about

Me and Sample wanted to write a tune about everyone's least favourite media mogul. Bouncing baselines and crunchy drums overlaid with an angry political diatribe.

lyrics

(Intro)
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
Come in, be still and listen to a story
Of monsters, demons and prejudice.
A tale of betrayal, duplicity and lies.
A brief insight into the way our country is run.
It all begins with a man from Australia...

(Verse 1)
Who has the power at the end of the fight?
Is it the commie at the left or the bitch on the right?
Is it the monarch at the top, devoid of power or might?
No, it's the media, mate, owned by the man out of sight,
Who sits there and schemes the downfall of the nation
Patiently tracing out his animation.
Making people racist with indignation
At imaginary enemies and disinformation.
He hacked our phones and still he got let off.
He bribed politicians with his private yacht.
He lied to The British and monopolised the red tops,
Buying up the stock and now he owns the lot.
Ya know Westminster bows to the will of his views.
Disregards the lives of many for the sake of the few.
Big Brother now exists for the suits in blue
And working class people read right wing news.

(Chorus)
Run my friends (run)
It's Josef Goebbels born again (cunt)
Reigning over empires
Devouring the sun

(Interlude)
Ah, speaking of the sun,
He owns the sun, he owns the sky.
He owns the power to control your mind.
Some Orwellian shit, because he colluded
With the Iron lady to be the master of time
Don't forget that within this litany of sins is the fact that he put personal profit over the privacy and safety of a murdered teenage girl's grieving family - What a guy!

(Verse 2)
And did you know that on the 4th of January 1981,
He met with the devil for to strike up a secret deal
So they could choose how the news was spun.
40% was the share he secured in exchange
For selling out the partisans.
And grinning inanely he allowed that bitch,
To hold the power of press in the palm of her hand.
(Uh!) If that villain had a soul he'd be ashamed of the lies, and the crimes and the hate.
(Uh!) If he was around at the time of Adolf and Goebbels then they'd be best mates.
The president trumps and then he wipes he arse
And he provides his with news so he can masturbate.
So let's root out the fox and destroy fake news,
cos something is rotten in the 4th estate.

(Chorus)
Run my friends (run)
It's Josef Goebbels born again (cunt)
Reigning over empires
Devouring the sun(Chorus)
Run my friends (ruuuuuuunnnnnn)
It's Josef Goebbels born again (you cuuuuuuunnnnnnnnt)
Reigning over empires (run)
Devouring the sun (cunt)

(Outro)
So ladies and gentlemen, that's the end of today's story.
So when you're blaming immigration
And benefit cheats for the state of our nation
For problems caused by tax evasion,
Backdoor deals and press manipulation,
Remember: Nobody is laughing harder than Rupert fucking M---------
