In stores and ads, they sell us dreams
With glossy covers and cunning schemes
They wrap it up in colors bold
But the only gleam is fool's gold
Politicians boast of future bright
Claiming they'll fix things overnight
They aim for change but stay the course
Their promises end in more remorse
Don't wanna hear another lie
We see the truth you try to hide
Spinnin' small into something big
You're just putting lipstick on a pig
In high-rise offices and shadowed rooms
They craft their tales to hide the gloom
They talk of wealth, but it's just a show
Ride in limos, spending our dough
Down on Wall Street they peddle lies
In Italian suits, and silk ties
They tell us where to put our funds
They sell it short and leave us crumbs
Don't wanna hear another lie
We see the truth you try to hide
Spinnin' small into something big
You're just putting lipstick on a pig
With shiny words and a polished grin
Paint over cracks on walls so thin
With flashing lights and siren calls
Lure us in with promises false
No more lipstick, no more lies
We've opened up our weary eyes
The truth will stand, the false will fall
No making deals with Monty Hall
Don't wanna hear another lie
We see the truth you try to hide
Spinnin' small into something big
You're just putting lipstick on a pig
You'll tap dance and call it a jig
Say it's empty then take a swig
Tell someone else, don't give a fig
Cause, you're still bald if you wear a wig
You're just putting lipstick on a pig
