Name: Mad King
Duration: P00H05M39S
Description: In today’s democracy we have methods to remove an unfit leader. We have impeachment, and the 25th amendment. We also have a 4 year election cycle, or worse case an 8 year forced retirement. In the past, leaders were chosen for life, and the only way to remove them from office was for them to die! Let us use our more modern means to remove our own Mad King

lyrics

Saw the chaos coming
Question was, how bad
Polarizing everyone
We knew it would be sad
Incompetence there to see
Failure was in hand

danger ahead
warnings clear to see
how can this be
mad king was chosen to lead

Preaching to divide
Preaching hate the other side
Killing those who stand
For unity that’s right
Himself his only care
No regard for what is right

danger in sight
war and fright
he must be stopped
country will be in flames

Allies are in fear
Enemies are closing near
His head in the sand
Ignores please for sanity
Lashes out at all
Who work to fix our coming woes

We live in fright
Of what he’ll do next night
There’s no predicting him
Everyone should fear

———
danger is here
Predictions all ignored
how can this be
mad king was chosen to lead

common sense ignored
heads no sane advise
seems he wants to die
and bring us by his side
no way he is right
mad king must die tonight

country is in ruins
brought by his lies
How can we fight
And leave some hope behind

His death the only path
Mad king must die at last
no friends to protect
loyalty gone at last
thrown room bloody mess
theres hope for all at last
