Lyrics Carousel - Mr. Bungle

Carousel

A carnival for the human race
Cotton candy, happy face
A child talking with his mouth full
Girlfriend gets stuffed animal
A festive mood is all around
Another world is what we’ve found
Step right up, let’s make a deal
Let’s ride on the ferris wheel
You know there’s something lurking underneath the shape
With a mask over it’s head and makeup on his face
Will Warner Bros. put our record on the shelve?
Take a look in the mirror and see the clown in yourself
Spinning
Grinning
Believing
Deceiving
Whirling
Twirling
Confusing
Amusing
Discovery
Recovery
Inherency
Transparency
Fusion
Conclusion
Reality
Fatality
If you want to know what’s behind the show
You ride my carousel and enter life’s jail cell
Love and blood begin to meld, you’ve lost the self that you once held
Merry go round your head — awake, asleep, alive, or dead.
The clown that painted a smile on you
Is now the one unmasking you
Animated scenes unwind
Dormant figures come to life
Entangled in your own web
A twisted tunnel overhead
A glimpse of light, a drop of dew
You slide into the swimming pool
A roller coaster ride into the rivers of your mind
The currents merge, your feelings surge, your life’s a pantomime
Beauty is the spiral going round &round the beast
Without the v&ire effect the carnival is deceased
Fun.
Roly Poly
Topsy turvy
Hang upside down
Fall to the ground
I think I’m going to be sick
