Edge of the Empire

 

ratings so high
dollar signs in the eyes
feel the power
can't let go
fat lady puking in the damn studio

the seat is a hotty
i feel like john gotti
on trial on a talk show
hosted by geraldo
geraldo rivera
he give me a scare-a
i run my mascara

he wants to make himself feel better than the rest of us
hopes his loaded questions and disguises get the best of us
pregnant hip-hop gangstas and o.j.
punk rock make overs teleprompters say

ratings so high
dollar signs in the eye
feel the power
can't let go
fat lady puking in the studio
desire
empire

puppet on a string
controversy is the king
desire
edge of the empire

tell you a story
how i fell from glory
can't turn off the channel
as he bates the panel
like some junkie bakin'
they roll ricki lake in
the dollars that the advertising scheme is makin'

they want to make themselves feel better than the rest of us
hope the loaded questions and disguises get the best of us
kid got a gun he's the chosen one
father having sex with his son

ratings so high
dollar signs in the eye
feel the power
can't let go
fat lady puking in the studio
desire
empire

puppet on a string
controversy is the king
desire
edge of the empire
