"Sideshow" lyrics

"Sideshow"

I ain't got no fun today
It's just like yesterday
Oh yeah
Only different shades of grey
I'm bored right out of my skull
I'd have to get high just to be dull
I'm institutional

My TV screen spins around and around and around and around

I need a sideshow
Some kinda creepshow
They ran the circus out of town
But the ring master said, "Boy, you can stick around."

I pay to see the freaks
Some finger-lickin' chicken-eating geek
Hey, that sounds cool to me
I just wanna step inside
I want a scary ride
Oh yeah
See Jekyll turn to Hyde

I feel my head spinnin' 'round and around and around and around, 'round, 'round, 'round

I need a sideshow
Oh yeah
Some kinda creepshow
Oh yeah
I just want someplace to go
Oh yeah
I tried to be the circus clown
But even my monkey wouldn't hang around

And the hunchback midget and his twisted friends
Offer me a world of thrills that never end

I need a sideshow
Some kind of freaky show
Down where the neon glows
Just like a psychedelic video
Or a 24-hour party, go go go
Not a 90210, no
I need a sideshow
My private sideshow
