Clowns commanding crowds
Used to juggling with toys in the missiles
Your delusion kinda meant that its a sacrifice
So you're going to push the button on another life
Freedom fighters were selling liars
I warn you if you undermine us we'll start the fires
'Cause our friends are being wasted on the front lines
And now you're just polluting all the headlines
Smoke covers the sky
Ring of fire in your eyes
This is a circus
Will somebody help us
It's too late for the hopeless
Oh we're not laughing now
This is a circus
You step on the broken
And you take what you owe us
We're not laughing
We're on a tightrope
Can't cope
We cut off from the harness and we let go
Straight into a lifeboat that don't float
Sip coke
If I choke you will leave me lying here for the white coats
Irrelevant in your element ignoring the elephant that's in the room 'cause you're shelling them
Putting hell in them after telling them
That they've got it much better than a baby born in Bethlehem
Supermassive lies
Triple mega forty-five
This is a circus
Will somebody help us
It's too late for the hopeless
Oh we're not laughing now
This is a circus
You step on the broken
And you take what you owe us
We're not laughing
Done the ringleader
The lion tamer
Eradicate the wild
Syndicate behind closed doors
The ones we bought
Make your own folklore
It seems you can do anything you like
This is a circus
Will somebody help us
It's too late for the hopeless
Oh we're not laughing now
This is a circus
You step on the broken
And you take what you owe us
We're not laughing
We are not your animals
You'll keep doing what you want
Can you hear the rebels loud
Voices can be tainted now
We are not your animals
You'll keep doing what you want
Can you hear the rebels loud
Voices can be tainted now
