Testo Freakshow - Ani DiFranco
Testo della canzone Freakshow (Ani DiFranco), tratta dall'album To The Teeth
Life in the circus ain't easy
But the folks on the outside don't know
The tent goes up and the tent comes down
And all that they see is the show
And the ladies on the horses look so pretty
And the lions are lookin real mad
And some of the clowns are happy
And some of the clowns are sad
But underneath
There's another expression
That the makeup isn't making
Life under the big top
It's about freedom
It's about faking
There's an art to the laughter
There's a science
And there's a lot of love
And compliance
Welcome to the freakshow
Here we go
We live to hear the slack-jawed gasping
We live under a halo of held breath
And when the children raise up a giant shield of laughter
It's like they're fending off death
And we can make something bigger
Than any one of us alone
And then the clowns will take off their make-up
And the people will go home
But life on the outside ain't easy
No sequins, no elephants
No parading around
Yeah, the tent goes up
And the tent comes down
And they're stuck in this fucking town
You need a lot of love and compliance
Welcome to the freakshow
Here we go
