[Verse 1]
Come on in, welcome, enter
We've got your front row center
For the freak show parade
Everybody want's to be you
But I know you see right through the sad mascaraed
You wrap your arms around me like a wire
You reach into my soul, pull out the fire

[Chorus]
When I come undone I know you're the only one
Who could touch me when I call out your name
When I come undone I know you're the only one
Who could put me back together again

[Verse 2]
You've got what it takes to make me
So won't you come and shake me out of this haze
All to know those dreams you're selling
God knows, man, he's not telling
He's had better days
I wait to hear a voice above me calling
You dragged me to my knees but I'm still falling

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
I can't close my eyes, can't hide the tear
I feel the earth beneath my feet disappear
I'm out of words, I'm out of time
Give me your hand, reach out for mine
You wrap your arms around me like a wire
You reach into my soul, pull out the fire

[Chorus]

Def Leppard

In 1977, Rick Savage, Tony Kenning, and Pete Willis were students at a secondary school in Sheffield, England. They had a band called Atomic Mass. Lead singer Joe Elliott joined later that year, and suggested a new band name. Within 10 years, that name, Def Leppard, became one of the most recognised in English rock music. To date, they have released more than 40 singles.

Def Leppard was a definitive part of the new wave of British heavy metal bands in the late 1970s. Their first three albums had tremendous momentum, each outselling the one before. Then, after the release of Pyromania in 1983, drummer Rick Allen lost his arm in a car accident. The band stuck by him through his recovery and retraining.

When Def Leppard came back, they came back hard. Their fourth album, 1987’s Hysteria, was a hard rock masterpiece that took the world by storm. By then the music video had matured as a film style, and Hysteria’s singles and videos had enough pop, sex, colour, and glam to put it over the top. Hysteria was one of the biggest-selling albums of the 1980s.
