Scorpions Hell-Cat with Lyrics in Description

Track 6 from their fourth album “Virgin Killer” released in 1976 copyright RCA Records. The album was their first to gain attention outside of Europe. It was very popular in Japan but still wasn’t able to generate serious interest in North America. It featured some of their best songs and further defined the heavy sound and style they would become known for. Critics have since praised it as an influential album in the development of “heavy metal.” The original album cover was one of the most controversial ever created and was designed for maximum shock value. It featured a naked ten year-old girl and several countries demanded an alternate cover be used. Nowadays, the image is considered borderline child porn, and in 2015, a Swedish court ruled that it is illegal child pornography. After a couple of attempts to remove it, the image is still available on Wikipedia, but it’s banned from YouTube. Written by Ulrich Roth and produced by Dieter Dierks. Featuring: Klause Meine – Lead vocals Ulrich Roth – Lead & rhythm guitars & background vocals, lead vocal on “Hell-Cat” & “Polar Nights” Rudolph Schenker – Rhythm guitars & background vocals Francis Buckholz – Bass & background vocals Rudy Lenners – Drums & percussion Fire in her eyes (burn) Perfume from the sky Fingers cold as ice (freeze) Devil in disguise Well, she’s a, she’s a Well, she’s a, she’s like a She’s a (hell-cat, hell-cat, hell-cat, hell-cat) (She’s gonna scratch) You know that guy with Piccadilly eyes talked to the French boy but didn’t realize When I’m over-eating, can’t start the beating He tried to get a wife but couldn’t stay alive Well, you know that lad with the rubber cat Paints his fingers yellow, blue, and red And you also know that she’s a liar Knowing only her desire
