Vanity Project Month

[Intro] Nicolle put on her glasses just to count the crowd. That’s when you know the lie came in blurry. [Quote Drop] “Sometimes the pictures really don’t tell the full story.” [Reaction] Yeah. Because the picture said empty. The mouth said packed. And reality said: motherfucker, relax. [Verse 1] Great American State Fair went off with a whimper Power went out and the crowd got thinner Ferris wheel stalled ice cream died Vanilla Ice canceled even nostalgia said bye He said packed with happy people Camera panned back like nah, not legal Dozens in daylight ego in flames Whole damn Mall couldn’t remember his name Tiny little crowd big little lie Even the flags looked bored watching fraud walk by [Chorus] Vanity Project Month Put it on the board Empty fair green pool gold room golf course Vanity Project Month Whole city knows He builds for himself while the rent still grows Vanity Project Month The clown got stuck Couldn’t line a pond but he wants a monument up Vanity Project Month Say it with your chest America’s broke but his ego needs guests [Quote Drop] “Oh my god, I can’t believe I’m reading this.” [Reaction] Neither can we, Nicolle. But here we are. A president live-posting reviews for his own damn circus while the country’s on fire. [Verse 2] Cost of living got teeth Iran war got smoke People can’t afford gas and this man wants a moat National monuments golf-course tour Ballroom dreams while the poor stay poor He wanted a fair but got a field trip flop Wanted crowd thunder got a generator pop Wanted triumph got melted desserts Wanted patriotism got unpaid workers All caps screaming Obama could never Obama’s motorcade draws more by accident, whatever [Chorus] Vanity Project Month Put it on the board Empty fair green pool gold room golf course Vanity Project Month Whole city knows He builds for himself while the rent still grows Vanity Project Month The clown got stuck Couldn’t line a pond but he wants a monument up Vanity Project Month Say it with your chest America’s broke but his ego needs guests [Quote Drop] “The more ludicrous it is, the more likely it’s true.” [Reaction] That’s not analysis anymore. That’s the national weather report. Chance of bullshit: ninety-nine percent. Scattered self-worship with pockets of legal exposure. [Verse 3] They said maybe AI Nope, that’s real This administration makes parody kneel Ridiculous first confirmation later Every dumb headline comes with a validator Velvet prison ego bubble thick Human fax machine printing praise real quick No bad news No pushback No brakes Just yes men speed-running national mistakes No-bid hustle toadies on deck Rush the job fast then blame the wreck Reflecting pool turned swamp-green slick Then he blamed vandals for his own damn trick [Bridge] Here’s the machinery. The thing he wants most gets done worst. Why? Because everyone around him is trying to please him faster than reality can object. No questions. No bids. No spine. No adult in the room. Just ego with a purchase order. [Quote Drop] “Allies or toadies or yes men.” [Reaction] Exactly. That’s not a staff. That’s a choir for a man singing to a mirror. [Verse 4] Tulsa flashback same old hunger Crowd size addiction made the whole room dumber Same appetite same fragile nerve Same desperate need to be publicly served But this time the crowd didn’t come Milli Vanilli canceled and the fair went numb Only bad things happen when fake vocals quit Even lip-sync legends said nah, fuck this Put-up-or-shut-up July on the way Slush fund court reflecting pool day Kennedy Center tarp Epstein file heat Todd Blanche testimony walking down the street Vanity projects coming back around Every little stunt grows teeth in the ground [Breakdown] Fair flop Pool green Crowd small Phone scream Power out Ice melt Truth hits Ego welt No bids Yes men Rush job Same end Vanity Insanity MAGA theme park No humanity [Final Chorus] Vanity Project Month Put it on the board Empty fair green pool gold room golf course Vanity Project Month Whole city knows He builds for himself while the rent still grows Vanity Project Month The clown got stuck Couldn’t line a pond but he wants a monument up Vanity Project Month Say it with your chest America’s broke but his ego needs guests [Outro] The fair was empty. The pool turned green. The power went out. The artist canceled. The crowd was tiny. And the president said: packed with happy people. At this point, the lie isn’t even trying. It’s just standing there holding a funnel cake in an empty parking lot.
