[Verse 1]
Remember Pericles?
He democratized the city with his mind
A little wisdom never hurt anyone
Tell that to Socrates
Telling the citizens what they needed to hear
But still they fed him hemlock
Now the Greeks don't speak my language
I don't get the relevance
I am irreverent, I have no reverence
Show me no deference, I'll do the same for you
La la la la
[Chorus]
Did you ever know you're my tragic hero?
You be the pity; I'll be the fear
And every subscriber will know
What a truly great man you are
[Verse 2]
In the conference room, he said to me quote:
Avoid your generation's
Proclivity for irony and negativity
Held so commonly
Don't let me down, son
