The Political Circus

See that you've found the circus We're so glad that you got the invite Entertainment that is certainly worth it As it's all being televised Whether or not Republican or Democrat Go ahead and stand in line It's moving along rather quickly The clowns are waiting inside In the center there's the Ringmaster Keeping his face hidden from view Just pretend he's not even here As it really doesn't concern any of you Enjoy a 20 dollar cotton candy Washing it down with a 16 ounce Tasty Freeze Remember all are eligible to vote now As we no longer require an I.D. Might want to keep an eye on the lions As they all bite the hand that feeds Right before they go back into hiding Until there's something else that they need Hope you don't mind if we turn down the lights There are things you don't need to see We know what's best for you anyways So there's really no need for you to worry Here at the greatest show on earth Filled with rumors, innuendos, and lies If the truth here is ever heard You would never believe your own eyes So bring your family out to the circus With open arms we welcome you all Of course we keep our hands behind our backs Hiding that which you really don't need to know...
