I
Accept Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't wait much longer
Revenge is overdue
You took your chance and screwed me
Way back in '82

Inside my hate is burning
My brain's on overload
My innocence is over
Now I'm ready to explode

I'm gonna be your nemesis
I like it when you scream
I'm the mother of your nightmares
Got a contract to redeem

This one's for you
Right in your face
Just sit on this
And spin around
This one's for you
Your time is up
Stick it, shove it
Where the sun don't shine

You've always been a wise guy
You played at being rough
I stripped away your masquerade
And now you ain't so tough

You're a coward with no backbone
I will crush you with my heel
Put the scrapings in my blender
Add some bourbon, what a meal

I'm gonna be your nemesis
I like it when you scream
I'm the mother of your nightmares
Got a contract to redeem

This one's for you
Right in your face
Just sit on this
And spin around
This one's for you
I hold the ace
Stick it, shove it

This one's for you
Right in your face
Just sit on this
And spin around
This one's for you
A bunch of fives
Stick it, shove it

This one's for you
Right in your face
Just sit on this and spin around
This one's for you
No one but you




Stick it, shove it
Where the sun don't shine

They say I won't make it to the top of the hill
Won't take the fruit off the tree
And ev'rybody says I'm out for the kill

They're all laughing at me
They're all laughing at me

I'm a rebel, rebel
Don't you just know it
I'm a rebel, rebel
And they're all laughing at me

They say I'm a danger to the public and all
I only wish they would see
I'm just the product of a screwed up world
But they're all

They're all laughing at me
But they're all laughing at me

I'm a rebel, rebel
Don't you just know it
I'm a rebel, rebel
Don't you just know it
I'm a rebel, rebel
But' they're all laughing at me

Never ever wash my old blue jeans
And brush the smile off my face
But still I'm a member of the

Human race
Human race
Human race
Human race

They played this song not sure where and before the song was done they became famous just like that .

@subsanity667

Very punk sounding song, the most Oi sounding metal song ever. I can listen to all the early Accept stuff all day long.

@Dennis-ff2pf

They made the 2 guitar attack famous

@pflaffik

And then Metal history was made. Udo was really something back in the early era, he was just so... so Udo! Theres no word for him. Epic band!

@westgoten
