the Leader
Hunter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When there’s no place... to run away from...
The dark of night, the twilight’s brightness!
Fed up with seeing so much blood... on television...
You shouldn’t be here anymore...
Come on! In a while it will BEGIN!

To dance with the Liter!
Supporting the Liter!
Start choosing the Leader!
Intoxicating the Liter!
Celebrating the Liter!
Start loving the Leader!
Start killing the Leader!

I’m not that good... but I suppose I could be...
I’m not that bad... a joke in bad taste!
Fed up with hearing scarlet words... on television...
I shouldn’t be here anymore...
'Cause in a moment will BEGIN!

Liberating the Leader!
Start choosing the Leader!
Start blessing the Leader!
We’ll bury the Leader!
Liberating the Liter!
Getting down with the Liter!
Start blessing the Liter!
We’ll bury the Liter!

NO FUTURE!
Start choosing the Leader! Start crushing the Liter!
NO FUTURE!
Go bury the Leader! Dying dogs for the Liter!
NO FUTURE!
Start loving the Leader! Start killing the Leader!
NO FUTURE! NO FUTURE!!!

To dance with the Liter!
Supporting the Leader!
Start choosing the Liter!
Intoxicating the Leader!
Celebrating the Liter!
Start loving the Liter!
Start killing the Liter!

Liberating the Leader!
Start choosing the Leader!
Start blessing the Leader!
We’ll bury the Leader!
Start choosing the Leader!
Start crushing the Leader!
Go bury the Leader!
Dying dogs for the Leader!
Liberating the Liter!
Start choosing the Leader!
Start blessing the Liter!




We’ll bury the Leader!
Fascinating! Celebrating!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Hunter's song "The Leader" are highly provocative and seem to have political undertones. The song speaks to an audience that is disenchanted with the state of the world, saying that they are fed up with seeing so much blood on television and hearing scarlet words. The song then calls upon the listeners to join in a revelry with the "Liter," which could be interpreted as a movement or ideology. The lyrics suggest that the Liter is something that must be celebrated and that the Leader must be chosen, blessed, and eventually buried. The song also has a refrain that repeats "NO FUTURE," which could be interpreted as a nihilistic attitude toward the current state of society.


Overall, the lyrics to "The Leader" seem to suggest that the current state of affairs is dire and that radical action is needed. The call to celebrate and intoxicate oneself with the Liter suggests that the movement is something that will bring joy and meaning to people's lives. However, the call to bury the Leader and the repeated refrain of "NO FUTURE" suggest that this movement may be ultimately futile or even destructive.
