Pounding the world like a battering ram
Forging the furnace for the final grand slam
Chopping away at the source, soon the course will be done
Leaving a trail of destruction that's second to none
Hammering anvils, screaming muscle and might
Shattering blows, crashing row beating fright
Fast devastating and desolisating the curse
Blasting the cannons of truth through each man of this earth
Chorus Only Found On '98 Live Meltdown
Rapid Fire! Between the eyes
Rapid Fire! Terrifies
Rapid Fire! Before you die
Rapid Fire!
Wielding the axe, comes the one culmination
That's always seemed curtain to bring down the curtain on greed
  ( K.K. )  [ 1:58 - 2:05 ]
Sifting the good from the bad, it's the age for the rage of the dogs
Which must fall to the just and be free
  ( Glenn )  [ 2:12 - 2:19 ]
Now grate for the vandals, who trampled and sampled
Till this place conditioned brought forth demolition to war
  ( K.K. )  [ 2:26 - 2:33 ]
The slipping and sliding, corrosive subsiding
That withered and waned, till the world seemed all drained fills the bay
  ( Glenn )  [ 2:41 - 2:48 ]
Pounding the world, like a battering ram
Forging the furnace, for the final grand slam
Chopping away at the source, soon the course will be done
Leaving a trail of destruction, that's second to none
Second To None!
