| Megadeth – The World Needs A Hero Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
i'ts saying that the people in the US are't free. that the US is controlled by people behind the scenes, by a class of parasites (On puppet strings, a nation swings undermined by "moles"). this relation of parasitism is emphasized by the use of "moles". behind the colorful scene of dysfunctional democracy (quietly sits inside the Velvet Glove) is an "Iron fist" that does what it pleases. "Phantom rule, the hidden jewel who's really in control?" more evidence that this song is protesting the illusion of freedom. the speaker here (Dave, that is) is conscious about this fact. the says "tell them that i'm not free". i's an antithesis of the saying "land of the free". i'ts telling the NATO, the UN, and the white house, that he is aware, and that he refuses to be bought. "the white house is calling". he refuses to take part in the huge play, and he sides with his principles. in the end, he favors the truth. that's my interpretation. it would also explain why megadeath is way too underrated. they never give into pressure fro either the mainstream or the government. always with a great deal of artistic and intellectual commitment |

"sad statue of liberty" he says i think that's a clear indication of america's part in all of this... and of the ethical implications of all of it it's about american expansionism. i think it's a great song. |

this song tries to show a hidden unpleasant side of war to tell everyone that war isn't pretty and isn't as fun as you see in the movies. war is ugly. that's where Metallica tries to tell us |
