[Verse]
Promises stack like cards on a table
They fold when the wind gets unstable
Talk so cheap it's practically free
Who’s paying the bill it ain’t you it’s me
[Chorus]
Paper crown clowns in a circus town
They juggle lies and let us drown
Every vote's a sinking ship
We’re the ones who feel the rip
[Verse 2]
They hold parades for their own reflection
While potholes swallow our direction
Fix the road no fix the game
Different faces but the scam’s the same
[Prechorus]
They smile wide with empty hands
But all their words are sinking sand
[Chorus]
Paper crown clowns in a circus town
They juggle lies and let us drown
Every vote's a sinking ship
We’re the ones who feel the rip
[Bridge]
Red tie blue tie what's the difference now
They all just dance to the same cash cow
We scream for change but the echoes fade
And the check for hope is never paid
