  • From "Live Chronicles," a 1986 album by Hawkwind recorded on the 1985 tour of their "The Chronicle of the Black Sword" concept album, based on the Michael Moorcock character Elric of Melniboné.
    Moorcock has been a long-standing associate of the group and guest performed with them on their Hammersmith Odeon shows on 3 and 4 December. The Final Fight is performed by Moorcock.
    The Final Fight lyrics:
    Ships of Chaos upwards churning
    From the nightmare realms below
    Dragons downwards, venom burning
    Now attack the malformed foe
    Lords of Hell, all pity spurning
    Cry "Revenge" and lust for death
    Their servant Elric's mind is turning
    To sweet Law's promises of rest
    Monstrous men and manlike monsters
    Battle for the end of time
    Meanwhile heavy metal songsters
    Cut themselves another line...
    Speed now! Speed to war and horror
    Speed to battle - Speed to die
    Hasten, for there's no tomorrow
    The future's merely another lie
    Dragons sigh and dragons soaring
    Marshall for their Final Fight
    Chaos creatures in torment roaring
    Seek the rule of Earth's old night
    Dragon brothers onward fly
    Chaos summons all her might
    Dragon Lord is coming nigh
    Come to fight the Final Fight
    Come to fight the Final Fight
    Writer(s): Michael Moorcock
    Horn of Fate lyrics:
    Yet year on year the greedy tide
    Swelled from the west unsatisfied
    And ever with impatient fret
    Gnawed at the human banquet
    And many with madness in their eyes
    Stared gibbering at the white hot skies
    Where foul birds circled overhead
    Shadowing the living and the dead
    Southward to where the blood red sun
    Sickens at noon in vapours dun
    He stumbles with the fear-tamed herds
    Of savage beasts...
    While homeless birds fly overhead
    Southward
    Southward
    Southward
    Southward
    Yet year on year the greedy tide
    Swelled from the west unsatisfied
    And ever with impatient fret
    Gnawed at the human banquet
    And many with madness in their eyes
    Stared gibbering at the white hot skies
    Where foul birds circled overhead
    Shadowing the living and the dead
    Songwriters: Dave Brock.
