Saint Ironside

Verse:
As the Northmen came
And pillaged his land
Laid his home to waste
And chained his hands
They took him a slave
Bound to serve for life
But he wasn't one to kneel
So he learnt to fight
Wielding swords and axes
Like he once did a cross
Wearing plated armor
Like robes worn at mass
The pagan ways were now
His new course of life
As he earned his freedom
Under Viking skies
Chorus:
The pagans marched on with no fear
With swords drawn, axes in the air
The priest rode and fought by their side
They called him Saint Ironside
Verse:
Sailing on longboats
Raiding distant lands
Seeking riches and slaves
At the king's command
Plundering churches
Battling Saxons
Breaching all their defenses
Beating all contraptions
But Floki could never
Trust the Christian saint
And conspired to bring
His life to an end
The priest was in prayer
Floki bashed in his head
Before the holy cross
The priest met his death
Chorus:
The pagans marched on with no fear
With swords drawn, axes in the air
The priest rode and fought by their side
They called him Saint Ironside
Interlude:
Odin and Tyr
Thor and Freyr
Haunt my nights
Yet I feel no fear
Help me Lord
Who are these gods
I've seen the sparks
From the anvil of Thor

Gazing out the window
Of this dreary office room
I'm suffocated, nauseated
Brain dead in this tomb
This life is not for me
Brain cells are all cramped up
I wanna plug in my guitar
And crank the amps up
Bang your head
Rock it out
Shout it loud
With the crowd
I'm ready to rock
And break the speed of sound
I'm here to burn this place to the ground
There's no escape from
The grind of existence
Rock n roll is the only drug
My only assistance
Drab rooms can't confine me
I'm a nuke carrying payload
I'm always locked and loaded
Ready to explode
Bang your head
Rock it out
Shout it loud
With the crowd
I'm ready to rock
And break the speed of sound
I'm here to burn this place to the ground
