Overlord - Lyrics - Jag Panzer

Jag Panzer came together in late 1981, being inspired by the onslaught of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. The original line-up consisted of Harry Conklin on vocals , Mark Briody , John Tetley who played the bass, and Rick Hilyard as the drummer. The band was known as Tyrant in its first incarnation. They soon had to change their name, because another such named band existed in California.

King of all he purveys Lord to many and no one Prince and a fool flow in his veins Outlaw running free Chasing gold and glory Women he meets never forget Master of the seas, tyrant of the waves Sailing the seas for gold Riding the windswept waves Living just as he pleases No care for the code Scourge of the seven stars Salty in disposition Reputation precedes him Be it friend or foe to the overlord The world is playground Inviting all to attend Where he rests his head is where it resides Famous and infamous man, testing the waters of glory The winds they lead him wherever he roams Master of the seas, tyrant of the waves Sailing the seas for gold Riding the windswept waves Living just as he pleases No care for the code Scourge of the seven stars Salty in disposition Reputation precedes him Be it friend or foe to the overlord Dead men tell no tales Living men live no longer The duchess she cries "Off with his head" A chest of gold awaits the strongest and the courageous Yet thieves are found at the end of a noose Master of the seas, tyrant of the waves Sailing the seas for gold Riding the windswept waves Living just as he pleases No care for the code Scourge of the seven stars Salty in disposition Reputation precedes him Be it friend or foe to the overlord
