Iron Maiden - 2 Minutes To Midnight Lyrics






Kill for gain or shoot to maim
But we don't need a reason
The Golden Goose is on the loose
And never out of season
Blackened pride still burns inside
This shell of bloody treason
Here's my gun for a barrel of fun
For the love of living death

The killer's breed or the Demon's seed,
The glamour, the fortune, the pain,
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
Don't you pray for my soul anymore?

2 minutes to midnight,
The hands that threaten doom.
2 minutes to midnight,
To kill the unborn in the womb.

The blind men shout "Let the creatures out
We'll show the unbelievers."
The napalm screams of human flames
Of a prime time Belsen feast ... yeah!
As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy
We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with our babies.

The killer's breed or the Demon's seed,
The glamour, the fortune, the pain,
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
Don't you pray for my soul anymore.

2 minutes to midnight,
The hands that threaten doom.
2 minutes to midnight,
To kill the unborn in the womb.

The body bags and little rags of children torn in two
And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you
As the madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song
To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun.

The killer's breed or the Demon's seed,
The glamour, the fortune, the pain,
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain
Don't you pray for my soul anymore.

2 minutes to midnight,
The hands that threaten doom.
2 minutes to midnight,
To kill the unborn in the womb.

Midnight
Midnight
Midnight
It's all night

Midnight
Midnight
Midnight
It's all night

  32. K.... ....

    THE COLD WAR MUSIC VIDEO. \m/

  33. K.... ....

    This what I miss about Oldschool METAL. The political & social issues on their music & videos. UP WITH THE IRONS! \m/

    K.... ....

    Krrrimmi helluva of true. I miss that too, now is all about religious bs

    K.... ....

    @BotoMamuti While new bands 2day do too much guttering & screamo vocals, heavily-distorted but out-of-tune guitars, & empty but brainless lyrics & they call it "metal". 😂

  34. J.... R....

    Maiden,to me,is a magical,mysterious and at same time perfect synergy.Situated on the border between the Apollonian and the Dionysian, they are simply outstanding 🤟💕

  35. a.... ....

    11/24/2019: Clock still agrees with Iron Maiden. Good Luck, Everyone.

  36. H.... A....

    God Bless Iron

  37. S.... G....

    I'm listening to this after midnight

  38. r.... m....

    The Cold War was still in progress and Reagan had the big red button. This song was more frightening than Number of the Beast in 1984.

  39. s.... o....

    gtavcで知ったがカッコよすぎるだろ

  40. M.... B....

    I for one am growing tired of being ruled by a bunch of satanist pedophiles. You?

  41. K.... I....

    Epicness of Heavy Metal presented and brought to you by Iron Maiden flawlessly for 40+ yrs 🤘🤘🍺🍺

  42. M.... M....

    I can't or couldn't comment on this KICK ASS song till 11:58.....
    ITS TIME MUTHA FUCKER !!!

  43. a.... ....

    Anyway I wonder how Maiden 's been allowed to keep on existing after this vid - they and the filmmaker: they depicted the internal clashes between"illuminati" factions in fuckin' 1984 and they are been left on their way. More likely, they 've been sucked into some freemasonic lodge ( not all five guys). Note a disquieting detail: in the back cover of Two Minutes to Midnight ep there's a picture of the band with their backs to the wall, and a black strip to their eyes, waiting to be shoot. 1984, the year...

  44. a.... ....

    35 years later, still two minutes to midnight. Fuck off!!!

  45. H.... F....

    Cool song and video.

  46. V.... K....

    Сейчас такое не делают

  47. T.... P....

    Song sounds Punk like the Sex Pistols but in a power metal version of it.

    T.... P....

    Power metal? You just insulted NWOBHM

    T.... P....

    @Meme Inhibitor ok

  48. J.... S....

    God save the Queen, Elizabeth. 🕆1926-2019🕆
    [Out of ammunition]

    J.... S....

    Long live the King.
    HALLOWED BE THY NAME.
    [Algorithms]
    Hello.Goodbye.

  49. G.... S....

    if anyone hears this blasting from a block away in a car than thats me after ww3 kills us all

  50. E.... N....

    Foda mano

  51. L.... S....

    I always loved the storyline to this video: Tom Clancey meets Stephen King!

  52. T.... T....

    Vida Longa Donzela!

  53. w.... f....

    O baterista era o Nicko ou o Clive Burr?

  54. L.... P....

    Iron maiden outubro. 2019 🤘🔊

    L.... P....

  56. j.... j....

    I Love Iron Maiden because they dont like"Social Democrats"scum,made by UE and the Clintons.

  57. �.... �....

    Ария-Ангелы неба и город(

  58. B.... F....

    Their greatest release, bar none.

  74. J.... D....

    This song ought to be 11 minutes and 58 seconds long

  75. K.... ....

    “To kill the unborn in the Womb”
    Sounds a lot like Dickenson was making a statement on more that war

  76. I.... t....

    Not an iron maiden fan but this album along with this song is probably their best work.

  77. e.... ....

    Fucking mason's!!!

  82. T.... T....

  83. 4.... ....

    The Atomic Doomsday clock has been set at 2 minutes to midnight for over a year now... nuclear tensions are much higher than ppl realize... the only time it was this high was in the cold war during the 80s and during WW2... shit's gonna hit the fan soon

  84. A.... L....

    Ode to George Soros.
