Blackmail the Universe

Blackmail The Universe - Megadeth (大屠殺)

Written by：Dave Mustaine

This is breaking news

It appears that air force One was shot down

Somewhere over the middle East this morning

By a sleeper cell of rogue terrorists

Firing a Stinger Missile

The Pilot and all passengers are unaccounted for

The President's whereabouts are presently unknown

And he is presumed missing

The Vice President secretary of state

And principals of the military are assembling

Our nation stands at DEFCON 3

The greatest crisis will someone come for me

I red white and blew it

Unleashed revenge my body is detained

How could anybody do this

Betrayal I peel away the days

Medals are useless Uncle Sam's forgotten me

I'm not important no one will ever come

I'll never be found

God get me out of this hell

Nuclear battlefields energized

Cold wars are heating up again

The tensions mounting

People lift up your fists in revenge

The stage is set

Who will be the first to blink

We can't go to war

Remember that Vietnam thing

Peace at any price

With a gun to your head bang bang

Weakness runs in your family

What runs in mine is death

This is your 5 minute warning

Burn all of your classified documents

And if cooler heads don't prevail

First strike from a political dead man

Appeasement only makes the aggressor more aggressive

He understands only one language action

And he respects only one word force

No sign of them stopping

No time for back channel communiques

We need all the help we can get

Air strikes and invasions retaliate I say

The will of good men

Can not counter the terrible strain of war

Blackmail the universe with the greatest of calamities

Awaken those sleeping giants in the dust of the ground

With their skin destroyed unjust to innocence

Lawful possessor of the world's last 24 hours

Terror and ugliness reveal what death really means

And in hatred you see men as they really are

If chosen over heaven Earth will have been for them

All along only another region of hell
