about

Elon Musk sucks. Let's call him by his functional name: Apartheid Clyde.

lyrics

I don't like Elon Musk
I think he's an arrogant prick
And his world views are pretty insular
And he sounds real dumb giving interviews
But people think he's genius
Just 'cause he waits 5 seconds before he speaks
Like his words come from a high mountain peak
He doesn't acknowledge his privilege
That he had a leg-up in apartheid Africa
It's like he cherry-picked history
To his own benefit
And it sickens me
But he'll never smile without the weight of the world
Staring right through him
And all of his lies, and all of his lies
Bearing down on him

He's so myopic and insulated
I've got 300 billion reasons why
The system's outdated
We need a revolution
He's not an engineer or an inventor
Or a scientist
You wanna talk genius?
How about a socialist like Albert Einstein
Who lived on an academic wage all his lifetime
People flock to power and wealth
People got the rose-tinted glasses
They got us fighting a culture war
But it's always been classic struggling classes
People get beat over the head
By the same men they adulate
The way they did for Hitler
The way they did for Reagan
We shouldn't look for leaders
We should just look for good ideas
I don't like globalization for the ruling class
I want globalization for the people
There is no chance of reforming this
We need a revolution
