The Lyrics

#17 in the series. This one's based loosely on an encounter that Zaphod and Trillian have with the Ruler of the Universe in the second book. He's a very humble guy. Enjoy. Also, I struggled with the decisions/opinions couplet, so its still just a prototype. You can tell, can you...?
I tell you there’s chaos out there
There’s wars and lives and power to spare
But all of those who most want to rule
They’re all of them fools
Anyone who seeks his entry
Is no one who ever should be
Ruler of the Universe

You’ve seen the flaws of Bush and Obama
Now Mitt and Rick and Newt with their drama
But what if they’re just there to distract
From those in the back
Act-u-al-ly making decisions
Leading the cosmos, tryin’ to shape opinions
Rulers of the Universe

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah.
Ruler of the Universe

Now do you know the man in the shack,
who gives us all the wisdom to act?
He questions past and all that he sees
Mentally free
Fixin’ the world when he gets bored,
Tryin’ to feed his cat, ‘The Lord’, yeah
Ruler of the Universe

I like that this had a bit of American political flaire to a British novel about the politics of the entire Universe (Ironic don't you think)
