Natalie Merchant - Carnival lyric
Ringtone: Send Carnival Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
Well, I've walked these streets
A virtual stage, it seemed to me
Makeup on their faces
Actors took their places next to me
Well, I've walked these streets
In a carnival of sights to see
All the cheap thrill-seekers
The vendors and the dealers
They crowded around me
Have I been blind, have I been lost
Inside myself and my own mind
Hypnotized, mesmerized
By what my eyes have seen
Well, I've walked these streets
In a spectacle of wealth and poverty
In the diamond market
The scarlet welcome carpet
That they just rolled out for me
And I've walked these streets
In the madhouse asylum they can be
Where a wild-eyed mystic prophet
On a traffic island stopped
And he raved of saving me
Have I been blind, have I been lost
Inside myself and my own mind
Hypnotized, mesmerized
By what my eyes have seen
Have I been wrong, have I been wise
To shut my eyes and play along
Hypnotized, paralyzed
By what my eyes have found
By what my eyes have seen
What they have seen
Have I been blind (blind)
Have I been lost (lost)
Have I been wrong
(Have I been wrong)
Have I been wise
(Have I been wise)
Have I been strong
Have I been hypnotized, mesmerized
By what my eyes have found
(By what my eyes have found)
In that great street carnival
Have I been blind (blind)
Have I been lost (lost)
Have I been wrong
(Have I been wrong)
Have I been wise
(Have I been wise)
Have I been strong
Have I been hypnotized, mesmerized
By what my eyes have found
(By what my eyes have found)
In that great street carnival
In that carnival
