lyrics
I stand before you here today
on a pedestal of your own making
You worked so hard and were ignored
Now your voices will be heard
But first – everybody listen, all eyes on me
let me tell you what I see
A proud people, a great nation
one that will last a thousand years
Stop that, roll back, turn it down,
poison dripping from your mouth,
nothing learnt in a century,
your bullshit is not welcome here
You chauvinistic, homophobic, racist, sexist, spineless prick
You talk of crime waves, lying news, you are the biggest fraud there is
Look upon my creation
a goddamned empire ready to fall
Look upon my creation
We will crumble within our walls
Applause for tyrants
yeah, it is always the same
dead dreams, empty promises
God bless and Amen
a modern false Prometheus
a torch to bring the light
a crimson banner set ablaze
a bonfire on thin ice
Raise a flag and then a wall
Lock yourself in to keep out all
Take a breath and say a prayer
for you're running out of air
Applause for tyrants
yeah, it is always the same
dead dreams, empty promises
God bless and Amen
Look upon my creation
a goddamned empire ready to fall
Look upon my creation
We will crumble within our walls
on a pedestal of your own making
You worked so hard and were ignored
Now your voices will be heard
But first – everybody listen, all eyes on me
let me tell you what I see
A proud people, a great nation
one that will last a thousand years
Stop that, roll back, turn it down,
poison dripping from your mouth,
nothing learnt in a century,
your bullshit is not welcome here
You chauvinistic, homophobic, racist, sexist, spineless prick
You talk of crime waves, lying news, you are the biggest fraud there is
Look upon my creation
a goddamned empire ready to fall
Look upon my creation
We will crumble within our walls
Applause for tyrants
yeah, it is always the same
dead dreams, empty promises
God bless and Amen
a modern false Prometheus
a torch to bring the light
a crimson banner set ablaze
a bonfire on thin ice
Raise a flag and then a wall
Lock yourself in to keep out all
Take a breath and say a prayer
for you're running out of air
Applause for tyrants
yeah, it is always the same
dead dreams, empty promises
God bless and Amen
Look upon my creation
a goddamned empire ready to fall
Look upon my creation
We will crumble within our walls
