Another song...opinions...

[mjr]

I'm mostly a country singer/songwriter, but I think this would sound good as a metal song. It has kind of a Metallica feel to it. I'd like some opinions...

"I'm Not Gonna Be Your Sycophant"
Lyrics and music by Monte Richardson
© 2006 Monte Richardson

You like when people do what you want
you like it when they do what you say (hey hey)
you like the pucker-ups and the suck-ups
it strokes your ego to see it this way

But it ain't as good as you think
your attitude will be defeated
(and) it will come crashing down around you
what's coming is inevitable.

(chorus)
I'm Not gonna be your sycophant
a lemming in your game, your sick game.
Not gonna bow down to inflate your ego
or to raise you up and feed your arrogance.

Your "yes men" they surround you
they bow to your every whim
you use your power to walk on others
and to build your monolith.

(to chorus)

You see me as a pawn in your game
to make you money, footprints on my body
it ain't gonna happen, man, you won't be on my back
you can't change the way it is, that's just a fact

(to chorus)

Fragile ego destroyed, you soon will fall
You cannot believe, your ears do not deceive
You're no longer powerful, I have won
You did this to yourself.

(chorus x 2)

No, ain't gonna be your Sycophant
No, ain't gonna be your Sycophant
No, ain't gonna be your Sycophant
No, ain't gonna be your Sycophant

Ha, ha, ha, ha.

Hey I need a Sycophant !

Cool lyrics man - I'm "singing" them cookie monster style in my head with Zaak Wilde riffs blaring in the background. Metal - Hell Yeah (oops that's country)
