I saw his face, on every channel |
|
His slogans in all the papers |
|
I heard people, repeat his words |
|
I saw them shouting, his flag in their hands |
|
I saw him making promises |
|
I heard him talk about life |
|
Coroner |
|
But I saw his fingers too |
|
They were crossed behind his back |
|
Darling...of the TV screen |
|
Manipulator...of the purse strings |
|
Master...of the spoken words |
|
Jackal...with connections |
|
Worshipped...by the masses |
|
Leader...with ulterior motives |
|
[Is neither a good offense or defense] |
|
[Get with it boys and girls] |
|
[Your house needs to be put in order too] |
|
His slate, clean as snow |
|
Covers over his dark past |
|
To be in league with workers |
|
Pictures he loved to see |
|
But I read in his eyes |
|
Promotion...reality |
|
He played his part to the end |
|
Shot...leaving a shambles |
