Do As I Say
I am disappointed at some of our so called leaders who make rules that they themselves won't follow. I had this melody in my head with the words “Do as I say and not as I do” every time I read, heard or watched an article or show where the politician would tell us to do one thing while they do the exact opposite of that. And if we don't comply they show us the barrel of a weapon. Hypocrites, they will show us who they really are.
Be wary. The person you thought you could trust, you can't. And the person you least expect you can trust, you can. Trust deeds not words
Do as I say and not as I do
Better not stray from my point of view
Do as I say and not as I do
You must obey or we’re comin' for you
I claim to have a vision of hope
A masterful sauce of utopian dope
Rules don’t apply to me cause I make the rules
The con is afoot since I’m hiding the truth.
Do as I say and not as I do
Better not stray from my point of view
Do as I say and not as I do
You must obey or we’re comin' for you
Easy for me to deflect all the blame
My minions are in on this part of the game
So many things I can accuse you of
But that is exactly what I’m Ha guilty of
So close your eyes
And spread those lies
But don’t get wise
My alibis are so convincingly true
Do as I say and not as I do
Better not stray from my point of view
Do as I say and not as I do
You must obey or we’re comin' for you
Hypocrisy reigns in the ruling class
There’s nothing to see here so you better not ask
Those dirty little secrets my power defends
If you find out it could be my end
Do as I say and not as I do
Better not stray from my point of view
Do as I say and not as I do
You must obey or we’re comin' for you
They’re coming for you
We’re comin' just for you.
