Judas Priest - Monsters of Rock

It started many years ago
Out of the black country
The seed became the embryo
For all on earth to see
Like stealth, the word spread mouth to mouth
All corners of the land
And soon the thing began to grow
And get right out of hand

From the concrete jungle
The smoke, the dirt, the grime
Could not contain the hunger
It grew and grew in time, into a

Monster, monster of rock
They could never bind it
It vowed to reach the top

They took the sound across the seas
The people stood in awe
At last the sound had come to them
That they'd been waiting for

And millions roared and millions cheered
This spectacle on stage
And everyone went crazy as it bellowed out in rage

From the concrete jungle
The smoke, the dirt, the grime
Could not contain the hunger
It grew and grew in time, into a

Monster, monster of rock
They could never bind it
It vowed to reach the top, oh
Monster, monster of rock (rock)
They could never bind it
Impossible to stop
Monster of rock

From the concrete jungle
The smoke, the dirt, the grime
Could not contain the hunger
It grew and grew in time, into a

Monster, monster of rock (rock)
They could never bind it
It vowed to reach the top, oh
Monster (monster), monster of rock
They could never bind it
Impossible to stop (stop)

Monster (monster), monster of rock (rock)
They could never bind it
It vowed to reach the top
Monster (monster), monster of rock
They could never bind it
Impossible to stop (stop)
Monster (monster)
