letra de the carousel - violent j

[intro: shaggy 2 dope]
ladies and gentlemen, gather around
prepare yourself for yet another story
from the realm of the magnificent… dark carnival

[verse 1: violent j]
have you ever heard the old carnival tale?
some say it’s all bullshit, some say it’s for real
it’s about big carousel, merry go round
unlike any other on carnival grounds
the lights are so bright and so many colors
with horses and swans, and all of the others
it’s hard to resist for a child so young
some hear the music and follow the drum
it only appears in the dead of the night
children become mesmerized at the sight
one minute they’re there in their beds sound asleep
when they see it or hear it, they’re bound to creep
right out of their houses; they’re drawn right up to it
it’s much too spectacular, they have to do it
they stand right before it, like it’s just a dream
’cause it’s the most beautiful sight that they’ve ever seen

[chorus]
the lights on the carousel (shine so bright and then)
spin around and round
the lights on the carousel (woo!)
spin around and round
the lights on the carousel (shine so bright and then)
spin around and round
the lights on the carousel (woo!)
spin around and round

[verse 2: violent j]
the children have gathered, they’re standing around it
it’s never been here before. they all astounded
they wanna get on it, but is it for free?
they don’t see anyone collecting a fee
who’s gonna be the first to jump on aboard it
finally one kid does, then the rest, they hoard it
some jump on horses. some jump on elephants
some just relax and sit on a bench
the kids all enjoy the ride up and down
all while the carousel spins around
the lights and the music, it’s all captivating
little do they know, it’s all devastating
as the ride spins all the kids aboard cheer
nobody notices they’ve grown a year
the children keep riding as time goes by
they’re aging in years on this mystical ride

[verse 3: violent j]
first they’re all the teenagers, they keep on spinning
then they’re all young adults, all of ’em grinning
they’re blind to the fact they’re aging in time
once little kids, now they’re all in their prime
but they just riding. it lights up the darkness
something so beautiful, truly is heartless
the neighbors and parents all peacefully sleep
while the carousel attracted their children like sheep
well, children they were, now they’re middle-aged adults
still growing older, the carousel’s fault
the merry-go spins as the times go by
the children are now so old, they’re about to die
finally the carousel slows its roll
to these elderly victims, it’s taking its toll
all of them exit and realize their damages
and just like that, the carousel vanishes

[outro: shaggy 2 dope]
and all the old people tried to return home
(spin around and round)
but they were all thought to be senile
(spin around and round)
their entire lives wasted on one ride
(spin around and round)
f-gs
