Insane Clown Posse - The Carousel lyrics

[Intro] Ladies and gentelman, gather around Prepare yourself for yet another story From the realm of the magnificent... Dark Carnival [Verse 1: Violent J] Have you ever heard about the old carnival tale? Some say it's all bullsh**, some say it's for real It's about big carousel, merry go round Unlike any other on carnival grounds The lights are so bright and so many colors With horses and swines and so many others It's hard to resist for a child so young Some hear the music and follow the drum It only appears in the dead of the night Children become mesmerised at the sight One minute to there and ?they're bed sound asleep? When they see it or hear it they all bound to creep Right up to their houses they're all drawn right up to it It's much too spectacular, they have to do it They stand right before it, like it's just a dream Cause it's the most beautiful sight that they've ever seen [Hook x4] The lights on the carousel (shinin' so bright and they) Spin around and round [Verse 2: Violent J] The children have gathered, they standin' around it It's never been here before they all astounded They wanna get on it, but is it for free? They don't see anyone collecting a fee How's gonna be the first to jump on the boarding Finally one kid does it and rest they hoarded Some jump on horses, some jump on elephants Some just relax and sit on a bench The kids all enjoyed the ride up and down All while the carousel spins around The lights and the music, it's all captivating Little do they know it's all devastating As the ride spins all the kids aboard cheer Nobody notices they've grown a year The children keep riding as time goes by They're aging in years on this mystical ride [Hook] [Verse 3: Violent J] First of all the teenagers, they keep on spinning Then they're all young adults, all of 'em grinning They're blind to the fact they're aging in time Once little kids now they're all in their prime But they keep on riding it lights up the darkness Something so beautiful, trully so heartless And neighbours and parents all peacefully asleep While the carousel attracted their children like sheep Wild children they were now they're middle age to 'dults Still growing older, the carousels fault The merry go spins as the times go by The children are all so older, bout to die Finally the carousel slows its role To these elderly victims its taking its toll All of them exit and realised they're damaged It ends just like that, the carousel vanishes [Hook]
