Captive Honour tiene para mí los primeros 60 segundos más hermosos en toda la discografía de Megadeth. Un comienzo con guitarras cristalinas y un Dave Mustaine dispuesto a darnos la mejor de la baladas del metal es la apreciación a la primera escucha.
Sin embargo, todo se diluye al aparecer las potentes guitarras que nos indican que este tema no es una balada sino que un enérgico track que nuevamente explota los duelos entre Mustaine y Friedman para gusto del consumidor.
Captive Honour Apareció en Countdown To Extinction y todavía me imagino el video de la banda tocando en la prisión de Alcatraz y terminando de un puro portazo con candado incluído. Y acerca del tema: Este habla de la maldad del hombre y del sueño (casi imposible) del ciudadano común y decente de querer ver entre rejas y humillado al poderoso corrupto y al inimputable delincuente.
Letras / Lyrics
Madness comes, and madness goes
An insane place, with insane moves
Battles without, for battles within
Where evil lives and evil rules
Breaking them up, just breaking them in
Quickest way out, quickest relief wins
Never disclose, never betray
Cease to speak or cease to breathe
And when you kill a man, you're a murderer
Kill many, and you're a conqueror
Kill them all ... Ooh ... Oh you're a God!
Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury
Have you reached a verdict?
Yes, we have Your Honour, we find the defendant Guilty!
On all counts for crimes against all humanity
By virtue of the jury's decision and the power
Vested in me by the state I hereby sentence you to be
Incarcerated with no possibility of parole for life
Life? ... What do ya mean life? ... I ain't got a life
Boy! ... Your soul better belong to Jesus! ...
Hmmm-mmm cause your ass belongs to me!
Captive honour, ain't no honour
No time for questions
No time for the games
Start kicking ass
And taking down the names
A long shit list
A shorter fuse
He is untouchable
And guarantees you'll lose
Captive honour, ain't no honour
[Solo : Dave]
Inside the big house
His nightmare unfolds
Before he got there
His manpussy was sold
Black, blanket welcome
This taught guy's now a bitch
Praying for death
It can't be worse than this
Captive honour, ain't no honour
[Solo : Dave, Marty]
