Holy Mother of God

you've got to go faster than that to get to the top

dirty old mountain

all covered in smoke, she can turn you to stone

so you better start doing it right



you're halfway up and you're halfway down

and the pack on your back is turning you around

throw it away, you won't need it up there, and

remember

better start doing it right.

on your left and on our right

crosses are green and crosses are blue

your friends didn't make it through

out of the night and out of the dark

into the fire and into the fight

well, that's the way the heroes go

ho! ho! ho!



through a crack in Mother Earth

blazing hot, the molten rock

spills out over the land

and the lava's the lover who licks your boots away

hey! hey! hey!

if you don't want to boil as well

b-b-better start to dance

do you want to dance with me



the music's playing, the notes are right

put your left foot first, and move into the light

the edge of the hill is the edge of the world

and if you're going to cross you better start

doing it right

better start doing it right



let the dance begin
