Lightning Strikes

(Supa)

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

The only song in Aerosmith history that credits Brad Whitford playing but NOT Joe Perry.
