Megadeth Lyrics for Song: Blackmail The Universe
 Lyrics for Album: That One Night: Live In Buenos Aires [2007]
 
 
 
 25932>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 principles 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
 
 Well, what runs in mine is death
 
 Solo- Poland
 
 
 
 This is your 5 minute warning
 
 Burn all 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 communiqués
 
 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- Poland
 
 Solo- Mustaine
 
 
 
 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- Mustaine
 
 
 
 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
