lyrics

washes his hands of the whole affair
as he wishes his mistress an evening
he steps out to the platform to address the masses
who ask many questions but forget when time elapses
he says "worry not" but fails to explain why
but failure only happens by accident
and when his jet hits land, he faces the crowd
gives them one look of confidence, then enters the loud flying machine of destruction

for this land to function
we must rid ourselves of bugs like him
who cares what's illegal when people are regal?
and circumstances grow so grim
please turn your books to the blankest of pages
that hold closer futures of civilian rages
the ink will be red dripping from certain heads
once on billboards and magazines, this time they'll really be there

upside down

who's held responsible when minds that hold power
use all that they can to destroy
they don't have to hide when they're so celebrated
for all that see world as a toy
