Everyone gasped as the power came back on
And lit up a ghastly scene
The gracious host of the fundraiser
Slumped forward
Face down on the table
What was meant to slice slabs of meat
Had turned him to main course
No appetites now
Just panic and screams
Who could have done such a thing
To someone so valued by so many
He was inclusive
Yeah, that was his image at least
Sexist and racist and hypocritical
Never living up to his own ideals
Still admired around the world
For being the supposed face of goodwill
Things got heated
Accusations flying
Was it the businessman
Who felt the host was holding him back
Everyone thinking they knew the answer
But then the power went out again
Well, I guess that settles that

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Last wills and living trusts
Everybody here has a motive plus
There’s a knife in the back of the prime suspect
Knife in the back of the
Prime suspect
Knife in the, yeah
We’ll see who’s standing when the lights cut next


Now it’s a frequent occurrence
The businessman goes
Next is the journalist
No one trusted her
Now they all dropping like flies
The politician with his fraudulent lies
He had lots to gain, votes to suppress
When the lights came back on
He had been choked to death
Next was the vapid star
Always influencing
Pandering to what social movement’s trending
And what about workers on the premises
Maybe they were the nemesis
Nah, they were expendable
Dying like everyone else
Soon everyone dead like bread presidents
All the cooperation to carry out the initial plan
These were no diplomats
Everyone had they own agendas
Which tended to clash
Whodunnit, yo everyone did
The gas leak met its match

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Last wills and living trusts
Everybody here has a motive plus
There’s a knife in the back of the prime suspect
Knife in the back of the
Prime suspect
Knife in the, yeah
We’ll see who’s standing when the lights cut next
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Last wills and living trusts
Everybody here has a motive plus
There’s a knife in the back of the prime suspect
Knife in the back of the
Prime suspect
Knife in the, yeah
We’ll see who’s standing when the lights cut next
