Iron Maiden — The Duellists

[Verse 1] He threw down a glove, you made the mistake Of picking it up, now you're gone The choosing of guns or fighting with swords The choice of weapons is done [Pre-Chorus 1] He'll tear you apart, as soon as you start You know you don't have a chance [Chorus] Oh, oh, fight for the honour Fight for the splendour Fight for the pleasure Oh, oh, fight for the honour Fight for the splendour Fight for your life [Verse 2] Ready to start, the duel begins The best man wins in the end A lunge and a feint, a parry too late A cut to the chest and you're down [Pre-Chorus 2] Seeing the stain, then feeling the pain Feeling the sweat on your brow [Chorus] Oh, oh, fight for the honour Fight for the splendour Fight for the pleasure Oh, oh, fight for the honour Fight for the splendour Fight for your life [Instrumental Break 1:49-5:16] [Verse 3] The fighting resumes, a silence looms The swordsmen move against each other A cut and a thrust, a parry, a blow A stab to the heart and you're down [Pre-Chorus 3] The Angel of Death hears your last breath Meanwhile, the reaper looks on [Outro] Oh, oh, fought for the honour Fought for the splendour Fought for the pleasure Oh, oh, fought for the honour Fought for the splendour Fought to the death
