1. Last Rites
[D. Mustaine]
2. Loved To Death
[D. Mustaine]
[solo: Mustaine]
[D. Mustaine]
I am a snyper (?)
Always hit the mark
Paid assassin
Working after dark
Looking through the night
Using infra-red
My target on you
Aimed at your head
$10.000 up front
$10.000 when I'm through
And I know just what to do
And ya know I'll do it too
Then I'm coming back for you
Back for you!
I do the "getting rid of"
Don't tell me why
Don't need to hear the truth
Don't need the lies
Now pay me quickly
And now we're through
It brings me great pleasure
To say my next job is you
Don't you know that
Killing is my business
And business is good [repeat]
You'd better believe it

6. Rattle Head
[D. Mustaine]
Here I come
Stand up and plant your feet
Listen I'm letting off steam
Now throw your hands in the air
Let it loose I don't fucking care
[solo: Poland]
Rattle head
A dose of metal you need
To bang your head til you bleed
It's time for snapping some neck
Slashing, thrashing to megadeth
[solo: Poland]
Rattle head
You, your head is pounding with pain
Winning, sinning, beginning
Feeding, the needing for bleeding
Bashing, smashing, crashing
Frying, annihilating you!
[solo: Poland]
[solo: Mustaine]
7. Chosen Ones
[D. Mustaine]
[solo: Mustaine]

Now this land is mine to pillage
Rape, and steal, and take at will

But, it better work this time.

[Chorus (repeat):]
Devils Island, (here I stay) Devils Island.
[Chorus (repeat):]
Devils Island, Devils Island.
(Devils Island, Devils Island.)
Here I am.
Good Mourning.
6. Bad Omen
Down fell the stars, as they
Splashed into the sea.
"Mi nomine Baphomet",
Come dance with me.
Sacrifice the virgins,
Spiritual rites.
Their master's time has come,
The moon is full tonight.
Drinking, dancing,
They worship, and toast
The devil, who's watching,
With demon's remote.
Fire, rising,
Racing in your blood.
Possessed, naive,
His service is done.
Bloody blasphemy.
7. I Ain't Superstitious
I ain't superstitious,
When a black cat crosses my path.
And, I ain't superstitious,
As I break the looking glass.
Ain't afraid of no demons,
Don't make me laugh!
I ain't superstitious,
Under the ladder I go.
I ain't superstitious,
It's all bulls**t, don't you know!
Ain't afraid of the shadows,
I like the dark anyway, and that's a fact!
Superstitious [x 2]
I ain't superstitious,
No such thing as bad luck.
I ain't superstitious,
I couldn't really give a f**k.
Take your stupid superstitions,
And find some other paranoidal,
Chickens**t, sissy, worm, and, tell it to him.
Superstitious [x 2]
8. My Last Words
My life's on time,
But again my sense is late.
Feel a might unsteady,
But still I have to play.
Six to one's the odds,
And, we have the highest stakes.
And, once again I gamble with my very life today.
[Music by D.Mustaine]

Ever think may be 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
[CHORUS:]
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, will cover your grave with manure
This spells out FREEDOM, it means nothing to me
As long as there's P.M.R.C

5. Sweating Bullets
[Mustaine]
Feeling paranoid
True enemy or false friend?
Anxiety's attacking me, and
My air is getting thin
I'm in trouble for the things
I haven't got to yet
I'm chomping at the bit and my
Palms are getting wet, sweating bullets
Feeling claustrophobic
Like the walls are closing in
Blood stains on my hands and
I don't know where I've been
I'm in trouble for the things
I haven't got to yet
I'm sharpening the axe, and my
Palms are getting wet, sweating bullets
[Solo : Dave]
Feeling paranoid
True enemy or false friend?
Anxiety's attacking me, and
And my air is getting thin
Feeling claustrophobic
Like the walls are closing in
Blood stains on my hands and
I don't know where I've been
Once you committed me
Now you've acquitted me
Claiming validity
For your stupidity
I'm chomping at the bit
I'm sharpening the axe
Here I come again, whoa!
Sweating bullets

Blue sky, black death
I'm off to meet my maker

Assassin in stealth
Assailant from Hell
Impervious to damage
Computer on-board
Engaged in a war
Non-stop combatant
Maybe not a mutant, maybe a man
Part bionic
And organic
Not a cyborg
Call him Psychotron
Burning inside
Godspeed in glide
Battle plan running
A killing machine
Just downright mean
And forever cunning
Maybe not a mutant, maybe a man
[Chorus]
Target to destroy
Arms in employ
Full assault fire threat
Sensors indicate
You will terminate
Life systems disconnect

I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle use the man
I've seen them crawl from the cradle to the gutter on their hands
They fight a war but it's fatal, it's so hard to understand
I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle use the man
I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle use the man
I've seen them crawl from the cradle to the gutter on their hands
They fight a war but it's fatal, it's so hard to understand
I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle use the man
Cryptic writing on the wall, the beginning of the end
I've seen myself use the needle, seen the needle in my hand

8. A Secret Place
10. She-Wolf
Internal combustion
Multiple personalities
Terror inside of me
A mask of silent agony
As medieval as Merlin
A pact for power was made
Lucifer in transition
It's time the price was paid
A telestic message
Written in torment
Howl our dirges
Like the horns of Jericho
Distorted faces
Writhing in rage
Walls of purgatory
Tumble down
Endless death
The jewels of a crown
12. F.F.F
Pounding in my teeth
Hydraulics on the move
Kicking in my face
Savage bucking mule
Pummeling my soul
100 tons of lead
Trampled under foot
Steamrollers on my head
Crushing down, caving in my will to live
I'd rather be dead, scream insane
To have the bullprick split their guts
Make them pay make them bleed
On your backs, in your face
Down your throats, up your ass
Bullprick!
Pulverizing flesh, broken bones the aftermath
Can't escape the war, the war machine path
All become one, flattening the streets
Cry for absolution, splitting at the seams
Crushing down, caving in my will to live
I'd rather be dead, scream insane
To have the bullprick split their guts
Make them pay make them bleed
On your backs, in your face
Down your throats, up your ass
Bullprick!
On your backs, in your face
Down your throats, up your ass
Bullprick!

Forgot who he is
Forgot who he was
Used to call the shots
Now he can't connect the dots
I'll be there for you, when you walk through the fire
I'll be there for you, when the flames get higher
When nothing fits and nothing seems right
Till the very last breath of my life, I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you, when you walk through the fire
I'll be there for you, when the flames get higher
When nothing fits and nothing seems right
Till the very last breath of my life, I'll be there for you
I'll be there
In my hour of need
You were there always
Now it's time for me to be there for you too
Always

I see Chronos
His eyes are on fire
He holds my life
And I see my time expire
[Dave Mustaine]
Kill the King, The King is dead, Long live the King
I reveal a deceiver
In the highest seat in the land
His idle hands the Devil's workshop
Generate more smoke than heat
Kill the King, The King is dead, Long live the King
[Dave Mustaine]
What 's yours is mine and what 's mine is mine too
If you shake my hand better count your fingers
3. Crush 'Em
I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle
use the man
I've seen them crawl from the cradle to the gutter
on their hands
The fight a war but it's fatal, it's so hard to
understand
I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle
use the man
I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle
use that man
I've seen them crawl from the cradle to the coffin
on their hands
They fight a war but it's fatal, it's so hard to
understand
I've seen the man use the needle, seen the needle
in his hand
Cryptic writing on the wall, the beginning of the
end
I've seen myself use the needle, seen the needle in
my hand

I thought at this hour, any pleasure, could never really be a sin in vain
One hundred and one shots of opportunity, I'd gladly take them all again and
again, and again
My angel's left me, sorrows are my own
Now I'm here, with the Devil on my own
Just like a churchyard shadow, creeping after me
It's only there to terrify my mind, a black swan keeps haunting me

Why does trust equal suffering'
