Presidental Sacrifice - Taking Executive Priviledge lyrics

When the kids were small

They were taught to be proud

That their country was great

Their president as well

Even children abroad desired

To be great men and women

Dreaming someday to be

In a great land of democracy

But none now want its position

When they grow up to learn

And find the truth to be misery

The cost to sanity is too great

Who then has done this so

The moguls of media dictate

Their minions eager to please

The desires of their masters

No man walks the earth easy

And must leave tracks behind

The faults of being mortal bound

Are the highlights they employ

Do we all forget what it is

To be in charge, to stub a toe

Reminders of our familiar follies

That teach us empathy too

So why do we so eagerly absorb

Lies and convolutions conveyed

And leave reason behind easily

Believing its demagogues

None now wish the office

In a world full of great things

Save the demented or unwary

Sacrifices, socialistic design

None can be great if not allowed

That their ambitions watched

Criticisized and betrayed by rogues

That know no integrity beyond

What country can be great

That allows its leaders to be

None but puppets of the media

Its whims, its quips, and quirks

All citizens become a mediocrity

A nation losing itself in distrust

And democracy fails its foundation

More cracks form in Liberty's Bell
