Less than five miles from Ground Zero sits a smoldering International cauldron, the United "Abominations" as it were. Forged to prevent wars it froze in the face of disaster, and stood silent while terrorization took hostage the world In a mire of hypocrisy it ignores sex crimes by it‘s goodwill man’s , 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. And their 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 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 at the United Abominations "The UN writes resolution after resolution……. " ( In French I believe) 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 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 And Iran funds Hamas , and attacked the US in the seventies, there was no UN Facing War without end, looking into the future, there was no more UN

To people saying the lyrics are wrong-- Some months before United Abominations was released, there was a contest on the Megadeth forums where you had to guess the song lyrics to the title track, given all the words in the song in alphabetical order. This song was submitted to SM.net after the contest, and was an early version of the song before it's actual release. In the time before it's release, the lyrics were changed (Most notably the last line in the chorus) and it hasn't been edited here, therefore, the lyrics are wrong.
