The Beast Lyrics


You can hear the thunder
Long before the storm
But you can't hear the lion
When he stalks his preyHe's moving like a shadow
Creeping up on you
And like a siren's call
He's gonna have his wayYou'd better run, forget your pride
Don't make a stand, just step aside
If you don't have what it takes
Don't try to play you'll lose your stakesRemember this at least
It's the nature of the beast
It's the nature of the beastYou won't hear a footstep
Comin' up on you
Movin' like a snake
He's in complete controlThis killer knows his business
He is the predator
You are his only target
You're his only goalWhat will you say what will you do?

Your wildest nightmare's comin' true
There is nothing you can say
No way to change, he won't delayThis Cain will have his feast
It's the nature of the beast
It's the nature of the beastIf you play
You're bound to lose
Don't roll the dice
Don't turn the screwsJust listen to the priest
It's the nature of the beast
It's the nature of the beastIt's the nature of the beast
It's the nature of the beast

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Twisted Sister is an American heavy metal band from Long Island popularized in comedic music videos on the television channel MTV in the 1980s. Although formed as a Bowie-inspired rock band by guitar player Jay Jay French in 1973, the band's style shifted to a more heavy metal-influenced sound when Dee Snider joined the band and took over songwriting.

They fused the shock tactics of Alice Cooper and W.A.S.P., the rebellious mood of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the style of early Judas Priest, and the extravagant makeup of Kiss. Often misconceived as glam - the makeup and Dee's especially was more transformed into a horror creation, and the music is a lot more hard hitting, with rebellious or angry or violent or rock n roll or pride lyrics than love or happy lyrics. However, the band's fifth album, Love Is For Suckers - originally intended by Dee Snider to be a solo record - was plain heavy metal but drew heavy influence from 80's glam metal. To this day, members of the band do not feel Love Is For Suckers to be a Twisted Sister album.

The group's hit songs include "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock" - each from the band's third album Stay Hungry. Many of the band's hits theme around parent vs. child conflicts and criticisms against educational system. The group had a shock rock-like image and have been mislabelled as glam metal but musically they were closer to classic heavy metal bands such as Judas Priest and Motörhead than the other glam metal/pop metal bands of the era, for example Quiet Riot, Poison and Ratt.

Their hit song S.M.F. should also not be forgotten.(Sick Mother Fucker)
