Thunder in the Tower - U.D.O.

Well, the lightning flashed at midnight

And the dogs did howl along

You don’t believe it — unless you’ve seen it

It was the night the thunder broke

There is no more creation

No room for good — no hope

You better cry for salvation — as

The reaper dangled by the rope

A scream for help — the morning after

They’d equalised the score

And in their minds — there’s only laughter

A smile — without a cause

And there was thunder in the tower

As the cat crept out

There was thunder in the tower

There’s no escape — no doubt

It’s been the night the birds were silent

And the town was deadly still

A curling lip — an icy grip

¡®n' bony fingers that can kill

Assembling in the tower

The payment bloody high

They tried to cheat their final hour

He’s gonna get them eye to eye

Bridge

And there was thunder in the tower

Screaming silence in the air

There was thunder in the tower

Awesome power ev’rywhere

And there was thunder in the tower

They didn’t care it’s right or wrong

There was thunder in the tower

And the reaper came along
