Power crazy
Power mad
Power is your god …
Power worship
Power scam
You wanna rule us all

• Don’t tell me what to do
• I can see through you
• And you know it’s true
  First you use the left
  Then you use the right
  Fast asleep by day
  Then you feast at night
  That marxist dialectic
  shows itself in everything you do
  IT’S A RICH MAN’S WAR
  BUT A POOR MAN’S FIGHT
  That’s how we know that it’s you!

Power junkie
Power whore
There’s nothing you won’t do
Power monger
Power troll
You are no longer you

• Don’t tell me what I think
• That I need a drink
• That we’re on the brink
  First you lost your head
  Then you sold your soul
  And your pride was next
  Then your heart went cold
  You’re so far gone that you don’t
  even know you’re turning inside out
  HOGGING UP THAT WEALTH
  FORE YOU GET TOO OLD
  Beyond a shadow of doubt

Power floozie
Power lush
That Kool-Aid has its price
Power magnet
Power crutch
Can’t take it when you die

Can’t take it when you die

---

Is it true when you die
You eternally cry?
As you’re screaming out why!
You remember your lies

All the people you screwed
As you sat there and drooled
Will it come back on you
At the moment of truth?
