Sheriff Of Huddersfield (Iron Maiden)


Life in a city living in L.A.
Is a long way from Huddersfield town
The back of the Rainbow's a long way from heaven
But that's where he get's his pork pie
Limos and ladies they're
driving him queasy
Rugby and cricket's unknown
Baseball and football they're making him lazy
Your fan club says "Rodney come home"

The Sheriff of Huddersfield locked in his castle
Look down on Hollywood Hills
The Sheriff of Huddersfield locked in his castle
You're our own Hot Rod on wheels

A good game of arrows a few dozen barrels
The Nautilus rusts in the yard
But for Yorkshire he's yearning
but because he's earning
He'll always live in L.A.
A custom made wallet that stays in his pocket
And never comes out to pay bills
He's winning at poker and playing the Joker
And he always cheats when he deals

Hello, let me introduce meself!
My name is Rodney. I'm immensely strong.
When I were a lad,
I could lift up five navies on an end of a shovel.
The reason I never took martial arts
because I was immensely fearsome
and I'd probably kill everybody
I came into contact with it.
I was phenomenally strong.
Pride and ego, my lads, pride and ego,
is what makes the world rotate.
And everybody knows the centre of the universe
is Huddersfield but I don't live there anymore.
I live in Los Angeles. It's great!... I think

Rufus the red has a crane by his bed
To wrench himself up in the morn'
But if you dare to tread at the foot of his bed
You'll wish you'd never been born.
A bear with a sore head we don't mean your forehead
He slumbers for most of the day
Wide eyed and legless
baked beans for breakfast
Your problem Rodney L.A.

Space Station No. 5 (Montrose)


Start with the sun
And move on out
The future's in the skies above
The heavens unfold
And a new star is born
Space and time makin' love

Oh what a time we had
Living on the ground
I've moved to Station Nš 5
See you next time around
Next time around

As far you want, as close as you need
It's all in the mind, you know
This old world hasn't really seen it's day
It's here, time to go

Remember when it was so clear
We were young, but the memory still remains
To pick fruit from a tree
Fish from the seas
Now nothing's left here, but the stains
Well I can't cry no more
Can only be glad
There's other places we can be
If the time suits you right
I'm leaving tonight
Come fly away
With me!

That Girl (FM)


The words she said turned out why
desperation fills her eyes
Hold her in your arms don't let go

When you taste defeat,
when you loose again
Fight and win, never give in
Hold her in your arms don't let go

That girl you need
Gonna knock you off your feet
That girl, you know
She'll never let you go

Can you hear her call, call out your name
Think about you, cry without you
Hold her in your arms, don't let go

Can you taste defeat,
when you loose again
Fight and win, never give in
Hold her in your arms don't let go
