Wordburglar Venomous Ideology
[verse 1]
Alright, I used to be a man
Who tried to play by the rules
I worked hard, had a wife
Walked my kid to his school
A simple fool like my brother
Who fought in their wars
In exchange for drinking problems
And a loss of support
Not anymore-
They found his body spread across the highway
Head-on collision with some family who couldn't drive straight
Irate, I lost the American Dream
Went from selling used cars to running pyramid schemes
Hoodwinking investors
That's where I got my first case
Recruited like minds
We met on Thursdays
Because money buys weapons
And very good lawyers
Next thing you know I got an island
Plus some tank destroyers
I must be doing something right
Is what I told myself
Kidnapping presidents, throw them into holding cells
See I'm like no one else
A rattle charmer
Going to work in helmet, hood and battle armor
I'm a brainwasher bleeding hearts and hippies
Carve my face in the moon
So you'll never forget me
Put mind control in everything-
Perfume to chewing gum
Psychos and maniacs?
I'm always interviewing some
New members
Man haven't you heard?
Ask my accountant
He's the one dressed like a bird
I turn your town around
Until you're living like royalty
And all I ask is nothing but unquestioning loyalty
[Hook]
I'm the man, the mask, the myth, the urban legend
The snake in the grass that you're never sure where I'm headin'
I'll be the vermin you're frettin'
Certain you're nervous and sweatin'
From the way I earn my rep with less conservative weapons

[verse 2]
I got a burning ambition
And a venomous ideology
A thing for snakes
And cutting-edge high technology
My economy?
Diamonds to ruples
And my philosophy?
Who needs scruples
Morality, ethics, those are just a curse to carry
If I got any problems, got a rolodex of mercenaries
To hurt and bury, I'm trying to keep the hate alive
No I'm not crazy-
Just dangerously destabilized
It pays to lie
Truth is, whatever I say to guys
Anything I don't like-
I vaporize
Robots with laser eyes
Zap your mom while she's baking pies
I'm Cobra Commander
Exactly what the name implies
Take the prize for charismatic, sociopathic
Words hook you like some opium addicts
You're lonely and tragic
Time to get open to habit
Running rackets through whatever helps the scope of my ravage
To cope with the madness-
You gotta be a bit nutty
I just want to rule the globe
I'm not that fussy
Complete chaos, corporation lay-offs
Labor from your neighbors doing favors for some pay-offs
Make you quit your day job
Stick it to your lame boss
Aiming for your veins engrave my name in your brain, ha!
Insane plots is what I consider mad fun
I love ideas
Especially the bad ones
[Hook]
