letra de carousel - tommy brown

this crazy world we live in
pivoting
a lot of taking

and not a lot of giving
a lot of faking
living up to the villains
imitating, bluffing
something’s got me feeling
some kinda way
trying to say
carousel dreaming
nightmare cold, ice age
i say, i say i said it
it’s the merry-go-round
round and round
let’s get it
it’s a gift to see the present
situation now
is peace in heaven?
faces impatient, frowns in the crowds
and how’s this blatant arrangement gone down?
sad clowns
and blood spilled in the streets of a town
police keep beating on brown-skinned people
white ain’t right and black is beautiful
racism evil
these are givens
but humanity don’t listen
lived experience is different
reality of immigrants
blamed for society ills
when they’re innocent civilians
our tax funds war and k!lls
front page rags pour vitriolic acid
down the throats of the vapid public
the white noise has got too loud
the subjects avoid eye contact
looking at the ground
forming their syntax
disorderly conduct
in physical constructs
you’re more than you’ve found
spiritual responses, such and such
the touch of god
you make me proud
love in war
the cost of slaughter
new world order
stay indoors
rule by force
on boards are the p-wns
enforcing the borders
isn’t a doubt
forcing people out
the vision we shout
difference the distance
division is out

i’m tense, i can’t cause offence
it’s a playground funfair
roller coasters and big top tents
cl!ck bait top ten, like this now
self-improvement, humans
conclusions: foul
nuisance politics solemn follow through
with the promises coming out their mouth
running up their mouth
sh-t’s gone south
sh-t’s gone south

the harder they fall the bigger they are
the answer to rule and trigger a war
our fathers were quick off the mark
and we fools
debacles, disasters
the rascals indoors

deep state intelligence
embellishments to make us think
we’re benefiting from the television
sitting inside again
listening to evidence, we rise up
then we might descend
offended by censored opinion
the millions of minions have woken up and risen
that’s the vision
but i won’t pretend
that we ever listen
busy in the city
sitting, fidget, feeling pity
sit and fidget, sit and fidget
sit and fidget feeling pity
it’s gritty in the prison
similes are ridding me of synchronicity
ego rules the rules ignored
endorsing more fragility
the wisdom depicting incisions
the victim reluctant
the system instructed
to finish decisions
to limit fruition
disruptive petitions
a minute of wishes
nuisance politics solemn follow through
with the promises coming out their mouth
running up their mouth
sh-t’s gone south

ladies and gentlemen
boys and girls
welcome to the carousouls
we’ll take you on a tour of extreme musical proportions
so, sit back, relax
and give a very warm welcome
to all of tonight’s performers
