lyrics
You’re so high that you don’t have to confess
to all of the things
that you’ve done
When your term is over, don’t bother with goodbyes,
we’ll say them for you
when you’re gone
And everyone will wait for your time
while you’re searching for something
that’s not even there
Nothing you do can cover your lies,
the things that a high criminal
can decriminalize
Like the elders of Rome, like Nero in Robes,
wearing the clothes that you wear
You’ll need more than that to see you through
more than St. Peter, or Gabriel,
more than the pope could ever do,
while you're searching for something
that's not even there
You’ll serve no sentence for all of your crimes,
you won’t take the blame for
anything
Are you happy, yes are you glad
now that you’re finally king?
And this whole country
will turn to a mess
while you're searching for something
that's not even there
The president laughs,
the senators cry,
the senators retort,
the president laughs
The president has the floor,
the president starts the war
Where have you been?
are you hiding like him?
are you having a drink to yourself?
Do you have a better story to tell
with all the books that you've lined on your shelves?
