Blackmail The Universe - Megadeth

Blackmail The Universe

Megadeth


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 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
What runs in mine is death

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 communicates
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

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

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

Letra:
Interrumpimos su programación,
Parece que el avión presidencial ha sido derribado
en algún lugar de Medio Oriente esta mañana,
por una célula terrorista,  disparando un misil Stinger
El piloto y los pasajeros aún no han sido encontrados
El paradero del presidente es actualmente desconocido y presuntamente está perdido
El vicepresidente, Secretario de Estado, y principales militares están en asamblea nuestra nación está en nivel de defensa 3)

La crisis más grande, ¿vendrá alguien a por mí?
Yo "rojo, blanco y golpeado"(1)
Venganza desencadenada, mi cuerpo retenido
¿Cómo pudo alguien hacer esto?
Traición, desprendo los dias del calendario
Las medallas son inútiles,
el Tío Sam se olvidó de mí
No soy importante, nadie jamás vendrá
Nunca seré encontrado,
¡Dios, sácame de este infierno!

Campos de batalla nucleares energizados
Las guerras frias se estan calentando de nuevo
Las tensiones suben
Gente, levanten sus puños en venganza


El escenario está listo
¿Quién será el primero en pestañear?
No podemos ir a la guerra
Recuerden esa cosa Vietnam.
Paz a cualquier precio
Con una pistola en tu cabeza, ¡bang!,¡bang!
La debilidad corre en tu familia,
lo que corre en la mia es muerte.

Estos son tus 5 minutos de advertencia
Quema todos tus documentos clasificados
Y si las cabezas más frías no prevalecen
Primer golpe de un político muerto.


"El entreguismo sólo hace al agresor más agresivo
Él entiende sólo un lenguaje - ¡Acción!
y respeta sólo una palabra - ¡Fuerza!
No hay signos de que se detengan,
no hay tiempo para comunicados secretos
¡Necesitamos toda la ayuda que podamos recibir,
ataques aéreos e invasiones!
¡Represalias, digo yo!

La voluntad de los hombres buenos no puede resistir la terrible tensión de la guerra"


Chantaje al universo con la más grande de las calamidades
Despiertan esos gigantes dormidos en el polvo del suelo
Con su piel destruida, injusto para el inocente
Legalmente poseedor de las últimas 24 horas del mundo

El terror y el asco revelan lo que realmente significa la muerte
Y en el odio verás a los hombres como realmente son
Si eligieron arriba en el cielo, la tierra ya habrá sido para ellos
Desde el principio, sólo otra región del infierno


(1) Cuando dice "Rojo, blanco y golpeado", en inglés "red, white and blew", es un juego de palabras con los colores de la bandera americana "red, white and blue" (rojo, blanco y azul).

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship - Alestorm

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship Alestorm Lyrics: In the dead of night We hear the sound of thunder Undead fiends arise To terrorize and plunder Crawling through the sea A dendrophagic horde Our ship's no longer safe The zombies have just climbed aboard! Bloodlust in their eyes Our boat is their prize A feast for the dead Devouring the ship and inside of our heads Far across the sea Zombies wait for me Craving brains and treasure It's their destiny Til my dying day Hear these words I say Zombies ate my pirate ship I will make them pay Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (They are a bunch of undead pricks) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (I'll smash their face in with a brick) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Centuries ago The prophecy was written So the story goes The grimmest and the true frostbitten Druids made a pact That zombie ...

Portable Door - Deep Purple

 Portable Door Deep Purple Lyrics: When it came to me one day in Jerksville Man, I was right on the edge That jacket's too small for a man of your size And those socks are too big for your head   My eyes glaze at whatever you say But I'm listening, do tell me more It goes under the bridge, right over my head And out through my portable door   I was trapped in a dire situation Between reason and someone-in-law The winner takes all and runs off with the ball Nothing could pleasure me more   Times were, I'd have spoken my piece For a minute or two held the floor But I can't get a word in so here I am hurtling Right out through my portable door   The jabbering's hurting my brain cell so bad For once in my life I am bored The public house beckons, I follow the call And slip in through my portable door   The unlikely event came upon me I wasn't prepared for the shock Once round my neck and twice round ...

Lazy Sod - Deep Purple

 Lazy Sod Deep Purple Lyrics: The world’s on fire And I can’t get my arse out of bed The world is on fire There’s smoke all around my head   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night……   The oceans are rising And I can’t do a thing about that So it’s hardly surprising I built an ark for me and my sleek black cat   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   But that’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, you can like it or not I’m guessing not   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   That’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot, so hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, Whether you like it, like it or not And I’m guessing not Soooo what  ------------------------------------------...
