Abney Park

(spoken) "Ladies and gentleman, welcome to the circus at the end of the world! Tonight, for your pleasure, we will laugh, and cry, and dance, and sing, but don't worry! None of it means a thing!" (sung) Welcome ladies, girls and boys To this place of light and noise! Dancing beauties spin like tops And skillful craftsman show their chops We laugh and cry year after year But don't look closely, there's no tears Nothing to say no thoughts to give We are so imaginative! In my words there's nothing hid No deep meaning...I just kid! All for your pleasure, light as rain Nothings hidden, there's no pain Hear the stories fancy free Hear these tales of fantasy No real journeys, no real pain No understanding left to gain! Lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie! (Spoken faintly) Ladies and Gentlemen bring your wallet and your good behavior to the rear Where we will sell you a small piece of our souls Just for your pleasure
