Snake Oil

The circus hits town and it's a real shit show
A righteous mess to call our own
We're all dressed us down and there's nowhere to go
Our covers been blown it's Wack-A-Mole

Hook, line & sinker
Hook, line & sinker
Hook, line & sinker
Hook, line &...

The dog and pony's begun a winless race to be run
How many tricks can you squeeze while you're asleep?
It's a banquet of blues and a lifetime to rue
Before you know it you're stuffed and obsolete

Placebo for your faith
Snake oil for your pain
Common sense can wait
Anxious tapping veins

Wake me up when it's safe outside
and the air is clean enough to breathe
Times the furthest thing from on our side
Until it's gone it's wants instead of needs

Hook, line & sinker
Hook, line & sinker
Hook, line & sinker
Hook, line &...

The circus packs up it's time to go
Another town another show
If you suffer no fools then you're safe in the know
While the fools become more clowns in tow

Placebo for your faith
Snake oil for your pain
Common sense can wait
Anxious tapping veins
Placebo for your faith
Snake oil for your pain
Common sense can wait
Anxious tapping veins
Hook, line & sinker
