(The song kicks in instantly. No fade-in. Just the CRACK of a snare drum and a raw, overdriven guitar riff. It's a simple, dirty, blues-based lick in A that repeats twice. Then the full band crashes in—bass guitar thudding the root notes, drums pounding a straight, heavy 4/4 groove. It’s loud, simple, and undeniable.) (Verse 1) Counted me out, left me for dead Spit in the dirt, messed with my head Told all your friends I was down for the count Running your mouth all over town Said my fuse was blown, my tank was dry Didn't see the fire burnin' in my eye! (Pre-Chorus) Felt the ground start to shake... Was that your big mistake... Heard the thunder in the sky... TIME TO KISS YOUR ASS GOODBYE! (Chorus) Lights go down, hear the feedback wail! Got a one-way ticket straight outta hell! Back on top, where the fury never ends! YEAH, I'M KICKING THAT ASS AGAIN! (WOOAAAHHHH!) KICKING THAT ASS AGAIN! (HEY! HEY! HEY!) C'MON! (The main riff plays twice, just guitar and drums, before the bass kicks back in for the second verse.) (Verse 2) No time for warnings, no second chance This ain't a party, this ain't no dance Got knuckles of steel and a backbone of wire Gonna set your whole damn world on fire You had your moment, you had your fun But look out now, 'cause the payback has come! (Pre-Chorus) Felt the voltage start to rise... See the white right in their eyes... Hear that engine screamin' high... GONNA DRINK YOUR WELL BONE DRY! (Chorus) Lights go down, hear the feedback wail! Got a one-way ticket straight outta hell! Back on top, where the fury never ends! YEAH, I'M KICKING THAT ASS AGAIN! (WOOAAAHHHH!) KICKING THAT ASS AGAIN! (HEY! HEY! HEY!) RIGHT! (Verse 3 - NEW) No time for mercy, no room for grace Gonna wipe that stupid look off your face I'm a ten-ton hammer, a rock-and-roll flood Gonna get it all back in sweat and in blood A shock to the system, a bolt from the blue You really didn't think I'd see this through! (Verse 4 - NEW) So let this be the lesson, let the story be told For all the cheap shots and the lies that you sold You burned all the bridges, you salted the ground Now the only thing left is my beautiful sound! Yeah, the only thing left is the noise and the sound! (Bridge 2 - NEW) (The music breaks down to a heavy, palm-muted, chugging riff. The drums are just a heavy kick and snare. The vocals are a low, menacing snarl.) You drew the line... (Pause) I crossed it. You built the wall... (Snare hit) I smashed it! You dug the grave deep in the ground... (Band starts building...) BUT IT AIN'T FOR ME! (Guitar Solo) (The band explodes back to full volume. The lead guitar, drenched in feedback and pure tube-amp distortion, unleashes a blistering solo. It's pure attitude. Full of screaming bends, double-stops, and frantic, raw pentatonic runs.) (Bridge 1) Down! But not out! Got no room for doubt! Hear the crowd! Shout it loud! GET UP! Hear the sound! Shake the ground! GET UP! ONE MORE ROUND! ONE MORE ROUND! YEAAAAAAHHHHHH! (Final Chorus) Lights go down, hear the feedback wail! Got a one-way ticket straight outta hell! Back on top, where the fury never ends! YEAH, I'M KICKING THAT ASS AGAIN! (WOOAAAHHHH!) I'M KICKING THAT ASS AGAIN! (WOOAAAHHHH!) SAID I'M KICKING THAT ASS AGAIN! (Outro) (The chorus chant "KICKING THAT ASS AGAIN!" repeats as the main riff hammers away relentlessly. The lead singer ad-libs screams over the top.) AGAIN! (Yeah!) AND AGAIN! (C'mon!) AND AGAIN! (The lead guitar starts throwing in chaotic, feedback-laden licks over the main riff. The drums get heavier, with more cymbal crashes.) I'M KICKING THAT ASS! (The entire band slams on one final, deafening power chord. It rings out for a second.) CRASH. (Silence.)
