You dont hear this on the radio...
Dark Avenger

Burning, death, destruction
raping the daughters and wives
In blood I take my payment
in full with their lives

No one can escape me
on Black Death I ride
When kissed by the sword of Vengeance
Your head lays there by your side
I take the lives of all that I once knew
The torn flesh of a slow death waits for you

Burning, death, destruction
raping the daughters and wives
In blood I take my payment
in full with their lives

I spare not land or servants
my wake is slow death there
I take their wives and daughters
They stand there watching, watching
Hoping to get my life but when I'm through
they know they must pay

Burning, death, destruction
raping the daughters and wives
In blood I take my payment
in full with their lives
with their lives
with their lives
with their lives

Manowar

It is only the second part of the song, it is about vengeance....

That's kind of like a "Do you still beat your wife" kind of accusation.
