Artist/Band: Megadeth
Lyrics for Song: The Scorpion
Lyrics for Album: The System Has Failed [2004]



My life is everything

That feeds my thirst that causes sin

My wants are all i care

No shame or guilt, there's nothing there

Look deep into my face

I sell deceit without a trace

Fear not what i can doUnless you want it done to you

oh ohhhh!



As I climb onto your back, I will promise not to sting

I will tell you what you want to hear, and not mean anything

Then I treat you like a dog as I shoot my venom in

You pretend you didn't know that I am a scorpion, Oh



My self I'm centered in

There's nothing else, there's never been

And I dream, to be left alone

With the sadness, the madness of my own

Look deep into my soul

It's black as coal like a bullethole

Fear not, get off your knees

There's no defense, you'll do what i please

oh ohh!



As I climb onto your back, I will promise not to sting

I will tell you what you want to hear, and not mean anything

Then I treat you like a dog as I shoot my venom in

You pretend you didn't know that I am a scorpion, Oh



As I climb onto your back, I will promise not to sting

I will tell you what you want to hear, and not mean anything

I will treat you like a dog as I shoot my venom in

'Cause you knew all along that I am a scorpion, ya!



My lies, to reach the shore

I aggrandize and nothing more

My hopes, to steal away

All you love, I'll soon betray

Look deep into my past

The pain I deal is unsurpassed

I'm not a lowly scorpion

I'm so much worse; I'm the fall of man



reporter speaking:

Fighting broke out overnight between rival factions along the

Israeli/Syrian border. Initial reports say Israeli jet fighters

bombed the guerrilla base killing at least 49 soldiers and 13 civilians



A 49 year old unidentified man went beserk last night

opening fire with a 12 gauge shotgun in a crowded downtown

restaurant 14 people are dead including 3 children



A crackdown on labratory experients on animals is expected

to become law today. Animal rights activists have been

pushing for the bill for 9 years and have taken part in mass demonstrations



Police have smashed a multi million dollar drug smuggling

ring. 22 punds of heroin was seized along with a small

amount of cocaine, marijuana, and hashish. 25 people have

been arrested and face charges ranging from smuggling to

possession for the purpose of traficking
