And no-one saw the carny go
And the weeks flew by Until they moved on the show Leaving his caravan behind It was parked out on the south east ridge |
printable copy of the lyrics to The Carny |
| And as the company crossed the bridge
With the first rain filling the bone-dry river bed It shone, just so, upon the edge Away, away, we're sad, they said |
Not the lyrics to "The Carny" ?, Please report that below. |
|
Dog-boy, atlas, half-man, the geeks, the hired hands
There was not one among them that did not cast an eye behind In the hope that the carny would return to his own kind |
Is this song NOT from YOUR FUNERAL... MY TRIAL ? Would you report that? |
|
And the carny had a horse, all skin and bone
A bow-backed nag, that he named "Sorrow" How it is buried in a shallow grave In the then parched meadow |
If you can not find the lyrics you want, You may want to request them. |
|
And the dwarves were given the task of digging the ditch
And laying the nag's carcass in the ground And boss Bellini, waving his smoking pistol around saying "The nag is dead meat" "We caint afford to carry dead weight" The whole company standing about Not making a sound And turning to dwarves perched on the enclosure gate The boss says "Bury this lump of crow bait" |

And thean the rain came
Everybody running for their wagons Tying all the canvas flaps down The mangy cats crowling in ther cages The bird-girl flapping and squawking around The whole valley reeking of wet beast Wet beast and rotten hay Freak and brute creation Packed up and on their way |

The three dwarves peering from their wagon's hind
Moses says to Noah "We shoulda dugga deepa one" Their grizzled faces like dying moons Still dirty from the digging done |
Anything wrong with the lyrics to "The Carny" on this page, Would you please report that ? |
|
And as the company passed from the valley
Into a higher ground The rain beat on the ridge and on the meadow And on the mound |
|
|
Until nothing was left, nothing at all
Except the body of Sorrow That rose in time To float upon the surface of the eaten soil |

And a murder of crows did circle round
First one, then the others flapping blackly down |
Thank you for useing lyricsandsongs. |
|
And the carny's van still sat upon the edge
Tilting slowly as the firm ground turned to sludge And the rain it hammered down |
|
|
And no-one saw the carny go
I say it's funny how things go |
