From the recording Showtime
Lyrics
Welcome boys and girls and all the genders every age
We've got surprises here in store to feast your eyes with something strange
And in the back we've got concession stands up for a tasty treat
We've got popcorn, cotton candy, hotdogs filled with human meat
I mean animal that's not important c'mon now step inside
I'll show you sights and things you've never seen before your great demise
Oh look now here's a curtain what's behind it no one knows
So sit your ass down in that fucking seat get ready for the show
Steadily right before you the curtain starts to rise
But there's nothing there but emptiness and dark to your surprise
And as you stare blankly into the deep abyss
You start to notice something quite familiar from inside of it
It's your ex but choked blue in the face how'd they get here
A couch that's full of people, family, sliced from ear to ear
They've had their tongues torn from their mouths that's what they get for talking shit
And your ex you told to choke and die
That's right well here it is
You see, here you get just what you want I heard you and your plea
All your deepest and darkest desires all made possible by me
And don't you worry about police or starting your life anew
Because once the song is over
Hahaha so are you
The shows not over folks
Not just yet now anyway
The fun is just beginning so c'mon let's play a game
It's called what's my biggest fear
You know the answer here's a clue
Your biggest is commitment not to someone else but you
You never finish any project that you ever start
You keep on making lame excuses and you never had the heart
To do the one thing you need to do so that's why you do nothing
That's why your life is now in shambles but that's OK I'll show you something
Another curtain opens wide it's you up on the stage
Your eyes are full of tears and your head is filled with rage
You never do anything right I've heard you say that to yourself
And this time you've gone too far and there's no one left to to help
Cut to black that's all that you see you're alone there is no crowd
Just you left to your vices by yourself there goes a clown
Ain't it funny when you think about how life just got away
Bleeding from your body slowly dying day by day
At a job you never liked that's why you've got a new one
And let me tell you it's a doosey but we'll have loads of fun
Do you get it now if not don't worry we'll be here all week
You're the latest attraction
