Virus Lyrics - Iron Maiden
Review The Song (3)
[Harris/Gers/Murray/Bayley]
There's an evil virus that's a threat to all of mankind
Not state of the art, a serious state of the mind
The muggers, the back stabbers, the two face elite
A menace to society, a social disease.
Rape of the mind is a social disorder
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order
Watching beginnings of social decay
Gloating or seering at life's disarray
Eating away at your own self esteem
Pouncing on every word that you might be saying
Rape of the mind is a social disorder
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order
Superficially smiling a shake of the hand
As soon as the back is turned treachery is planned
Rape of the mind is a social disorder
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order
Watching beginnings of social decay
Gloating or seering...at life's disarray
When every good thing?s laid to waste
By all the jealousy and hate
By all the acid wit and rapier lies
And every time you think you're safe
And when you go to turn away
You know they're sharpening all their papers knives
All in your mind
All in your head
Try to relate it
All in your mind
All in your head
Try to escape it
Without a conscience they destroy
And that's a thing that they enjoy
They're a sickness that's in all our minds
They want to sink the ship and leave
The way they laugh at you and me
You know it happens all the time
All in your mind
All in your head
Try to relate it
All in your mind
All in your head
Try to escape it
The rats in the cellar you know who you are...x4
Or do you?x4
Watching beginnings of social decay...
There's an evil virus that's a threat to all of mankind
Not state of the art, a serious state of the mind
The muggers, the back stabbers, the two face elite
A menace to society, a social disease.
Rape of the mind is a social disorder
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order
Watching beginnings of social decay
Gloating or seering at life's disarray
Eating away at your own self esteem
Pouncing on every word that you might be saying
Rape of the mind is a social disorder
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order
Superficially smiling a shake of the hand
As soon as the back is turned treachery is planned
Rape of the mind is a social disorder
The cynics, the apathy oneupmanship order
Watching beginnings of social decay
Gloating or seering...at life's disarray
When every good thing?s laid to waste
By all the jealousy and hate
By all the acid wit and rapier lies
And every time you think you're safe
And when you go to turn away
You know they're sharpening all their papers knives
All in your mind
All in your head
Try to relate it
All in your mind
All in your head
Try to escape it
Without a conscience they destroy
And that's a thing that they enjoy
They're a sickness that's in all our minds
They want to sink the ship and leave
The way they laugh at you and me
You know it happens all the time
All in your mind
All in your head
Try to relate it
All in your mind
All in your head
Try to escape it
The rats in the cellar you know who you are...x4
Or do you?x4
Watching beginnings of social decay...

instead of "There's an evil virus that's threatening mankind"
it's "There's an evil virus that's a threat to ALL OF mankind."
I listened to the song closely and turned up the volume and I SWEAR I heard that.
Error in Vipers review | Reviewer: Bruce Dickinson | 8/25/07
it ACTUALLY does say "there's an evil virus that's threatening mankind"
Threatening all mankind doesnt fit in at all, if you listen to it, it wouldnt work or fit in the time he sings it.
