“Power built on totalitarian principles cannot admit its mistakes… This power sees conspiracy everywhere behind its back, so it lives with its head turned backwards, checking that no one is following it, that no one is dreaming up a revolution.” – Maria Alyokhina
Big smile for the camera, it’s always on
It’s all in the protocol, they tapped my phone
Golden idols holding rifles, take my body, anybody
I’m your trophy, make my nose bleed, now you own me
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could die
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could cry
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could die (everybody’s doing the same and it makes me happy, yeah, and it makes me happy, yeah)
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could cry (everybody’s doing the same and it makes me happy, yeah, and it makes me happy, yeah)
No problems in paradise, we’ll lock them up
We all gotta sacrifice, it won’t be long
Shut the borders, burn the other, sons and daughters, and the mothers
Drink the Kool-Aid, it’s a new way, do what I say
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could die
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could cry
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could die (everybody’s doing the same and it makes me happy, yeah, and it makes me happy, yeah)
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could cry (everybody’s doing the same and it makes me happy, yeah, and it makes me happy, yeah)
Golden idols holding rifles, take my body, anybody
I’m your trophy, make my nose bleed, now you own me
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could die
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could cry
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could die (everybody’s doing the same and it makes me happy, yeah, and it makes me happy, yeah)
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could cry (everybody’s doing the same and it makes me happy, yeah, makes me happy, yeah)
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could die (everybody’s doing the same and it makes me happy, yeah, and it makes me happy, yeah)
Oh my god, I’m so happy I could cry (everybody’s doing the same and it makes me happy, yeah, and it makes me happy, yeah)
