We’ve seen this movie
Played out before
And there’s certain parts of it
We shouldn’t ignore
Like where it morphs
Into Nineteen eighty-four
Or how the strong leader
Talks us into war

By now we should all
Be familiar with the script
Ain’t it clear to you
That he’s on an ego trip
We shouldn’t even have to
Replay the clip
To arrive at the part
That made the ratings slip

This movie already had
A general release
Now it’s in reruns
Only in the Middle East
The people are demanding
That the madness cease
So we can catch our breath
Or try to at least

We’ve seen this movie
Played out before
Where the Storm Troopers
Suddenly kick in the door
Then round up the people
As they cry and implore
And ask the strong leader
Why’d he do it for?
