I'm a very fine person 
I'm very civic minded
I was standing up for what I believed
And now you hope you can earn a reprieve

I didn't mean it when I 
Said those awful things 
It was my way of working up to the top
And you didn't know when stop 

I was offended
I was mortally cowed
I never thought things could become so absurd
So you refused to take the man at his word? 

I saw the writing 
It was subtle but clear
I moved with boldness when I mastered the code
And you expect us to believe such a load? 

Now I'm gone
I'm done working for the man
I had a bad feeling it was all wrong, so I stepped aside
And now I'm doing what I can
I got my feelers out 
I got the brand on overload

There were some very fine people 
On both sides of the issue
Believe me when I tell you it's true 
Will you believe us when we tell you you're through? 

I'm just a shepherd 
I was blind but I see
You have to know I'm taking one for the team 
Is that your twisted American dream? 

I heard the rallies 
I read all of the tweets
But it was always just part of the game
And now you'll ride your revelation to fame? 

I've got a mission 
I've assembled a PAC
I'm doing all that I can to atone 
But you'll still jump when he throws you a bone!

Oh no, I'm gone
I'm done working for the man
I had a bad feeling it was corrupt, so I stepped aside
And now I'm doing what I can
I got my feelers out 
I got the brand on overload
