Delicious Lyrics
[Verse 1]
How inconvenient and unexpected and harrowing for you
As consequences tend to be
For the rest of us
So delicious to witness your dread
Poetic justice consummate
[Chorus 1]
Not unlike you to heedlessly hoist away your smug grenade
Arrogant and insolent
You don't give a damn
Collateral be damned
Not unlike you to hoist away
Hoist away
Your smug grenade [?]
Choice and bed be made
Good night
Sleep tight
[Verse 2]
So delicious for the rest of us
To witness your dread
Poetic justice consummate
[Pre-Chorus]
Not unlike you to heedlessly hoist my own [?] petard
Wrong side of history
You don't give a damn
Collateral be damned
[Chorus 2]
Not unlike you to hoist away
Hoist away your smug grenade
Choice and bed be made
Good night
Sleep tight
How inconvenient and unexpected and harrowing for you
As consequences tend to be
For the rest of us
So delicious to witness your dread
Poetic justice consummate
Not unlike you to heedlessly hoist away your smug grenade
Arrogant and insolent
You don't give a damn
Collateral be damned
Hoist away
Your smug grenade [?]
Choice and bed be made
Good night
Sleep tight
So delicious for the rest of us
To witness your dread
Poetic justice consummate
Not unlike you to heedlessly hoist my own [?] petard
Wrong side of history
You don't give a damn
Collateral be damned
Not unlike you to hoist away
Hoist away your smug grenade
Choice and bed be made
Good night
Sleep tight

This seems to me to be addressing the Republicans in power and their ultimately doomed fight against progress.
"Wedding just as consumate" should be "Poetic justic consummate"
Idk, if this is particularly addressing one political faction because it lacks any real references. To me it seems to be referring to karmaic justice within political factions. For example those who advocate for hate speech laws, they think they're just and "on the right side of history" right up until their own hate speech laws land them in jail alongside the opponents they seeked to destroy.

@BAC21 it's clearly addresing a particular side. "Wrong side of history" couldn't be any clearer if they mentioned Lincoln.

I picture Hillary Clinton when I hear this one.
