The Lyrics
You wanna lie and fake and bullshit your way to the top? Good luck with the maintenance on that, asshole!
You lied, ev'ry word a trick
Scammed to make your way, could prove you're not legit
But I'd rather leave you be
What you wanted now, got the whole crowd bellowing
"You're the man!" King of all you can see
With all that entails, dude
Hope you like being in the spotlight to be watched and judged by the world's eyes
You're living with the bluff, living with the bluff
Ev'ry misstep will be belittled, hope your fudged background ain't too brittle
Living with the bluff, living with the bluff, sweet dreams
Live it, live it, live it, live it
Live it, can't leave, can't flee
Live with the bluff, live with the bluff
Live with the bluff 'cause me? I'd freak and flee
Said you liked to be in the spotlight, hope you can keep track of your white lies
While living with the bluff, living with the bluff
See in your eyes your strength's been whittled, each question chips it bit by little
Living with the bluff, living with the bluff, sweet dreams
Live it, live it, live it, live it
Live it, can't leave, can't flee
Live with the bluff, live it, live it, live with the bluff, live it, live it
Live with the bluff 'cause me? I'd freak and flee
Sweet dreams
Scammed to make your way, could prove you're not legit
But I'd rather leave you be
What you wanted now, got the whole crowd bellowing
"You're the man!" King of all you can see
With all that entails, dude
Hope you like being in the spotlight to be watched and judged by the world's eyes
You're living with the bluff, living with the bluff
Ev'ry misstep will be belittled, hope your fudged background ain't too brittle
Living with the bluff, living with the bluff, sweet dreams
Live it, live it, live it, live it
Live it, can't leave, can't flee
Live with the bluff, live with the bluff
Live with the bluff 'cause me? I'd freak and flee
Said you liked to be in the spotlight, hope you can keep track of your white lies
While living with the bluff, living with the bluff
See in your eyes your strength's been whittled, each question chips it bit by little
Living with the bluff, living with the bluff, sweet dreams
Live it, live it, live it, live it
Live it, can't leave, can't flee
Live with the bluff, live it, live it, live with the bluff, live it, live it
Live with the bluff 'cause me? I'd freak and flee
Sweet dreams
Huh...I know that The Greatest Show really cleaned up Barnum's life to make him a more palatable hero so a parody about a lying sleazeball is kinda fitting but that wasn't on my mind while writing this I swear.

Just kidding! By "We" I mean "I" and by "getting" I mean "sending" because I'm just a whiny little BlueAnon pedofaggotranny stuck in my nonbinary parent's basement making false accusations and empty threats against you the way all basement-dwelling welfare leeches do. Chucky and his worn out cabal of losers have obviously long since given up on policing and cleaning up this site for much of anything, so feel free to flood the site with dumb unfunny crap or stuff the defunct voting system with 555 or 111 bombs as you please; it's not as if anybody's going to do anything about anything around here.
