Candidate lyrics

As I walk along this road paved with human kindness

I can never forget the price you've paid

I'm an actor on a role, an artificial virus

I'm your daddy, I'm your disgrace

I say, "Kid, just move along, we don't want it - don't need it

Your politics just breed despair

I salute an empty flag of ancient tribalism

And trust me, nobody cares"

For I am your candidate

I am bloody lips and makeup

I'm your caliphate, opioids and mutilation

A celebrity, and my name is competition

I've come to bear your pain, and I can make it go away

I'll make it go away, I'll make it go away

Believers, dupes and clowns

I want you to all gather 'round

To glorify ignorance and fear

I dispense misinformation to a post-truth generation

My darlings, don't shed a tear

For I am your candidate

I am bloody lips and makeup

I'm your caliphate, opioids and revelation

An hermaphrodite in restrooms and service stations

I truly feel your pain, and I can make it go away

I'll make it go away, I'll make it go away
