During World War II the military ordered 
the formation of a commando troop out of
seven convicts.  With scientific help these
seven were to be trained to a super combat
unit by genetic manipulation.
The attempt failed, the mutants directed 
all their strength and superiority
against their commanders.  The 
"Grapes of Fear"
had to be annihilated.  Each of them was sent
off into space in a self-igniting
rocket.  Due to mechanical failue one rocket
and its passenger were
"Locked Out"
and condemned to float
through space forever
"Across the Universe".
Five long years went by until he was finally
rescued by 3 extraterrestrial wizards
"Wizard Force".
All his feelings and his enitre purpose of being
were dominated by his strong desire for revenge.
The wizards turned his hatred into positive
feelings and gave him power for
"Positive Retaliation".
He is named SCANNER and given the planet
GALACTOS as a homebase for his mission: to
create a balance of forces on earth and thus
secure the survival of mankind.  He travels to 
earth on "Warp 7"
to investigate the current situation.  After his
return to Galactos he builds five androids and
sends them off into five different points in time
during the last 50 years to gather information on
the aggressive behaviour of humans on the
"Killing Fields".
The SCANNER's plan is to base his androids on 
earth.  Their perceptions are to be transmitted to
the SCANNER by "R.M.U."
(Reticular Module Unit),
which allows him total control of his mission: the
creation of a perfect world: "Terrion".



Warp 7 (4:27)

When I started on this mission
There was no starlight.
No more rays are blazing in my face.

I'm the spearhead of the team
That's waiting at my base.
For the control of that distant ball.

Roaring high on a silver streak.
I know the task, 
Switching deflectors to on.

Like an eagle, I descend
My intention is to scan.
The whole success depends on my research.

Data junction must be complete.
I'm waiting for the night 
To send my creatures into the universe.

Roaring high on a silver streak.
Thundering again at Warp 7.
A human body would have been torn 
Warp Seven - a million times gale force ten
Warp 7!!!

Solo

Chorus

Still it feels like home - Warp 7  
Still I am a son - Warp 7
But I can't return - Warp 7
Though I'm the chosen one - Warp 7
If I touched the ground - Warp 7
I'd lose all my might - Warp 7
Better enter space
And dive into the sky.

Roaring high at Warp 7

Terrion (4:53)

I see a time, a time without hatred and riots.
Sunrising in cities where people can live without fear.
This is why we have come, right from the stars.
Searching for answers that show, show the way to stay alive.
Listen, now we make you see, how you can survive.

It's a place, a place called Terrion
In a time of love and freedom
Such a place that we call Terrion
Can be real when mission is done.

There's a price for the world, that we told.
You must climb over the wall of hate.
Is it so hard to keep your anger down?
Answer yourselves, it will show, show the way to stay alive.
Listen so that you can see how you will survive.

Chorus

Solo

It takes years for this world to unfold.
You've got to reach for the stars, shining bright.
We're gonna stand aside, and lead the way.
We must be sure that you find, find a way to stay alive.
Tell it so that we can hear, how you will survive.

Locked Out (6:23)

It's so serious, they destroyed all of us
All my comrades, they have gone.
I'll endure the pain, this hate I cannot tame.
Sole survivor alone in space.

I was changed to kill the enemy.
But they launched me into space.

Chorus:
Locked Out!
Five lonesome years.
Locked Out!
They don't know I'm still here.
Locked Out!
For two thousand days.
Locked Out!
So much time to hate!

Here our fate is just like yours
It's restrained by doubtful cures
We will help you to be free.
To return and make them see.
(2x)

Solo 

Here our fate is just like yours
It's restrained by doubtful cures
We will help you to be free.
To return and make them see.

I deliberate how I can infiltrate.
All my vengeance must come true
No steel barricades could save 'em from my rage.
Whole desire born of hate.

Now I'm set free from non-gravity.
And I must no longer stay...

Locked Out!
Five wasted years.
Locked Out!
They don't know that I'm here
Locked Out!
Still I am alive
Locked Out!
Much time to build up hate.

Chorus:
Thousand light years we had overcome
Across the universe.
It's a long way to the landing ground,
The mission gets real.

Human appearance, electric inside.
Solar batteries, and microchip brain.
Android angels, on wings of laser
Taking life in their hands.

Life! Light! Life! let us out on the loose
Hide! Hide! Among the living
Life! Light! Life! curing mankind's disease
Then I saw come to lose*
Right, right,
Far away.

R.M.U. (5:46)

We have come, we traveled space, through the galaxies.
From a place that's named Galactos, led by R.M.U.
Behind your back, the unseen focus all-electric hate.
Avoiding warfare's deadly tactics, rescue infantry.
We act superior

Chorus:
Like a hawk in the sky
Programmed to trace.
We can watch ya
Like a hawk in the sky
We zoom into ya
Like a hawk in the sky
Invisible strike
We can watch ya
Like a hawk in the sky
We keep the balance, lead the way.

Contradictions, rotten morality, did you ever learn?
Hypocrites and puny humans if there's a chance one day
You better pray.  (You better pray.)
We observe each single movement 
Feel our prescence everywhere.
In your houses, out on the streets, perpetually we stare.
Hidden from your sight.

Chorus

Stop the wars!
No need to be brave man.
Cease the fights, now!

Grapes of Fear (3:58)

In the last days of the second world war
When human debris covered half of the blue ball
It was difficult

To keep the military alternative weapon
From the public and hide away the shame
From the father's eyes.

They always knew that things could turn negatively
But precautions were secretly taken,
By the ministry.

Seven mighty juggernauts, 
out of control loss of reason
Manipulated DNA, 
Who's guilty of decay.
Time runs out to wipe the dirt
Look for a primer to blur
Fourteen eyes behind armoured glass
Staring full of hate

Look at the Grapes of Fear

No one here goes anywhere
Never reveal it, better conceal it
Take the files and make trash
A situation of despair

Somebody has got to calm the crowds
They conceive it, the press can feel it 
They won't feel what's happening to them
Nation's faithful servants come undone mellow Grapes of Fear

Solo

The Grapes of Fear

The staff is quiet, the poison's out
The sky is lit by the flame of those who died
In nowhere's distant space
Another menace lies ahead

Rumble! "Open the door"
 
Screaming "I've seen it"
Staring eyes search the blackened sky
Faces pale and wait
They don't know one victim has survived
Fate longs for revenge, oh earth beware - don't pick the grapes of fear

Retaliation Positive (4:25)

Sirs, now that you've saved me
I think I must explain
I am mankind's dreadful legacy
Inheritance of those who fear.

And you, you look so strange
It seems you've got the might
So reinforce my iron hull
And help me to return

DO YOU KNOW - I was left alone
Hate kills - it's deep down in my bones
Think hard - Wish I was dead
Hate kills - Please tell me why I'm bad

Hate, kills, hate
Hate, kills, hate

I always took the wrong way, 
When I made my choice.
Invincible body, destructive mind,
Decisions of a God damned fool.

I - Lived a life of criminal desire
I - Was a *duelling fates gold man*

Break the wall
But there's still so much pain

Leave your hell - So many times I've tried
AND NOW YOU KNOW - Too late to turn
Hate kills - Still my bowels burn
Think hard - Can't go ahead
Hate kills - a chance to start again.

Solo

Break the wall
You did wipe off the pain

Leave your hell - You did boost me up
AND NOW YOU KNOW - no longer alone
Hate kills - feel like made out of stone
Think hard - I strike out the past
Hate kills - But how long will it last?

Killing Fields (4:23)

They are soldiers, too blind to see
Fighting for their own damnation
See the honor and pride in their chests
Targets feeding guns

There's too much hate, to hear the warning
On Killing Fields, where nobody wins.

No denying that they are the strongest
Blowing out their mother country
Independence, what is the value
What has made them pay the price?

It's much too late to hear the warning
On Killing Fields where nobody wins.

All men of steel, and hearts of ivory
See their comrades, side by side
Under fire, seems like eternity
A game, sinister
Their souls are sold, where is the ecstasy?
Where are bold? Times change.
Is there a need, for all the wasted youth?
They call it WAR!

Solo

Their souls are bold, a newfound ecstasy
The guns are sold, values change.
The sirens howl, a short infinity
The air force whispers.
The war was cold, now its has turned to flames
Nobody knows the reason why
Is there a need, for all this wasted life?
There must be more!

They never wait, to hear the warning.
On Killing Fields, where nobody wins.

There's a fight on the hill, 
Even time is standing still,
But they never will know the score.

War is just a game of tools
Still it's the same.
Still it's the same.

War is made by leading fools
Nothing remains,
Nothing remains.

Wizard Force (4:25)

Eternal life, man's all time desire
This time I feel like a winner.
I don't cling to the past, the bad times have gone.
Bound by the spell of the wise.
My heart is full of energy
Cured by holy mystery

I got the might, to trace all evil
And every shadow it hides.
Balance of power, my aim has come clear
Salvation from star is in sight.
My heart is full of energy
Cured by holy mystery.
One day I'll be back.

Chorus:
Bound by the spell of wizard gods
They turned the bad into good.
One day, powered by Wizard Force,
They changed my life, and my mind.

Planet of rock never known it before
A real that will be top secret
The only guarantee for man to survive
*A headquarter* of destiny.

My heart is full of energy
Cured by holy mystery.
One day I'll be back.
