Carnival Knowledge (Second Hand Face)
guitar chords lyrics
I've never done it said the circus clown
See this is really my nose
I ran away back in junior high
Got this job and these clothes
You know I started out an altar boy
So that retarded me some
I've been saving up and down for years
To have the surgery done
I had a chance once with the popcorn girl
Until her father stopped that
He said he'd give me holes I didn't need
With a certain knifethrowing act
I'll roll my quarters and I'll roll my dimes
Till I am out of this place
You may know someone who would want my job
I'll roll my quarters and I'll roll my dimes
Till I am out of this place
You may know someone who would want my job
And a second hand face
I know a doctor who can do the job
Back in our winter town
It's slow to save what on this salary
And so much competition around
It got so bad I just didn't try no more
A heatless low head of esteem
I have to settle for the paper views
And the occasional dream
The smile I've got is one that's painted on
I could paint one on you
I just can't sell myself to pay for love
Like the other clowns do
I'll roll my quarters and I'll roll my dimes
Till I am out of this place
You may know someone who would want my job
And a second hand face
And a second hand face
And a second hand face
