The Emperor Has No Clothes by Taylor Mason

 

The Emperor Has No Clothes by Taylor Mason

The Emperor Has No Clothes

(Click the link above to play the music.)

The sun is finally setting on summer twenty-ten
We’re living in a story by Hans Christian Andersen
The feds sued Arizona and our nerves are pretty raw
The last thing we want is police enforcing law
Father’s hide your daughters – Polanski was set free
LeBron starred in his own version of “Despicable Me”
Barack is Louis XIV, Michelle is Marie Antoinette
Or maybe he’s a paper king, even better yet…

The president’s an emperor just as the story goes
Any schoolboy can tell you: the emperor has no clothes

Everyone is outta work, the economy won’t budge
Airlines started charging for emotional baggage
Debt and a recession, what’s a president to do?
3 or 4 vacations and show up on “The View”
And just when things look bleakest he gives us a speech
And turns NASA into Muslim outreach
He spoke of hope and he spoke of change and spoke of a brighter future
It might be time for me to get a Lindsey Lohan manicure

Then he changes his opinion. Then he strikes a royal pose.
Anyone can see it: the emperor has no clothes.

You could say the Middle East is now Backwards-Land.
We fight the Taliban in Afghanistan
We get help from Pakistan
But Pakistan helps the Taliban
Which is something I can’t understand
Russia helps to build a nuke for Iran
Now we way we’re leaving, it’s the end of this long war
Israel you’re on your own, we don’t like you any more.

They say we’re making progress. Based on what? Nobody knows.
Can’t see the forest for the Bush. The emperor has no clothes.

We’re supposed to be post-racial.
But it seems to me
There is more division
And a lot less unity.
Blame the racist, blame the cracker
Blame the white folks tea party
They deserve to be profiled racially
Roger Clemens lied so well to congress he could be a senator
Nobody knows what’s happening cuz we’re watching “Jersey Shore”

He might have won the election, but now he’s been exposed.
Transparent just like he promised. The emperor has no clothes.
