Twinkling lights come into view as the night swallows the day We listen for the sounds, the screams, the fear and the fun to guide us on our way The barker shouts, into his megaphone, Step right up and gather round Two nickels buys a ticket, the Carnivals in town! Chorus: Were going round, round, round, wheels on the wall Round, round, round, were not gonna fall Round, round, round, were all living for another day Well ride another day Were not here for the cotton candy, were here for the gasoline Were waiting for the show to begin then well all hustle in To hear the roar of his machine McClusky waves at a pretty girl, blows a kiss, we hold our breath Hes Cyclone McClusky and hes gonna ride the wall of d**h (Chorus) Will McClusky live? (or will he die?) I paid to watch him fall (or maybe watch him fly) Ive been afraid to live (Ive been afraid to try) But if the Cyclone can do it, then maybe so can I Now the midways empty, the grounds gone bare and cold I still can hear the cheers, the screams, the squeal of the wheels like when I was ten years old It echoes on, itll never die, I wont let go til my last breath Im living like the Cyclone and Im riding on the wall of d**h (Chorus)
