about
"The emperor of the free world is you. He's the consumer who enslaves the money-hungry-headless-beast-companies. He's the semi conscious godhead trying to wake up from endless torpedoes of distraction. Our grandparents fought and complained against their own grandparents. The complaining is gone in our generation. It is time to take the reins of our empire. Long live the emperor of the free world!"
lyrics
Long Live
Long Live
Long Live the emperor of the free world.
Mercy be to those who passed,
Dante would give them a circle in hell and it'd be the last.
Glory to the dead, let us not forget,
Let us keep a photo tag as a memorial up on the internet.
Had a good time, down in New Orleans,
Had a good time in Vegas playing with the plasticine.
If you're feeling good, then it can't be fake,
Snorkling in the pool and shaking up the booze down it in sharmel sheik. (shake it, shake it with me)
Long Live
Long Live
Long Live the emperor of the free world.
Malibu Beach, Malibu sun,
In hollywood your chances are but a million to none.
You can stretch your arms through the vast blue sky,
Feed your Facebook farm and Mafia, hell you can even die.
Long Live
Long Live
Long Live the emperor of the free world.
Long live the princes of the new age.
Long live their toys and all the things they say.
Long Live everything that you see on tv, long live britney!
Long live liberty!
