Hello my little one - Once you saw the light of day
You've played your games, you've searched a way
Raised from monkey up to men


The crazy clowns brought you up here
To show you how to show yourself

in the right bright light
To face the freakshow of the night


Take this fancy clothes
that your shelter stands the shows
Our colosseums still shine

for bread and games of postmodern time

Thumb up, thumb down,

gladiators' fighting for the crown
You're in cage, live on stage,
Nice to meet you, hello-hello,

Welcome To The Show!

* Stark naked - thrown to earth

Operating theatre - blinded birth
Do we really feel the same
Do you really know my name

My skin is a shelter - it keeps me save
My mind holds the key to open the cave


Stage fright's out of fashion --
on air, give me smile, give me passion
Don't worry, be happy, 'cause you will learn -

will learn!

To wear the inside in, outside out --

otherwise I have to shout
'cause you are washed ashore the scene
and it doesn't really matter what you mean


It looks so complicated, but it really isn't art
To create a mask, to create a... shielded heart


Hey it's just confusion where reality $#&@s illusion
You're in cage, live on stage

Nice to meet you, hello-hello,
Welcome To The Show!


* Stark naked - thrown to earth
Operating theatre - blinded birth
Do I hide 'cause I don't know

Who am I and I have grown
With so much noise - I couldn't hear
A mask created in a tear of fear
