Carnival of Trump
Step right up, the posters shout Loudest grin in the loudest crowd
We trade our sleep for a front-row view (ha)
Paper crowns and plastic gold
Promises bought and quickly sold
Fireworks in daylight, cheap perfume
I hear the barker call the tune
Hold your breath, the curtain shakes
One more bet is all it takes
Hands in the air,
they want a sign I bite my tongue and fall in line
Welcome to the Carnival of Trump
Where the drums hit hard and the prices jump
Spin that story till it comes undone
Laugh it off like we never run (oh-oh)
(oh-oh,
hey) (ha-ha)
Confetti rain on a shaky stage
Headlines caged in a gilded cage
Friends and foes in the same cheap seats
Clapping loud when the headline bleeds
No more tickets, no more grin
I see the wires,
the painted skin
If I shout, will it change the air?
Or just sell another souvenir?
Welcome to the Carnival of Trump Where the drums hit hard and
the prices jump
Spin that story till it comes undone
Laugh it off like we never run (oh-oh) (oh-oh)
