The Night The Carousel Burnt Down Lyrics - Todd Rundgren

Weren't you there when the carousel burned down 

The fire and confusion, the smoke and the sound 

I swear you were there when the carousel burned down 

We were all around 

The rings charred and tarnished all over the ground 

And the heads hung down 

And we all left town the next day 

The children all cried when the carousel burned down 

The old ladies sighed and the carousel burned down 

The rest of us lied as the carousel burned down 

And the flames did fly 

The pipes steamed and shrieked out a blazing goodbye 

As the boiler died 

And they melted down the midway 

And we all left town the next day
