Leviathan [MUSIC VERSION] | Write Out Loud

The music version of a poem I posted a few months back – part of the BARD COMPANY album ’21st Century Bullshit Detector’ (see link at foot of post if you would like to hear more

Leviathan

The senile wolf is at the door

Spewing racist chaos hate

Howling at perceived injustice

A permanent and hostile state

See the war pigs gathering round

His rancid and disgusting trough

This is where the demons shelter

Raise their fascist flags aloft

This is now the new world order

See the storm clouds ‘cross the skies

Where the warlords and the tyrants

Slip their masks and fake disguise

A covenant of evil men

Who twist their words and hide their lies

Sheep are voting for their butchers

Democracy lays down and dies

A tweet from bruised and bloated fingers

Comments spill from an addled mind

A currency of twisted thinking

Paid to the febrile and unkind

A dictator, an autocrat

Supported by a fawning court

Where loyalty is blind and deaf

And votes can be stolen or bought

CHORUS

BREAK

A bully with a failing grip

Sends bully boys to enforce law

The private army of the damned

ICE cold killers on the thaw

Around the world friends and neighbours

Close the windows, lock the door

To something crawling from the swamp

That’s evil to its very core

CHORUS

The history books remain ignored

Of violent men in violent ways

It really couldn’t happen here

The fawning right wing prophet says

An atheist untouched by god

Kneels down and in the chaos prays

That peace will come and hate will die

Mankind will cheat the end of days

This is now the new world order

See the storm clouds ‘cross the skies

Where the warlords and the tyrants

Slip their masks and fake disguise

A covenant of evil men

Who twist their words and hide their lies

Sheep are voting for their butchers

Democracy lays down and dies

Democracy lays down and dies

Democracy lays down and dies
