Blind Saturn falls asleep in the White House
so Bacchus leads zombie army of fools
to raid the Garden of Eden again
where Satan plays chess with skulls of the dead,
when the wise Clown of Aleppo is killed
protecting nameless children from his greed.

Now King Bozo nominates Gomer Pyle
to direct the Department of Defense,
so he knocks Humpty Dumpty off the wall
to let Daffy Duck steal gold from our bank,
when the wise Clown of Aleppo is killed
protecting nameless children from his greed.

After Santa Clause arrives back in town,
riding his silver limousine of wealth,
he climbs gold tower protected by dump trucks
and sits on the huge throne to drink our blood,
when the wise Clown of Aleppo is killed
protecting nameless children from his greed.

Laughing as he steals keys to every home,
King Midas sends his sons in army tanks
to pillage the peasants who crowned him king
and basks in their praise as he robs them blind,
when the wise Clown of Aleppo is killed
protecting nameless children from his greed.

Though Gandalf roams from sea to shining sea
to fight the balrogs in gray business suits,
the people cry for Galadriel to save them,
but she weeps in tower where Rapunzel died,
when the wise Clown of Aleppo is killed
protecting nameless children from his greed.

Tyrion hides in the cave where Plato dreams
shadows of truth that dance on wall of hope,
while Frodo wanders lost in city maze,
trying to sell some ring for a bite to eat,
when the wise Clown of Aleppo is killed
protecting nameless children from his greed.

After Athena frees all men from chains
and gives every woman the jewel of love,
who will arrive on the dragon of justice
to topple the Golden Calf Christians worship,
when the wise Clown of Aleppo is killed
protecting nameless children from his greed.

Be a good person and do the right thing,
no matter how the president may act,
by following the star of your own ideals
to transform waste land into paradise,
though the wise Clown of Aleppo is killed
protecting nameless children from his greed.
