the village again. 

No breaks on the inside, 

Paper cats and burning barns, 

Theres a fox among the chickens, 

And a killer in the hounds. 

Questions are a burden 

And answers are a prison for oneself 

Shellshock in the kitchen 

Tables start to burn. 

Back in the village again, 

In the village, 

I'm back in the village again.

But still we walk into the valley 

And others try to kill the inner flame 

We're burning brighter than before 

I don't have a number, I'M A NAME! 

Back in the village again, 

In the village, 

I'm back in the village again. 

Back in the village again, 

In the village, 

I'm back in the village again. 

Back in the village 

I'm back in the village 

I'm back in the village again.
