[Iron Maiden - Be Quick or Be Dead lyrics]
Covered in sinners and dripping with guilt
Making you money from slime and from filth
Parading your bellies in ivory towers
Investing our lives
In your schemes and your powers
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven
The thief's in your head
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven the thief in your head
Be quick or be dead
Be quick (quick, quick, quick)
Or be dead (dead, dead, dead)
See what's ruling all our lives
See who's pulling strings
See what's ruling all our lives
See who pulls the strings
I bet you won't fall on your face
Your belly will hold you in place
The serpent is crawling inside of your ear
He says you must vote
For what you want to hear
Don't matter what's wrong
As long as you're alright
Pull yourself stupid, rob yourself blind
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven
The thief's in your head
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven
The thief's in your head
Be quick or be dead
Be quick (quick, quick, quick)
Or be dead (dead, dead, dead)
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven
The thief's in your head
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven
The thief's in your head
Be quick or be dead! Be quick!
Making you money from slime and from filth
Parading your bellies in ivory towers
Investing our lives
In your schemes and your powers
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven
The thief's in your head
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven the thief in your head
Be quick or be dead
Be quick (quick, quick, quick)
Or be dead (dead, dead, dead)
See what's ruling all our lives
See who's pulling strings
See what's ruling all our lives
See who pulls the strings
I bet you won't fall on your face
Your belly will hold you in place
The serpent is crawling inside of your ear
He says you must vote
For what you want to hear
Don't matter what's wrong
As long as you're alright
Pull yourself stupid, rob yourself blind
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven
The thief's in your head
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven
The thief's in your head
Be quick or be dead
Be quick (quick, quick, quick)
Or be dead (dead, dead, dead)
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven
The thief's in your head
You've got to watch them be quick or be dead
Snake eyes in Heaven
The thief's in your head
Be quick or be dead! Be quick!
