"Symphony of Destruction" is a song by heavy metal band Megadeth, released as a single from their 1992 album, "Countdown to Extinction". The lyrics explore the hypothetical situation where an average citizen is placed in a position where he runs the country while the public is led by a phantom government. Penned by vocalist and frontman Dave Mustaine, the song received significant radio play and charted in various territories, making it one of Megadeth's best known songs.

The song was generally well received by critics, and its accompanying music video by Wayne Isham initially received heavy rotation on MTV, but eventually became controversial and was censored because of an assassination scene that MTV felt was "too harsh". The video features each band member individually playing, with a mostly black-and-white nonlinear narrative revolving around a political candidate who is assassinated, and the massive amount of anarchy and riots caused by the event. The song has been featured in several sources of media, and has been covered by several bands.

Lyrics:

You take a mortal man,

And put him in control

Watch him become a god,

Watch peoples heads a'roll

A'roll...

Just like the Pied Piper

Led rats through the streets

We dance like marionettes,

Swaying to the Symphony...

Of Destruction

Acting like a robot,

It's metal brain corrodes.

You try to take it's pulse,

Before the head explodes.

Explodes...

Just like the Pied Piper

Led rats through the streets

We dance like marionettes,

Swaying to the Symphony...

Of Destruction

The earth starts to rumble

World powers fall

A'warring for the heavens,

A peaceful man stands tall

Tall...

Just like the Pied Piper

Led rats through the streets

We dance like marionettes,

Swaying to the Symphony...

Just like the Pied Piper

Led rats through the streets

We dance like marionettes,

Swaying to the Symphony...

Swaying to the Symphony...

Of Destruction
