Lyrics

Bread and Circus
C. 2023 Tom Higgins
V1:
Kings and influencers come and go
Living in worlds of their making
Without a clue about how they might give
When their lives ‘till now have focused on taking
Some claim the headlines until they’re followed by
Ten million sales targets
Who believe they could have the same sort of luck
In a world where it’s all bread and circus
Chorus:
Yeah, Bread and circus
This goes back nearly 2000 years
Entertainment led to the Fall of Rome
And there’s a lesson there
V3:
Waves understand that things come and go
Gravity is more than a theory
Velocity is less important than
Knowing you have the right destination
V4:
I love the ocean and its honesty
Showing things change yet stay the same
In 100 years what will matter
Instrumental verse
V5:
Watch the waves as they come and go
Are they real or just a theory?
Will you be finding the right destination?
Or end up distracted….by bread and circus
Chorus:
Yeah, Bread and circus
Brought to you by the very rich
Who are focused on suiting themselves
And not you!
Roman History – there’s a lesson there
Maybe that’s why they’re banning books
