Nana Europa

It was a lonely winter
I heard you lost a friend
To the allure of a strongman
And the promised happy end

What happens to the secrets
You told a friend who understands?
What happens when they fall
Into the wrong hands?

My Nana told my Daddy
There'd be days like these
Hush now, Nana Europa
You're going to scare the kids

It was a lonely winter
I heard you lost your job
They tested rockets bound for Mars someday
As you were queuing for the dole

Toe worn through the shoe again
And peeling at the sole
You got them cheap on Amazon
To support their CEO

My Nana told my Daddy
There'd be days like these
Hush now, Nana Europa
You're going to scare the kids

It was a lonely winter
I heard you lost yourself
To that old seductive darkness
That waits in most of us

You hacked an iso haircut
You stacked the iso weight
You saw the strongman falter
And baked yourself an iso cake
