Jerry was a Metal Head

  • Original Release:

    • Jerry was a metal head and now he’s settled down
    Bought himself a house and a car in a small town
    Married the first girl he met and had a couple of kids
    Still works as a security job, but now its for nothing

    Jerry told me once that he would never give up the sound
    Would always listen to metal and wear his mullet proud
    Jerry always said he would never settle down
    Drink down his 30 pack and pass out on the ground

    metal head
    Jerry was a metal head and now Jerry’s not
    Jerry was a metal head but now Jerry’s lost
    Jerry was a metal head and now Jerry’s not
    Jerry was a metal head but now Jerry’s lost
    Jerry was a metal head
    Jerry was a metal head
    Jerry was a metal head
    metal head

    Jerry’s wife told him he had to settle down
    Stop listening to metal and get a job in town
    Jerry sold his truck and cut his mullet off
    Now he listens to Diamond Rio instead of Testament

    Now Jerry goes to work every fucking day
    To support two kids instead of buying CDs
    Everyone says Jerry finally grew up
    But Jerry says he feels like he is lost

    metal head
    Jerry was a metal head and now Jerry’s not
    Jerry was a metal head but now Jerry’s lost
    Jerry was a metal head and now Jerry’s not
    Jerry was a metal head but now Jerry’s lost
    Jerry was a metal head
    Jerry was a metal head
    Jerry was a metal head
    metal head

    Last time I saw Jerry he looked broken and beat
    Got drunk on 2 beers while talking about his kids teeth
    Jerry just needs big guitars and 2 bass drums
    There’s not enough energy in the music of Alabama

    Jerry just sat there and looked at his feet
    Jerry said he wished he would have never given in
    Everybody says Jerry’s living good
    But Jerry lost it all for the American Dream

    metal head
    Jerry was a metal head and now Jerry’s not
    Jerry was a metal head but now Jerry’s lost
    Jerry was a metal head and now Jerry’s not
    Jerry was a metal head but now Jerry’s lost
    Jerry was a metal head
    Jerry was a metal head
    Jerry was a metal head
    Jerry was a metal head

    Come crawling FASTER
    Obey your MASTER
    Your life burns FASTER
    Obey your MASTER

    666 The number of the beast
    Hell and fire is sworn to be released
    666 The number of the beast
    666 The one for you and me
