Roll Tango |
Father cried that hot summer day |
Playing the accordion |
Always making the crowds weep |
Grandfather stumbles as he passes the hat around |
Collecting the coins from each and every one |
Enjoy the sound of a broken heart |
When the arrow flies |
«Splits» the apple of your eyes |
Watch the strong man turn aside and flinch |
Not knowing that outside the camp |
Something wicked on its way |
Like a line of blood |
In the palm reader’s hand |
There’s no escape from a sideshow fate |
No escape from a sideshow fate |
There’s no escape from a sideshow fate |
Enjoy the taste of a broken rule |
There’s no escape from a sideshow life |
Card tricks with passports |
And the deck stacked against us |
No one sees the mermaid crying in her tank |
Behold the circus in the capitol |
Perform their pickpocket spectacle |
Sentenced to a tightrope life |
We don’t know the net’s been sold |
Under the spell of a gypsy’s curse |
Under the spell of a gypsy’s curse |
Under the spell of a gypsy’s curse |
Under the spell of a gypsy’s curse |
