Blank look, about-face

Blank look, about-face

Blank look, about-face

Confidante

Here goes a breach

Of a piss-weak pact

Upright, on-point

Staunch subordinate

Blank look, about-face

Blank look, about-face

Blank look, about-face

Sycophant

Trade plaudits neat

And matter-of-fact

Flatter in a charismatic haze

Blank look, about-face

Blank look, about-face

Blank look, about-face

Elective confidante

Adopted sycophant

Elective confidante

Adopted sycophant

Poised to sweep the cynics away

Blank look, about-face

Clear the ground!

Clear the ground for a drunken

Power melee

Clear the ground for a drunken

Power melee

The mob is phased

Clear the ground for a weakening

Sting in the tail

Clear the ground for a weakening

Sting in the tail

The mob drinks in praise

The mob's wit wanes

The mob deflates

The mob's displaced

The mob's contained
