	The drunken clown's still hanging round
	But it plain the laughter's all died down
	The tears you tried so hard to hide
	Are flowin'
	A blind man with his knife in hand
	Has convinced himself that he understands
	I wish him well, miss carousel
	But i gotta be a-goin'
	Won't you come and get me when
	You're sure that you don't need me then
	I stand outside your window
	And proudly call your name
	The ladies been told that all of gold
	Is worth so much it can't be sold
	No time to weep she'll need her sleep
	Tomorrow
	When she carries her face to the market place
	And bets it on the opening race
	She can ring her bells, miss carousel,
	But her singing brings me sorrow
	It's always done every mother's son
	Is shown that grown men never run
	And so they fight with all the might
	Inside them
	When the battle's been fought and they all been taught
	That the trick is just not being caught
	Will you give them hell, miss carousel,
	When they're begging you to hide them
	When the need arose your eyes fell closed
	You clamped your fingers round your nose
	Would you say that's any way
	To judge him
	You haven't got the authority
	To kill him in the first degree
	But would you feel compelled, miss carousel,
	If you have something to begrudge him
	On a velvet beach far beneath the reach
	Of those that come to pray and preach
	The natural man who tries to stand
	Is fallin
	How long will it be before he sees
	You own his legs but his mind is free
	Only you can tell, miss carousel,
	How long will he be crawling?
	The castle walls has grown so tall
	Seem there ain't no hope at all
	To reach the top even though you stop
	For breathin'
	But i ain't gonna try to make you cry
	The tear drops couldn't find your eye
	It's all been swell, miss carousel,
	But the time has come for leavin'
