[Verse 1]
You clamber up and look behind
Their watchful eyes, the helping hands
A hen that's fierce and painted blue
With red eyes, wants to swallow you

[Chorus]
A dragon dives and soars on tracks
The hands that strap you to its back
You turn around and look behind
Their smiling eyes won't help you down
Their tiny hands, their tiny feet
Such little hearts to miss a beat

[Verse 2]
Grotesque dwarves in mirrored rooms
Pulled and taut, a thousand you's
Staring back through stinging tears
Remembering those fun house thrills

[Chorus]
The paintbox tunes and wild balloons
Their watchful eyes, you start to swoon
Oh, painted vile in lurid hue
The snarling horse that waits for you
Its motor whirrs and colours curl
Inside your head, the monsters whirl
Its motor whirrs and colours curl
Inside your head, the monsters whirl
[Outro]
In sucked out
Time stood still
Roundabout back
Carousel
Time stood still
And you remember it well
In sucked out
Time stood still
Roundabout back
Carousel
Time stood still
And you remember it well
Carousel
Carousel
