“YOU’RE SO NAÏVE!” [new song lyrics]

[To be sung like a mass football terrace chant ]

So now you have a “Savio(u)r” who you think is the real deal.
Some say he’s from the Pleaides, as the channellers reveal!
But how come I am standing here with heaviness of heart?
It’s a tragedy in Grecian style and we all have a part.

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!

Imagining you have a choice, you make that choice with glee.
So one is ‘woke’, while one asserts fake ‘Christianity’.
“What kind of choice is that?” I ask; but you don’t give a damn.
You’re so conditioned not to see you’ve fallen for a scam!

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!

He tapped into the mindset of the redneck Bible Belt;
then played them with his clichés which matched up with what they felt.
They think he’s their ‘messiah’ come, but therein lies their fall;
the power-elite will take him out if he will not play ball.

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!

He never could’ve been the Prez unless he had a STASH
of filthy lucre (in the States, you need such tainted cash).
Don’t believe the hype which says he’s just a guy self-made;
you gotta have “connections” or you cannot make the grade.

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!

Make-believing every day we’re going to be free —
hoping that some human being will offer us the key.
When we put a cross upon a sheet (our duty done?),
imagining he’ll pave the way for evil to be gone.

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!

Such a clever move it is to get you all to vote
against all independent thought — the perfect antidote.
Now that your “Messiah” is in, you’re feeling so relieved;
I’m flabbergasted at a world so lost in make-believe.

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!

“The savio(u)r for our time has come!” (we’ve heard it all before).
On every new election-day, it’s déjà vu encore!
You play the part prepared for you like puppets on a string.
From where I stand all I can see is just another ‘sting’.

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!

They lead us by the nose to vote the way they want us to;
and then we think democracy’s the greatest thing to do.
The PR guys have got a phrase (it’s “engineered consent”)
to help us see the media’s role in electoral events.

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!

The POTUS is a GUI to satisfy the mass
of those with no discernment and whose choices are so crass.
Led by the nose to choose between a phony and a shill,
they’re blinded by celebrity yet claim they have freewill!

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!

You’re gloating now because your chosen ‘savio(u)r’ has just won;
while others are down in the dumps ’cause they’re outside the fun.
So many in the world are being distracted by deceit!
Red or blue — for truth it is a miserable defeat.

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!

It doesn’t matter who’s the Prez, the same guys run the show
behind the scenes, they just ensure he won’t disturb the flow
of all the plans they’re making for a one-world government.
With all your rank naivete you’ve given them consent!

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!

In case your sensibilities by my words are upset,
I have to tell you frankly that “you ain’t seen nothin’ yet”!
The machinations which we see at this election time
are rehearsals for a far worse scene that’s further down the line.

[Refrain]
You’re so naïve!
The power-elite are laughing up their sleeves
You’re exactly what they need
Their power-games you feed
You’re so naïve!
