About you, without you, my plans were made
I'm driving, conniving, well worth the wait
I simply can't afford to let you have your way
So I must learn to do without you
About you, without you, you stand accused
High treason, no reason, I'm quite amused
I came, I saw, I conquered everything in sight
I had to learn to do without you
Without you, without you, about you
About you, without you, the deal was done
What matters, in tatters, I'm moving on
Can't bare you (?) have a say in anything at all
I always had to do without you
Without you, without you, about you
Now I won't be ignored, I've come to the fore
I'm just making sure you're on my side
You're right to suggest, it's what I do best
And let your request, I'll give you
Instant pleasure, easy, easy
(The bigger the lie the easier to justify)
It will please me, please me
But on my terms, without you
About you, without you, I'll do my tricks
Achieving, deceiving, good politics
Because you didn't stop me while you had the chance
Now I can't keep on doing without you
Without you, without you, about you
Without you, without you, about you
