Carnival Lyrics - One Way Street: The Sub Pop Albums - Mark Lanegan

Where in the world have you been 

It's as strange as I've ever lived 

So you're comin' along to the sideshow 

I'll be fallin' all over like dominos 

For girls are sad in their eyes 

They're all standin' around bein' hypnotised 

And walkin' me back to the firin' line 

Ya smile to get in the door 

Ya can't keep it closed anymore 

Tell your ma that you're gone to the freakshow 

I'm crawlin' all over the carnival 

Just scratchin' a stitch in a skin 

I'm moanin' for more of the medicine 

In the mornin' you're wonderin' where ya been 

Just turnin' your back to the ghost 

And tryin' 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 mornin' 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 standin' around like they're hypnotised 

Who'll follow me back to the freak show 

I'm crawlin' all over the carnival 

And I am gone 

The kid's in a straight out for now 

In the mornin' 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 standin' around like they're hypnotised 

Who'll follow me back to the freak show 

I'm crawlin' all over the carnival 

And I am gone
