| I've seen your face | |
| In every place | |
| That I'll be goin' | |
| I read your words | |
| Like black hungry birds | |
| Read every poem | |
| Rise and fall | |
| Spin and call | |
| And my name | |
| Is carnival | |
| Sad music in the night | |
| Sings a scream of light | |
| Out of chorus | |
| And voices you might hear | |
| Appear and disappear | |
| In the forest | |
| Short and tall | |
| Throw the ball | |
| Let's play the game | |
| Of carnival | |
| Strings of yellow tears | |
| Drip from black wire fears | |
| In the meadow | |
| And their white halos spin | |
| With an anger that is thin | |
| And turns to sorrow | |
| King of all | |
| Hear me call | |
| Hear my name | |
| Carnival | |
| Here there is no law | |
| Just the arcade's penny claw | |
| Hanging empty | |
| A painted laughing smile | |
| And the turning of the style | |
| I do not envy | |
| King of all | |
| Hear me call | |
| Hear my name | |
| Carnival | |
| Colors fall | |
| Throw the ball | |
| Let's play the game | |
| Carnival | |
| Colors fall | |
| Throw the ball | |
| Let's play the game | |
| Carnival |
