"Woe to you, Oh Earth and Sea. For the Devil sends the Beast with wrath..

[Greeby]

"Woe to you, Oh Earth and Sea, for the Devil sends the
beast with wrath, because he knows the time is short...
Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the
beast for it is a human number, its number is Six hundred and
sixty six."

I left alone my mind was blank
I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind
What did I see can I believe that what I saw
that night was real and not just fantasy

Just what I saw in my old dreams were they
reflections of my warped mind staring back at me
'Cos in my dream it's always there the evil face that twists my
mind and brings me to despair

The night was black was no use holding back
'Cos I just had to see was someone watching me
In the mist dark figures move and twist
Was this all for real or some kind of hell
666 the number of the beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released

Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised
As they start to cry hands held to the sky
In the night the fires burning bright
The ritual has begun Satan's work is done
666 the number of the beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight

This can't go on I must inform the law
Can this still be real or just some crazy dream
But I feel drawn towards the evil chanting hordes
They seem to mesmerise me ... can't avoid their eyes
666 the number of the beast
666 the one for you and me

I'm coming back I will return
And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn
I have the fire I have the force
I have the power to make my evil take it's course

Btw, I do not believe Shrub is the antichrist. Because that'd be too obvious and he's too stupid

5. The most literate band in Heavy Metal

I mean, songs about the Napoleonic Wars? Edgar Allen Poe stories? WWI Fighter Pilots? Julius Caesar? Genghis Khan? Ya gotta go to school just to understand what Conan the Librarian is singing about.

I don't listen to them as much anymore, but for old time's sake: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:

That felt good. Gonna do it again: :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:

6. Awsome song..

Awsome band..

I still listen to Maiden from time to time.

Best stuff was way early on in my opinion.

Killers was my favorite album by far. Murder in the Rue Morgue - still one of my favorite tunes.
