Five Magics

Five Magics
The speaker in the song lives under an evil, oppressive ruler and wants to overthrow him and become king. To do this, he masters five magics but in doing so, he becomes power-hungry and evil, just like the Abyss Lord that he opposes. Furthermore, the Abyss Lord already knows the five magics so he has the advantage and wins the fight. This is the only Megadeth song that's real fantasy-adventure oriented.The song is written about "Goreblade:Warrior King Of The Universe"

Lyrics
Bestow upon me Knowledge

Wizard, all knowing, all wise

I want to rule this kingdom

Make sweet the breeze now defiled

Dethrone the evil prince's iron fists

In velvet gloves of sin

Parade the grey robed monks

The vestal virgins, wheel the wyvern's in

Let the ceremony consecrate marriage

Let me be the protege of Five Magics

Give me alchemy, give me wizardry,

Give me sorcery, thermatology

Electricity, Magic if you please,

Master all of these, Bring him to his knee

I master five magics, I master five magics

I master five magics, I master five magics

Possessed with hellish torment (Possessed with hellish torment)

I master magics five(I master magics five)

Hunting the abyss lord (Hunting the abyss lord)

Only one will stay alive (Only one will stay alive)

He who lives by the sword (He who lives by the sword)

Will surely also die (Will surely also die)

He who lives in sin (He who lives in sin)

Will surely live the lie
