The Ringleader

Ladies and gentleman Come in come all, take a seat Relax take a load off And enjoy the show Be happy, be merry for you all are The guests, my guests The audience to the greatest show on earth We have a mystical show for you all tonight Dazzling lights will send your mind in a scurry for reality Freaks that will frighten your soul, but I dare you to look away Exotic animals that are bred to entertain even the closest of minded Why am I wearing this mask? You might be asking yourself Are you feeling a little dizzy? Are your eyes a little watery? It’s called mustard gas, used in World War 1 And you all are breathing it in, oh this truly is the greatest of all shows Go ahead and run, you have no place to go. And for your final performance, I will rise to the rafters And watch you all die I am your ringleader, goodnight!
