A Buffoon Behind A Microphone

from Allegorical Ballads by I Run for President

/

lyrics

The excitement of the stage,
The light that sheds its rays,
The nice words you say
Are not more true but as false as mine, in this way you share my case.

We seek hoorays,
You have more than i'll ever get,
We hear your praise
And me I take the smiles I'm given and at least I've got a music to play.

And I hope you know better than I do,
That you can justify the kindness law has for you.

And maybe I never refuse a drink
And notes are my money,
And maybe you'll find that the rape you committed was made public.

You reached the top
And never fear any slope
But don't list my faults, 'cause I could as well give you my jiggling hat 'cause you're not without reproach.

And I hope you know better than I do,
That you can justify the kindness law has for you.
