Backpfeifengesicht
Couldn’t we have guessed it would end this way
history is always writ by the rich
and acolytes court the apocalypse
Jefferson to Marx, turning in their graves
pro wrestling, realpolitik
narcissist, you paint the world with your shit
Alpha male primate dominance display
dog-whistles and the art of the dis

Crisis is the price to play the game
Beholden to a god without a name
Ideology? Brand identity!
feel the feels, get revenge in your dreams
the best words trickle down in a stream
There is only me, sea to shining sea
it’s all “truthful hyperbole”
what the fuck’s “truthful hyperbole?”
Crisis is the price to play the game
Beholden to a god without a name
All eyes, all eyes on me
So my success succeeds
Divide, deride, be free
All lies, no why, believe
That life is only wins and losses
Apprentices and bastard bosses
You see the grift, but you can’t see the mark

Airstrip One
Let’s talk about the good old days
Not the future we’re afraid to face
Because the past is such a peaceful place
Remember when you ruled the waves
Who were the masters, who were the slaves
Who was holding all the gold in that golden age
Calling Airstrip One
Hey! Hey! Citizen!
Do you know what you’ve done
Hey! Hey! What’s done is done
The finest hour for no one
It’s such a simple choice, stay or go
true identity, common enemy
Where’s the power who’s in control
slogans on the side, how we simplify
Nameless anger never changed the way the wind blows
Who told you you could take yourself away
see the swarm, the tide, how they jeopardize
The power players with their nameless game
in a little time, could be you
You only get the choice they let you make
Calling Airstrip One
Hey! Hey! Citizen!
Do you know what you’ve done
Hey! Hey! What’s done is done
The finest hour for no one
Were you fighting for the right side
Did you throw away your lifeline
Did you wake up on the wrong side of a burning bed
Were you fighting for the right side
Did you throw away your lifeline
Fuck the future for the right lie
Calling Airstrip One
Hey! Hey! Citizen!
Do you know what you’ve done
Hey! Hey! What’s done is done
The finest hour for no one
Were you fighting for the right side
Did you throw away your lifeline
Did you wake up on the wrong side of a burning bed
Were you fighting for the right side
Did you throw away your lifeline
Fuck the future for the right lie
