RISHLOO
Freaks & Animals
[Verse 1]
Under this canvas, he hides a dream
A trick of the type too cheap to be free
Makes your burgeoning inquiry
More easily answered
Oh, a sight they have come to see
We shan't disappoint, they've paid for a scene
And a scene they shall have indeed
This dark, dark evening

[Chorus]
Join us inside, that's the way here
Come now, just step right up in line
Freaks, fools, and fire
Come nearer, come closer, it's nearly time
You there and you there, and come one and all

[Verse 2]
It looks better in red, my calico friend
Let us brood on the hue of need
What finds your favour?
No, the show must go on instead
With hundreds of eyes at two to a head
And the blindness is thrice complete
When all stand watching
[Chorus]
Step aside, make way for the stars' presence
Better beware, there's lights and glittering
Gaze deeper, stare harder, it's nearly time
You there, and you there, and come one and all, so plain

[Verse 3]
So have you ever wondered
Where were the demons they told us of?
Be patient, they're coming, shortly revealed to you
And I do think you'll find a dead ringer, dead ringer
Much still hides you curious minds, there's no hurry

[Bridge]
Now, where are my manners?
Round, around, why?
I believe they've all arrived
Out, out, from the wings

[Verse 4]
Set all the props in place
Lower the lights and wait
Now, bring them in, let them watch, let the spectacle rise
Hold your breath, this suspense leads the arrogant dead eyes
More than them will you spend for the vision of your life
[Outro]
Let the curtains fall down
Look now and see, that's quite the motley disguise you've borrowed
My friend, it seems quite odd, but you are the show you've paid for
Step through the mirror and now the circus spins on and on, so
Come one, come all, tonight
