Back in the Village Lyrics by Iron Maiden

Back in the Village Lyrics

    Turn the spotlights on the people,
    Switch the dial and eat the worm.
    Take your chances, kill the engine,
    Drop your bombs and let it burn.

    White flags shot to ribbons,
    The truce is black and burned,
    Shellshock in the kitchen,
    Tables overturned.

    CHORUS
    Back in the village again,
    In the village.
    I'm back in the village again.

    Throwing dice now, rolling loaded,
    I see sixes all the way.
    In a black hole, and I'm spinning
    As my wings get shot away.

    No breaks on the inside,
    Paper cats and burning barns,
    There's a fox among the chickens,
    And a killer in the hounds.

    Questions are a burden
    And answers are a prison for oneself
    Shellshock in the kitchen
    Tables start to burn.

    CHORUS

    But still we walk into the valley
    And others try to kill the inner flame
    We're burning brighter than before
    I don't have a number, I'M A NAME!

    CHORUS
