Front man
Tied to invisible strings
A front man plays his role
Well learnt dialogues
Delivered as and how taught
Those behind the scene
Monitor each and every move
Words spoken, unspoken
All practised before
Front man, the guy of people
Charismatic and well loved
He's only an actor
Playing his role of a leader
There's none but all
In world leaders facade
Dancing to the tunes
Of few elites operating the game
Why common men can't see
Why they can't differentiate
Is it because each are tied to strings
Being a puppet to some masked idiot
Game of power, rule and wealth
Pawns appear one by one
Each playing their part
Enacting as and how trained
Why real leaders are pushed back
Why the men with real mettle seldom rise
An answer we already know
We are all trained to admire what's fake and obsolete
Front man speaking on screen
People all ears and eyes to him
Little do the people realise
Front man is as dumb as the audience he pleases

Front man is as dumb as the audience he pleases
Oh so true!
