Gothic Blonde - Original Lyrics and Compositions by Johanez Johnston Copyright 2025 Aberdare Multimedia Bubble Gum Politics [Intro] In shadows deep where empires crumble low, The throne of fools gleams with a hollow glow, Whispers of the masses rise like smoke, Ignored by kings in silk and gilded yoke, A storm awakens, history's cruel joke. [Verse 1] The streets are lined with broken dreams and chains, Promises dissolved in acid rains, Leaders feast on lies, their tables grand, While hunger claws at every empty hand, We scream for justice, lost in shifting sands. [Chorus] Bubble gum politics, sticky and sweet, Clinging to lies on their polished elite, Stuck to the soles of their power-drunk feet, Chewed up and spat out, our fate incomplete, Bubble gum empire, crumbling defeat. [Verse 2] Corruption blooms like thorns in barren soil, Elections rigged, a serpent's endless coil, They build their walls of gold and ivory bone, Deaf to the cries from the forgotten zone, Our voices echo, fading into stone. [Chorus] Bubble gum politics, sticky and sweet, Clinging to lies on their polished elite, Stuck to the soles of their power-drunk feet, Chewed up and spat out, our fate incomplete, Bubble gum empire, crumbling defeat. [Verse 3] The guillotine's shadow haunts the marble halls, A French king's ghost recalls the fatal falls, He laughed at pleas from peasants in the mud, Now echoes warn of rising tides of blood, Yet still they turn, indifferent to the flood. [Chorus] Bubble gum politics, sticky and sweet, Clinging to lies on their polished elite, Stuck to the soles of their power-drunk feet, Chewed up and spat out, our fate incomplete, Bubble gum empire, crumbling defeat. [guitar solo] [Bridge] In the midnight hour, the veil starts to tear, Illusions shatter, exposing the snare, No more illusions, no mercy to spare, The crowd awakens, a thunderous glare, Revolution's breath hangs heavy in air. [Verse 4] Bureaucrats in towers, blind and aloof, Spin webs of deceit, unyielding proof, Wars waged for greed, not for the common good, Bodies pile high in misunderstood, We point the fingers, met with falsehood. [Chorus] Bubble gum politics, sticky and sweet, Clinging to lies on their polished elite, Stuck to the soles of their power-drunk feet, Chewed up and spat out, our fate incomplete, Bubble gum empire, crumbling defeat. [Verse 5] Inflation devours the meager wage, Healthcare crumbles on a fractured stage, Borders bleed with chaos uncontrolled, Rights eroded, stories left untold, The people's will, forever undersold. [Chorus] Bubble gum politics, sticky and sweet, Clinging to lies on their polished elite, Stuck to the soles of their power-drunk feet, Chewed up and spat out, our fate incomplete, Bubble gum empire, crumbling defeat. [Verse 6] Rebellion stirs in hearts grown cold and dark, Sparks ignite where once was just a spark, They mock our rage with platitudes so thin, But history repeats, the end begins, When deaf ears shatter under truth's sharp pin. [Chorus] Bubble gum politics, sticky and sweet, Clinging to lies on their polished elite, Stuck to the soles of their power-drunk feet, Chewed up and spat out, our fate incomplete, Bubble gum empire, crumbling defeat. [Finale] The throne will topple, the mighty will kneel, Echoes of Versailles, the wounds never heal, We rise from the ashes, no longer concealed, Government's failure, forever revealed, Bubble gum remnants, eternally sealed.
