Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Tariffs are taxes, they ain’t no thrill
Dress ’em up fancy, but they send us the bill
Jobs don’t show when the prices climb
All we get is overtime stress and decline
(Pre-Chorus)
You say it’s power, I say it’s pain
Raising the stakes in a losing game
No fix in sight, just empty frames
Playing with fire, who’s left to blame?
(Chorus)
Tariff trouble on the floor tonight
Trade war flashing in neon light
No plan, no build, just talk and spin
If we don’t move, we’ll cave right in
Oh-oh, oh-oh,
Tariff trouble, here we go!
(Verse 2)
Tension’s high, and the world’s on edge
You’re dancing solo on a shaky ledge
No roads, no wires, no solid ground
Without real change, we’re going down
(Pre-Chorus)
You shake the globe, but can’t control
The domino fall, the widening hole
No future built on just a fee
Need more than tweets to set us free
(Chorus)
Tariff trouble on the floor tonight
Trade war flashing in neon light
No plan, no build, just talk and spin
If we don’t move, we’ll cave right in
Oh-oh, oh-oh,
Tariff trouble, here we go!
(Bridge)
This ain’t the ‘30s, don’t rewind
Learn the lesson, read the signs
Build it better, build it strong
Tariff talk just plays us wrong
(Final Chorus)
Tariff trouble on the floor tonight
Trade war flashing in neon light
Great Depression knocking at the door
Don’t want that rerun anymore
Oh-oh, oh-oh,
Tariff trouble — no encore!
