[Pulp - Fairground lyrics]
As the signs outside proclaimed
Nature sometimes makes mistakes
Was it the mother or the father to blame
Inside the damp grass and tilted tent?
As the signs outside proclaimed
Nature sometimes makes mistakes
Was it the mother or the father to blame
Inside the damp grass and tilted tent?
Won't you come with me to the fairground?
Your head will be spinning
I said your head is your feet
And the man at the side of
Me starts a lewd laugh
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
At the cat with two heads and
The dog with eight legs
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
The man has come between us
His cheeks rattle like a fence
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
He's come between us
And he starts a lewd laugh
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha)
I sought shelter from the storm in
A small inn by the coast
In the children's room three
Identical sisters sat
Except for the one who was hideously deformed
Her grotesque features seemed to
Parody her sisters' beauty
Ridiculing and mocking everything I held dear
Won't you come with me to the fairground?
Your head will be spinning
I said your head is your feet
And the man at the side of
Me starts a lewd laugh
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
At the cat with two heads and
The dog with eight legs
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
The man has come between us
His cheeks rattle like a fence
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
He's come between us
And he starts a lewd laugh
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha)
The fish-eyed foetus floated blankly
In the yellowed waters, still as wax
The man came between us my sister and I
Ridiculing and parodying everything
We held dear
Making a mockery of our former emotions
Dragging it all down to his level
Won't you come with me to the fairground?
Your head will be spinning
And the man at the side of
Me starts a lewd laugh
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
At the cat with two heads and
The dog with eight legs
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
The man has come between us
His cheeks rattle like a fence
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
He's come between us
And he starts a lewd laugh
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha)
And then we went for rides
Come on, spin those cars boys and
Make the girls scream!
The louder you scream the faster we go!
Come on, roll up, go
On, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls
For the ride of a lifetime
There's plenty of seats, come on
Don't be shy! Roll up, come on, come on!
And then we went for rides
Nature sometimes makes mistakes
Was it the mother or the father to blame
Inside the damp grass and tilted tent?
As the signs outside proclaimed
Nature sometimes makes mistakes
Was it the mother or the father to blame
Inside the damp grass and tilted tent?
Won't you come with me to the fairground?
Your head will be spinning
I said your head is your feet
And the man at the side of
Me starts a lewd laugh
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
At the cat with two heads and
The dog with eight legs
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
The man has come between us
His cheeks rattle like a fence
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha)
He's come between us
And he starts a lewd laugh
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha)
I sought shelter from the storm in
A small inn by the coast
In the children's room three
Identical sisters sat
Except for the one who was hideously deformed
Her grotesque features seemed to
Parody her sisters' beauty
Ridiculing and mocking everything I held dear
Won't you come with me to the fairground?
Your head will be spinning

And the man at the side of
