Like a dancer on a wire
Like a man who swallows fire
Like a lady with a beard
Well honey I'm no Coney Island Freak Show
But lately things have been a bit weird
Like two sisters sporting tails
Like a man who swallows nails
Like a mystic predicting change
Well honey I'm no Coney Island Freak Show
But lately things have been a bit strange
Wish I could leave this place and just walk away
This town we live in it gets smaller every day
I'm suffocating and I finally see
That you can hide within yourself but you can never be free
Like a lady sporting pins
On the map on her back of every city she's lived in
Like a man with extra limbs
Well honey I'm no Coney Island Freak Show
But lately things have been a bit grim
Well honey I'm no Coney Island Freak Show
But lately things have been a bit strange
Well honey I'm no Coney Island Freak Show
But lately things have been a bit weird
