"I just want to set the world afire" 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 ass goodbye, the end has just begun Distorted figures walk the street, it's 1999 Weeds once underneath the feet have grown to 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 arsenal of Megadeth can't be rid of 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 Its treaties soon will cease No one will be left to prove that humans existed Maybe soon the children will be born open fisted We all live on one planet and 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 ruin Towering overhead both far and wide There's unknown tools for World War III Einstein said, 'We'll use rocks on the other side' No survivors, set the world afire!
