Track 9 from their seventh album “Vertical Smiles” released in 1984 copyright Atco Records. It was the second and last album to feature former Uriah Heep member Ken Hensley on keyboards and the first without founding member and lead guitarist Charlie Hargrett, who left during the recording sessions over disagreements with the other band members and their management. The band continued to develop a more “metal“ sound and style on this album, moving further away from their classic Southern rock roots. The album received mostly unfavorable reviews. Recorded from CD. Written by Ken Hensley, Rickey Medlocke & Jakson Spires and produced by Al Nalli & Eddy Offord. Featuring: Rickey Medlocke – Lead vocals, lead & rhythm guitars, guitar synthesizer & background vocals Ken Hensley – Keyboards & background vocals Greg T. Walker – Bass & background vocals Jakson Spires – Drums, percussion & background vocals Special Guests: Sherri Jarell - Background vocals I've been standin' on the edge a little too long, waiting for the door to be opened Hanging on the brink, biding my time, wondering if the spell would be broken Seen a million words of wisdom lost in the wind Heard the voices of the desperate and the dreamers And I knew that any moment, they'd be callin' my name To see if I was ready for the game So I'm movin' movin' in for the kill Got a date with a man, who says he'll watch me fall Gotta take this chance, I'm movin' in for the kill This time I'm gonna have it all I'm (movin' in) and I won't make no mistakes (For the kill) I'm gonna see what I can take (Movin' in) now that my time's come around (For the kill) I'm goin' up and I'm never goin' down The title's in my pocket, the idea's in my head, I'm lookin' for a little inspiration It isn't just the money that gets me outta bed, I got to have a little motivation I ain't got no grand illusions, I'm better than the rest There's a fire in my heart that makes me wanna be the best My finger's on the trigger, know what I wanna be And everything is ready as far as I can see I'm movin', movin' in for the kill Got a date with a man who says he'll watch me fall Gotta take this chance, I'm movin' in for the kill This time I'm gonna have it all I'm (movin' in) and I won't make no mistakes (For the kill) I'm gonna see what I can take (Movin' in) now that my chance's come around (For the kill) I'm goin' up and if I'm (Movin' in) and I won't make no mistakes (For the kill) I'm gonna see what I can take (Movin' in) now that my time's come around (For the kill) I'm goin' up and I'm never goin' down, oh, yeah (Movin' in for the kill) (Movin' in for the kill) I'm movin in' (Movin' in for the kill) yeah, for the kill (Movin' in for the kill) this time I'm gonna have it all (Movin' in for the kill) I'm movin' in (Movin' in for the kill) I'm movin', movin' movin' movin'
