I am going through my old mixtapes and came across one with a collection of rock songs. On it I found a bizarre mystery song that seems to be titled "Left, right". It's a heavy rock song performed by a singer whose voice reminds me of Eiríkur Hauksson. It seems to be about a man who keeps having nightmares about loose women (or possibly hookers) marching through his head like an army. I have tried googling the apparent title and some snippets of lyrics, but have found nothing. Can anyone tell me what band or singer recorded this song?

Here are the verses leading up to the chorus and the first chorus (as far as I can make it out):

"Left right, left right (rep. 4 times)

Tonight is the [or 'a') night of dreams,
a full moon, a different scene,
town in action, hearts on fire,
ooooh, I wanna get burned.

I get out, I hit the streets,
I'm hypnotized by the beat,
and I'm feeling strong, I follow the sound,
cause the reason (or 'rhythm') is right.

I feel the tension and I'm on the hook,
pretty girls everywhere you look,
a tempting smile, a tiny wink,
could leave me (something I can't make out, possibly 'sweating') and on the brink.

Mama said 'Better listen, son,
you like the girls and you want some fun,
but they play with love (something I can't make out),
do you wanna get burned?'
And I said, 'Mama, keep it cool,
I'm old enough, I know the rules,
I feel the (something, something, something),
'cause I'm already burned'.

I feel I'm working up a cold sweat,
strange visitors in my head,
here they come (something) into the (could be 'row')
licking lips, swaying hips, oh my god!

Chorus:
Left right, left right (rep. 2 times),
They walk in rhythm now,
Left right, left right (rep. 2 times)."

Thank you.

Dunno, but the chorus sounds like a Horst Wessel drinking ditty.
