Murdoch's Napoleon Complex
(Another power hungry old man)

Has Rupert been targeting cities near you
Where he'll control what you're able to see?
He's not content to restrict what you read.
He wants to be able to do it tax free.

He's one step away from controlling the Congress
And his billionaire friends will soon take care of that.
So don't be surprised when he screws Cablevision.
Does the old guy need money? He's not passing the hat.

It's with fiendish delight that he sticks it to Dolan
So that what used to be "Optimum" no longer is.
You think it bugs Rupert that Dolan makes billions
As much as knowng the cable's not his?

Of course it's the power to which Murdoch's addicted,
But does he have heirs as addicted as he?
We saw the disaster when H.W. Bush's
Court passed the baton to his most senior Bushie.

Since his years as a cheerleader weren't helpful at all,
And his secondhand genes make it harder to cope
Resulting in a most unsuccessful succession,
Murdoch family disputes may be our only hope.
