Lyrics:

Honey it^Òs getting close to midnight
and all the myths are still in town
True love and lipstick on your linen
Bite the pillow make no sound
If there^Òs some living to be done
Before your life becomes your tomb
You^Òd better know I^Òm the one
So unchain the backdoor invite me door

Chorus:
Bring your daughter, bring your daughter to the slaughter
Let her go, let her go, let her go

Honey it^Òs getting close to daybreak
The sun is creeping in the sky
No patent remedies for heartache
Just empty words and humble pie
So get down on your knees honey
Assume an attitude
You just pray that I^Òll be waiting
Cos you know I^Òm coming soon

Chorus

So pick up your foolish pride, no going back
No where, no way, no place to hide

Bring your daughter,
fetch your daughter to the slaughter.

Chorus

Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Caleb Lead Player	#1 by Caleb Kerns at Oct 17, 1975 at 6:58 AM EST
	Agreed. This was made apparent when the song was first released. You only need to read the lyrics to work out what the song is about. I think the lyrics are great. Try using them on a chavette, she'll take you for poet laureate!!!!

No Picture kevin Rhythm Player	#2 by kevin jeung at Aug 22, 1986 at 1:33 PM EST
	I read it was about the poem "To His Coy Mistress." It's a poem in which the poet is trying to get a girl to shag him.

No Picture hugo Average	#3 by hugo kippen at Feb 2, 1991 at 4:19 AM EST
	OMG this song was on 100 worst metal songs of all time on vh1.. i hate the people at vh1 for that now. this is a good song but for some people (non maiden fans) it didnt make sence Bringing your dauter to the slaughter and all.

No Picture emma Average	#4 by emma davidson at Feb 22, 1997 at 11:34 AM EST
	Didn't this song win a razzie for worst song of the year. I think I read that somewhere, not sure why, cause it's pretty cool song.

No Picture Steve Wanna Be	#5 by Steve at Oct 11, 1997 at 1:12 PM EST
	its about Anal sex duh! It seems to be about those dads that don't let there daughter date and she rebels by having sex I guess.

No Picture Coke Wanna Be	#6 by Coke at Dec 11, 2005 at 12:54 PM EST
