lyrics in progress: unnamed Motorplanet song

When Holger of the Motorplanet blues-rock band recently sent new compositions so I could create lyrics for them there were actually three of them. Two I have already finished. The third song is an up-tempo Rock song with three verses, and neither chorus nor bridge. The lines are actually shouted rather than sung. A verse has eight lines of three to five syllables each (six could also work if necessary). Here is the pattern for the first verse:
. . x - x
- x - x
- x - x
x - x
x - x
x - x
x - x
. . x - x

whereas each character stands for one syllable, '.' means a short note, 'x' means a stressed syllable. This song could be done in a 4 - 3 - 4 - 3 pattern - even 3- 3- 3 -3 would work, but varying between 3 and 5 (or even 6) syllables makes the song quite more exciting.

As for a subject I have not the faintest idea as yet. The song sounds a bit angry or agressive to me. If it should be about love it most certainly would not mean a tender love. Got to think about it ...
