Chris Exall, Clive Blake, Nick Kulmer, James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich

["Drunk Blues Ditty"]
Ooh yeah, baby, h'oh-h'oh...
Oh, I love you, Coors Light, yeah
When I get you in my guts
It makes me play way too fuckin' good, yeah...

Hey!
You guys don't mind if we play some more, do you?

[Plays riff from "No Remorse"]
Oh, fuck you, man!

Hey!
[Plays riff from "Ride the Lightning"]
You guys don't know this shit, you're fucking lying to us

What, what what what?
What you want to hear?
It don't matter, man

["So What?"]
So fucking what!

Well, I've been to Hastings
And I've been to Brighton
I've been to Eastbourne too
So what, so what?

Well, I've been here
And I've been there
I've been every fucking where
So what, so what?
So what, so what, you boring little cunt?
Who cares, who cares what you do?
And who cares, who cares about you
You, you, you, you?

I've sucked sweets
I've sucked rock
I've even sucked an old man's cock
So what, so what?

Well, I've fucked this
I've fucked that
I've even fucked a schoolgirl's crack
So what, so what?
So what, so what, you boring little fuck?
Who cares, who cares about you?
Who cares, who cares about you
You, you, you, you, you?

[Guitar solo]

So fucking what, mother fucker?
Well, this is it, my friends
One more here for you

["Battery"]
Hey! Oooh!

[Verse 1]
Lashing out the action, returning the reaction
Weak are ripped and torn away
Hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower
Battery is here to stay

[Chorus]
Smashing through the boundaries, lunacy has found me
Cannot stop the battery
Pounding out aggression, turn into obsession
Cannot kill the battery
Yeah!
Cannot kill the family, battery is found in me
Battery, battery

[Verse 2]
Crushing all deceivers, mashing non-believers
Never-ending potency
Hungry violence-seeker, feeding off the weaker
Breeding on insanity

[Chorus]
Smashing through the boundary, lunacy has found me
Cannot stop the battery
Pounding out aggression, turned into obsession
Cannot kill the battery, yeah
Cannot kill the family, battery is found in me
Battery, battery

Yeah!

[Guitar solo]

[Verse 3]
Circle of destruction, hammer comes crushing
Powerhouse of energy
Whipping up a fury, dominating flurry
We create the battery

[Chorus]
Smashing through the boundaries, lunacy has found me
Cannot stop the battery
Pounding out aggression, turns into obsession
Cannot kill the battery
That's right!
Cannot kill the family, battery is found in me
Battery, battery
Battery, fucking battery

Ooooi!

See you around, baby!
Yeahyeah!
Thank you, Mexico City!
You treated us good here, man
See you, wild mother fuckers
Metallica says, "See ya!"
