lyrics

so here's a tale about the ones who tried to be the white whale
and now reality is dawning
so what's the use? you're obtuse, and reputation refuse
who's gonna answer when you're calling?

was it really worth it for your resume
to be remembered like Edward VIII?
To go down in infamy for a liar
to be remembered like Edward

you've been betrayed and defamed by a moron untamed
I guess you thought you would be special
you lie with dogs, wake up with fleas
more than a hint of disease, and
your integrity is wanting

stop and take a look in the mirror
try to see the picture
it's not too late to fight
