Do the Sycophant

Who are you?

You're just a suit

A boring man with nothing to lose



You don't know me

Or all that I do

This world's in twain and it's all thanks to you



You're just a thief

A bit of unrest

Watch me in awe as I devour your best



You've got it all wrong

There's no turning 'round

Tell me I'm pretty and bring down the town



You've got nothing special and that's all that it is

You're some kind of nobody that can't get the gist

You're just like those bastards that won't leave me alone

I could tear them to pieces and they'd return on their own



You say I'm the hero that carries your fame

You call me for cover and shout out my name

You watch me demolish castle and stone

You misplace the blame as I topple the throne



You praise me so Godlike and cheer for my strength

You point out your fingers and lay me to waste

You struggle for nothing and slip through the pipes

You are the start to the end of the right,



So, do the Sycophant

Thrown to the skies

Do the Sycophant

Say your goodbyes



Do the Sycophant

Shuffling steel

Do the Sycophant

Down at my heels,



And what to do

With you my friend

Your movement here is a means to an end



And there you go

Your worship means

That you will be nothing left to me



All I want

Is for you to bend

To act the fool and pretend to pretend



Be genuine

And let me see

If a human side is within your reach,



So do the Sycophant

We'll dance all night

Do the Sycophant

We'll fall in slight



Do the Sycophant

I'll show you how

Do the Sycophant

To rain hell down,



You're a Sycophant and you know what to say

To cling to me as I soar away

You're a Sycophant and you make me ill

You're only good when there's time to kill



And I can't mess with you in times like these

The public waits for me to please

And I'm on my way to disaster road

To show them all what these hands are for,



So do the Sycophant with me.
