The Public Figure
On him the public wears a tight lens
every step is aligned to stay correct
collective respects are heavily densed
from any little flaw he’ll resurrect
every action is an open door
to criticize, applaud or damage
to gain approval, the people want more
heavy on the shoulders is this image
will attract insects wanting to creep
defense coming from a smart bender
every trouble has its own unique beep
perfect cover-up can be a lender
sustenance starts from the private house
the people see and flirt at the clean blouse.
