[Verse 1] He walks the halls with a hat as a crown, Stripping the branches, tearing them down. Words like honey, but they taste like tar, Truth’s a whisper, and it won’t go far. [Prechorus] He said, "Trust me, I’ll make it great," But the gates closed, and it was too late. [Chorus] Now the red hat crown weighs heavy on us all, A throne of lies built high, waiting for the fall. He silences the voices, tairs the branches down, The land of the free wears a red hat crown. [Verse 2] He shook hands with men who ruled by fear, While old friends watched from the rearview mirror. Tariffs rose like walls of stone, Isolation built his throne. [Prechorus] Science turned to a carnival show, Snake oil cures for the seeds we sow. [Chorus] Now the red hat crown weighs heavy on us all, A throne of lies built high, waiting for the fall. He silences the voices, tairs the branches down, The land of the free wears a red hat crown. [Bridge] Allies turned strangers, their voices fade, Tariffs rising like a wall he made. Science traded for a traveling show, Snake oil flows where the rivers should grow.
