Step Right Up (Welcome to the Show)

Dusty light, a foggy night, welcome to the Show
You’ll see things from out of this land
Like the Flying fish, and the toothpick man.
Rabbit’s dance beneath your eyes, distracting
Darts of deception
In trapeze filled skies.
Welcome to the Show!
How many elephants have you seen?
Ride a bear and lick your face clean.
How many years can one man give?
Mr. Johnson met the Devil and forever he’ll live.
Freely falling in a net of nicely knit lies
While clowns dance about filling your mouths
With our pies, welcome to the show
All nomadic folk from far and wide
This is for you so keep your pride
But I’ll take that fiver in my hand
That you’ll never see again
Relax and take your seat
We’ll entertain you
Welcome to the show!
Many moons ago I saw you weeping
Sewed your cheeks cause they were leaking.
You looked at me and screamed ‘How did you find me?'
‘Time slips here It’s backwards land,
Where music moves from an assassins band.'
Portraying silence with a twisted hand
Casting colorful shadows that drift through sand
So welcome to the show!
All nomadic folk from far and wide
This is for you so keep your pride
But I’ll take that fiver in my hand
That you’ll never see again
Relax and take your seat
We’ll entertain you
Welcome to the show!
Welcome to the show!
Gentleman stands and begins a tale
Of a princess trapped in a wishing well
Moving beneath the pale lit moon
Devious eyes watch her swoon
Taunting them with her magical ways
The watched and waited for many days
When envy finally cracked the shell
The damned the Princess to the wishing well'
Welcome to the show!
All nomadic folk from far and wide
This is for you so keep your pride
But I’ll take that fiver in my hand
That you’ll never see again
Relax and take your seat
We’ll entertain you
Welcome to the shoow!
