AMY CORREIA - CARNIVAL lyrics

The bearded lady winked at the tattooed man

And the tattooed man took her by the hand

Together they walked into their house of mirrors

And that starts a whole bunch of sideshow rumors

They were a little bit afraid of looking at each other ‘cause

Everybody said you look weird together

When the lights go up and the sun goes down

They're the perfect couple underneath these pink cotton candy clouds

It was a carnival carnival love

It was a carnival carnival love

It was a carnival carnival love

The sword swallower swallowed his pride

And he fell at the knees of his contortionist bride

He said you bent over backwards honey to give me your love

And it's made me believe in a god above

chorus

And the fat lady looked so beautiful

Under the fried dough moon

And the rough sailor boy with his unanchored eye

He was the only one there made that solid woman swoon

chorus

I heard ecstatic lovers screamin' on the roller coaster ride

I saw girls who felt pretty with a boyfriend at their side

I could taste it I could smell it in the air

It was love and it cast out all fear

And the lonely hearted people who ride on the ferris wheel

Gonna eat a sugar-coated star

And all those lonely hearted people up there

They just got to be loved for exactly who they are

chorus
