about

Extremely ridiculous song.

lyrics

I'm the new Entertainment Commander-in-Chief
My phone's blowing up, there's no relief
I'm friends with the mayor and friends with his mom
When I'm around, no one can stay calm

Receding hairline and scraggly beard
I'm on top of the world, does this seem weird?
While Congress debates if aliens exist
They're hanging out at my house 'cause they think I'm the shit

I've already got the key to the city
Now I want the key to the universe
Should spend more time writing ditties
Without so many syllables in each verse

There's a statue of me at city hall
And a ten foot mural of me on the wall
I'm an economic engine beyond belief
Got too much to do, so the song will be brief

I've conquered the world and done my part
Now they've come from other worlds to hear my art
I'd like to take a day off to get some rest
But these crazy gray dudes want me to be their guest

I've already got the key to the city
Now I want the key to the universe
I ain't got time to look pretty.
Gotta get this huge crowd of fans to disperse

I've already got the key to the city
Now I want the key to the universe
I ain't got time to look pretty.
Won't be long before I'm in the back of a hearse

I've already got the key to the city
Now I need the key to the universe
When everything's looking pretty shitty
Hang out with me and it won't get worse
