Megadeth Holy Wars... The Punishment Due Lyrics

Brother Will Kill Brother
Spilling Blood
Across The Land
Killing For Religion
Something I Don't
Understand

Fools Like Me
Who Cross The Sea
And Come To
Foreign Lands

Ask The Sheep
For Their Beliefs
Do You Kill On
God's Command?

A Country That's Divided
Surely Will Not Stand
My Past Erased
No More Disgrace
No Foolish Naive Stand

The End Is Near
It's Crystal Clear
Part Of The Master Plan
Don't Look Now To Israel
It Might Be Your Homelands
Holy Wars

Up On My Podium
As The Know
It All Scholar
Down In My Seat
Of Judgement
Gavel's Bang
Uphold The Law
Up On My Soapbox
A Leader

Out To Change The World
Down In My Pulpit
As The Holier Than Thou
Could Be Messenger Of God

Wage The War
On Organized Crime
Sneak Attacks Rappel
Down The Rocks
Behind The Lines

Some People Risk
To Employ Me
Some People Live
To Destroy Me
Either Way They Die
They Die

[[[Solo 1]]]

They Killed My Wife
And My Baby
With Hopes To Enslave Me
First Mistake
Last Mistake

Paid By The Alliance
To Slay All The Giants
Next Mistake
No More Mistakes

[[[Solo 2]]]

Fill The Cracks In
With Judicial Granite
Because I Don't Say It
Don't Mean I Ain't Thinking It
Next Thing You Know
They'll Take My Thoughts Away

I Know What I Said
Now I Must Scream
Of The Overdose
And The Lack Of Mercy Killings

Mercy Killings
Mercy Killings
Killings, Killings, Killings
Next Thing You Know
They'll Take My Thoughts Away.
