Abney Park
The Circus At The End Of The World
(spoken)
"Ladies and gentleman, welcome to the circus at the end of the world! Tonight, for your pleasure, we will laugh, and cry, and dance, and sing, but don't worry! None of it means a thing!"
(sung)
Welcome ladies, girls and boys
To this place of light and noise!
Dancing beauties spin like tops
And skillful craftsman show their chops
We laugh and cry year after year
But don't look closely, there's no tears
Nothing to say no thoughts to give
We are so imaginative!
In my words there's nothing hid
No deep meaning...I just kid!
All for your pleasure, light as rain
Nothings hidden, there's no pain
Hear the stories fancy free
Hear these tales of fantasy
No real journeys, no real pain
No understanding left to gain!
Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie!
(Spoken faintly) Ladies and Gentlemen bring your wallet and your good behavior to the rear
Where we will sell you a small piece of our souls
Just for your pleasure
