Good Boy - Paris Paloma

I knew one day that I'd have to watch
Powerful men burn the world down
I just didn't expect them to be such losers
I have never seen submission
Embodied half so well
As in the feeble competition
Between men with souls to sell
And I have never seen a guard dog
With less fearsome of a bite
Than with its tail between its legs
Found at the rich man's side
Look at him he's sweating
He's sweating from the climb
Office worker soldier CEO
He's bleeding and he's blind
And I have never seen a creature
More pitiful than him
He drinks power like saltwater
All because he cannot swim
Mouths open
Servants of a higher power
They told him
“It's a staircase it's a tower”
Full circle
Wagging tails wearing a collar
Poor madman that's what happens
When you drink saltwater
Burned your tongue too early
And realised too late
The tragedy of losing
Everything you'll never taste
The clearness of the river
The honey on her tongue
Door open to communion
Being your father's son
And I would not expect you
To witness what we know
The songs sung in the dark times
The fire in the snow
We'll be piling up our pyre
And you defend your lords
And we will have our joy
But it will never be yours
Mouths open
Servants of a higher power
They told him
“It's a staircase it's a tower”
Full circle
Wagging tails wearing a collar
Even the dogs know not to drink saltwater
Good boy
You're working exactly as intended
Has the penny dropped you're never gonna get it?
Unrewarded for all of your defending
From your loneliness epidemic
Good boy
Has any of the money trickled down yet?
You say one day you'll be rich well tell me how then
Unpaid marketing department for the power

Mouths open
You're working exactly as intended
Servants of a higher power
Has the penny dropped you're never gonna get it?

Unrewarded for all of your defending
“It's a staircase it's a tower”
From your loneliness epidemic
Full circle
Has any of the money trickled down yet?
Wagging tails wearing a collar
You say one day you'll be rich well tell me how then
Even the dogs know not to drink saltwater
Unpaid marketing department for the power
