Lyrics:
Bestow upon me knowledge
Wizard - all knowing all wise
I want to rule my 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 the marriage
Let me be the protege
Of five magics
Give me alchemy
Wizardry
Sorcery
Thermatology
Electricity
Magic if you please
Master all of these
Bring him to his knees
I master five magics

Possessed with hellish torment
I master magics "5"
Hunting the abyss lord
Only one will stay alive
He who lives by the sword
Will surely also die
He who lives in sin
Will surely live the lie

Audio was ripped from the original CD release (Capitol Records - CDP 7 91935 2, USA, 1990) in lossless, WAV format (1411kbps). Lyrics (in the description) were copied from the booklet.

Why is YouTube only displaying the number of times I’ve viewed this video?

This a sit in the car till its done type of song

There's just something about Megadeth... the first time I heard Metallica, I was like "whoa". The first time I heard "Wake Up Dead", i was like "What on earth is coming out of of these speakers? Do my ears betray me?". That was back in 1986. Megadeth was louder, faster, more pissed off, lyrics were more clever and intellectual. I know Metallica has sold more albums. I like Metallica, but Megadeth for me, is on a whole different level. Thanks for the 1990 version. It's superior imo.

One of the worst sins of all time is pausing a Megadeth solo. Change my mind.

HUNTING THE ABYSS LORD on a daily basis since birth has been difficult.

[THINKINBOUTITX]

My brother rip introduced me to this album i introduced it to my son. I dont think it will ever end thats how good it is.

[JORUH]

I like it when some bands revisit segments of past songs. Devils Island (3:02) - Five Magics (4:56).

[TheCmmkj]

Out of the first 4 songs, by far the best song

[RandomDude]

I could listen to the bit 4:04-4:45 on loop all day.

[vicrattlehead]

My god I will never stop geeking about this song

[homerpez]

This mix was perfect exactly as it was. Why did Dave decide to ruin it with a "remix"?

No matter, I have the original... on vinyl.

[RandomDude]

Man the vocals on the remaster just don't compare to this, even in the unchanged vocals on other songs still don't sound as good as the og.

[RappinAcoustic]

Man what a fun and uncompromising song. I think people in a hundred years will look back and will still be in awe of this incarnation of Megadeth.

[trevorphillips]

I wish I could “love” this instead of just like it. Uploader is a legend.

[Grees]

Thanks ! I've always prefered the original, especially the vocal part of Take no prisoners, which is way more agressive.

[rsalek]

The remaster on Spotify is not good in my opinion. Vocals just too loud and it sounds weird. I am listening here instead!

[cedericocosantorini]

Why they switched the verses in the remastered ? "Give me sorcery" substituted for "Give me wizardry" ; and "Master all of these" for "Magic if you please" ? That - among other things - really annoys me when I accidentally land on a remastered version.

[pausolmora]

THANK YOU! I'm sick of remasters... :')

[Thedesertguy]

Ahh yes, the crowned jewel of IN PEACE...fawkin stands alone.
