In that 4 years we expect this person to find solutions to problems that we have been creating for hundreds of years. If not thousands.
In just 4 years we accumulate enough mistakes and burdens to pass on to the next elected CEO of this nation. To boldly blame this person for the problems we cannot solve individually.
Technology has allowed me to post this demo'd song for anyone to hear. Ironically the same technology allows us all to point our fingers at someone who voluntarily signed himself up to be our very own scapegoat...which again, ironically, points that same finger back at ourselves.
Pay no attention to the fool on the hill trying to hide his disguise
Haze and smoke behind the mirrors as the years burn red in your eyes
Pass that buck like a flame and we'll know who to blame this time
Ask that man in the hot seat sweatin' through the cracks of his mind
We got a scapegoat now, we knew he'd turn up somehow
So take your problems on down to the man with the two horned crown
We got him now...we got a scapegoat now...we got him now!
Bend right over til your back starts to break from the weight in your arms
Send your burdens to the top because they never seem to cause him harm
He was made to take a punch we just never had a hunch who he was
See him wobble back and forth at the podium of promises
We got a scapegoat now, we knew he'd turn up somehow
So take your problems on down to the man with the two horned crown
We got him now...we got a scapegoat now...we got him now!
Hold your laughter at the bank til you're sure that you're walking away
Throw your money on a steak while you talk about the good old days
Who could have guessed at the price that you're payin' for your gasoline
But you'll never have to think twice if you don't have a clue what it means
To have a scapegoat now, we knew he'd turn up somehow
So take your problems on down to the man with the two horned crown
We got him now...we got a scapegoat now...we got him now!

You hit the nail on the head. It's a shame we humans keep repeating the mistakes and not learning the lessons, putting the nails in our own coffins instead. Maybe more people will hear this message and take accountability and be the change.
