Part A: What's he saying?

I have no idea what Judas Priest is saying. I can't even begin to make out the words. My official answer will be that I think he's saying "Now come out to die". That's pretty morose, I know, but that's what it sounds like to me.

Part B: The Hidden Message in Reverse

MATLAB Code:

%Jacob Pfister
%HW1.2

clear
clc

[wavdataf srate bps] = wavread('jpforward.wav'); %read in data

wavplay(wavdataf, srate); %play forward

wavdatar = flipud(wavdataf); %flip data

wavplay(wavdatar, srate); %play reverse

wavwrite(wavdatar, srate, bps, 'JPSubliminalInReverse.wav'); %write file

Comments:

Again, I have no clue what Priest is saying, but maybe he's saying "It's the seventh life". Clearly, he must be talking about his cat, and, as everyone knows, cats have 9 lives, so I think he's encouraging his cat to use up another one, since, if it's only his seventh life, he'll still have 2 more left to live. That makes sense to me.
