Anvil - Winged Assassins Lyrics

Artist: Anvil

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

Machines made for killing at mach speed and more
Sleek in design and loaded for war
Side-winding missiles, heat-seeks and sparrows
Strafing squadrons cause havoc and terror

Winged assassins, seek their prey

Camouflage colors impair observation
Insignia painted depicting its nation
Defying detection at low altitude
Penetrate, attack, evade and elude

Soaring death, taking lives
No escape, widows weep

Winged assassins, seek their prey

Radar is sweeping and scanning the skies
Searching out targets with infrared eyes
Enemy forces appear on the screen
Computers lock in, all systems are green

Formation, orders, permission to arm
Closing in to make the kill

Trigger in hand, blood lust in his heart
The pilot is ready to play out his part
Under wing stores await a demand
Releasing the arsenal upon his command

Soaring death, taking lives
No escape, widows weep

Permission is given to unleash the power
Rockets home in, strike and devour
Wreckage falls helpless rolling in flames
Another life wasted in some general's games

Task complete, honors awaiting heroes
Painted scrap, awarding murder

Winged assassins, seek their prey
