Clown World Lyrics

You worried 'bout leaving a better planet for our kids
How 'bout leaving better kids for our planet
Entire generation offended at everything
Getting mad that a human thinks all lives matter
We don't need black or white or left or right
What we need is common sense, we need balance
We're all in the same boat, why you tryna make holes?
If they sink, we sink, this is madness

I'm offended that you're offended by me taking offense
Trump can't build a wall, why does your house have a fence?
I believe in two genders, I'm not mad at the rest
I'm just confused when a dude has a beard and some breasts

We won't always agree, no
I don't hate all police, no
I don't think that the system's racist
I just think the system hates people
I think fighting violence with more violence is what they want
Viruses and riots, people dying, we won't stay home
Black lives matter, all lives matter, what's all this division for?
It's modern segregation, this is setting up a civil war

Burn the circus down 'cause the world is full of clowns
They're all stupid and they're proud, making smiles on they mouths
I don't hang with Bozos, homie, I can't be around you
Anyone who knows me, knows my feet don't fit in clown shoes

When I was a child, the only races that we hated
Were the ones that we ran and didn't win
Then we stopped playing with each other, started hating on each other
Started noticing the color of our skin
Christians and atheists, immigrants, patriots
We love the country but we are not saving it
Wages don't raise through the rate of inflation
And half of the country hates all of the nation, it's

Funny that we think the world owes us something
All the phones got smart but the people so dumb
We care more about the likes and our selfies than our moms
And the only time we ever speak the truth's when we're drunk

We won't always agree, no
I don't hate all police, no
Your thoughts and opinions ain't facts
And they are not defining my reality, no

I think picking sides divides, it's probably what has got us here
United States is great regardless, that's what we forgot in here
Black lives matter, all lives matter, what's all this division for
It's modern segregation, this is setting up a civil war

Burn this circus down 'cause the world is full of clowns
They're all stupid and they're proud, painted smiles on they mouths
I don't hang with bozos, homie, I can't be around you
Anyone who knows me knows my feet don't fit in clown shoes

They tell you, "Be yourself", and then they judge you on the internet
Till everybody hates you for it
If Jesus was alive, I swear to God that y'all would cancel him
'Cause lately being negative's the real new normal, yeah
If you're thick, you're fat, you're rich, you're bad
You're poor, you're black, you're white, you're whack, they lie, it's facts
My generation needs a bunch of free condoms
'Cause common sense ain't that common

This is what they wanted, this is how they planned it
This is to control everyone on the planet
Then we put each other in caskets, protest in panic
And they take advantage to manage the damage

We won't always agree, no
Freedom doesn't come free, no
There was people fighting, dying overseas
So that you could have freedom and be home

I think the elites are real but they ain't drinking babies' blood
They're creating chaos so they have something to save you from
Black lives matter, all lives matter, what's all this division for?
It's modern segregation, this is setting up a civil war

Burn this circus down 'cause the world is full of clowns
They're all stupid and they're proud, painted smiles on they mouths
I don't hang with bozos, homie, I can't be around you
Anyone who knows me knows my feet don't fit in clown shoes

What is the Meaning of Clown World?

In a world where the circus has become reality, Tom MacDonald uses his lyrical prowess to critique modern society's divisive tendencies and misplaced priorities. "Clown World" is a biting commentary on today's culture of offense, online judgment, and polarizing ideologies. MacDonald points out that we're all in the same boat and should focus on unity rather than division. He also criticizes our obsession with social media and materialism over genuine human connections. Ultimately, he warns that this societal circus is setting us up for conflict if we don't change our ways. With his feet firmly out of 'clown shoes', he reminds us of the need for balance, common sense, and respect for differing opinions. #UnityOverDivision #ModernCircus #SocialCritique #CommonSense
