Red Giant

I play the clown for you

Entertaining, absurd hue

As I watch them laugh, I'd love to

See them clap and dance to my tune

Blowing up like a red giant

Expansive, a star

And I'm coming to burn this down

And laugh my ass off

All my children sing it again and again

'Cause a lie ain't a lie if you're winnin' 'em over

Amen

I act on stage up here

Toying with your own fears

Misdirection I'm so near

Simple sleight of hand, in the clear

Blowing up like a red giant

Expansive, a star

And I'm coming to burn this down

And laugh my ass off

All my children sing it again and again

'Cause a lie ain't a lie if you're winnin' 'em over

Amen

Too late now, show's over

Real life is much closer

Take the make up off, you wonder

Why I look the same, only bolder

Blowing up like a red giant

Expansive, a star

And I'm coming to burn this down

And laugh my ass off

All my children, sing it again and again

'Cause a lie ain't a lie if you're winnin' 'em over

Amen
