The Threat Is Real Songtext
von Megadeth

Justified obliteration
No one cares anymore
The Messiah or mass murderer
No controlling who comes through the door

A culture made of cover-ups
Will leprosy touch their flesh?
For backroom meetings and rendezvous
The vultures have come home to nest

The clock runs out
The weakest link
A deadly strike
The threat is real!

See the burnished images
Of a crest fallen agency
Violent conditioning
Caused the nature of the enemy


Your terminal lack of vision
Blinded eyes see no lights
A chronic lack of perspective
Their cancer now eats us alive

A fatal shot
A lust for blood
The final act
The threat is real!

Justified obliteration
No one cares anymore
The Messiah or mass murderer
No controlling who comes through the door

A culture made of cover-ups
Will leprosy touch their flesh?
For backroom meetings and rendezvous
The vultures have come home to nest

The clock runs out
The weakest link
A deadly strike
The threat is real!


A fatal shot
A lust for blood
The final act
The threat is real!
