OSKAR WIGREN 1996-12-23

BURNING AMBITION is one of my favourite Iron Maiden-songs.

It doesn^?t really sound like the typical maiden-sound.

It^?s only 2.41 minutes long and it hasn^?t got got a chorus

and that^?s very unusual for IRON MAIDEN-songs.

Lyrics:

So you think you can own me, well you^?d better just think again

You^?d better watch you steps now, woman, cause I ain^?t like those other men

There^?s something burning inside me that makes me want to be free

And when I get these feelings honey, you better keep away from me

There^?s things in life now, baby, that I know I^?ve got to do

And I need your love now, baby, to help me see it through

So you think you can own me, well you^?d better just think again

You^?d better watch your steps now, woman, cause I ain^?t like those other men

So you think you can own me, well you^?d better just think again

You^?d better watch your steps now , woman, cause I ain^?t like those other men

There^?s something burning inside me that makes me want to be free

And when I get these feelings honey, you better keep away from me
