I paid for a seat At the back row Your grin went white When the curtain moved Saw your hands shake On the brass rail Like you knew my name From a bad old bruise You call it a show I call it a stain You drag your fear Like a chain on flame Step right in Don't look away The masks all melt When they hear you pray Theater of psychos Theater of psychos Take your bow, take your bow Theater of psychos Theater of psychos Theater of psychos Blood on the floor And a smile somehow The clown in the mirror Kept winking first The bride in the corner Bit through her pearl I watched your lie Wear a gold halo Then crash in the aisle Like a caged-up world You wanted clean hands In a dirty room Now every exit Leads back to you Step right in Don't look away The masks all melt When they hear you pray Theater of psychos Theater of psychos Take your bow, take your bow Theater of psychos Theater of psychos Theater of psychos Blood on the floor And a smile somehow All your little kings On a cardboard throne All your soft-spoken sins In a key of bone The house goes quiet Then it bites back hard You came for the noise Now you are the scar Theater of psychos Theater of psychos Take your bow, take your bow Theater of psychos Theater of psychos Theater of psychos Blood on the floor And a smile somehow
