Circus

Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
Elect a clown, expect a circus You try to look away but... can't avert it Like stumbling on an accident or the scene of a crime But the spectacle's on your dime and unfolding in real time So come one come all, it's a monster's ball Guess what? The laugh's on us all, y'all And its way too late to say Nyet You've got Putin calling the shots with Oligarchs in yachts Preying off the rot Cranking out toxic bots Watch the clown car cabinet rolling down the avenue It's a motley crew, some are dancing with the stars Some are behind bars and let's hope the rest aren't far the Most are at the trough at the gold plated tower And one's in Moscow getting a golden shower Whether you like it or not doesn't much matter The electoral college will throw your vote under water So grab some popcorn or some fantonyl And come one come all, To the monster's ball The rearguard revolution will be televised and tweeted It's a circle jerk in a circular firing squad And the collateral damage is spreading far and wide It hits the huddled masses, the poor, the working classes Cause it's a government of fat cats, plutocrats and other asses (Fast) The strongman's a strawman grasping at straws and pussy A carnival barker on the take taking orders from the enemy (Fast) Ladies and gents come one come all We're in a free fall... It's just a monster's ball Now we're on the trapeze without a net You've got Putin calling the shots with oligarchs in yachts Preying off the rot And cranking out toxic bot Remember in this circus there is no safety net You fall through the cracks you break your neck You hope the risks are somehow remote Then you remember whose got the nuclear codes We're all circus animals now... Especially if you happen to be black or brown If You come from a Muslim land The circus elephant looks on idle and mute Ready to scoop the circus master's puke It's like when you flush the toilet And the waste keeps rising The joker's cackling at the moon while the tide keeps climbing Not to worry, climate change is a hoax At least that's the official joke told by lobbyist folks Running the Environmental Pollution Agency Where science, like the air we breathe, has gone a bit hazy Come one come all, Its just a monster's ball The rot it seeps into your pores Until you can't shake the stench The toilet's funk spilling over your feet And your jaws just clench You're feeling overwhelmed, tangled up in blue So what to do? What can you do? To soldier through, sometimes ya gotta scrape the shit right off your shoes Scrape the shit off your shoes Don't succumb to the show and clown Vote the circus right out of of town Get in it, to win it, so even the Selectoral College can't rig it
