about

This is a song about the various climates of things in the world right now.

lyrics

Well he told me on a Monday
That he had his plans laid out
And a man he knew was smiling down
And that he had no doubt
That he mission that he started
Would be seen through until the end
And he took a city tour
Of someone else’s next of kin

And he told me to be careful
And he told me don’t down back down
And he talk of good and bad
And Of Black and white and brown
And then it flowed like molten lava
On the streets made just of stone
No longer paved with diamonds
And we’re walking all alone

Popping the Emperors balloon
I made a plan
Popping the Emprtors balloon
I think I can
I’m Popping the emperors balloon
Popping the empowered balloon

Well he cleared a path through history
That people rarely took
And a page from modern science
That is often over looked
And his cunning
And his cleaver
And he’s got some more in store
Scooping up the words of angels
From the dirty concrete floor

And The battle hymn is over
But the band is playing on
He will march to his own drummer
But he doesn’t know the song
It’s like a hidden message
Sitting in a falcons nest
But it’s cheesy and it’s corporate
Sitting watching falcon crest

He’s a robot child
Crying robot tears
He’s a robot magic master
Grinding robot gears

He held a conference for the masses
On a lawn of golden green
And he said he had the numbers
Calcuated by the king
And he start saying something
About rock and broken glass
But We could see him smiling
Through the blood and tears and gas

So we fumble through the channels
And we keep on saying names
And we worry and we isolate
And pray and misbehave
And we laugh at people crying
And we shoot down birds of prey
Like the falcon and the snowman
Coming home on judgement day
