Sent from home overseas
And into the unknown
Barely landed in the jungle
Sent on first patrol..
Sundown darkness falls
Dig in for the night
Ambushed in the dawn they came
The jungle's alive
I feel – my fire starts to burn
The heat – controlling my mind
Berserk – a savage running wild
Within me the beast starts to roar..
[Chorus:]
Now I'm ready to strike!
A creature of the night
Into the fire
The flame of napalm strike
Sarge's down I'm in charge
VC's everywhere
Overrun yet order airstrike
Condemned us all to burn
Napalm from above
Burning friend and foe
Chaos on the battlefield
The jungle's on fire..
This place – it's driving me insane
Napalm – it's burning us all
This fight – no man will live to tell
Within me my blood starts to boil..
Now I'm ready to strike!
A creature of the night
Into the fire !
The flame of napalm strike..
From above the airstrike came
And it burned the world below
Napalm falling from the sky
And it leaves no man alive
I feel –my fire starts to burn
The heat – controlling my mind
Napalm – it's burning us alive
Within me the beasts final roar
Now I'm ready to strike!
A creature of the night
Into the fire
The flame of napalm strike..
And into the unknown
Barely landed in the jungle
Sent on first patrol..
Sundown darkness falls
Dig in for the night
Ambushed in the dawn they came
The jungle's alive
I feel – my fire starts to burn
The heat – controlling my mind
Berserk – a savage running wild
Within me the beast starts to roar..
[Chorus:]
Now I'm ready to strike!
A creature of the night
Into the fire
The flame of napalm strike
Sarge's down I'm in charge
VC's everywhere
Overrun yet order airstrike
Condemned us all to burn
Napalm from above
Burning friend and foe
Chaos on the battlefield
The jungle's on fire..
This place – it's driving me insane
Napalm – it's burning us all
This fight – no man will live to tell
Within me my blood starts to boil..
Now I'm ready to strike!
A creature of the night
Into the fire !
The flame of napalm strike..
From above the airstrike came
And it burned the world below
Napalm falling from the sky
And it leaves no man alive
I feel –my fire starts to burn
The heat – controlling my mind
Napalm – it's burning us alive
Within me the beasts final roar
Now I'm ready to strike!
A creature of the night
Into the fire
The flame of napalm strike..
