If I were alive
If I were real
Would you survive
What would you feel now?
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
If I were dead
Would my records sell?
Could you ever tell
Or is it just as well
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Could you long to love
Could you want to see
Coming down for love
Coming down for me
Will you write my songs?
Will you shake the hands?
Could you understand
It's not yours to keep
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal, heavy metal machine
Heavy metal
