Siouxsie And The Banshees 
Lyrics for Song: Carousel 
Lyrics for Album: Peepshow [1988]
  
               
  14980>You clamber up
  And look behind
  Their watchful eyes
  The helping hands
  A hen that's fierce
  And painted blue
  With red eyes
  Wants to swallow you
 
 
  A dragon dives and soars on tracks
  The hands that strap you to its back
  You turn around and look behind
  Their smiling eyes
  Won't help you down
 
 
  Their tiny hands
  Their tiny feet
  Such little hearts
  To miss a beat
 
 
  Grotesque dwarves in mirrored rooms
  Pulled and taut -- a thousand yous
  Staring back through stinging tears
  Remembering those funhouse thrills
 
 
  The paintbox tunes and wild balloons
  Their watchful eyes -- you start to swoon
  Oh painted vile in lurid hue
  The snarling horse that waits for you
 
 
  Its motor whirrs and colours curl
  Inside your head the monsters whirl
  Its motor whirrs and colours curl
  Inside your head the monsters whirl
 
 
  In sucked out
  Time stood still
  Roundabout back
  Carousel
  Time stood still
  And you remember it well
  Carousel
