the circus***
"A lie don't care who tell it"
if a suckers buying, it's there to sell it
with no refund and no exchange
can't be returned from whence it came
it will spew venom whisper,screams and shouts
doesn't matter that it don't know what the hell its talking bout
if a lie is good and juicy then its gotta be true ..right?
cause that makes for better gossip than the truth..right?
and if it ain't big and fat enough
somebody will definitely swell it up
add their lil 2cents, and embellish it
make it funky enough everybody can smell it
cause a lie don't care who tell it
and you wanna feel important,so you gotta be the one who tell it
it was a sniff test my friend
and you most definitely failed it
but this ain't the first time somebody has lied on me
or look me in the eye and told a bold face lie to me
so when the circus comes to town
i just sit back and watch the clowns
and laugh at their fake placated smiles
o how they reek, like putrid bile
much like the friend you pretend to be
then secretly, backstabbing me
i watched your flips and acrobats
smiled at the tricks you pull out your hat
little do you know your walking a tightrope
my entertainment, with little hope
with no safety net of friendships protection
because it has built in bullsh*t detection
SMH cause you look like a buffoon
putting on a show like red ass baboon
But i'm the RINGMASTER :) and child you need to stop
please believe I know bout everything that goes on under the big top
