lyrics

Intro
He’s going down,
He’s going down,
He’s going down.

Verse
Now how ‘bout that? They’re fed up,
You’ve got a chance now, I hope you said what,
You wanted to say, ‘cause at the end of the day,
There’s only one way to your dismay,
It’s poison, they want you to die,
Don’t cry, you know I see that tear in your eye,
You say that it’s fine, you say that it’s time,
But I know you’re just lyin’.

Chorus
He’s going down, it looks like no one wants you around,
He’s going down,
He’s going down, Athenians have grown tired of your sound,
He’s going down.

Verse
You like to call it exposing ignorance,
Well, I call it just being a fucking dick,
So die, no one cares, it seems fair,
Fast forward a few years and give you the chair,
Now this just seems like pure cruelty,
How is it that more want you dead than find you guilty?
Oh, well, go to your jail cell,
Thanks for 70 years of hell.

Chorus
He’s going down, it looks like no one wants you around,
He’s going down,
He’s going down, Athenians have grown tired of your sound,
He’s going down.

Bridge
He’s going down.
x 12

Chorus
He’s going down, it looks like no one wants you around,
He’s going down,
He’s going down, Athenians have grown tired of your sound,
He’s going down.
