  • (Ladies and gentlemen of the underclass
    The President of the United States of America
    Is dead)

    I don't believe in the politics
    Of chosen fools and hypocrites
    Who walk a line that's stretched so fine
    Is death or glory had in mind?

    Here we go: a gas mask illusion
    No one knows who'll lead this revolution
    Extension grows the way to a conclusion

    It's too late, there's no time
    It's too late, there's no time
    All for none, never one, two, three, four

    March of the dogs to a beat of disillusion
    Sworn under God, breeding panic and confusion
    The white flag is down; send in the clowns
    The carnival of sins is now going to begin

    It may be I'm a pessimist
    But I say we need an exorcist
    The root of all evil's standing tall
    Under God and above us all

    Here we go: beginner desperation
    All we know is confusion and frustration
    Un-stitch your clothes
    No vision of salvation

    It's too late, there's no time
    It's too late, there's no time
    All for none, never one, two, three, four

    March of the dogs to a beat of disillusion
    Sworn under God, breeding panic and confusion
    The white flag is down; send in the clowns
    The carnival of sins is now going to begin

    Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
    A-one, two, three, four

    Another president's dead
    Because they blew off his head
    No more necks to be red
    Yes, to Heaven he fled
    Was it something he said
    Because of who's in his bed?
    By who will we be led?
    From whose hand will we be fed?
    All the lies by the lying liars who said
    We'll be fine, it's okay
    Hey, look, mom, no head

    It's okay, it's all right Writer/s: DERYCK JASON WHIBLEY, DERYCK WHIBLEY
