you thought this would be easier
the free world on a string
sit there on your golden throne
and make 'em all kiss the ring
all your life's a broken trail of
artless heartless deals
no one in the universe but you
was really real
but now the ones who built you up
can't wait to burn you down
wolves are scratching at the door
icing for the clown
that gallery of feckless thugs
who thought you had a plan
hitched their wagons to a tiny
fraction of a man
when there's no one left around
to say you are the guy
you're out of your element donnie
reality distortion field
deny deny deny
you're out of your element donnie
when people die
russia's on the intertron
there's COVID in the air
swastikas are piling up
and you don't seem to care
now the walls are closing in
your seat is just the edge
suddenly the knives are long
and no one says alleged
when there's no one left around
to say you are the guy
you're out of your element donnie
reality distortion field
you lie you lie you lie
but you're out of your element
when the ones who put you there
take it from your derriere
the cash cow that you milked
is now the old grey mare
tu es viré, mon chere
are you tired of winning yet?
are you sick of winning yet?
are you tired?
when there's no on left around
to say you are the guy
the whole wide world is waiting
for the fireworks to fly
you're out of your element donnie
buh bye
