Judas Priest - Devil's Child

From their 1982 album Screaming for Vengeance.
Lyrics:
Hypnotize me, mesmerize me
Feel my will-power slip
Light my fire with cold desire
Losing all my grip

Eat my diamonds (eat my diamonds)
Drinking all my gin
Feast your eyes on (feast your eyes on)
A whole lotta sin

Oh no you're so damn wicked!
You got me by the throat.
Oh no gotcha claws stuck in me
You never let me go
I believe you're the devil
I believe you're the devil's child

Took my dreams and now it's seems you're
Nothing but a liar
Smash and grab at all I had
Build my funeral pyre
Stop pretending (stop pretending)
Got me growin' old.
Your tormenting (your tormenting)
Fit to snap my soul

Oh no you're so damn wicked!
You got me by the throat
Oh no gotcha claws stuck in me
You never let me go
I believe you're the devil
I believe you're the devil's child

You took my heart
And left it blown to smithereens
I gave my body as a slave
You cut my flesh
And drank my blood that poured in streams
I'm left here broken and ashamed

Goin' under, hear the thunder
Death defying grace
Your condition breeds ammuntion
Shoots me in the face
Vicious talkin' (vicious talkin')
Stabs me like a knife
Scratched and bruised (so abused)
I'm a human sacrifice

Oh no you're so damn wicked!
You got me by the throat
Oh no gotcha claws stuck in me
You never let me go
I believe you're the devil
I believe you're the devil's child

Can people not just come here to listen to music. The entire reason they came in the first place. I hate it when people come here to sit and argue with everyone else.

Just a few variations, but I hear "TNT" -chords mixed with some "Fly on the Wall" sound, and a bit of the lyrical "C.O.D.(Care of the Devil) off "For Those about to Rock"

@skateNappreciate Which AC/DC song... Going through them in my head, no matches. Yes there are drums, guitars and singing... just all different. If anything has a AC/DC vibe it would be the British Steel album, but then it's getting to who came first?

[Paganguy1]

Every JP song is better live, because Rob is like a god of metal singing, Also, for three days after every JP concert my ears rang like singing bells... "What's that? Sorry, I can't hear you, been to a Judas Priest Concert.... fuck you, mostly...".

@fortheloveoftunes it's not ment as an attack....and I'm not a dude.

[fortheloveoftunes]

[goenigoegoe83]

[evilzoog]

Love the Priest, but this is the one of like two good songs on this album (the other being "Electric Eye"). Stained Class or fuck off.
