Sideshow (6:40)

(Alice Cooper, B. Smith, M. Brooks, J. Norwood, D. Wexler, B. Saylor)

I ain't got no fun today
It's just like yesterday, oh yeah
Only different shades of grey
I'm bored right out of my skull
I'd have to get high just to be dull
I'm institutional
My TV screen spins around and around and around and around

(I need a sideshow) I need a sideshow

(Some kinda Creepshow) Some kinda creepshow, (of yeah) oh yeah
They ran the circus out of town
But the ring master said "Boy, you can stick around"

I pay to see the freaks
Some finger lickin' chicken-eating geek
Hey, that sounds cool to me
I just want to step inside
I want a scary ride, oh yeah
See Jeckyll turn to Hyde
I feel my head spinnin' round and around and around and around,around
around around

(I need a sideshow) I need a sideshow (oh yeah)
(Some kinda creepshow) Some kinda creepshow (oh yeah) yeah
(a freakshow) I just want someplace to go, (oh yeah)
I tried to be a circus clown
But even my monkey wouldn't hang around

And the hunchback midget and his twisted friends
Offer me a world of thrills that never end

I need a sideshow
Some kind of freaky show, oh yeah
(Sideshow)
Down where the neon glows
(Sideshow)
Just like a psychedelic video
Or a 24 hour party, go go go
Not a 90210, no
I need my sideshow, sideshow
My private, my private sideshow

(hmm, step right up, come on in, we have something for everyone taste
Say, you look like a bright young boy. What`s the matter? Afraid?).
