#DontGetConnedAgain (lyrics)
Verse 1:
Don the Con, the fraudster,
Shallow, hollow, ethical void,
The trickster, the twister,
Turn truth into lies, lies into truth,
Pied piper playing the victim blame game.
Pre-Chorus:
Fear-monger, markets spite, hate, rage,
Improvising, captivating, mesmerizing,
Manipulates minds, induce cult trances,
Blind unconditional loyalty, no guilt,
Reptilian brains reign, rule the mob.
Chorus:
Propaganda spin, lies, fake news,
Grabbing power, dominates,
Scapegoating people, projecting faults,
The dark side rigs the rules,
Win at all costs, that’s all that matters,
Let’s hack the con man’s game,
End the sham reign. Let’s not get conned again.

Verse 2:
Red lines, gerrymander, vote suppression,
Break the rules, fix the game,
Moral hypocrisy lost, integrity gone
In the name of law and order
Pre-Chorus: repeat
Chorus: repeat
?Bridge:
Let’s crack open unwoke wall,
Set freedom free, to the drum beat of truth,
Lets restore fairness, kindness, decency,
And the virtues of our dreams.
Chorus:
Propaganda spin, lies, fake news,
Grabbing power, dominates,
Scapegoating people, projecting faults,
The dark side rigs the rules,
Winning at all costs, that’s all that matters
Let’s hack the con man’s game,
End the sham reign. Let’s not get conned again.
Outro 1:
End chaos, lawlessness, and disorder
Biases, isms, prejudices, inequities, discrimination,
Break free from indoctrination,
People and the planet above profit
Outro 2:
We’ll stand as one for equity and liberty,
Fair rules, fair game, fair play,
Fair opportunities and rewards,
Justice peace, harmony to benefit all.
Let’s hack,
Let’s hack the con man,
Let’s hack the con man’s game.
Let’s not get conned again
