Sleeping with the enemy

My pillow gives me dreams,
of walls that separate the browns from me,

the president is calling

don't believe the truth

don't believe your eyes

I won the election - the sky is falling he cries

Oh woe is me

oh woe is you

Don't believe the truth

be strong be tough stand proud stand by

the sky is falling - you can't believe your eyes!

take it back

wrong is right

don't fear a line of blue,

like the sea of red it will part for you

and into the house you can fly

it's only insurrection if you lose

and I never lose, he cries.
