Napalm Nights - Nocturnal Breed

Hordes of bombers coming inn

Lungs filled with fire — At war again

Midnight in the firing line

Death-baptism — Jumping the mines

Hanoi Hannah screaming out her lies

VC’s like insects swarming in like tides

The jungle-rot eating flesh alive

«Agent orange — Fire at will»

Running — Praying — And dying

Deployed into this jungle Hell

Searching — Blasting — Through fire

As we climbed with mad abandon

Every god-damned hill

Sundown in paradise through melted eyes

Pouring molten lava from the skies

Arc-lite over Ho-chi-minh

Senses sharpened — Like knives to win

It’s been our fate since we came to base

To pick the Joker and not the Ace

From Da’Nang to the D.M.Z

«Through the endless rain»

The first and only — The last of many

In the A’Shau-Valley we rot — Cored from bone

Napalm Nights

Now bring the morphine to blur out this Hellish sight

Napalm Nights

Peeling the melting skin off your burning children

«Release the napalm»

Storms of napalm coming inn

Carpet bombing — At war again

Striking first and strike them fast

Skin burnt to crisp — And bones to black

Mekong Delta-style — Bagged and tagged

Rolled in napalm and burning rags

We’ll take this hill — Now raise that flag

The magic dragon — The napalm roar

Bullet benediction — Here the reaper call

I saw the death-card Joker

On that faithful final night

As re-enforcements came in the cloak of napalm

Upholding the banner

This yellow fever will not stop

We’re stuck up here — On Hill-937

Coming in fast and low

Like a carpet of certain death

A blast of napalm winds and iron-ashes

Running for the choppers

G.I's on the Huey-skids

As the Việt cộng came swarming out of their fox-holes

Through crotch-rot and jungle-death

Bugs and Charlies' everywhere

It never broke our backs as we ran with the Hellhounds

Come in Whiskey-company

Scorched flesh and skin burned black

For every limbless marine and fire-walker

… We salute you
