Winged Assassins Lyrics - Anvil

Machines made for killing at mach speed and more 

Sleek in design and loaded for war 

Sidewinding missiles, heat-seeks and sparrows 

Strafing squadrons cause havoc and terror 

Winged Assassins - Seek their prey 

Camouflage colours impair observation 

Insignia painted depicting its nation 

Defying detection at low altitude 

Penetrate, attack, evade and elude 

Soaring death - Taking lives 

No escape - Widows weep 

Winged Assassins - Seek their prey 

Radar is sweeping and scanning the skies 

Searching out targets with infrared eyes 

Enemy forces appear on the screen 

Computers lock in, all systems are green 

Formation - Orders, permission to arm 

Closing in - To make the kill 

Trigger in hand, blood lust in his heart 

The pilot is ready to play out his part 

Underwing stores await a demand 

Releasing the arsenal upon his command 

Soaring death - Taking lives 

No escape - Widows weep 

Permission is given to unleash the power 

Rockets home in, strike and devour 

Wreckage falls helpless rolling in flames 

Another life wasted in some general's games 

Task complete - Honours awaiting heroes 

Painted scrap - Awarding murder 

Winged Assassins - Seek their prey
