lyrics

I'm hanging with the Lotus Eaters
they own Qdoba
that's how they push their product out to democratic voters
first they got the smokers
then Jared Leto's joker
they passed on Heath and Joaquin
chose to focus on the posters saying
"America your four year nightmare it is over.
now it's time to govern, oh govern--I barely know her.
let's laugh at Southern states using snowblowers.
faces so straight look like they been playing poker,
ah haha now we got em, we ain't solving any of your problems
keep these kids up in they cages til they really know what pain is
one day will come along a Phoebe bridges song
don't need no therapy when she gon take away your anguish"

every president a wartime president
evil ain't now alien, it's a resident
lives up on the hill our country represent
Lotus eaters come around to pay respect
these mythical beasts own casual restaurants
pictures of feet sold by digital debutants
I know that you in love with this feeling you been ensconced but
it's a new era you gon miss it when it's gone
it's a new era you being right has made you wrong

you been getting sober
I been staying soulless
heading out to Jimmy D's and
Jonathan Pistola's
hoped no one would notice
power of the Lotus
hanging with the boys we been
eating out control it's like a
woo woo woo
I just met the POTUS
POTUS?
every president a wartime president

farm that marijuana plant with some chains and some whips
I don't say this lightly
money do excite me
I'm a good person though,
please underwrite me
I deserve the capital flows that I been getting
I ain't no conservative hoe,
man fuck religion
watch it as my capital grow, watch and listen
It's growing like a beanstalk
fire all the mean cops

thank god I think for myself
to hear what I just said would be my personal hell
to vote against these checks would signal personal wealth
I'll keep that to myself until they force me to tell
but I'm not gonna tell
ain't no way I go could own up
If I told you the truth you'd know you getting fucked over
I said "sit back, relax, it's the way of the Lotus"
then I let them eat cake and take em out to Qdoba
