Real Metal

You thought that metal was a trend

Got some news for you my friend

Anvil music is what I am

Really don't give a damn

So if you think that we suck

I really don't give a fuck

I defy all the rules

Make the skeptics look like fools

Listen close I'll tell you why

I'll play my music till I die

My life is what I dedicate

To what I love not what I hate

Real metal

Like addiction till death do part

Metal music straight from the heart

Not for money just for the cause

Love to hear the fan's applause

One hit wonders fly by night

The eternal oversight

It's true Anvil the real McCoy

It's my passion, pride and joy

Real metal

From Hard'N'Heavy to Pound for Pound

From Worth the Weight to Speed of Sound

Donnington, Wacken, Brugge, in between

Still so much left unseen

All the songs all the places

All the fun in people's faces

To the diehard I'm glad your there

If not for you I'd be nowhere

Real metal
