| Ya havin fun, walkin witcha mom and pops,
|
| At the carnival, you get on the cyclops,
|
| As it spins, it whips you up, something terrifying,
|
| You’re scared to death, two seconds from cryin,
|
| It’s finally over, you run back to where your parents were,
|
| But they’re missing, everything’s a blur,
|
| You walk into the crowd, nothin makes cute faces,
|
| You hear buzzes and bells and laughs from mental cases,
|
| Are they in the fun house? |
| You walk into it,
|
| And right away you’re thinking «why did I do it?»
|
| You’re in the tilted room, the maze of mirrors,
|
| Scary faces in the black light, drumming up fears,
|
| You headed up the stairs, and down the slime,
|
| Thank god you’re finally back outside,
|
| You check the food lines, river world, highs and lows,
|
| It’s really happenin', you’re lost at the carnival
|
| The carnival, the carnival, the carnival, the carnival…
|
| Went around, Lost at the Carnival,
|
| Where’d they go? |
| Lost at the Carnival,
|
| Went in town, Lost at the Carnival
|
| I don’t know, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Check around, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Check again, Lost at the Carnival
|
| You’re alone, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Lost in a maze, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Lost at the Carnival, you’re lost at the caaarnn…
|
| You get on the ferris wheel, a view from above,
|
| oh, you didn’t try the river of love?
|
| You hop on a boat slowly floating through the darkness,
|
| Evil cupids swooping down on a harness,
|
| You wanna cry, but you try to hold it in, man,
|
| Is that daddy shooting BB’s at the tin cans?
|
| Run up to him, tap him on the shoulders,
|
| Some drunk, would’ve been about 30 years older,
|
| «Come on! |
| Don’t bother me! |
| i’m tryna win, kid!»
|
| You didn’t look in Queen Lasheva’s pyramid,
|
| Once again, there you are lost in a maze,
|
| Staring at King Tut, in his eyes you gaze,
|
| Suddenly he blinks and stares right back upon you,
|
| Running off, was it real, or was it supposed to do that?
|
| Don’t ask Carnies for help, they got levers to pull,
|
| It’s really happenin', you’re lost at the Carnival
|
| The carnival, the carnival, the carnival, the carnival…
|
| Went around, Lost at the Carnival,
|
| Where’d they go? |
| Lost at the Carnival,
|
| Went in town, Lost at the Carnival
|
| I don’t know, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Check around, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Check again, Lost at the Carnival
|
| You’re alone, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Lost in a maze, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Lost at the Carnival, you’re lost at the caaarnn…
|
| You hear laughter, you smell the cotton candy cookin',
|
| Goin' through the haunted mansion, now, looking for your parents,
|
| Clown faces popin' out the dark,
|
| You’re thinking «it's impossible to check the whole park,»
|
| Just when you’ve had about all you can take,
|
| You check the midway games, and that was a mistake,
|
| «Hey kid, come over here, it’s only a buck!»
|
| «Hey little boy, win a big prize, come try yer luck!»
|
| Only one place left, the house of amusement,
|
| It looks friendly, it’s gotta be where they went,
|
| Inside you find your father, his eyes glow red,
|
| He’s on display in the wall of the hall of death!
|
| There’s your mother with fangs, chained to a potion,
|
| You ain’t even alive, you realize you’re a ghost,
|
| This is your personal hell, and now you know,
|
| That you’re doomed to forever be lost at the Carnival!
|
| At the carnival, the carnival, the carnival, the carnival…
|
| Went around, Lost at the Carnival,
|
| Where’d they go? |
| Lost at the Carnival,
|
| Went in town, Lost at the Carnival
|
| I don’t know, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Check around, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Check again, Lost at the Carnival
|
| You’re alone, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Lost in a maze, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Went around, Lost at the Carnival,
|
| Where’d they go? |
| Lost at the Carnival,
|
| Went in town, Lost at the Carnival
|
| I don’t know, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Check around, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Check again, Lost at the Carnival
|
| You’re alone, Lost at the Carnival
|
| Lost in a maze, Lost at the Carnival |
