Megadeth Blackmail The Universe Lyrics

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 a__embling 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

[Solo 1]

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

[Solo 2]

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

[Solo 3]

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.
