Jokers in Charge
The greatest nations' leaders are the laughing stocks of doom, presumptuousness broke in the door as reason left the room
Now we find ourselves ensnared in the tragicomedy of our time where some ignorant poseurs dictate who's laughing and who's crying
People get what they deserve but if they're too comfortable to think, much sooner than we realize we will be on the brink
And as long as they get one "thumb up" for the dullest train of thought
They'll not concede nor understand what everything's about
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
Survival of the boldest in the race for senior posts and the media helps to built up those who overact the most
Make random allegations and generalized insults, don't follow rules of courtesy, forget that you're adult
Capacity and aptitude are unimportant traits where agitational lies address the people's fear and faith
And if platitudes of populists weight more than obvious facts, you can't deny an endemical demise of intellect
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
And how's everybody fine when the joke's on the ninety nine
How's everybody fine when the joke's on the ninety nine
How can everybody be okay, when every shred of decency decays
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
Now we find ourselves ensnared in the tragicomedy of our time where some ignorant poseurs dictate who's laughing and who's crying
People get what they deserve but if they're too comfortable to think, much sooner than we realize we will be on the brink
And as long as they get one "thumb up" for the dullest train of thought
They'll not concede nor understand what everything's about
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
Survival of the boldest in the race for senior posts and the media helps to built up those who overact the most
Make random allegations and generalized insults, don't follow rules of courtesy, forget that you're adult
Capacity and aptitude are unimportant traits where agitational lies address the people's fear and faith
And if platitudes of populists weight more than obvious facts, you can't deny an endemical demise of intellect
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
And how's everybody fine when the joke's on the ninety nine
How's everybody fine when the joke's on the ninety nine
How can everybody be okay, when every shred of decency decays
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
When the jesters take over control be prepared for the worst scenario
