Weaponize the News 03:56
lyrics
buy track
Yo Vlad, I got a plan Because my oil's tied up in your frozen northern land You'll get to keep Crimea And Don will take a fee And maybe we'll destabilize a democracy or three You see, these whack-ass sanctions and the price of oil just Got you economy falling like a Menshevik loyalist Wouldn't it be nicer if we turned that around? The international order, man, it's keepin' me down so let's Weaponize the news Make them question sanity Create a false reality Delegitimize the truth Fill their mind with doubts and lies To keep a nation paralyzed Weaponize the news And we can drive them all insane Drive them all insane Now with fifty paid writers and a thousand paid trolls And a few news outlets that we keep on the rolls We'll spam out so much content that they never know what's real But we'll create unconscious biases through first reaction feels Maybe we'll tip elections - that's a secondary goal We just destabilize the process and we watch the rest unfold If the world don't trust the government the order's gonna tank And we'll be watching, laughing all the way to the fucking bank If we weaponize the news Make them question sanity Create a false reality Delegitimize the truth Fill their mind with doubts and lies To keep a nation paralyzed Weaponize the news And we can drive them all insane Drive them all insane Weaponize the news Make them question sanity Create a false reality Delegitimize the truth Fill their mind with doubts and lies To keep a nation paralyzed Weaponize the news And we can drive them all insane Drive them all insane

Were you too cool for public school, Betsy Devos? Were you too cool for public school, Betsy Devos? Did you buy your way to government, Betsy Devos? Do you perch atop a pyramid, Betsy Devos? Are you a corporate lackey, Betsy Devos? Did your brother kill Iraqis, Betsy Devos? Will you advance God's Kingdom, Betsy Devos? Will you advance God's Kingdom, Betsy Devos? Will you advance God's Kingdom, Betsy Devos? Do you have a lot of money, Betsy Devos? I mean like a serious fuck ton of money, Betsy Devos? (billions and billions of dollars) Will your kids worry about money? Will your grandkids worry about money, Betsy Devos? Did your kids go to public school, Betsy Devos? Even I went to public school, Betsy Devos. Will your grandkids go to public school, Betsy Devos? Even I went to public school, Betsy Devos. Will you advance God's Kingdom, Betsy Devos? Will you advance God's Kingdom, Betsy Devos? Will you advance God's Kingdom, Betsy Devos?

Mar-a-Lago 02:41
lyrics

With one trip to Mar-a-Lago you could buy a million malaria nets That's a thousand kids who wouldn't have died of malaria And with one trip to Mar-a-Lago you could buy health care for eighty vets Because they can't afford injuries incurred Fighting another American war Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Make America Golf Again Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Make America Golf Again With one trip to Mar-a-Lago you could give a Head Start to two hundred kids Sure they're poor but they don't deserve the opportunity And with one trip to Mar-a-Lago you could give out seven hundred Pell Grants But fuck education for our underserved nation You'd rather take another fucking golfing vacation Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Make America Golf Again Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Mar-a-Lago Make America Golf Again

I thought it would be easier I thought it would be fine I thought it would be easier I thought I'd be alright I thought that I'd be popular I thought that I'd be king I thought it would be easier I thought it would be fine I thought it would be easier I thought I'd be alright Turns out I'm not cut out for this And people are pissed And boy do I miss my old digs Turns out I'm not cut out for this And people are pissed And boy do I miss my old gig Boy do I miss my old gig I thought it would be easier I thought it would be fine I thought it would be easier I thought I'd be alright I thought I'd be alright
