Turn it up ringmaster your final lullaby
Let's see how your genius is fully realised
The emperor standing naked how much longer can he fake it
All night repeat it ten times we've, we've got it
I know what is expected here
I'm not a child and i won't be blindsided
I know what is expected here
You're the one detatched from daily existence
I don't like your foolish suits folk hero schtick
Bad romance take the sky, touch the people, feed the ego
look me in the eyes despite your bullshit
Darling of every muse or fare-weathered friend
Prance around ampitheatres in your swelled head
Smoke clears and mirrors shatter
A bargain Broadway, a mock manhattan
Pack it in
Please pack it in
I've got it
I know what is expected here
I'm not a child and i won't be blindsided
I know what is expected here
You're the one detatched from daily existence
I don't like your foolish suits, folk hero schtick
Bad romance take the sky, touch the people, feed the ego
look me in the eyes despite your bullshit
How many of them can you string along
How many of bring to us
(would it kill you to lose attention)
How many of them can you string along
How long before they all wisen up
(would it kill you to lose attention)
How many of them can you string along
How many of bring to us
(would it kill you to lose attention)
