lyrics

Oh Stockhom Syndrome, you never let me down,
got me kissing the hand that knocks me down on the ground,
Stockholm Syndrome, it's running this town,
got a pitchfork mob of apologists, tearing My Lady down

She was a KIND OLD SOUL, She always shared her crown,
now She's a Wall Street whore, the joke of thieves and clowns,
Stockholm Syndrome, in every soul I see,
everything I have belongs to The King...

Well I went to the library, tried to place my vote,
they said "I'm sorry son...don't you know we don't count em' anymore?"
well I got so mad I ran home and I told my friends,
but they were all coming down with a case of Stockholm Syndrome again..

Nat Turner and John Brown walked into the bar,
all the holy men on the scene said "you righteous boys will go far"
but Stockholm Syndrome snuck up from behind,
they called the whole thing off and got drunk on their masters wine,

Well I still remember the day back in 1776,
when the founding fathers said: "you know...we should call it quits...
"well the evil King of England is breaking our backs,
but Stockholm Syndrome, maybe it isn't so bad"

Stockholm Syndrome in every soul I see,
everything you have belongs to The King,
Stockholm Syndrome in every soul I see,
everything I have belongs to The King...
