Kill 'Em All track listing | ||
|
"Jump in the Fire" is the fourth track on Metallica's 1983 album Kill 'Em All. The lyrics of this song are written from the devil's point of view who's watching the people who are killing each other, and so he is sure that they will all get themselves in hell. They "Jump in the Fire". The original lyrics, featured on the No Life 'Till Leather demo dealt with sexuality, and were written by Dave Mustaine.
The song was released as Metallica's first ever album single, accompanied by fake live performances of "Phantom Lord" and "Seek and Destroy", which were alternate studio recordings with sounds of a crowd overdubbed in.
