lyrics

The candy goodness melts in your mouth
A fairy princess on a unicorn of sorts
But real Americans love this shit
Maybe it’s me and I’m a bitter, angry shell

Doesn’t it set off some emotion that you can’t control
Bonafide Americans calling you home

Let’s thank the sellouts to the ends and means
The ones beholden to the twenty-six percent
It’s entertainment now, it’s entertainment now
Dear Leader’s faculties are here and then they’re not

We’re fatigued and that’s how they wanted it
We’re fatigued but we’ve got to fight
Whoever said “that joke’s not funny anymore” was right 

Let’s raise a glass and toast the end of days
And hold our loved ones tight before they slip away
Try to remember how we used to feel
Try not to think ‘bout where it’s going to go from here
