### I Need a Black Swan

*(To the tune of "I Need a Hero")*

**[Verse 1]**

Where have all the good plans gone, and where’s the sanity?

The suits are spinning fairy tales on every TV screen.

Isn’t there a wild card left, a twist to save the day?

Late at night, I toss and turn, and dream of anarchy!

**[Pre-Chorus]**

I need a shock, a jolt, a curveball in the fight,

Something to flip the script and set this mess alright!

**[Chorus]**

I need a black swan!

I’m holding out for a black swan ‘til the end of the night,

It’s gotta be wild, gotta be rare,

Gotta shake the world with a devil-may-care!

I need a black swan!

I’m holding out for a black swan ‘til we’re outta this plight,

It’s gotta be bold, gotta be strange,

Gotta break the system and force a change!

**[Verse 2]**

Out there in the headlines, the clowns are running free,

Promising the moon and stars, but taxing you and me.

There’s a fire in the circus tent, the crowd’s about to snap,

I’m praying for a chaos king to rip up this old map!

**[Pre-Chorus]**

I need a spark, a crash, a glitch to wake the sheep,

A tidal wave of crazy that the pundits can’t keep!

**[Chorus]**

I need a black swan!

I’m holding out for a black swan ‘til the end of the night,

It’s gotta be wild, gotta be rare,

Gotta shake the world with a devil-may-care!

I need a black swan!

I’m holding out for a black swan ‘til we’re outta this plight,

It’s gotta be bold, gotta be strange,

Gotta break the system and force a change!

**[Bridge]**

Oh, the polls are rigged, the promises fade,

The emperor’s got no clothes in this parade!

Send me a comet, a coup, or a flood,

Something to wash away all the mud!

**[Chorus]**

I need a black swan!

I’m holding out for a black swan ‘til the end of the night,

It’s gotta be wild, gotta be rare,

Gotta shake the world with a devil-may-care!

I need a black swan!

I’m holding out for a black swan ‘til we’re outta this plight,

It’s gotta be bold, gotta be strange,

Gotta break the system and force a change!

**[Outro]**

Oh, I need a black swan! (Black swan!)

A glorious wreck to rewrite this song!

Gimme chaos, gimme flair,

A wild-eyed savior from nowhere!

I need a black swan!
