Karn Evil 9 1st Impression, Pt. 2

Cold and misty morning, I heard a warning borne in the air

About an age of power where no one had an hour to spare

Where the seeds have withered, silent children shivered in the cold

Now their faces captured in the lenses of the jackals for gold

I'll be there

I'll be there

I will be there

Suffering in silence, they've all been betrayed

They hurt them and they beat them, in a terrible way

Praying for survival at the end of the day

There is no compassion for those who stay, yeah

I'll be there

I'll be there

I will be there

There must be someone who can set them free

To take their sorrow from this odyssey

To help the helpless and the refugee

To protect what's left of humanity

Can't you see?

Can't you see?

Can't you see?

I'll be there!

I'll be there!

I will be there!

To heal their sorrow

To beg and borrow

Fight tomorrow!

Step inside, hello! We've a most amazing show

You'll enjoy it all we know

Step inside! Step inside!

We've got thrills and shocks, supersonic fighting cocks

Leave your hammers at the box

Come inside! Come inside!

Roll up! Roll up! Roll up!

See the show!

Left behind the bars, rows of Bishops' heads in jars

And a bomb inside a car

Spectacular! Spectacular!

If you follow me there's a specialty

Some tears for you to see

Misery, misery

[Refrain]

Roll up! Roll up! Roll up!

See the show!

Next upon the bill in our House of Vaudeville

We've a stripper in a till

What a thrill! What a thrill!

And not content with that, with our hands behind our backs

We pull Jesus from a hat

Get into that! Get into that!

Roll up! Roll up! Roll up!

See the show!

Welcome back my friends, to the show that never ends

We're so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside

There behind a glass stands a real blade of grass

Be careful as you pass, move along, move along

Come inside, the show's about to start

Guaranteed to blow your head apart

Rest assured you'll get your money's worth

Greatest show in Heaven, Hell or Earth

You've got to see the show, it's a dynamo

You've got to see the show, it's rock and roll, oh

Right before your eyes we pull laughter from the skies

And he laughs until he cries, then he dies, then he dies

Come inside, the show's about to start

Guaranteed to blow your head apart

You've got to see the show, it's a dynamo

You've got to see the show, it's rock and roll, oh

Soon the Gypsy Queen in a glaze of vaseline

Will perform on guillotine, what a scene, what a scene

Next upon the stand will you please extend a hand

To Alexander's Ragtime Band, Dixieland, Dixieland

Roll up, roll up, roll up!

See the show!

Performing on a stool we've a sight to make you drool

Seven virgins and a mule, keep it cool, keep it cool

We would like it to be known the exhibits that were shown

Were exclusively our own, all our own, all our own

Come and see the show, come and see the show

Come and see the show

See the show
