Tremble you weaklings, cower in fear I am your ruler; land, sea and air
Immense in my girth, erect I stand tall I'm a nuclear murderer, I am Polaris
Ready to pounce at the touch of a button My systems locked in to military gluttons
I rule on land, air and sea I pass judgment on humanity
Winds blow from the bowels of hell Will we give warning? only time will tell
Satan rears his ugly head, to spit into the wind
I spread disease like a dog Discharge my payload
a mile high rotten egg air of death wrestles your nostrils
Launch the Polaris the end doesn't scare us
When will this cease The warheads will all rust in peace!
Bomb shelters filled to the brim Self survival such a silly whim
World leaders sell missiles cheap Your stomach turns, your flesh creeps
I rule on land, air and sea Pass judgment on humanity
Winds blow from the bowels of hell Will we give warning? only time will tell
High priest of holocaust, fire from the sea Nuclear winter spreading disease
The day of final conflict All pay the price The third world war
Rapes peace, takes life Back to the start, die in the pyre
With the earth as cold as ice Total dismay as the sun passed away
And the days were black as night
Eradication of Earth's population loves Polaris (x4)
This song is written from the perspective of a nuclear weapon. Polaris was a nuclear missile in the United States' arsenal. Dave Mustaine of Megadeth got the idea for the song after he went skydiving, and on the way home noticed a bumper sticker reading "May all of your warheads rust in peace." According to Mustaine, the dialog in the song is the missile speaking, saying things like "Tremble you weaklings, cower in fear." Said Mustaine: "As soon as the f--king thing detonates, it discharges nuclear fallout. People think they can go underground and get away from it, but what happens when you come up. It's still there. There is no safety." (songfacts)
A nuclear weapon is an explosive device that derives its destructive force from nuclear reactions, either fission or a combination of fission and fusion. Both reactions release vast quantities of energy from relatively small amounts of matter. The first fission bomb test released the same amount of energy as approximately 20,000 tons of TNT. The first hydrogen bomb test released the same amount of energy as approximately 10,000,000 tons of TNT.
A modern thermonuclear weapon weighing little more than 2,400 pounds (1,100 kg) can produce an explosive force comparable to the detonation of more than 1.2 million tons (1.1 million tonnes) of TNT Thus, even a small nuclear device no larger than traditional bombs can devastate an entire city by blast, fire and radiation. Nuclear weapons are considered weapons of mass destruction, andtheir use and control have been a major focus of international relations policy since their debut. (wikipedia)
