The breath of hope
And a clown that bites
Bring the coldest days
And the darkest night
Merry goes round and round the bushes
Carny hushers striking poses
Drive the worms out of my head
Put that needle to the red
Take me to the mouth of the monster
The sun pours down in golden shower
Drink and drink from the five gallon drum
On your knees for the thirst to come
This way golden beauties and cancan cuties
Speedway thrills at 100 smiles per hour
Sammy Savage will send you on a swirl with a bonifide half girl
Whose other half was torn real nice
With Frosty Feldman's block of ice
Stick out your tongues creepy crew
They stick on ice like flies on glue
If you're a little drunk on the tightrope wire
From the s**er's seat the illusion's fine
If a foot might slip and the safeties fails
On the long way down grab the devil's tail
Up and again onto my feet
Blow away into the street
Don't want to come down cause we're so high
Bigger than hope, faster than lies
Take me to the mouth of the monster
The sun pours down in golden shower
Fakes and friends and flakes and freaks
The red of sky is just the blood in your eyes
Merry goes round and round the bushes
Carny hushers striking poses
Take the wheel to the grave
Drive the worms out of my head
Take a bite of the pillow
Here is a bitter pill to swallow
Fakes and friends and flakes and freaks
The red of sky is just the red in your eyes
