07 Terms and Conditions of a Crown | HAYDAR 313

[Cold Open - amused spoken voice] Before you wear that crown, Have you read the small print? [Chorus] Terms and conditions of a crown: You lift the people, not push them down. A shining hat won't fix this town, Read the terms before you wear that crown. Haydar three one three, Turn the promise where we all can see. [Verse 1] Clause one says the roof is leaking, Clause two says the bus is late. Clause three says the folks you're speaking for Shouldn't have to wait outside the gate. Your portrait got a bigger frame, The school got half a chair. That's a very expensive hairstyle For a job that means to care. [Pre-Chorus] Three blank checks? No, one clear page. Three straight answers from the stage. If you want the microphone, Tell us what you actually own. [Chorus] Terms and conditions of a crown: You lift the people, not push them down. A shining hat won't fix this town, Read the terms before you wear that crown. Haydar three one three, Turn the promise where we all can see. [Verse 2] The cleaner knows the marble hallway, The driver knows the broken street. The nurse has got a longer speech Than the ribbon-cutting meet. We can disagree at dinner, We can argue what is fair. But a title isn't service Till there's something useful there. [Bridge - stripped and calm] No hero in the fine print. No throne above a question. Just a temporary office, And a permanent obligation. [Final Chorus] Terms and conditions of a crown: You lift the people, not push them down. The job is bigger than the gown, Read the terms before you wear that crown. Haydar three one three, Make the work as clear as the ceremony. [Spoken Outro] Haydar three one three dot com.
