Dictator Dance Punk-Cut

[Instrumental Break] [Verse 1] Strong man posture, weak man's mind Praising tyrants all the time Handshakes firm but spine so frail Truth’s the threat, that'll put you in jail [Pre-Chorus] Look at you bow! Look at you scrape! Democracy dies while you're on the take! [Chorus] Dictator dance, dictator dance! Kissing the rings of men with blood on their hands Dictator dance, dictator dance! Talking tough at home but abroad you stand. — As their biggest fan! [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Letters of love to dear Kim Jong Praising Putin all day long "They're so tough, they're so strong!" While our rights get sold as your grift goes on [Pre-Chorus] Look at you kneel! Look at you betray! Liberty's corpse --- just part of the play! [Chorus] Dictator dance, dictator dance! Kissing the rings of men with blood on their hands Dictator dance, dictator dance! Talking tough at home but abroad you stand, — As their biggest fan! [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] [Sudden slowdown, bass-heavy] Liberty's corpse draped in your flag of convenience While despots applaud your theatrical obedience A puppet, a fraud, a sycophant’s shell— Singing their anthem while freedom rebels! [Verse 3] Chest puffed up for the TV screen Behind closed doors, you lick their boots clean Groveling to tyrannical regimes While selling out the American dream [Pre-Chorus] Look at you grovel! Look at you quit! Your legacy's built on deception and grift! [Chorus] Dictator dance, dictator dance! Kissing the rings of men with blood on their hands Dictator dance, dictator dance! Talking tough at home but abroad you stand — As their biggest fan! [Fast pounding drums] The dictator dance continues on While your mask slips further gone And we see you for what you really are— NOT A Patriot! NOT A Savior! JUST ANOTHER Power-Hungry Fraud! — Democracy cries While you DANCE! (like a fool) While you BOW! (like a tool) As you SELL US OUT! — And Freedom Burns! ... While You Dance Along! [Finish] [SPOKEN (funny, happy voice)] "And Bing Bang Bong!" [Giggling] "Oops! Your rights are all gone." [Giggling] [Giggle] "That's the dictator dance!" [End]
