There is a man
With a look in his eye
It is a hollow look
The look of an empty soul
There is a man
And he don’t care about nothing
He just wants what he wants
And what he wants is control
He won’t be happy
Till he gets it
But it’s in the getting it
That he goes in a black hole
What depths can you go down
Till you hit the bottom
Till you reach the end of the ends
You come up too sudden
Your lungs might explode
And you get the bends
There is a man
With a blankness in his stare
And he is nodding yes
Or maybe he is just weirdly unwell
Hard to say
One way or the other
He is skilled at the show and never tell
He’ll do his schtick
And he’ll mug for the cameras
And he’ll tell us all
To go to straight to fucking hell
Don’t show remorse
Don’t show defeat
Raise up your fists
And be proud to be a cheat
There is a man
With twist in his smile
He may be smug
But he is also all-knowing
If you listen to him
Your dreams will come true
No really, honest
He’s not just buffaloing
Just don’t look too close
Or you may just see
His bald spot showing
