Dog and Pony Show

Verse 1
They bring you in and ask you questions then send you on your way
And you think you’ll get the job … to increase your pay
But they never planned on giving you the job but you don’t know
You’re just another act in their dog and pony show
Verse 2
Then they tell you that the job wasn’t right for you
There’s something better up ahead a new job to do
You tell yourself to keep on trying … they surely know
But you’re just another act in their dog and pony show
Bridge
“Keep your chin up”, you hear everyday
“We really need you”, is that all they can say.
“You guys are awesome, oh and by the way.”
“Can you wait a week before you cash your pay?”
Verse 3
Then everything you thought was solid has turned to sand
Is this just a way for you to feel sorry for the man?
You’re at a crossroad … do you hang on … or do you go
You’re just another act in their dog and pony show
Yes, you’re just another act in their dog and pony show
