Metallica

Here's to metal
Here's to America
Here's to Metallica

You shoved metal up our asses
You said thanks Judas Priest for Rapid Fire
And said no thank you to Breaking the Law
You took a movement with a dumb name (NWOBHM)
Americanized it into thrash
Manic and defiant you giants Rode the Lightning
Set the course, metal should be frightening

To tell the story of Metallica is to acknowledge the American dream. It began with a friendship of the strongest kind, one built over music. Two outcasts brought together, a potential Danish John McEnroe and a solitary cornfed son of the States, brought together by cassette, 8-track, vinyl...

Beers too!
Perhaps too many?
Buds broke a couple camels backs, I'm sure

Road got Cliff Burton though
Black had it right when he said "the road is fucking hard"
And Robertson knew that the road made too many musicians into martyrs

Ulrich, Hetfield, Mustaine, Burton, Hammett, Newsted, Rock, Trujillo
