Lightning Strikes – Aerosmith

The boys and the dukes are ready to rumble
the word on the street some heads are gonna tumble
blades gonna flash when the street gangs clash
in the avenue tonight
when the lightning strikes

zip gun John his finger is itchin’
oh the lids gonna blow up in hell’s kitchen
it’s an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth
they’re so ruthless when they fight
when the lightning strikes

there’s a free-for-all in the parking lot
over who will rule the streets
and the night explodes when the cops bring on the heat
and the chains they crash like thunder
while the weak ones all retreat
gotta draw first blood or they’ll read your funeral rights
when the lightning strikes

it’s dog eat dog when ya meet your rival
in the combat zone it’s your means of survival
gonna get last licks on a suicide blitz
on a cloak and dagger night
when the lightning strikes
when the lightning strikes
can’t you hear the thunder
