This crazy world we live in Pivoting A lot of taking And not a lot of giving A lot of faking Living up to the villains Imitating, bluffing Something's got me feeling Some kinda way Trying to say Carousel dreaming Nightmare cold, ice age I say, I say I said it It's the merry-go-round Round and round Let's get it It's a gift to see the present Situation now Is peace in heaven? Faces impatient, frowns in the crowds And how's this blatant arrangement gone down? Sad clowns And blood spilled in the streets of a town Police keep beating on brown-skinned people White ain't right and black is beautiful Racism evil These are givens But humanity don't listen Lived experience is different Reality of immigrants Blamed for society ills When they're innocent civilians Our tax funds war and kills Front page rags pour vitriolic acid Down the throats of the vapid public The white noise has got too loud The subjects avoid eye contact Looking at the ground Forming their syntax Disorderly conduct In physical constructs You're more than you've found Spiritual responses, such and such The touch of god You make me proud Love in war The cost of slaughter New world order Stay indoors Rule by force On boards are the pawns Enforcing the borders Isn't a doubt Forcing people out The vision we shout Difference the distance Division is out I'm tense, I can't cause offence It's a playground funfair Roller coasters and big top tents Click bait top ten, like this now Self-improvement, humans Conclusions: foul Nuisance politics solemn follow through With the promises coming out their mouth Running up their mouth Shit's gone south Shit's gone south The harder they fall the bigger they are The answer to rule and trigger a war Our fathers were quick off the mark And we fools Debacles, disasters The rascals indoors Deep state intelligence Embellishments to make us think We're benefiting from the television Sitting inside again Listening to evidence, we rise up Then we might descend Offended by censored opinion The millions of minions have woken up and risen That's the vision But I won't pretend That we ever listen Busy in the city Sitting, fidget, feeling pity Sit and fidget, sit and fidget Sit and fidget feeling pity It's gritty in the prison Similes are ridding me of synchronicity Ego rules the rules ignored Endorsing more fragility The wisdom depicting incisions The victim reluctant The system instructed To finish decisions To limit fruition Disruptive petitions A minute of wishes Nuisance politics solemn follow through With the promises coming out their mouth Running up their mouth Shit's gone south Ladies and gentlemen Boys and girls Welcome to the CAROUSOULS We'll take you on a tour of extreme musical proportions So, sit back, relax And give a very warm welcome To all of tonight's performers
