lyrics

At three in the morning
with anger and labor
Another trust fund baby
Crashed another manger

Though unintended
the breeders were pleased
Nary a complication
And nothing unforeseen

To the madmen over the wall
Full of nicotine and raven’s squall
You didn’t get what you bargained for
When you let him through the door

A few hours later
He came down with a fever
They weren’t allowed to fix it
The senators warned them to list him

To the madmen over the wall
He heard the screams, all he does is stall
He places bets on the plight of the hopeless
When you let him on the floor

He’s xenophobic
He is quixotic
He is a liar
Lies under fire

He couldn’t say goodbye
Anchors heaved, and began to fly
There is no future
The one percent stood up from their knees and preached

To the madmen over the wall
Full of nicotine and raven’s squall
You didn’t get what you bargained for
When you let him through the door

To the madmen over the wall
He heard the screams, all he does is stall
He places bets on the plight of the hopeless
When you let him on the floor

He’s xenophobic
He is quixotic

He is a liar
Lies under fire

He’s xenophobic
He is quixotic
He is a liar

He’s xenophobic
He is quixotic

He’s xenophobic
He is quixotic

To the madmen over the wall
Full of nicotine and raven’s squall
You didn’t get what you bargained for
When you let him through the door

To the madmen over the wall
heard the screams, all he does is stall
He places bets on the plight of the hopeless
When you let him on the floor
