    Lyrics:
    Are you high tonight, are you feeling right,
    Cause I need you now, like I never did before,
    Is it hard enough, is it loud enough
    Cause if you don't approve, you can use the door
    Armed and ready, I gotta gun sight trained on you
    I'm in overdrive, and I feel alive,
    Got everything I need, and that ain't all,
    Got a thing to do, I want to do for you,
    I want to see you jump like hell when I call
    Armed and ready, I gotta spotlight trained on you
    Armed and ready, don't let me down tonight
    Are you high tonight, are you feeling right,
    Cause I need you now, like I never did before,
    Is it hard enough, is It loud enough
    Cause if you don't approve, you can use the door
    Armed and ready, I got my gun sight trained on you
    Armed and ready, don't let me down tonight
    Are you high tonight, are you feelin' right,
    Is it hard enough, is it loud enough,
    Are you high!

      In the period metal hardly got on UK radio. It was the Tommy Vance show, one hour a week on Radio One or nothing on BBC, and it was worse on TV until MTV years later. Maybe the occasional play by John Peel. He could get away with playing anything, and wasn't bound by the BBC's playlist censorship whatever. There wasn't much room for German metal, after Led Zepp and Iron Maiden and Saxon and Thin Lizzy, just because of the shortage of airtime. I don't know how it was in other countries. And the music industry is unforgiving to old bands which weren't the biggest names on the planet, so people have to find out by accident or word of mouth.
