Set The World Afire [So Far, So Good... So What! 1988]

Red flash clouds choking out the morning sky
 They said it'd never come, we knew it was a lie
 All forms of life die now the humans all succumb
 Time to kiss your [bad word] goodbye the end has just begun 

 Distorted figures walk the street, it's 1989
 Weeds once underneath your feet have grown into vines
 Bodies melted like a candle, a land without a face
 No time to change your fate, no time left, it's too late 

 The [bad word] of Megadeth can't be rid they said
 And if it comes, the living will envy the dead
 Racing for power, and all come in last
 No winning first stone cast
 This falsehood worldly peace
 It's treaties will soon cease
 No one will be left to prove that numbers existed
 Maybe soon the children will be born open fisted
 We all live on one planet it will all go up in smoke 

 Too bad they couldn't see this lethal energy
 and now the final scene, a global darkening 

 Dig deep the piles of rubble and ruins
 Towering overhead both far and wide
 There's unknown tools of World War III
 Einstein said "We'll use rocks on the other side"
 No survivors set the world afire
