about

Old fashioned protest song

lyrics

You can read about people in history books
Stories of liars, fascists and crooks.
The answers are there if you know where to look
We've seen someone like you before....

Delusional tirades and paranoid fears
You hear applause but it's actually jeers
And you dance to a tune that only plays in your ears
All signs that we can't ignore...

You built your empire on the backs of the poor
Your big golden penthouse has blood on the door
Rotten and frightened right down to your core
But soon it will all slip away....
Tryants like you are only king..for a day

Oh gather ye round all you fascists and fools
The emperors clothes are all missing their jewels
And the choice that you've offered is nothing to choose
We've seen people like you before...

With your armbands and slogans and boots on the ground
The din of your lies makes a terrible sound
The weight is on you when it all crashes down..
We've stopped people like you before...

Maybe you should read a few of those books
That line all the walls in your house made of crooks
The outcome for you is as bad as it looks
History knows what to do...
What to do with people like you...

King for a day
King for a day
King for a day
