Absolute Power - Powermad

Folk hero leader from one warring faction

Peaceful existence will justify action

Climbing the ladder with assassinations

Military coup for the rule of the nations

Tasting the freedom to do as he pleases

The more people struggle, the tighter he squeezes

Generals and ministers do as he tells them

His whole creed of ethics turns Machiavellian

Power, Absolute Power

Corrupts absolutely

Despot dictator delusions of grandeur

His role is the God-man, the judge and jurors

Violence and treachery character defects

Sadistic perversion unleashed on his subjects

Power, Absolute Power

Corrupts absolutely

More force is needed to keep things in order

Generals are plotting his imminent murder

The walls of his fortress are now walls of iron

His immortal empire collapses upon him

Power, Absolute Power

Corrupts absolutely
