For all the tory voters out there, for the brevity voters, for the trump supporters, the fox news watchers, those who choose selfish people for selfish reasons and then are astonished when they act selfishly.
This is for the three little pigs voting for the wolf.
lyrics
This isn't going how I planned it
I was supposed to be on top of the world
I demanded it
I wanted the things I hate to stop
This isn't going how I planned it
I'd had enough hiding my thoughts
Of being told I don't understand it
I damn well knew I knew enough
But now there is one thing that I don't understand
He's not hurting who he's supposed to be hurting
He's not supposed to be hurting me
This is going how he said it would
He promised to give me what I want
He'd send them all back where they came from
He'd keep the wolf from at our door
But this now feels like a betrayal
If this is a lie then what else?
Did he lie on the campaign trail?
Can he keep the wolf at bay at all?
I don't think so
He's not hurting who he's supposed to be hurting
He's not supposed to be hurting me
Oh god.
Is he the wolf?
