When Mubarak ruled in Egypt land
Hosni we’re glad you’re gone
His rule was with an iron hand
Egypt must move on
CHORUS
Fear and terror
Lived in Egyptian hearts
As the modern pharaoh
Maintained stability
Hosni was the perfect host
The CIA said so
For detainee renditions he did the most
And never once said no
CHORUS
Fear and terror
Lived in Egyptian hearts
As the modern pharaoh
Maintained stability
You and I, we paid the bills
A billion every year
Responsible for those he killed
And those who lived in fear
NEW CHORUS
Now Egyptians
Must control their destiny
And maybe, they’ll have
Accountability!
