lyrics

Small

The carnival came to town today
Creatures dancing on my screen
Dogs play my piano
Cats paint Monet
The carnival came to town today.

Failures on display for the amusement of cattle
Human frailty behind open doors
Another truth we don't want to see
Has a million hits on YouTube

We live in digital infamy
Can't wipe the slate clean
Everything recorded in a cloud,
Posterity just a click away,
For a like, a view, a share that isn't real.

And we shrink again, reality receding.....
And we shrink again, reality creeping.....
And we shrink again, afraid of our shadow...
And we shrink again, our minds getting narrow.

Small world
Small creatures
Small people
Crawling on their knees

We are all so....small.
