Whiplash (Live at Espace Ballard, Paris, France – February 9th, 1984)

[Intro]

Come on, Paris!

Ready for some fucking whiplash?

One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]

Late at night, all systems go, you've come to see the show

We do our best, you're the rest, you make it real, you know

There's a feeling deep inside that drives you fuckin' mad

A feeling of a hammerhead, you need it, oh, so bad

[Chorus]

Adrenaline starts to flow

You're thrashing all around

Acting like a maniac

Whiplash

[Verse 2]

Bang your head against the stage like 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, it's hot as hell tonight

[Chorus]

Adrenaline starts to flow

You're thrashing all around

Acting like a maniac, come on

[Verse 3]

Here on stage, the Marshall noise is piercing through your ears

It kicks your ass, kicks your face, exploding feeling nears

Now's the time to let it rip, let it fuckin' loose

We're gathered here to maim and kill

This is what we choose

[Chorus]

Adrenaline starts to flow

You're thrashing all around

Acting like a maniac

[Bridge]

Show 'em, Kirk

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge 2]

Whiplash

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]

The show is through, the metal's gone, it's time to hit the road

Another town, another gig, again, we will explode

Hotel rooms and motorways, life out here is raw

But we'll never stop, we'll never quit, we're Metallica

[Chorus]

Adrenaline starts to flow

You're thrashing all around

Acting like a maniac

[Outro]

Hey

Thank you
