Verse 1 (2:00)<br/> <br/> Rolling blackouts hit the nation<br/> Mysterious lights hang in the sky<br/> Is this a symbol of salvation or a sign that we will die?<br/> These alien illuminations<br/> Ensnare the minds of those who see<br/> Becoming objects of fixation to the most terrifying degree<br/> <br/> Chorus x2<br/> Close encounters of the thrash kind!<br/> Five tones to control your mind<br/> Close encounters of the thrash kind<br/> Total Alien control of time<br/> <br/> Solo<br/> <br/> Verse 2<br/> Shrill notes are broadcast on all spectrums<br/> Quick power chords with with mighty bends<br/> The sound of nickel strings and plectrums with distortion turned to ten<br/> We intercept these strange transmissions<br/> And ponder over their intent<br/> Should we heed this as a warning or invitation to ascend?<br/> <br/> Chorus x2<br/> Close encounters of the thrash kind!<br/> Five tones to control your mind<br/> Close encounters of the thrash kind<br/> Total Alien control of time<br/> <br/> Bridge 1<br/> <br/> We line up stacks of amplifiers<br/> With volume cranked far as it goes<br/> And with sustained attack we start to broadcast back<br/> The music of our foes<br/> Their ships descend on our position<br/> As we repeat their fearsome sounds<br/> And as we start to shred, our hearts are filled with dread<br/> As the mothership comes down<br/> <br/> Solos/Instrumental<br/> <br/> Bridge 2 (6:28)<br/> The ship’s door slowly opens<br/> We stare these creatures in the face<br/> On either side our eyes go wide<br/> Seeing members of an unknown race<br/> Our amplifiers start to tremble<br/> The very earth begins to quake<br/> Their music swells, our guitarists fail<br/> And we reach a sudden break<br/> <br/> Verse 3<br/> The aliens seem primed and ready<br/> Beads of sweat roll down your skin<br/> A battlecry makes nerves unsteady as the invaders’ charge begins<br/> First contact knocks you to the concrete<br/> An alien extends a limb<br/> You feel the pounding of your heartbeat as it flashes you a grin and throws you back into the din<br/> <br/> Chorus x2<br/> Close encounters of the thrash kind!<br/> Five tones to control your mind<br/> Close encounters of the thrash kind<br/> Total Alien control of time<br/> Close encounters of the thrash kind x4

Foreign vessels silent and discreet<br/> Sent to mark the planet to collect<br/> Alien invasion near complete<br/> But information relayed incorrect<br/> Cryptic symbols burned into the wheat<br/> Mystifying patterns all in circles<br/> Signalling the overhanging fleet<br/> That conquest of this world will have no hurdles<br/> Landing troops descend<br/> Citizens await<br/> Promising violence we run<br/> <br/> Into the crop!<br/> Circle pit!<br/> Into the crop!<br/> Circle pit!<br/> <br/> Into the<br/> Fields of grain the invaders appear<br/> Without hesitation we attack<br/> Neither friend nor foe show any fear<br/> Forces collide with a mighty smack<br/> Our intention violently clear<br/> Fighting tooth and nail we stand our ground<br/> Injuries on either side severe<br/> Bodies of both shapes fall all around<br/> Crimson red our blood<br/> Ultraviolet theirs<br/> Screaming defiance we run<br/> <br/> Into the crop!<br/> Circle pit!<br/> Into the crop!<br/> Circle pit!<br/> <br/> Never shall<br/> We surrender, we defend our land, our honour<br/> Rip and rend until the end, a righteous slaughter<br/> In the corn, our fury borne on space invaders<br/> We are sworn to show them scorn and make them hate us<br/> <br/> [solo 1 and solo 2]<br/> <br/> Into the crop!<br/> Circle pit!<br/> Into the crop!<br/> Circle pit!<br/> We defend earth!

[V1]<br/> We have arrived as the darkness descends with a fistful of metal to play<br/> And we expect some ultra-violence in the old-school american way<br/> The legacy of our morbid visions is an epidemic of violence<br/> Extreme aggression a release from the agony of your tortured existence<br/> <br/> [CHORUS]<br/> Thrashaholics! Heed the call of the riff<br/> Bang your heads in unison and jump into the pit<br/> Feel the fire! Igniting in your soul<br/> Let the music fill you and let go of your control<br/> Now listen up! If you think ill of our kind<br/> And understand in spirit we are all intertwined<br/> An alliance spanning countless years<br/> A brotherhood built on blood, sweat and beers!<br/> <br/> [V2]<br/> Bonded by blood now, you join the new order and start spreading the disease<br/> No place for disgrace here, that’s why hell awaits, tonight you may do as you please<br/> Enter the thrash zone, it’s time to leave scars - to stay out would be heresy<br/> Eternal devastation is the law and possessed by fire you will be<br/> <br/> [CHORUS]<br/> [SOLO]<br/> [BRIDGE]<br/> <br/> Act III begins as among the living now spreads the calm before the storm<br/> Pleasures of the flesh are taking over as the pit is twisted into form<br/> Breaking the silence, this forbidden evil spreads through countless souls of black<br/> Filled with malicious intent now the bodies burst forth like a zombie attack<br/> <br/> [V3]<br/> Show no mercy and kill 'em all, we’re obsessed by cruelty<br/> The morning after will be endless pain, that’s a terrible certainty<br/> But a state of euphoria will sustain you with power from hell<br/> And here tonight under the influence, you will find it a pleasure to kill
