Symphony of Destruction Lyrics
And put him in control
Watch him become a god
Watch peoples heads a'roll
A'roll
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the symphony
Of destruction
Its metal brain corrodes
You try to take its pulse
Before the head explodes
Explodes
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the symphony
Of destruction
World powers fall
Warring for the heavens
A peaceful man stands tall
Tall
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the symphony
Of destruction
This is one of Megadeth famous songs with political meanings..it talks about how political leaders exploit the general people in their country and leads them to havoc and distruction for their own selfish purposes..which can be seen in the first 2 paras.. You take a mortal man, And put him in control Watch him become a god, Watch peoples heads a'roll A'roll... Just like the Pied Piper Led rats through the streets We dance like marionettes, Swaying to the Symphony... Of Destruction
In the second verse talks about what happens when the general people tries to protest against this so called leaders... Acting like a robot, Its metal brain corrodes.
they starts to act like emoitonless robots and take heartless measures to stop their protest/movement.. You try to take its pulse, Before the head explodes. Explodes...
they starts to put military laws and riot polices and tear gas and rubber bullets on those protesting people..
But in the last para megadesht seems to be optimistic by saying that those leaders dont last in the end..they fall..and they had to resign in the face of movement of the general people..
The earth starts to rumble World powers fall A'warring for the heavens, A peaceful man stands tall Tall...
really good man! i had that political idea in my head but... you took a deeper look into the lyrics

I'm no fan of megadeth but I luv this song, it's too true and wow...amazing.
i think its all about the world leader stuff for the first two verses and chorus but for the last verse i think its about ghandi because he made the powers crumble by being peaceful and at the end he stood tall
I love how political the lyrics are but whats makes this song for me is simply how aggressive the riff is. One of Megadeth's best songs
sallut deepmeaning,thanxo . Ur comments r nice.
guitar solo is amazing so fast so well placed and over so quickly amazing talent
Whatever the true meaning is, it's still a sweet fucking song!!!
I ocnsider this to be the best song that the band has every made

Kirk isn't that great trust me. Daver does the job of the whole Metallica band. He writes most of the songs' lyrics, guitar riffs and sometimes the solos too(Kirk only writes the solos, he sucks at rhythm). All Kirk does is play lead guitar while Dave sings and plays too.
