Billy Corgan
The World’s Fair
[Verse 1]
Cross your gate and skip a beat
Ring your bell and cross the street
Will you come and take a peek
Who’s there?
Time will come suddenly
Change your life faithfully
Ride the wheel what will you see?
Is it me?
[Chorus]
The worlds fair
The worlds fair
The worlds fair to me
The worlds fair
Anytime, anytime you need
[Verse 2]
Roam the street, the people stare
Through the gate we walk on air
As we stroll so debonair
Arm in arm
Lights string out diamond keys
Water washes gentle things
Like washing hung to catch the breeze
From the west
[Chorus]
The world’s fair
The worlds fair
The worlds fair to me
Anytime, anytime you need
[Verse 3]
If you know you’ll never leave
If you know you’ll never know
What you know can never be
More than me and you
[Chorus 2]
Let it ride
Let it roll
Hold my breath
Lose control
The worlds fair
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
Stand in line and win a prize
Know yourself and get on by
Hold your hand up to the sky
From on and on
Sew my vote inside your coat
Comb the shadows for higher notes
Write to girls i never wrote
But keep in mind
Keep in mind
[Chorus]
The worlds fair
Worlds fair
The worlds fair to me
Anytime, anytime you need
[Verse 5]
In the state of holding hands
We take our leave, leave no demand
Give back into the land
For you and for me
For all/who come behind
Cross your gate and skip a beat
Close the door and cross the street
Will you come and take a peek
As I leave
[Chorus 2]
Let it ride
Let it roll
Hold my breath
Lose control
The worlds fair
