Todd Phipps - Grifters On Parade

You're on every TV
Adorn every screen
From barbershop walls
To army canteens
It's hard to escape your paternalistic gaze
Your followers - just like moths to the flame

We know that you're lying
Day after day
You know it too, yet
You keep doin' it anyway
The ratings are too good, the cash keeps flowing like
The deathless procession

Of grifters on parade

Grifters on parade

Breathtaking hubris
Endless stream of lies
Behind a "respectable" facade
Of suits and bowties
You're "just asking questions"
Ya look puzzled like a dog
But all you're generating is obfuscatory fog

Fear of the other
Fear of ourselves
It's all part and parcel of
The bullshit you sell
You demonize anyone who isn't like you
And your deathless procession

Of grifters on parade
Grifters on parade
