Driving home from my meth lab Realized something had changed Looked in the sky Saw with my eye The moon was following me

Where's the shadow government when you need it? Where's the shadow government? It's a bad, bad world It's a bad, bad world

Sifting through the confetti I picked up my broken phone Looked in the crack Somebody waved back Just sitting on their somebody throne

Where's the shadow government when you need it? Where's the shadow government? It's a bad, bad world It's a bad, bad

[Cowering citizens:] [The shadow government:] Up the library steps Up the library steps Up the library steps Up the library steps (Here comes) Up the library steps (The Humvee) Up the library steps (The Humvee) Up the library steps

Crawling out of the flophouse I saw the mayor stealing my junk I doth protest, citizen's arrest Now my body's in his trunk

Where's the shadow government when you need it? Where's the shadow government? It's a bad, bad world It's a bad, bad world It's a bad, bad
