Megadeth Tribute EP V

Enter The Arena/Crush 'Em

Here we go crush, crush, crush them.

Enter the arena and hit the lights step up now you're in for a ride
This is war, ain't no fun and games we get it up, you go down in flames
Party time, going down you better not mess us around
The stakes are rich, take a hit or stay the price is high, someone's gonna pay
Heads I win, tails you lose out of my way I'm coming through
Roll the dice don't think twice and we crush, crush 'em

Looking for trouble, now you've found it you're a drum and we're gonna pound it
Last one standing wins the fight hear us scream and shout all night
Down on the floor and eat the grit this is gonna hurt a little bit
Heads I win, tails you lose out of my way I'm coming through
Roll the dice don't think twice and we crush, crush 'em
Now we lay you down to rest you'll never be more than second best
Step inside you're in for a ride and we crush, crush 'em

Don't need reason, don't want names just a John Doe to put to shame
Step aside let me explain the name of the game is pain
Now we've found you we're gonna pound you we're gonna beat you gonna defeat you
We're gonna bust you we're gonna crush you we're gonna crush 'em
Heads I win, tails you lose out of my way I'm coming through
Roll the dice don't think twice and we crush, crush 'em
Now we lay you down to rest you'll never be more than second best
Step inside you're in for a ride and we crush, crush 'em

Something That I'm Not

Your mind tells you that you've lost your confidence you're drifting and ya don't believe in anyone
To lose what little you have left to be proud of afraid you can't do this again
You said that nothing can come in-between us the way of getting things we wanted done
Then enissophobia held you under its influence until you compromised your style
Everything about you has been one big charade
What will you do now the wells run dry cry?
To sell out all your friends and stab them in the back
It's something that you are; something that I'm not

When you forced me into doing what you love mark my words no one loves you very much mark them
And when you tried to change me and tried to replace me I couldn't help but end just hating you
Being a fraud can only last so long, you should know
Till what ya sensed as a child returns, you little baby
To choke out the voice that told ya money and fame
Would fill the crater that you dug for yourself
Unlike you I'm no vision to myself, lest you forget
You didn't ever make metal, buddy; metal made you
To crush and run over everyone along the way
It's something that you are; it's something that I'm not
A stranger to yourself ya pissed me off again
I won't be driven by your needs anymore
What you'd become to do or be is clear to see for me
It's something that you are; it's something that I'm not

It makes me sick to hear you say you love me
I know you only love what I can do for you
If you were the one that was leading the charge
Would you notice if I missed a day or two but that's impossible!
We all laughed at the parodies that you'd become
Now your pain slowly paid back has begun
So, accept my resignation, or in your words betrayal
Before it gets much worse, end this self-sabotage
Something I'm not, something that you are, something that I'm not
Something I'm not, something that you are, something that I'm not
Something that you are, something that I'm not, yet

I Know Jack/Back In The Day

I served with Jack Kennedy I knew Jack Kennedy
Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine Senator you're no Jack Kennedy

Where were you when it happened where could you be found?
Were you at the front of the stage or in the underground?
From SF out to Old Bridge New York back to LA
The world of metal changed forever back in the day
Well that was back in the day and if you weren't there
It doesn't matter anyway because you wouldn't understand

Live to die and die to play every day and place
Leave a path of metal across the world from stage to stage
Well that was back in the day and if you weren't there
It doesn't matter anyway because you wouldn't understand
In denim and leather we were all part of one force
Knocked rock and roll on its ass and put metal on the course higher
Back in the day you weren't there
It doesn't matter because you wouldn't understand

This is our way of life a life that was born free
To follow orders how to live was never meant to be
Peals of thunder, sheets of lightning the power hits the stage
The music was exciting the mania raged
We all had the fever our ears started to ring
Feeding this wildfire consuming everything
Metals king back then and still to this day
Others imitate or challenge but it never goes away

Built For War

Built for war, what do you think your fists are for? Built for war!
Listen, I didn't start this believe me, I will finish it...
You called down the thunder too late now there's no way out...
Nothing is gonna stop me - until then better watch your back...
Built for war, what do you think your fists are for? Built for war!
There is no retreating - I will cut you down to size...
You will beg for mercy - a bad seed, you're as good as dead...
Yield to new dimension - Hell's coming, better say your prayers...

Built for war, what do you think your fists are for? Built for war!
Built for war, are you looking at me, you want some more what do you think your fists are for?
One day you will face me - and see the terror trapped inside...
Final retribution - torture and pure punishment...
Vengeance running so deep - a dungeon of agony awaits...
Fear not as death surrounds you bitch all you want, but here it comes...
Built for war, what do you think your fists are for? Built for war!
Built for war, are you looking at me, you want some more what do you think your fists are for?

Célebutante

You say you're a model, it's evident you've never met
A mirror you didn't love "Ooh-La-La!"
You say you're an angel with your halo, and your crown
As you fly up to the sun, and melt your wings
It's not a want, it's an obsession you wanna hear the people screaming out your name
Whispers at night in your midnight confessions
You'll do anything for fame Célebutante Célebutante

You say you're an actor, well, then come set-up the stage
Put the cast right where you want; show us what you got!
You say you're in movies, always dropping names of
So-called-semi-almost-famous friends; it never ends
It's not a want, it's an obsession you wanna hear the people screaming out your name
Whispers at night in your midnight confessions
You'll do anything for fame Célebutante

Fame, to teach the unteachable fame, to reach the unreachable
Fame, to beat the unbeatable fame, to keep the unkeepable
Fame, the tighter you hold on to fame, the more everything slips away!
All the right hungers, all the right thirsts all the right aches, the pains, and the hurts
All the right gossip, all the right trends all the right knives in the backs of your friends

Killing Is My Business And Business Is Good

I am a sniper always hit the mark paid assassin working after dark
Looking through the night using infrared target's 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
Killing is my business and business is good you'd better believe it
