1. Electric Toccata
Music by Johann Sebastian Bach
2. Lightning Ball
Music & Lyrics by Paul Vuocolo
Lead: Vuocolo
Verse 1
Lightning Ball! Why do you call to me?
Is it because I’m the one who can see?
Is it ‘cause I’m evil or the good in me?
Or because I am taunted by those who’ve seen you? (Can’t you see?)
Show me how you make yourself burning bright
Show me how you make yourself airtight
Now that I’ve seen you will you float away?
And just come back to haunt another day?
Pre-chorus 1
Try, try to find the Lightning Ball in this cloud
But it’s nowhere to be found…
Precious Light(ning Ball)
Chorus 1
It’s the end that is near
It’s the fate that is clear
It’s the sun that don’t shine
It’s the moon without rise
It’s the black that is cat
A heart that attacks
In the end…
It’s the Curse of the Lightning Ball
Verse 2
Lightning Ball! Do you live in the sky?
Do you float through the clouds or exist in my mind?
Ha-ha! Now I’ve caught you feel your warmth in my hands
Trapped with me, now we’ll see…
Who will rule this land
Pre-chorus 2
Try, try to find the Lightning Ball in the sky
And now you’re mine, yes, all mine…
Precious Light(ing Ball)
Chorus 2
It’s the end that is near
It’s the fate that is clear
It’s the sun that don’t shine
It’s the moon without rise
It’s the black that is cat
A heart that attacks
In the end…
Bridge
“White, bluish ball, come floating out of that room”
“I was just staring, I was in awe”
“It was just a very loud bang and poof it was gone!”
Lead: Vuocolo
Pre-chorus 3
Try, try to find the Lightning Ball in this cloud
But it’s nowhere to be found…
Precious Light(ning Ball)
Chorus 3
It’s the end that is near
It’s the fate that is clear
It’s the sun that don’t shine
It’s the moon without rise
It’s the black that is cat
A hear that attacks
In the end…
It’s the Curse of the Lightning Ball
3. Dungeon Theme
Music by Koji Kondo
4. Medusa
Music & Lyrics: Charlie Benante, Scott Ian, Frank Bello, Joey Belladonna, Dan Spitz, Jon Zazula
Lead: Vuocolo
Endless curse, blood runs cold
Evil stare, will turn your flesh to stone
Land of doom, world of sin
All subside, don’t venture near
The island where she lives
No, she’ll suck you in
Destroyer of life, Demon
Oh I’m ready to strike, Gorgon
Serpents bride, the end awaits
Human prey, no swords or armor
Shield you from your fat
Hey you, you can’t escape
Pre-chorus 1
Wicked smile, full of lies
Head of snakes, approach her cave
But don’t look in her eyes
No, her eyes
Chorus 1
Medusa, she’s staring at you
Medusa, with her eyes
Medusa, she’s staring at you
Medusa, with her eyes (seducing you)
Evil witch, cast her spell
Seducing you, she’ll take you to
The very depths of hell
Pre-chours 2
Cannot move, no eyes to see
A statue now, for all eternity
Medusa laughs at you
Ha ha! And you’re her slave
Chorus 2
Medusa, she’s staring at you
Medusa, with her eyes
Medusa, she’s staring at you
Medusa, with her eyes (seducing you)
Lead: Vuocolo
Medusa, she’s staring at you
Medusa, with her eyes
Medusa, she’s staring at you
Medusa, with her eyes (seducing you)

Well, it’s Christmas time, pretty baby
And the snow is falling on the ground (Christmas, Christmas)
Well, it’s Christmas time, pretty baby
And the snow is falling down (Christmas, Christmas)
Well, you be a real good, little girl
Santa Claus is back in town (Christmas)
Got no sleigh with reindeer
No sack on my back
You’re gonna see me comin’
In a big black Cadillac
Oh-oh, it’s Christmas time, pretty baby
And the snow is falling on the ground (Christmas, Christmas)
Well, you be a real good, little baby
Santa Claus is back in town (Christmas)
Hang up your pretty stockings
And turn off the light
Santa Claus is comin’
Down your chimney tonight
Oh-oh, it’s Christmas time, pretty baby
And the snow is falling on the ground (Christmas, Christmas)
Well, you be a real good, little baby
Santa Claus is back in town

Verse 1
Well, I’m sick and tired of hearing you wine
About the burdens that aren’t on your mind
Cry and preach what’s wrong and what’s right
But you never seem to engage in a fight
All for one and one for himself
Alone you won’t stand tall
But you make no amends or promises
Your full of it
I’m sick of it
I don’t wanna hear anymore
Pre-chorus
Now my face turns red
Now your face turns blue
Don’t open yourself to criticism
Don’t try and crucify you
Chorus
Why do you feel the need?
Is there something I should know?
Your thoughts are safe with others
Others with good intent
And now I bid you farewell
Your boat’s without a sail
Saturation Point
Lead: Lee
Verse 2
Here’s a tip to lift your burdens
Just shut your stupid mouth
Take a number and get in line
You’re not the only fool
You can’t talk the talk
Without walking the walk
Still you make no amends or promises
Your full of it
I’m sick of it
I don’t wanna hear anymore
Pre-chorus
Now my face turns red
Now your face turns blue
Don’t open yourself to criticism
Don’t try and crucify you
Chorus
Why do you feel the need?
Is there something I should know?
Your thoughts are safe with others
Others with good intent
And now I bid you farewell
Your boat’s without a sail
Saturation Point
Lead: Lee
Chorus
Why do you feel the need?
Is there something I should know?
Your thoughts are safe with others
Others with good intent
And now I bid you farewell
Your boat’s without a sail
When you feel the need
Don’t bother to let me know
Your thoughts are safe with others
Others with good intent
And now I bid you farewell
Your boat’s without a sail
Saturation Point!

Release: December 18, 2020
Format: Digital
Tracklist:
- Midnight Train (5:38)
Buy or Stream "Midnight Train"
Verse 1
Drifting off, half-past midnight
Neuron Railroad, the guiding light
Obsession to some but not to me
It’s a game I play and admission’s free
Invincibility with me
I’m the man
Can’t you see?
I rule this dream!
Pre-chorus
Well I want you and I need you
But I can’t do a thing about it
It’s a psycho-dilemma
My heart starts pounding I clinch my pillow!
Chorus
You want to touch what you can’t feel (Ride the Midnight Train)
You want to see what can’t be seen (Ride the Midnight Train)
Verse 2
Bordering on insanity
This love I chase will consume me
I’m bridging the gap between space and time
But as I cross I lose my mind
And now that I have you in my sights
Gonna lose my life, gonna lose it tonight!
Pre-chorus
Well I want you, and I need you
But I can’t do a thing about it
It’s a psycho-dilemma
My heart starts pounding, I clinch my pillow!
Chorus
You want to touch what you can’t feel (Ride the Midnight Train)
You want to see what can’t be seen (Ride the Midnight Train)
You want to hold but this ain’t real (Ride the Midnight Train)
Yeah, you want to touch but you can’t feel (Ride the Midnight Train)
Bridge
And now that I’ve found you I can rest my mind
And now that I have you I can lose my life
Oh, how ironic
That a piece of time brought us together
I reach into my pocket and she screams
“Come back to me!”
Lead: Vuocolo
Hold on!
I’m almost there!
Can’t you see?
It’s me! (Ride the Midnight Train)
Hold on!
I’m almost there!
Can’t you see me? I’m on the Midnight Train! (Ride the Midnight Train)
You want to touch what you can’t feel (Ride the Midnight Train)
You want to see what can’t be seen (Ride the Midnight Train)
You want to touch, you want to touch but you can’t feel (Ride the Midnight Train)
You want to see, what can’t be seen, C’mon ride my train (Ride the Midnight Train)
