Turns out I never had a thought at all
I've been talking in my sleep, reciting teleprompted anthems - a marionette
Strung tight to the executives upstairs
I almost had myself convinced that I meant everything I said. What a shame
Oh captain, my captain, you've been drinking. What happened?
I've been slurring my cadences and blacking out when I stand
I know all about your son, who never did return from the war
But there was poison in that bottle, I tell you
I'm coming out with my hands in the air. This is not my voice. What you are
Hearing is not me
There's been a horrible mistake. I'm a proud God-fearing registered democrat
This is all the same elaborate scheme and it will be cleared up when the
Governor beckons for me
He'll clear my name. It appears that the inmates have overrun the asylum
There's a madman at the wheel
We are not even remotely capable of keeping our heads about us
We've abandoned all semblance of presence
Dead bolted, buckled in
Keeping our word to the sinking ship
Let the rats orchestrate the new mutiny
I'll meet you overboard
