The Show Must Go On
And the credits won’t roll ‘til the world’s overdrawn, But don’t change the channel — the show must go on
[Verse 1]
Trump in the wings with the lights going black
Script in his fist, no plan to come back
The White House a set, the flag just a prop
Truth takes a bullet, the cameras don’t stop
He's never been real, but the danger is true
He’s gambling with lives for a headline or two
The audience cheers as the nation breaks down
He laughs at the fire as he melts off the crown
[Chorus]
The show must go on — no matter who dies
Trump feeds on the drama, the pain, and the lies
The lights are still flashing, the stage is still red
He’ll dance through the ashes, over bodies and dread
And the credits won’t roll ‘til the world’s overdrawn
But don’t change the channel — the show must go on
[Verse 2]
Trump picks his cast by the glint in their teeth
They strut for the lens while he hollows beneath
He fired the truth, replaced it with spin
Gave cruelty a suit and let chaos walk in
He calls out the generals, plays soldier in jest
While billionaires slobber and beg to be blessed
To him we’re all extras, to discard and erase
As he bombs out the world for a close-up on his face
[Chorus]
The show must go on — no matter who falls
Trump loves a collapse if the ratings stand tall
The music is madness, the crowd hypnotized
While the Constitution is vaporized
And the set may be fake, but the threat is full-drawn
So buckle in, baby — the show must go on
[Verse 3]
Trump never drove, never wept, never bled
Just powdered and posed while democracy bled
The poor are a nuisance, the sick just a drain
He plays to the rich while we choke on the pain
He gutted the laws, gave the grifters the keys
And laughed while the planet fell down to its knees
He’s hunting a war like a tiger in heat
'Cause nothing says ratings like global defeat
[Bridge]
Roy Cohn in the mirror, Mussolini in the eyes
The children in cages, the oceans that rise
The cabinet’s casting, the flag is a screen
And behind it all — Trump, cold and obscene
[Chorus - Final]
The show must go on — though the curtain is torn
Trump grins at the ruins of a nation war-worn
It’s theater of blood, it’s empire on fire
And he’s standing alone in the smoke and the wire
The world is a stage — he’s the bringer of dawn
But when morning won’t come, the show still goes on
This song is amazing! I'd love to share it. Would you consider making a music video that also can promote your stack that we can share on SM?
This SONG must go on!
