about

It's pretty obvious what inspired these lyrics.
We felt pretty sick and tired of the whole world, especially it's leaders. We kind of thought that they might as well have clowns running the show (perhaps they already are?)

lyrics

Blind the reader, be the leader, buy a seat up high
Lead the mule with social fuel, stand by!
Up the rent on discontent just tweet it and it's true
Train the herd then lock them out of view

Chaos in the realm
Jokers at the helm
Nowhere left to turn
Just burn

Fake news to ensure the hard view is obscured
Race for the cure so big top can endure
Indoctrination lure to the barnum overture
never rest assured

Had enough of hearts and crowns
of ups and downs
Round and round
So send in the clowns

Land left melting at our feet but in the end who cares?
War is tearing up the street, just share
Panic-stricken crowds have been infected to the core
Mask your face, prepare yourself for war

Chaos in the realm
Jokers at the helm
Nowhere left to turn
Just burn

Fake news to ensure the hard view is obscured
Race for the cure so big top can endure
Indoctrination lure to the barnum overture
never rest assured

Had enough of hearts and crowns
of ups and downs
Round and round
So send in the clowns

Had enough of hearts and crowns
of ups and downs
Round and round
So send in the clowns
