 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Tilt and whirl, rise and plummet 
Stalled in the sky and loved it 
Blacked out, the stars above the lot still shone on you 
Wired on raw good luck 
We'll never get far enough above 
The sordid and sticky low-rent show that moves below 

I'm finding my own way around 
Our carnivalesque common ground 
When are the tents coming down? 

Savoring stale confections 
And magically cheap consessions 
To faith in a framework built to stand a test of days 
I can still smell the money 
A net beneath everything that falls 
Into the gap between love and pornography 

I'm finding my own way around 
Our carnivalesque common ground 
When are the tents coming down? 

The medicine show comes around 
To peddle a prescription now 
To medicate mistrust of crowds 
The pitch coming on sickly proud 

There's no way around 
There's no way around 
And there's no way the carnival tents are coming down
