THE MOONLING lyrics : "Welcome To The Show"
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
