King of Delusion

King of Delusion

Well, the king of delusion
sits high on his throne
can’t see nothin’
that he doesn’t own

Has the power
to help the world
but he buys a TV
and a couple of girls

Oh, when you gonna see what’s already there?
When you gonna find a minute to spare?
When you gonna learn what it takes to care?
When you gonna come down?

And who am I
to say a word?
Who am I to say a word?

Well, nobody knows
the trouble he’s seen
and no one respects
the American Dream

They did it to him
so he does it to you
There’s no escapin’
when you don’t have a clue

Oh, when you gonna see what’s already there?
When you gonna find a minute to spare?
When you gonna learn what it takes to care?
When you gonna come down?

And Christmas morning
there’s magic in the air
The door is locked behind you
and God is there

Well, the bills are paid
the investments too
And Uncle Sam
everyone but you

Watch your step
You know how it goes
When you’re near a volcano,
expect it to blow

Oh, when you gonna see what’s already there?
When you gonna find a minute to spare?
When you gonna learn what it takes to care?
When you gonna come down?
When you gonna come down?
When you gonna come down?
