Spectacle & Show Lyrics

Bright lights and loud sounds
Have a peculiar effect
They lure in the viewer mostly when they least suspect
I want to break free
From this addictive pursuit
That's brought me nothing
And a colorful array of meaninglessness to boot

Fill me up with another
Round of senseless drama
Take your seats please for coming distractions

Lights, camera, action here we go
Hey hey hey, Ho-o-o
Somewhere deep inside you knows
Hey hey hey, it's just spectacle and show

Lies and deception
Have a remarkable way
Of filling seats and selling treats at your fictitious play
I won't 'admit one' to this ridiculous ruse
That's brought me nothing
But a barrel full of lyrics here to sing these blues

Fill me up with another
Round of senseless drama
Take your seats please for coming distractions

Lights, camera, action here we go
Hey hey hey, Ho-o-o
Somewhere deep inside you knows
Hey hey hey, it's just spectacle and show

No one knows why we draw closer
Something in the way it glows
Mesmerizing misdirection
All just spectacle and show

Lights, camera, action here we go
Hey hey hey, Ho-o-o
Somewhere deep inside you knows
Hey hey hey, it's just spectacle and show
