Ferris Wheels And Freakshows Songtext

von Grey De Lisle

Well I don't know a lotta great big college words
To tell you how I feel
But I borrowed Bob's truck and saved up my tips for three weeks
To ride your ring of steel
And you may not believe me but that ain't nothin' new
It's been ferris wheels and freakshows since I met you

You're drownin' in that polyester vest
And plastic yellow shoes
I shoved nineteen years o' nerve into this dress
I'm only twenty two
And you might think I'm crazy
Depends on who you been talkin' to
It's been ferris wheels and freakshows
It's been ferris wheels and freakshows since I met you

That fat lady died here
At last summer's midnight show
She didn't get to hold nobody close before she go
So let that be a lesson to freaks like you and me
Lettin? carnies rob us of our carnal gluttony

Dr. Pepper lip gloss sweet love's baby soft
My lucky rhinestone ring
Forget the zipper, tear this ticket off
Show me everything
Yeah, go on say I'm easy, make the rumors all come true
It's been ferris wheels and freakshows
It's been ferris wheels and freakshows
It's been ferris wheels and freakshows since I met you
Since I met you
