Lost in the Funhouse

Faces are faces, gazeless and mazeless

Illusion enhanced by artificial means

Necessary distortion, reality your home

Be on the safe side, maintain control

Everyone shares everyone else’s

Operate the senses, operate the senses

Physical appearance, mannequins! amusement!

Some extra fun! Some extra fun!

Stay unaware, grouped in a bunch

Bananas! Bananas! Bananas for lunch!

Short, husky stature. Tall, lean n mean

Reassemble, reassemble, all chairs are a seat!

Fasten or shorten, use a small safety pin

Choose sometimes the one, sometimes the other

Shade for the driver, passenger gets sun

Some extra fun! Some extra fun!

Lurching and urging, whispers surging

Pins and needles, limping and shaking

It’s driving you forward calling, “Love! Love!”

Get all you can with me on the run

Go off the high dive, in-vain! in-vain!

Get up your nerve! Keep on! Keep on!

Jackknife! Cannonball! Shake yourself up!

Lost in the Funhouse! The Funhouse! The Funhouse!

The girl on the box, I’ll never forget her

World famous whatever, the mind’s apple pie!

Amusement! Use it! Let the merries go round!

Lose yourself! Exhaust yourself! Have some extra fun!

A family of four smiles for a picture

Their laughter carries out, out from the funhouse

Everyone shares everyone else’s

They’re lost in the Funhouse! The Funhouse! The Funhouse!

Half smoked Spirit, relevant events

Delay the climax, so scarce, so scarce

Mason jar of dust, the silence, the silence

Lost in the Funhouse, the funhouse, the funhouse.

Spend the sum quickly, pay with the left

Explode in a groan, explode with a moan

Most go quickly, a few lose their way

Rock on your heels, scream how you feel!

Stay unaware, grouped in a bunch!

Bananas! Bananas! Bananas for lunch!

Perspire in dark passages, under the walk

The Funhouse, the funhouse, lost in the funhouse…

Hear it and laugh aloud to yourself

Chuckle, wheeze, catch your breath and weep

Pins and needles, voice is cracking

Retreat into yourself, Posture! Posture!

Everyone shares everyone else’s

They’re lost in The Funhouse. the funhouse. the funhouse.
