Carnival
Where in the world have you been
It's as strange as I've ever lived
So you're coming along to the sideshow
I'll be falling all over like dominos
For girls are sad in their eyes
They're all standing around being hypnotized
And walking me back to the firing line
You smile to get in the door
You can't keep it closed anymore
Tell your ma that you're gone to the freak show
I'm crawling all over the carnival
Just scratching a stitch in a skin
I'm moaning for more of the medicine
In the morning you're wondering where you've been
Just turning your back to the ghost
And trying to look like you just might know
That all of the good that you've seen
Just went down and into the drain
Oh, kids am I straight out for now
In the morning I'm gonna find it on out
What in the world can it be
It's as strange as I've ever seen
The girls are dead in their eyes
Just standing around like they're hypnotized
Who'll follow me back to the freak show
I'm crawling all over the carnival
And I am gone
The kid's in a straight out for now
In the morning I'm wanna find it on out
What in the world can it be
It's as strange as I've ever seen
The girls are dead in their eyes
Just standing around like they're hypnotized
Who'll follow me back to the freak show
I'm crawling all over the carnival
And I am gone
Yeah
I'm riding on
It's as strange as I've ever lived
So you're coming along to the sideshow
I'll be falling all over like dominos
For girls are sad in their eyes
They're all standing around being hypnotized
And walking me back to the firing line
You smile to get in the door
You can't keep it closed anymore
Tell your ma that you're gone to the freak show
I'm crawling all over the carnival
Just scratching a stitch in a skin
I'm moaning for more of the medicine
In the morning you're wondering where you've been
Just turning your back to the ghost
And trying to look like you just might know
That all of the good that you've seen
Just went down and into the drain
Oh, kids am I straight out for now
In the morning I'm gonna find it on out
What in the world can it be
It's as strange as I've ever seen
The girls are dead in their eyes
Just standing around like they're hypnotized
Who'll follow me back to the freak show
I'm crawling all over the carnival
And I am gone
The kid's in a straight out for now
In the morning I'm wanna find it on out
What in the world can it be
It's as strange as I've ever seen
The girls are dead in their eyes
Just standing around like they're hypnotized
Who'll follow me back to the freak show
I'm crawling all over the carnival
And I am gone
Yeah
I'm riding on
