Carny - Momma

Face to face with a beauty, or he might’ve been

Mirrors distort me, but I still look like him

Wanted to feel how he crawled under my skin

Caught my reflection, the critter within

I heard him shout

He’s too big for this town

He’s a carny now

And people come down, he plays to the crowd

Said goodbye to my sweetheart, or he might’ve been

Warping his portrait, he’s a sideshow kid

Give a game to the carny, and he’ll always win

Inflate him with glory just to get him back in

I heard him shout

He’s too big for this town

He’s a carny now

And people come down, he plays to th crowd

I heard him shout

He’s too big for this town

He’s a carny now

And pople come down, he plays to the crowd

Don’t let him out

He belongs in this town

He’s a carny now

But I’ll stick around, to be in his crowd
