This song obviously describes some kind of ritual, probably inspired by Dave’s involvement with witchcraft at this stage in his career. The last several verses are from the point of view of Satan claiming the soul of someone who has made a deal with the devil. (Music, lyrics: Mustaine) Welcome to our sanguinary sect or worship Feel at home in our black conventicle As we anathmastise All those who oppose us. Don’t summon the devil, Don’t call the priests If you need the strength, The conjuring, obey! Behold! the flames rise From the compass’ cardinal points Burn the sacred oil, And with the ashes you’ll annoint Arrange the symbols Of the wizard and magician. Light the candles, Place the parchment paper in position Between its leaves place The lash from a black cat’s eye, A straw of a broom, Fold, burn and centralize. Don’t summon the devil, Don’t call the priests If you need the strength, The conjuring. I am the devil’s advocate A salesman, if you will. You know my name. I met your father years ago Gave him what he’d please. He called my name, you’ll do the same. I’m claiming what is mine by right It’s time to close the deal. You’re bought and sold, bought and sold. Come join me in my infernal depths, Mephisto’s Hall of Fame I’ve got your soul, I’ve got your soul. The conjuring. Obey!

@pipopower12 A Conjuring is basically a summoning of something, most commonly referred to summoning demons and all that good stuff.
man I’m portuguese so can someone explain me what “a conjuring” is?
lyrics i am the devil you know my fuckin name
(How can you beat those lyrics,and that swingin’ beat?)
Arrange the symbols,
Of the wizard, and, magician.
Light the candles,
Place the parchment paper in position.
Between its leaves place
The lash from a black cat’s eye,
A straw of a broom,
Fold, and, burn, and, centralize.
@DannySmith1990 Yeah, I feel the same way, I hate when people say I’m atheist- it’s like- “Ok, I have hard time believing in a god but I don’t need a name for it”. However I don’t agree with thegreatbungholio707, religion doesn’t start wars or destroy worlds, people do (minus destroying world, that’s just childish).
yeah, i agree with you, that’s one of best and heaviest riffs ever!
dave’s friend was a satanist he inspired dave to write this cool song thought
I love Megadeth, I for one am an Atheist but i do find the subject of the Occult a very fascinating subject which I have studied intensely, one reason to love this song heh heh! However i hope you know that Dave Mustaine is a Born Again Christian so I’m not sure of him returning to his past life but you never know…..
He’ll be back, The occult needs him
Marty, it’s Dave and Marty for the best guitar duo
3:00 – 3:35 One of the best riffs in metal history !
Respect!
dave used his solo from 1:10 in this song on the song ‘return to hanger’ at 3:35 secs, check it out.
Dave Musaine & Whoever = BEST GUITAR DUO EVER!!!!
made a ringtone for my Gravity from 0:04-0:35 of this video on tube 2tone{.}com
That’s retarded.
Dave Mustaine & Chris Poland = BEST GUITAR DUO EVER!!!
OBEY!!!!!!!!
DannySmith1990: I just thought that you should know, that “Satanic” AND “Satanist” are both -real- titles, but for different things. Your response seems to suggest that you have never heard of the word “Satanist” before. By the true definition, a “Satanist” is someone who lives life however they choose as long as they don’t deliberately “wrong” another individual. As far as Mustaine goes, he’s no longer an asshole, and that is a good thing.
Yeah, I Agree, It starts wars and quite frankly destroys worlds. Peace Out.

Dude look… I’m not mad or anything but, I don’t have ANY religious label, okay? I’m not Satanic, Atheist, Christian, Jewish, Shinto, Buddist, Taoist, Hindu or Muslim. I choose not to have ANY label what so ever because labels just divide people and ruin life in general. Also- I really have no clue what you want to upload or what it is but, you can do what you want since it is your life/channel/video/choice. Since your one of my friends, even if I don’t like it I’ll quietly just turn it off.
]V[EGADET]-[ Kicks Ass!
yeah, but i don’t know wether i should put them up, thats y i wanted ur opinion, r u like an athiest???
1. Do what you like since it is your video. Just go with your feelings.
2. Not to sound snotty or anything but, it’s actually NOT called being a Satanist. The correct term is Satanic Worshiper but, NO. I don’t worship anything or anyone for any reason. The only reason I choose to be evil is because of the strength I have since I don’t hold back. In turn, embracing the natural impulse to commit acts that are deemed ” EVIL ” keeps most weaklings away. I accept myself and I have NO FEAR of hell.
Thanks Man, Just A Question, Should I Put up the 3 Randy Burns Mix on the 04 remix???? P.S. Are you like a satanist or something????
@JkAllDayHills i have actually experemented with Dmt i found that the trip was injoyable but nothing like this
@suttonkid1 DMT-Dimethyltryptamine a chemical found in the human brain used to dream, can be extracted from any living orgasm. but very illegal and hard to come by, good luck!
what drug would i take to replicate these effects?
very cool man
Cool!
to the one who posted this, you were meant to show this. thank you and props on the video.
Chilling…….that’s all just CHILLING!!
@lysergicaddict – what does the 7th generation represent?
its so pure…
I’m with you on that one.
I’ll take some peyote as well!!
@Lisajo009 * raises hand*
I like to play along on my Didgeridoo when I hear this song.
Nice Art….
I have the strangest craving for some peyote. Anyone else???
your trippn me out here dude…..0_0
Did Indians decide to be called Indians then because i always thought that Indian was offensive since you would practically be saying there like the tan skinned people of India and because it sounded similar to injin.
actually guys the better term is first nations people or aboriginal. and good video too… tool. >:)
its really not too hard of a concept dude. indians are people from india and native americans are people who are native to america. calling native americans indians can be confusing to what they actually are.
i never knew tool did a song like this. thanks for the video.
@ ADEALWITH THE DEVIL: Native American or Indian doesn’t bother me either. But Native American should discontinued.
Cool rendintion for “Lipan Conjuring”. Why do people use the politically correct term Native American? There’s nothing wrong with “Indian”. I’ve known Indians that have no problem being called Indians. Native American is an elitist, white term and should be discontinued.
this could be how the material world disintegrates
it’s like time and space folds in on itself
wtf
wow nice video, tool is absolutely amazing
