Lyrics

As the signs outside proclaimed
Nature sometimes makes mistakes
Was it the mother or the father to blame
Inside the damp grass and tilted tent?
As the signs outside proclaimed
Nature sometimes makes mistakes
Was it the mother or the father to blame
Inside the damp grass and tilted tent?

Won't you come with me to the fairground?
Your head
Will be spinning
I said your head
Is your feet
And the man at the side of me starts a lewd laugh
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
At the cat with two heads and the dog with eight legs
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
The man has come between us
His cheeks rattle like a fence
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
He's come between us, and he starts a lewd laugh
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!)

I sought shelter from the storm in a small inn by the coast
In the children's room three identical sisters sat
Except for the one who was hideously deformed;
Her grotesque features seemed to parody her sisters' beauty
Ridiculing and mocking everything I held dear

Won't you come with me to the fairground?
Your head
Will be spinning
I said your head
Is your feet
And the man at the side of me starts a lewd laugh
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
At the cat with two heads and the dog with eight legs
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
The man has come between us
His cheeks rattle like a fence
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
He's come between us, and he starts a lewd laugh
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!)

The fish-eyed foetus floated blankly in the yellowed waters, still as wax
The man came between us
My sister and i
Ridiculing and parodying everything we held dear
Making a mockery of our former emotions
Dragging it all down to his level

Won't you come with me to the fairground?
Your head
Will be spinning
And the man at the side of me starts a lewd laugh
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
At the cat with two heads and the dog with eight legs
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
The man has come between us
His cheeks rattle like a fence
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
He's come between us, and he starts a lewd laugh
(Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
And then we went for rides
Jarvis: roll up, roll up, nice rides..
Come on, spin those cars boys and make the girls scream!
The louder you scream the faster we go!
Come on, roll up, go on, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls
For the ride of a lifetime
There's plenty of seats, come on, don't be shy!
Roll up, come on, come on!
[Shreiking and wailing laughter]
And then we went for rides
