Zoot - The Freak lyrics

(Rick Springfield) Step inside the tent ladies and gentlemen And see the freak they call 'Jojo The Dog Face' He walks like a man He talks like a man Yet he was born with the face of a dog An actual living freak of nature Bright lights Blind me And I'm whisking by the people Pushing, rushing To the organ grinder's music And my eyes are running And my legs are aching And there's people winning And the carnival's spinning Merry - go round Go round and they make me dizzy People - shouting As they shoot and win an ashtray And my head is breakin' And my ears are splitting And my hair is thinning And the carnival's spinning After the people have gone I walk alone down sideshow alley And from a tent I hear some crying The sound of someone in pain And written brightly on the canvas and woodwork So that everybody would see Was the question they pose to the public "When is a man not a man When he's a freak in a sideshow" But we've all got to cry Yes we all got to cry And we've all got to cry Bright lights Blind me And I'm whisking by the people Pushing - rushing To the organ grinder's music And my eyes are running And my legs are achy And there's people crying And the carnival's dying
