Megadeth Album

[No lyrics]

(Music, lyrics: Mustaine)

"I don't want to set the world afire..."

Red flash clouds
Choking out the morning sky
They said it'd never come,
We knew it was a lie
All forms of life die now,
The humans all succumb
Time to kiss your ass goodbye,
The end has just begun

Distorted figures walk the street,
It's 1999
Weeds once underneath the feet
Have grown to vines
Bodies melted like a candle,
A land without a face
No time to change your fate,
No time left, it's too late

The aresenal of Megadeth can't be rid of they said
And if it comes the living will envy the dead
Racing for power and all come in last
No winning, first stone cast

This falsehood wordly peace
Its treaties soon will cease
No one will be left to prove
That humans existed
Maybe soon the children
Will be born open fisted
We all live on one planet
And it will all go up in smoke

Too bad they couldn't see this lethal energy
And now the final scene, a global darkening

Dig deep the piles of rubble and ruin
Towering overhead both far and wide
There's unknown tools for World War III
Einstein said, 'We'll use rocks on the other side'

(Music, lyrics: Glen Matlock, Johnny Rotten, Paul Cook, Steve Jones)

Right now
I am an Antichrist
And I am an anarchist.
Don't know what I want but I know how to get it,
I want to destroy, possibly?
'Cause I want to be Anarchy.
No dog's body.

Anarchy for the USA
It's coming sometime, it may be.
I give a wrong time, stop a traffic light.
Your future dream is a shopping spree.
'Cause I want to be anarchy. In the city.

Of many ways to get what you want
I use the best, I use the rest
I use the enemy
I use anarchy

'Cause I want to be anarchy.
It's the only way to be.

Is this the MPLA?
Is this the UDA?
Is this the IRA?

I thought it was the USA,
Or just another country
And other cunt-like tendencies.

'Cause I want to be anarchy,
You know what I mean?
'Cause I want to be an anarchist,

(Music: Mustaine; lyrics: Mustaine, Ellefson)

Forgive me father for I have sinned
I'm a child of the air, I'm a witch of the wind
And I'm still wide awake... Mary Jane

From the earth up through the trees
I can here her calling me
Her voice rides on the breeze
Oh, it's haunting me

No, I can't get away
No, there's no escape
If I know I'm going crazy
I must not be insane

Beware my friends as you pass by
As you are now so once was I
As I am now so you must be
Prepare my friends to follow me

Forgive me father for I have sinned
I'm a child of the air, I'm a witch of the wind
Fingers gripped around my brain
No control, my mind is lame
I'm in the astral plane and I'll never be the same
Never, never... never

Beware my friends as you pass by
As you are now so once was I
As I am now so you must be
Prepare my friends to follow me

It hurts so bad I can't breathe

(Music, lyrics: Mustaine)

"Pull over, shithead, this is the cops!"

Full tank, pockets lined with cash
Full throttle, gonna rip some ass.
Drive all day and through the night,
Romance the road, winding left to right.

The stars above guide me, the moonlight is free.
A feeling inside me and the whole world to see.

Driving fast makes me feel good,
The speed of light trapped under my hood.
Breaking laws 'cause there's nothing to do.
Driving the interstate, stopped for a 502.

Hundreds of miles rolled off today.
Signs lose their meanings, minutes tick away.
Dirt roads to interstates, I must have drove them all.
Cigarettes and burgers, caffeine and alcohol.

Drive until daybreak, always on the go.
Life on the freeway, night shift 'til dawn patrol.

Driving fast makes me feel good,
The speed of light trapped under my hood.
Breaking laws 'cause there's nothing to do.
Driving the interstate, stopped for a 502.
Stopped for a 502, next time it's gonna be you.

Stars above guide me
This feeling inside me
I drive until daybreak.
Life on the freeway is Hell.

(Music, lyrics: Mustaine; lyrics: Mustaine, Ellefson)

In my hour of need
Ha, you're not there
And though I reach out for you...
Wouldn't lend a hand
Through the darkest hour
Grace did not shine on me
It feels so cold, very cold
No one cares for me

Did you ever think I get lonely?
Did you ever think that I needed love?
Did you ever think to stop thinking
You're the only one that I'm thinking of?

You'll never know how hard I tried
To find my space and satisfy you too.

Things will be better when I'm dead and gone
Don't try to understand
Knowing you, I'm probably wrong

But oh, how I lived my life for you
Still you'd turn away
Now as I die for you
My flesh still crawls as I breathe your name
All there years I thought I was wrong
Now I know it was you
Raise your head, raise your face, your eyes
Tell me who you think you are, who?

I walk, I walk alone into the promised land.

There's a better place for me
But it's far, far away
Everlasting life for me in a perfect world
But I gotta die first,
Please God send me on my way

Time has a way of taking time
Lonliness is not only felt by fools
Alone I call to ease the pain
Yearing to be held by you
Alone, so alone, I'm lost, consumed by the pain
The pain, the pain, the pain

Won't you hold me again?
You just laughed, ha ha, bitch!
My whole life is work built on the past
But the time has come when all things shall pass
The good has passed away.

(Music: Mustaine, Ellefson; lyrics: Mustaine)

You take great pride
In never having lived up to anything
Lie, steal, cheat and kill,
A real bad guy
Your daddy is a wino
And you mommy's quite insane
From altar boy to sewer rat,
You don't give a damn
You're sister is a junkie,
Gets "it" any way she can
Your brother's a gay singer
In a stud leather band
Your girlfriend's got herpes
To go with your Hep and AIDS
There ain't one person you know
You ain't ripped off yet

Look deep in the mirror,
Look deep into its eye
Your face is replaced,
as creature you despise
But I know what you're made of,
It ain't much I'm afraid
I know you'll be lying
Until your dying day

Make up your stories,
The truth's so hard to say
Brain is numb and your tongue
Will surely dig your grave
Your mind is sickly
From Alzheimer's disease
And decadence and debauchery
Killed your memories

You're a liar, liar, liar, everyone can see
Liar, liar, it's all you'll ever be
Liar, liar, liar, it's what you mean to me
Liar, liar, lies...

Start trouble, spread pain
Piss and venom in your veins
Talk nasty, breathe fire
Smell rotten, you're a liar
Sweat liquor, breathe snot
Eat garbage, spit blood
Diseased, health hazard
Scum bag, filthy bastard
Greasy face, teeth decay
Hair matted, drunk all day
Obsessed, sunken veins
Rot gut, scrambled brain
Steal money, crash cars
Rob jewelry, hock guitars
Rot in Hell, it's time you know
To your master, off you go

You're a liar, a fucking liar!
Filthy liar, liar!

(Music: Mustaine, Ellefson; lyrics: Mustaine)

A cockroach in the concrete,
Courthouse tan and beady eyes.
A slouch with fallen arches,
Purging truths into great lies.
A little man with a big eraser,
Changing history
Procedures that he's programmed to,
All he hears and sees.
Altering the facts and figures,
Events and every issue.
Make a person disappear
And no one will ever miss you.

Rewrites every story,
Every poem that ever was.
Eliminates incompetence
And those who break the laws.
Follow the instructions
From the New Way's Evil Book of Rules.
Replacing rights with wrongs,
The files and records in the schools.

You say you've got the answers,
Well, who asked you anyway?
Ever think maybe
It was meant to be this way?
Don't try to fool us,
We know the worst is yet to come.
I believe my kingdom will come.

F is for fighting, R is for red
Ancestors' blood in battles they've shed.
E, we elect them, E, we eject them,
In the land of the free and the home of the brave.
D for your dying, O, your overture,
M, is for money, you know what that cures
They will cover your grave with manure.
This spells out freedom, it means nothing to me,
As long as there's a PMRC.

Put your hand right up my shirt,
Pull the strings that me me work,
Jaws will part, words fall out,
Like a fish, with hook in my mouth.

Rewrites every story,
Every poem that ever was.
Eliminates incompetence
And those who break the laws.
Follow the instructions
From the New Way's Evil Book of Rules.
Replacing rights with wrongs,
The files and records in the schools.

I'm not a fish, I'm a man.
Hook in mouth!
