lyrics

El Presidente became sick of young disillusioned men in their bedrooms cutting up recordings of his speeches to make it sound like he was saying things like “I am a completely gay dictator who will sleep with your elderly pets,” so he started using sophisticated software that analysed every possible combination of words to ensure his announcements couldn’t be negatively edited, but this was so difficult to do that quickly his statements became shorter and shorter and used such bizarre and antiquated phrases that no one understood him anymore. This was proof to the people that he’d finally gone completely insane and was no longer fit to govern. The final straw before the violent coup was a supposed morale-boosting declaration from him on Freedom Day that went like this:

“I Deshalolling the trumpish coupodntu of the nauraliata and denumonting on its boonami incongrua is really like the grananidrop tref art of the entirely solaristapnadri to you.”

In prison awaiting execution, El Presidente was played a re-edit of his final speech by a young lad living on the outskirts of the capital. It was short and sweet and went like this: “I really really like to fart on you.”
