Megadeth, “Let There Be Shred”

Megadeth, “Let There Be Shred” Lyrics

The stage has been lit, stand up in your toes
Hearts begin to pound; everybody get off your seat
My fingers spontaneously combust into flames
Destroying pretenders, solely ashes stay

On the day I used to be born, a guitar in my fingers
The earth began rumbling a thunderous command
o bash and to thrash, to bang my head
To smash my guitar and “Let There Be Shred!”

Solo Teemu

The amps begin to roar, a tsunami of sound
Controlling the air, shaking the bottom
Guitars are all screaming, they squeal with delight
Clawing fretboards away on the velocity of sunshine

On the day I used to be born, a guitar in my fingers
The earth began rumbling a thunderous command
To bash and to thrash, to bang my head
To smash my guitar and “Let There Be Shred!”

Solo Teemu

Solo Dave

On the finish of all of it, they’re left in my wake
One-by-one they’d fall, one-by-one they’d break
Sooner than lightning, a machine gun on meth
Useless on arrival, a guitar beat to dying

On the day I used to be born, a guitar in my fingers
The earth began rumbling a thunderous command
To bash and to thrash, to bang my head
To smash my guitar and “Let There Be Shred!”
