Carnival Lyrics

The song Carnival is performed by Mark Lanegan in the album named Whiskey for the Holy Ghost in the year 1994 .

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' hypnotized
And walkin' me back to the firin' line
You smile to get in the door
You can't keep it closed anymore

Tell your ma that you're gone to the freak show
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 hypnotized
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 hypnotized
Who'll follow me back to the freak show
I'm crawlin' all over the carnival
And I am gone [Incomprehensible]
