Lyrics
Washington Is Next!
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The quiet war has begun with silent weapons
And the new slavery is to keep the people
Poor and stupid, Novus Ordo Seclorum
How can there be any logic in biological war?
We all know this is wrong, but the New World Order's
Beating down the door, oh something needs to be done
There was a King (evil king) who dreamt the wickeness of dreams
An ancient mystery no prophet could interpret
Of seven years of famine, the wolf is at my door
As predicted years ago, that that was, that is, that is no more
The word predicts the future and tells the truth about the past
Of how the world leaders will hail the New Pharaoh
The Eighth False King to the Throne, Washington is next!
Disengage their minds, sabotage their health
Promote sex, and war, and violence in the kindergartens
Blame the parents and teachers; it's their fault, Annuit Coeptis
Attack the church dynamic, attack the family
Keep the public undisciplined till nothing left is sacred and
The have-nots get hooked and have to go to the haves just to cop a fix
I am the King (evil king) who dreams the wickedness of dreams
An ancient mystery nobody could interpret
Of seven empires falling, the wolf is at my door
As predicted years ago, that that was, that is, that is no more
The word predicts my future and tells the truth about my past
Of how the world leaders are waiting to usher in
The Eighth World Power of modern Rome, Washington is Next!
There was a King (evil king) who dreamt the wickness of dreams
An ancient mystery no prophet could interpret
Of seven empires falling, the wolf is at the door
As predicted years ago, that that was, that is, that is no more
I am a King and I dream the wildest dreams
And nobody could interpret
Seven empires falling, the wolf is at my door
Oh, that that was, that is, that is no more
There's something at my door
Some ancient mystery
The future tells the truth about the past
I'm the Eighth False King to the throne
I've got you in my crosshairs, now, ain't that a bitch?
Washington, you're next!
