Lyrics

[Intro]
One, two, one, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
Late at night, all systems go, you've come to see the show
Do our best, you're the rest, you make it real, you know
There's a feeling deep inside, drives you fuckin' mad
Feeling of a hammerhead, you need it oh-so bad
[Chorus]
Adrenaline starts to flow
Thrashing all around
Acting like a maniac
Whiplash
Yeah, whiplash
[Verse 2]
Bang your head against the stage, you never did before
Make it ring, make it bleed, make it really sore
In a frenzied madness, with your leathers and your spikes
Heads are bobbing all around, hot as hell tonight
[Chorus]
Adrenaline starts to flow
Thrashing all around
Acting like a maniac
Whiplash
Yeah, that's whiplash
[Verse 3]
Here on stage, the Fractal noise is piercing through your ears
Kicks your ass, kicks your face, exploding feeling nears
Now's the time to let it rip, let it fuckin' loose
Gathered here to maim and kill, this is what we choose
[Chorus]
Adrenaline starts to flow
Thrashing all around
Acting like a maniac
Whiplash
[Bridge]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey
Whiplash
[Verse 4]
Show is through, the metal's gone, time to hit the road
'Nother town, 'nother gig, again we will explode
Hotel rooms, motorways, life out here is raw
We never stop, we never quit 'cause you're Metallica
[Chorus]
Adrenaline starts to flow
Thrashing all around
Acting like a maniac
[Outro]
Hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
