new in all the best words under
the sun blazing down like
the wrath of that golden calf
you pray to shimmering
around your head
the wrath of that golden calf
you pray to shimmering
around your head
a corona of mistruths disinformation
fake news words we seem
to have made up especially
for you are a fox in the henhouse
which explains why
feathers are finally flying
away far away as fast as you can
run away from home to some exotic
land where a lovely girl will bury
your head in the sand
they'll hide you and never let
us find
you go
home
and someday when you
are dead and gone south
people will sing songs
about you and your gang
like that one about DB Cooper
who hijacked and jumped out
of a plane only we all thought
that story was really pretty cool
he became a folk hero
of a plane only we all thought
that story was really pretty cool
he became a folk hero
but no one is rooting for you
