Lyrics

We need a leader, not an egotist
Not some thin-skinned hate evangelist
Read Leviathan, grow obsessed with it
A lifeline that kills those who cling to it

What makes you think he won't put you against the wall?
Do you think you're too special to take the fall?

He's benevolent? Pull the other one
Prepare yourself for pandemonium
Cast your doubt aside, cheer the wealth divide
Doomed through good intent then let it all collide

What makes you think he won't put you against the wall?
Do you think you're too special to take the fall?

Now my misery is complete
Now my misery is complete
And I'm never going to find a lifeline to get out of this one

We need a leader, not an egotist
Not some hysteric evangelist
Bang the protest drum, call your critics blind
When it all goes wrong, call your failures mine

What makes you think he won't put you against the wall?
Do you think you're too special to take the fall?
