You turned around and look behind
It's motor whirs and colors curl
With red eyes wants to swallow you
The snarling horse that waits for you
A dragon dives and soars on tracks
Their smiling eyes won't help you down
Time stood still
Oh, painted vile in lurid hue
Inside your head the monsters whirl
It's motor whirs and colors curl
Pulled and taut a thousand yous
Their watchful eyes, you start to swoon
In sucked out
The hands that strap you to it's back
Such little hearts to miss a beat
Remembering those fun house thrills
Carousel
Time stood still
Roundabout back
And you remember it well
Inside your head the monsters whirl
And you remember it well
A hen that's fierce and painted blue
Time stood still
Carousel
Carousel
In sucked out
Staring back through stinging tears
Roundabout back
Time stood still
The paintbox tunes and wild balloons
Grotesque dwarves in mirrored rooms
Their tiny hands, their tiny feet
