The Clown

You’ve got me running like no one else
You’ve got me tracing the seams
You’ve got me second guessing myself
Over everything
You’ve got me working for pennies now
I feel like I am your slave
My uncle’s always got hands out
Funding the home of the brave

So, don’t hand me no old cliches
This place is breaking down
Sammy’s gonna have his way
You left me here with the clown

It’s getting harder to make it now
This damn allegiance will bury me
They made the people a cash cow
They’re sitting under some money trees
They’ll lock us up for about anything
If someone’s making a profit
We’re spinning helpless right down the drain
Can’t see no way to stop it

So, don’t hand me no old cliches
This place is breaking down
Sammy’s gonna have his way
You left me here with the clown

Don’t get me wrong I’ve got love for the people for the people
I'm convinced that sammy and his friends are all evil
Red, purple, blue, green, they’re all on the same team
And they don’t give a shit about you

So, don’t hand me no old cliches
This place is breaking down
Sammy’s gonna have his way
You left me here with the
You left me here with the
You left me here with the clown
