"The Four Horsemen (Live at the Lyceum Theatre, London, UK – Dec. 20th, 1984)"

By the last breath, the fourth winds blow

Better raise your ears

The sound of hooves knock at your door

Lock up your wife and children now

It's time to wield the blade

For now, you've got some company

Horsemen are drawing nearer

On leather steeds they ride

They've come to take your life

On through the dead of night

With the four horsemen ride

Or choose your fate and die

Oh yeah, yeah

You've been dying since the day you were born

You know it's all been planned

The quartet of deliverance rides

A sinner once, a sinner twice

No need for confession now

'Cause now you've got the fight of your life

Horsemen are drawing nearer

On leather steeds they ride

They've come to take your life

On through the dead of night

With the four horsemen ride

Or choose your fate and die

Oh yeah, yeah

Time has taken its toll on you

The lines that crack your face

Famine, your body, it has torn through

Withered in every place

Pestilence for what you've had to endure

And what you have put others through

Death, deliverance for you, for sure

Now there's nothing you can do

London

You gotta show me those hand up here, please

C'mon, hey, hey, hey, hey

You up there, you lazy bastards, c'mon

So gather 'round, young warriors, now

And saddle up your steeds

Killing scores with demon swords

Now's the death of doers of wrong

Swing the judgment hammer down

Safely inside armor, blood, guts and sweat

Horsemen are drawing nearer

On leather steeds they ride

They've come to take your life

On through the dead of night

With the four horsemen ride

Or choose your fate and die

Oh yeah

Alright

Thank you very much
