US Against the World

He won’t stand for any opposition
At any time or any place
He’ll knock you down with great volition
Then he’ll throw it in your face

He is the king of all he sees
On every subject he knows best
There is no island he can’t seize
To rule the planet is his quest

Do you dare to call him brutal?
He will show you what it means
All attempts to calm him futile
He acts just like an impulsive teen

He will strike out anyone
Friends and enemies are the same
All who live beneath the sun
Must bow down to his name

Not content to rule one nation
He alone would have it all
All the earth in subjugation
The rise before a fatal fall
