Carnival Curse

Spin, spin! Turn around
A head rolling, hitting the ground
Heat! Lights! A crowd and a masque
A madman in joyful disguise

Red nose, a swelling, a snot
A vomit of color and blood
Laugh, dance, a pompous parade
The sum of all human disgrace

Cotton and candy, the taste of cigar
A cloud of mosquitoes and rats
Disease and fun! A heavenly match
A circus, the theater of war

A bite to an apple with caramel grease
A carousel ride with monkeys it is!
The crisp and the crunch of aged bubble gum
The carnival curse now reigns the world

We are the clowns of the carnival world
The misery of mankind, a show on its own
Keep wearing a smile, keep painting your face
Keep filling your heart with joyful disgrace

Ladies and gentlemen!
For tonight’s entertainment
We present to you… mankind!

The glorious civilization built on freedom
And dead bodies.
Where guns speak louder than reason
And all ears are deaf to the truth.

All of them screaming injustice!
Spitting their rage at the screen
While sitting numb on the sofa
Eating and crying like pigs.

Marching with the bliss of the ignorant
At the beat of the coins and the bills
While the killer is granted all freedom
Like a wolf that is praised by the sheep.

We are the clowns of the carnival world
The misery of mankind, a show on its own
Keep wearing a smile, keep painting your face
Keep filling your heart with joyful disgrace
