Overpromise

Longing for the primetime
And all the media pantomime
A trendy label on a bottle
Of an overrated wine
Loud, flashy, colour lime
Imitation Calvin Klein
An army of cardboard trucks'n'tanks
My staging is sublime

I must be missing
Something in my childhood
Now I'm showing off
My pathetic adulthood
My creed is the key
To have a big, big mouth
And never chicken out

I'm the overpromise
The circus and the fake
My mouth is big enough
To eat the big piece of the cake
I'm the overpromise
To dig is what I care
Never try to uncover
To reveal, don't you dare

Sometimes reputation calls
You fail and then it falls
It's time to set up a campaign
To remind that I got balls
Big posters on the walls
See my face at the malls
It's just a frame; everything is fixed
A close product recall
