Carnies

Under the gaze of the angels
 A spectacle like he's never seen
 Spinning lights and faces
 Demon music and gypsy queens
 The glint of iron wheels
 The bodies spin in a clockwork dance, ho-ho, ho-ho
 The smell of flint and steel
 A wheel of fate, a game of chance
 ♪
 How I prayed just to get away
 To carry me anywhere
 Sometimes the angels punish us
 By answering our prayers
 By answering our prayers
 A face of naked evil
 Turns the young boy's blood to ice
 Deadly confrontation
 Such a dangerous device
 The glint of iron wheels
 The bodies spin in a clockwork dance, ho-ho, ho-ho
 The smell of flint and steel
 A wheel of fate, a game of chance
 ♪
 Ho, ho-ho, shout to warn the crowd
 Accusations ringing loud
 A ticking box, in the hand of the innocent
 The angry crowd moves toward him with bad intent
