lyrics

SIDESHOW ATTRACTION

You’ve got to rise above it
Got to get around it
Work hard, work long or just forget it
It takes a whole lot of luck if your one that won’t suck
and if your the man, Ok
As if I give a fuck
I’m sorry I guess you know
So many hard yards stretchmarks now show
I’m not being bitter
I blame it on my ticker
I love what I do but the wall gets thicker
I’m ready to go
There’s danger I might blow
All this tension inside is ready to explode
Here comes the next wave of fashion
Whatever happened to the passion?
Music is fast becoming a fucking sideshow attraction
Who’s fucking who in this incestuous zoo
When to get to the top you have to suck the right cock
I booked some time with the doc
Cause this morning my heart it stopped
He said i needed to rest and to stop
But he got it going with a simple electric shock
Of promises broken and a door that won’t lock
Don’t believe what they’re telling you
When you can’t tell what is lies or truth
They’ll make you feel like they want you to
And take all that’s there for themselves
So here comes the next wave of fashion
Music is a sideshow attraction
It’s not about creation anymore
It’s the money you make and how much you will conform.
