Paroles de Fairground

Lost my heart in the fairground the sad clown tries to smile How quickly goes our innocence how swiftly we’re defiled Lost my heart in the fairground when I saw the cheapest rides Were the ones the crowds queue for the sad clown stands aside The vulgar neon prostitutes they always win the day How swiftly our innocence is swept away Lost my heart in the fairground when I saw that it was crap Well marketed and packaged that keeps them coming back How quickly we do swallow the bitterest of pills The neon whores and sycophants who peddle cheaper thrills How quickly fairground barkers learn to shout The quick and easy buck is what it’s all about Lost my heart in the fairground the sad clown tries to smile How quickly goes our innocence how swiftly we’re defiled
