(Verse 1)

Silence settles on the concrete sea,

Another terror, shadows of fear

The birds don't sing, the wind stops

Under her gaze on the hill

She sips her tea, a white china

Another decree in the morning light

A whispered joke, a side glance

Could seal her fate, a lost chance

(Pre-chorus)

She moves like smoke, velvet gloves

But underneath is an iron love

For absolute control, you see

This is her kingdom, wild and free

(At least in her own mind)

Leaving the hopefuls far behind

(Chorus)

Female dictator, oh-oh-oh

While running the show, watch the people

Living in the shadows, slowly tiptoeing

Female dictator, oh-oh-oh

Pretty face, stone heart

At her cold command, we are alone

(Verse 2)

The posters they smile, painted grace

But fear is etched on every face

A dropped bouquet, a clumsy word

A decade lost, unheard, blurred

Stories fade, memories fade

From loud laughter, from a joyful whim

Now there's an eye on every corner

Watching for the slightest lie

(Pre-Chorus)

Moves like smoke, velvet gloves

But underneath is an iron love

For absolute control, you see

This is her kingdom, wild and free

(At least in her own mind)

Leaving the hopefuls far behind

(Chorus)

Female dictator, oh-oh-oh

While running the show, watch the people

Living in the shadows, slowly tiptoeing

Female dictator, oh-oh-oh

Pretty face, stone heart

At her cold command we are alone

(Bridge)

Maybe someday the sun will shine

Through the clouds the for god's sake

Maybe one day another song

It echoes where we don't belong

But for now the rhythm is tight

Under her endless night

(chorus)

Female dictator, oh-oh-oh

While running the show, watch the people

Living in the shadows, slowly on tiptoe

Female dictator, oh-oh-oh

Pretty face, stone heart

At her cold command we are alone

(Outro)

O-oh-oh... alone, alone

Under her throne...

Female dictator... o-oh-oh...

The silence goes on and on...
