Hail, Captain!
A leader comes out of the blue
Of the ruins of the coup d'etat
An underdog of fascist fame
An autocrat with heart cold as ice
The military and agribusiness
Allegedly stand by his side
As acts of bigotry and denialism
Return to the front pages of news everywhere
Tell me why
Try
To hide
Behind a thin veil of
Lies
And
More lies
They call him
Captain
Hail, Captain
Stop!
Why the hype?
Why the noise?
There was hope for better days ahead us
Still we're haunted by the same old ghosts
"If you ever pay attention to the bigger picture
You'll see that the writing's on the wall
As the wall collapses, again I ask you this"
Why
Try
To hide
Behind a thin veil of
Lies
And more lies
I hope you consider this
While
There's still time
To leave everything behind
Change your mind
Somebody hear me screaming
So lost, it feels I'm drowning
Somebody hear me falling
While we sink under the so-called captain's orders
Somebody hear me screaming
So lost, it feels I'm drowning
Somebody hear me falling down
Of the ruins of the coup d'etat
An underdog of fascist fame
An autocrat with heart cold as ice
The military and agribusiness
Allegedly stand by his side
As acts of bigotry and denialism
Return to the front pages of news everywhere
Tell me why
Try
To hide
Behind a thin veil of
Lies
And
More lies
They call him
Captain
Hail, Captain
Stop!
Why the hype?
Why the noise?
There was hope for better days ahead us
Still we're haunted by the same old ghosts
"If you ever pay attention to the bigger picture
You'll see that the writing's on the wall
As the wall collapses, again I ask you this"
Why
Try
To hide
Behind a thin veil of
Lies
And more lies
I hope you consider this
While
There's still time
To leave everything behind
Change your mind
Somebody hear me screaming
So lost, it feels I'm drowning
Somebody hear me falling
While we sink under the so-called captain's orders
Somebody hear me screaming
So lost, it feels I'm drowning
Somebody hear me falling down
