Theatre Noir

Welcome to Theatre Noir
 The Traveling Circus Sideshow
 Land of the Freaks, Home of the Depraved
 Welcome to Theatre Noir
 Nagina can charm any cobra
 Sabra can swallow any sword
 Masters of the Macabre! Gladiators of the Grotesque!
 Prodigies of all Perversions!
 And now Lydia, the Tattooed Lady, takes the stage
 A serpent wound 'round her neck
 Defiant roses decorate her arms,
 Flames lick their way up her legs
 With a proud full gaze she confronts her audience
 Welcome to Theatre Noir
 We take pride in our deformities
 Profit from your disgust
 Natural-born Monstrosities! Self-created Oddities!
 Morbid Curiosities!
 Next up, Young Aidan, raised in sheltered bliss
 In the unassailable Midwest
 The red carnival ticket was admission to a brave new world
 One look at lovely Lydia he could hardly see the ink
 He saw beauty beneath her branded skin
 Her eyes whispered to his soul within,
 They said "Welcome to Theatre Noir"
 Onward the caravan crawls
 With Aidan following after
 His lunatic obsession only grew with each rejection
 Welcome to Theatre Noir
 Backstage he proclaimed his love
 But Aidan was tragically rebuffed,
 "We are all abominations, and without some aberration,
 you'll never be one of us."
 "I'll do anything," Aidan replied.
 "I'd walk though fire to stay by your side!"
 And that's precisely what he did
 His hair melted and his flesh dripped
 He rose like a phoenix from the smoking ash; thus was born the Smoldering Man
 Welcome to Theatre Noir
 Come see the Tattooed Lady,
 At her side, the Smoldering Man
 The Legendary Lovers, so scandalous, so strange
 Twisted and taboo and so deliciously deranged
 Witness their wickedness, their pleasure and their pain
 And Welcome to Theatre Noir!
 We'll glorify your scars
 You'll be the Greatest Star!
 Yes, Welcome to Theatre Noir!
