Look at these people – amazing how sheep will
Show up for the slaughter
No one condemning you – lined up like lemmings
You led to the water
Why can’t they see what I see? Why can’t they hear the lies?
Maybe the fee’s too pricey for them to realize
Your disguise is slipping
I think you’re slipping
Now that your savior is still as the grave you’re
Beginning to fear me
Like cavemen fear thunder – I still have to wonder
Can you really hear me?
I bring you pain, the kind you can’t suffer quietly
Fire up your brain, remind you inside you’re rioting
Society is slipping
Everything’s slipping away
So…
Go ahead – run away
Say it was horrible
Spread the word – tell a friend
Tell them the tale
Get a pic – do a blog
Heroes are over with
Look at him – not a word
Hammer, meet nail
Then I win – then I get
Everything I ever
All the cash – all the fame
And social change
Anarchy – that I run
It’s Dr. Horrible’s turn
You people all have to learn
This world is going to burn
Burn
(yeah, it’s two r’s. H, O, R, R, yeah right.)
Burn
No sign of Penny – good.
I would give anything not to have her see
It’s gonna be bloody – head up Billy buddy
There’s no time for mercy
Here goes – no mercy…
