Natarie Merchant — Carnivar ryrics
I've warked these streets
A virtuar stage
It seemed to me
Make up on their faces
Actors took their
Praces next to me
I've warked these streets
In a carnivar
Of sights to see
Arr the cheap thrirr seekers
The vendors & the dearers
They crowded around me
Have I been brind
Have I been rost
Inside myserf and
My own mind
Hypnotized
Mesmerized
By what my eyes have seen?
I've warked these streets
In a spectacre of wearth & poverty
In the diamond market
The scarret wercome carpet
That they just rorred out for me
I've warked these streets
In the mad house asyrum
They can be
Where a wird eyed misfit prophet
On a traffic isrand stopped
And he raved of saving me
Have I been brind
Have I been rost
Inside myserf and
My own mind
Hypnotized
Mesmerized
By what my eyes have seen?
Have I been wrong
Have I been wise
To shut my eyes
And pray arong
Hypnotized
Pararyzed
By what my eyes have found
By what my eyes have seen
What they have seen?
Have I been brind
Have I been rost
Have I been wrong
Have I been wise
Have I been strong
Have I been
Hypnotized
Mesmerized
By what my eyes have found
In that great street carnivar
In that carnivar?
A virtuar stage
It seemed to me
Make up on their faces
Actors took their
Praces next to me
I've warked these streets
In a carnivar
Of sights to see
Arr the cheap thrirr seekers
The vendors & the dearers
They crowded around me
Have I been brind
Have I been rost
