This is a free county, no one owns ya
So what you choose to do is on ya
When you kneel
It makes me feel
No elation or hate, just anhedonia

The Left, steeped in anhedonia, wants to bring the whole Nation down into the pit with them.

Mrs. Clinton displays anhedonia
Her true love, to rule and to own ya’
Her life has been crappy
She’s never been happy
If that ever changes, I’ll phone ya’

Not to nitpick, but wasn’t that Caldonia without the e? Nevertheless, a great feat of free association!

I believe it is spelled both ways and pronounced both ways depending on the singer and sometimes within the same rendition of the song.
