Megadeth
Peace Sells
What do you mean
I don't believe in God?
I talk to him every day
What do you mean
I don't support your system?
I go to court when I have to

What do you mean
I can't get to work on time?
I got nothing better to do
And what do you mean
I don't pay my bills?
Why do you think I'm broke? Huh?

If there's a new way
I'll be the first in line
But it better work this time

What do you mean
I hurt your feelings?
I didn't know you had any feelings
What do you mean
I ain't kind?
I'm just not your kind

What do you mean
I couldn't be president
Of the United States of America?
Tell me something
It's still "We the people…" right?

Can you put a price on peace?
Peace sells but who's buying?
No, peace sells

Hangar 18
Welcome to our fortress tall
Take some time to show you around
Impossible to break these walls
For you see the steel is much too strong
Computer banks to rule the world
Instruments to sight the stars

Possibly I've seen too much
Hangar 18 I know too much

Foreign life forms inventory
Suspended state of cryogenics
Selective amnesia's the story
Believed foretold but who'd suspect
The military intelligence?
Two words combined that can't make sense

In My Darkest Hour
In my hour of need
You're not there
And though I reached 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 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 these years I thought I was wrong
Now I know it was you
Raise you head, raise your face, your eyes
Tell me who you think you are, who?

I walk alone
Into the promised land
There's a better place for me
But it's 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
Loneliness is not only felt be fools
Alone I call to ease the pain
Yearning to be held by you
Alone - so alone, I'm lost
Consumed by the pain

Won't you hold me again
You just laughed - ha, bitch

My whole life is work built on the past
But the time has come
When all things shall pass
This good thing passed away
In my darkest hour

Holy Wars... The Punishment Due
Brother will kill brother
Spilling blood across the land
Killing for religion
Something I don't understand

Fools like me who cross the sea
And come to foreign lands
Ask the sheep for their beliefs
Do you kill on God's command?

A country that's divided
Surely will not stand
My past erased, no more disgrace
No foolish naive stand

The end is near it's crystal clear
Part of the master plan
Don't look now to Israel
It might be your homelands

Holy wars

Upon my podium
As the know it all scholar
Down in my seat of Judgment
Gavel's bang uphold the law

Up on my soapbox a leader
Out to change the world
Down in my pulpit as the holier
Than thou could be messenger of God

Wage the war on organized crime
Sneak attacks repel down the rocks
Behind the lines
Some people risk to employ me
Some people live to destroy me
Either way they die

They killed my wife and my baby
With hopes to enslave me
First mistake... last mistake!
Paid by the alliance to slay all the giants
Next mistake... no more mistakes!

Fill the cracks in with judicial granite
Because I don't say it
Don't mean I ain't thinking it
Next thing you know
They'll take my thoughts away
I know what I said
Now I must scream of the overdose
And the lack of mercy killings

Anarchy In The U.K.
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 U.K.
It's coming sometime it maybe
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 M.P.L.A.?
Is this the U.D.A.?
Is this the I.R.A.?
I thought it was the U.K.
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
Again I'm pissed, destroy!

Wake Up Dead
I sneak in my own house
It's four in the morning
I had too much to drink
Said I was out with the boys

I creep in my bedroom
I slip into bed
I know if I wake her
I'll wake up dead

I wonder will she find out
About the other lover Diana

Wake up dead, you die
Wake up dead and buried
Wake up dead, you die
Wake up dead

Hook In Mouth
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
Of the New Ways' 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 - they will cover
Your grave with manure

This spells out FREEDOM!!!
It means nothing to me
As long as there's a P.M.R.C.

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

I'm not a fish
I'm a man
Hook in mouth

Lucretia
Sitting up late at night
I tiptoe through the darkness
Cold as hell black as spades
Aware of my immediate surrounding

In my place I escape
Up into my hideout
Hiding from everyone
My friends all say
Dave you're mental any way, hey!

Drift into a deeper state
I stalk the cobwebbed stairways
Dirt grits beneath my feet
The stair creaks I precariously sneak

Hypnosis guides my hand
I slip slide through the walkways
Sit in granny's rocking chair
Memories are whirling by yeah!

Reminisce in the attic
Lucretia waits impatiently
Cobwebs make me squint
The cobra so eloquently glints

Moonbeams surge through the sky
The crystal ball's energized
Surely that like the cat waiting
Lucretia rocks away
