lyrics

06. Tyrant

You thought you had it made when you came to power,
Ruling with an iron fist to make the people cower.
You’re a tyrant. And the people must obey.
You’re a tyrant. Gonna get your evil way.
But what goes around comes around and you’ll get yours someday.

Living in luxury the world is at your feet
While the people suffer, they just want something to eat.
You’re a tyrant. And the people must obey.
You’re a tyrant. Gonna get your evil way.
But what goes around comes around and you’ll get yours someday.

Genocide and other crimes against humanity.
You’d kill anyone against you, you’d kill anyone you see.
You’re a tyrant. And the people must obey.
You’re a tyrant. Gonna get your evil way.
But what goes around comes around and you’ll get yours someday.

One day the people will come to even out the score.
Whatcha gonna do when they’re breaking down your door?
You’re a tyrant. Thought you’d get your evil way.
You’re a tyrant. But the people won’t obey.
And what goes around comes around and you got yours today.
