Megadeth - United Abominations lyrics

Within striking distance from Ground Zero
Sit's a smoldering international cauldron
The United Abominations as it were
Born to prevent wars
It froze in the face of disaster
And stood silent while terrorization took
Hostage of the world in a mire of hypocrisy
The UN ignores sex crimes by
It's own blue helmets and enables terrorism
So in the end it's failed
And the UN is where our so-called friends
Get to stab us in the back
And we pay 22% of their tab to
Host our enemies here at home
Ambassadors from countries
Otherwise known as a catastrophe
Enjoy diplomatic immunity living in Manhattan
While their children are
Turned into prostitutes
It's a complete and utter disgrace
A blot on the face of humanity
And they get away with it

Poverty in their kitchens
Held hostage by oil-for-food
Yet their own plates are full off
The fat of their lands
There's no blood on their hands
(right Kojo?)
They promised to tell the truth
Without leaving a fingerprint
They will lose the UN one way or another
The victim, I fear will be us
Sisters and brothers

The UN is right you can't be any more un
Than you are right now, the UN is undone
Another mushroom cloud, another smoking gun
The threat is real, the Locust King has come

Don't tell me the truth
I don't like what they've done
It's payback time at the United Abominations

A grave and gathering danger
The decision to attack based
On secret intelligence
It'll take years, I fear
To undo the failings in Iraq (Iran and Korea)
You may bury the bodies
But you can't bury the crimes
Only fools stand up and really
Lay down their arms
No, not me, not when death lasts forever

The UN is right you can't be any more un
Than you are right now, the UN is undone
Another mushroom cloud, another smoking gun
The threat is real, the Locust King has come

Don't tell me the truth
I don't like what they've done
It's payback time

"The UN writes resolution after
Resolution and has
Become irrelevant through inaction
And totalitarian paralysis"
"Order, Order!"
"Ha! There is no such thing as order"
"Larry, it's true
Reports confirm today that the United Nations
Has officially closed it's doors forever"
"Well, I just don't see what all the fuss
Is, because they don't do anything anyway
Do they?"

The UN is right you can't be any more un
Than you are right now, the UN is undone
Another mushroom cloud, another smoking gun
The threat is real, the Locust King has come

Don't tell me the truth
I don't like what they've done
It's payback time at the United Abominations

NATO invaded Yugoslavia to
End ethnic cleansing there was no UN‌‍
The US invaded Afghanistan after 9 11
There was no UN‌‍
Saddam Hussein violated 17 UN resolutions
The UN was asked to join the
War in Iraq the US invaded there was no UN‌‍
Libya bombed a discotheque in
Berlin killing Americans there was no UN‌‍
Iran funds Hamas and attacked the

There was no stinking UN‌‍
Facing War without end
Looking into the future
There was no more uN‌
