Verse 1:
The carnival is over now you say
You must have met the juggler yesterday
And I in all my silly innocence
Gave to you my last fifty cents
Chorus:
Youre like a carousel a carousel
You picked me up and kicked me off like all is
well
Youre like a carousel oh well oh well
Youre like a carousel a carousel
You run around in circles like a ride from Hell
Youre like a carousel from Hell oh well
Verse 2:
When I held you in our first embrace
The gypsy woman laughed into my face
And all the spotted horses fell in line
Knowing you would soon give them the sign
Bridge:
Came inside bought a ticket to ride
Stood in line waited quite some time
Took my turn had a lot to learn
A nickel a ride youre never satisfied
Never satisfied never satisfied
Verse 3:
Well I must admit I had myself some fun
If I was a clown youd be the one
But I dont care for living in a tent
Anyway my moneys all been spent
