LYRICS
He threw down the glove you made the mistake
Of picking it up and you're gone.
A choosing of guns or fighting with swords
The choice of weapons is done.
He'll tear you apart as soon as you start
You know you don't have a chance.
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.
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.
Seeing the stain, feeling the pain
Feeling the sweat on your brow.
Oh oh, Fight for the honour
Fight for the splendour
Fight for the pleaure.
Oh oh, Fight for the honour
Fight for the splendour
Fight for your life.
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.
The Angel of Death hears your last breath
Meanwhile the Reaper looks on.
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.
