Where‎ are‎ those‎ rockin'‎ 80s,‎ they‎ seem‎ so‎ hard‎ to‎ find
Back‎ in‎ the‎ day‎ the‎ music‎ really‎ blew‎ my‎ mind
Whatever‎ happened‎ to‎ the‎ glam?
That led me to manhood
It‎ used‎ to‎ kick‎ some‎ ass,‎ it‎ used‎ to‎ be‎ so‎ good‎

(Chorus)‎
So‎ when‎ you‎ miss‎ it‎ and‎ you‎ can't‎ resist‎ it
S.O.S.
Metal‎ S.O.S.
The‎ sound‎ of‎ metal,‎ is‎ so‎ very‎ special
S.O.S.
Metal‎ S.O.S.
When‎ it's‎ gone‎
How‎ can‎ I‎ even‎ try‎ to‎ play‎ on?
When‎ it's‎ gone‎
The‎ nights‎ and‎ the‎ days‎ seem‎ so‎ long


The‎ thunder‎ from‎ guitars,‎ it‎ used‎ to‎ drive‎ us‎ wild
The‎ death‎ of‎ heavy‎ metal,‎ it‎ makes‎ me‎ feel‎ exiled
We‎ really‎ miss‎ all‎ the‎ hair‎ bands
They were misunderstood‎
We used to rock all night as hard as we could

(Chorus)‎
So‎ when‎ you‎ miss‎ it‎ and‎ you‎ can't‎ resist‎ it
S.O.S.
Metal‎ S.O.S.
The‎ sound‎ of‎ metal,‎ is‎ so‎ very‎ special
S.O.S.
Metal‎ S.O.S.
When‎ it's‎ gone‎
How‎ can‎ I‎ even‎ try‎ to‎ play‎ on?
When‎ it's‎ gone‎
The‎ nights‎ and‎ the‎ days‎ seem‎ so‎ long

The‎ renaissance‎ is‎ here,‎ the‎ new‎ bands‎ have‎ begun
Europe's‎ leading‎ the‎ way,‎ for‎ rocker's‎ old‎ and‎ young
It‎ makes‎ my‎ heart‎ swell‎ up‎ with‎ pride
I‎ wish‎ you‎ understood‎
Banging‎ our‎ heads‎ again,‎ it‎ really‎ feels‎ so‎ good‎!

(Chorus)‎
So‎ when‎ you‎ miss‎ it‎ and‎ you‎ can't‎ resist‎ it
S.O.S.
Metal‎ S.O.S.
The‎ sound‎ of‎ metal,‎ is‎ so‎ very‎ special
S.O.S.
Metal‎ S.O.S.
When‎ it's‎ gone‎
How‎ can‎ I‎ even‎ try‎ to‎ play‎ on?
When‎ it's‎ gone‎
The‎ nights‎ and‎ the‎ days‎ seem‎ so‎ long
