Clown Mask
My greatest trick
Is seeming more intelligent
Then I actually am
I am the great trickster
‘But if you can trick them…
Aren’t you smarter than them?’
Just a jest!
Just a jest!
Just a test!
Just a test!
The wise man
Never admits he is wise
If he does
Then in the moment that he admits it
He is obviously naive
That’s why
The arrogant wear
Clown masks
And tell jokes
In discret hope
That they can nudge the world in a better direction
Without anyone noticing what they are up to
It’s the fools mission
It’s the great con
The big trick
It’s a tragic comedy
When you have to trick the masses
Into doing what’s ‘right’
‘The big trick
From an arrogant prick
Who’s probably wrong'
'He just likes to sit back
And stir the pot
As society continues to rot’
‘What good is it to stir the great melting pot?’
‘Well...
It’s
Just
Something
To
Do.’
‘Throwing stones of chaos into the still waters of order
From my bedroom
Is just
Something
To
Do...
…
…
…
And pretending to be more intelligent than I am
Is just
My clown masks.
