You strapped on the blinders, set fire behind us

We bit as you sold us, did what you told us

Our strategy is right where you hid your nightmare

Now tail bites the dog

So maybe we'll just start a crisis

And maybe we should call our friends

Ensure no fiendish force divides us

Then tell the telephoto lens, "Tail, bite the dog"

And when you finally leave us, you best believe us

We'll want an airport greeting, a high-level meeting

Show the folks back home we're holdin' our own

And yeah, tail bites the dog

So maybe we should start a crisis

And maybe we should call our friends

And once you turn off your devices

Scream from our kitchens to your dens, "Tail, bite the dog"
