Amerikhastan

[Verse 1]

Recruiting the ill-fated for "The War"

A legion of uneducated, bankrupt souls

With a lust for revenge, answering the call

From New Yorqatar to Califarabia

Desperation provides fertile ground for religious extremism

This glorious brainwashing

Where prejudice lies like a crouching tiger

Tormenting peasants till they erect an army

Under everyone's nose

In the end, propaganda destroys their DNA

God help them

[Guitar Solo: Glen Drover]

[Guitar Solo: Dave Mustaine]

[Chorus]

All that they envisioned of what things would come to be

Turned into a pink mist when they blew to smithereens

We are just a war away from Amerikhastan

When God versus God, the undoing of man

[Post-Chorus]

Promising a vapor

In the end they become one

[Verse 2]

No rules of engagement

This enemy hides amongst women and children

And to beat violence, you must ignore the focus groups

You must send in the Mossad

Turn off the BBC, CNN and don't look back

Rest assured there'll be no more Middle Eastern crisis

Hell, there'll be no more Middle East

These are your people, Lady Liberty

Pull up your dress today

And tattooed is "property of the USA

A subsidiary of Halliburton"

Surprise?

But a roaring lion is about to be unleashed on earth

Hey, Jihad Joe! Guess what?

We're coming to get you!

[Guitar Solo: Glen Drover]

[Guitar Solo: Dave Mustaine]

[Chorus]

All that you envisioned of what things will come to be

Turns into a death knell when you look behind the scenes

We are just a war away from Amerikhastan

When God versus God, the undoing of man

[Guitar Solo: Glen Drover]

[Guitar Solo: Dave Mustaine]
