Motherland

Todd Rundgren


Now, the usual formalities
Everyone, hold all your questions please
You'll have your opportunities to
Shoot the breeze or cut the cheese

But upon this juncture I must state
How immensely you appreciate
The illusion of grandeur I create
When every trait I overrate
And every word gesticulate
In praise of the motherland

Puff we now ourselves with pride
Swelling outward far and wide
For God Herself is on our side
With heaven's plan for the motherland

Regardless of to what we pledge
The electorate gives me the edge
And the boost to my ego that can't be measured
Ruling you is such a pleasure

Speaking of good taste in dames
I submit to you my list of names
Maybe some of them come up short on brains
But good at diplomatic games
And sycophantic without shame
I give you the cabinet

The privilege is strictly ours
To have you watch while we devour
The crumbs of presidential power
That we can grub from Lilly

She's got the wardrobe we adore
Her teeth are perfect, what is more
She knows what having friends is for
We're silly over Lilly
Silly over Lilly
'Til we're ill, we'll sing it shrilly

Lilly is the nation's pride
And we love her like a mother

You don't know what this means to me
To be the one you run to see when
You need a mother

Tell us prime minister
Tell us prime minister
For the record
One time, prime minister

Sources state
That the Archbishop's hiding some
Thing of interest
Something of interest

Sources state
Maybe you're just a puppet of
Special interest
Some special interest
Special interest
Some special interest

We would like to know your posture please
On the hard line's platform policies
Like providing free to all the nation
Mandatory mass castration

For the sake of common decency
The Judeo-Christian society
Wants to guarantee a pregnancy
To anyone past twenty-three

Tell us prime minister
Tell us prime minister
We've fresh ugly rumors going 'round

For the sake of party unity
I've got photographs you'd like to see

Puff we now ourselves with pride
Swelling outward far and wide
For God Herself is on our side
With heaven's plan for the motherland
