Happy Nice People - Yellow King Lyrics

Orange King King! Yellow King King! Gold King King King!
Orange King King! Yellow King King! Gold King King King!
Orange King King! Yellow King King! Gold King King King!
"Make my subjects fear others then they'll obey
We'll get our way; they'll do what we say
We'll use alternative facts to drive our foes hence
Break all their nerves, fritter all their sense
A truth denounced daily becomes a lie
A lie pronounced daily becomes a truth
Let my subjects' anger create an uproar
We'll use the media to get our encore
Everyone chant our derisive refrain
'Let division reign! Let division reign'!
Go dearest children of my care
To practice avarice beyond repair
Guard my prerogative, assert my throne
This nod confirms each privilege we own
The laws won't stop us though some may look askance
We'll make governors fiddle, make senators dance!
Remember politicians are abject things
Born to do our bidding, as slaves for kings
I, the tyrant supreme! shall three states command!
And make one mighty DUNCIAD of the land"!
Fame's trumpet blows
All the media summoned to his throne
All those who feel fame's inward sway
One instinct seizes and transports away
None need a guide by sure attraction led
And by Algorithms their desire fed
The stupefied masses applauded the rich
As they steered the economy into a ditch
As they fed themselves favors from taxpayers' gold
Lobbying for their interests as the economy implodes
From behind golden gates they watched the country burn
Calculating how much of a profit they'd earn
Wars and viruses spread all across the realm
While the President doddered at the helm
Tactical responses in each office slept
His indifference over each committee crept
Lackeys followed orders, scientists were disdained
Deny all and lie became the name of the game
He sang to distract the nation with his "build a wall" song
Gone was a sense of shame and of right and wrong.
"What you do to the least" becomes a lie
Those words of Christ are betrayed and die
