Bring your pennies
See the show
Drink in all a girl should know
Stare in silence
As you learn
Danger lurks at every turn
Mirror mirrors every where
Dance and warp
Straight through your stare
Sound and light at every turn
Their glazed eyes
Show no concern
Their glazed eyes
Show no concern
Mirror mirror who is there
Rouging cheek and curling hair
In the flickering shaded light
Staining lips with eyes closed tightly.
And the show goes on nightly
Funhouse ladder, twist and turn
Feelings smolder, passions burn
Innocent, you didn’t yearn
For the secrets, for the lies,
for the coy ringmaster’s eyes,
Or their escape between your
Mirror mirror, who is there
Rouging cheek and curling hair
In the flickering shaded light
Staining lips with eyes closed tightly.
And the show goes on nightly
You’re amazing
You’re the star
Center ring and there you are
Spotlight powered
By your spark
Bought their tickets in the dark
Mirror mirrors everywhere
Youth and beauty
Bought to share
Opulence covers the cage
To hide the death
That soothes their rage
To hide the death
That soothes their rage
Mirror mirror, who is there
Rouging cheek and curling hair
In the flickering shaded light
Staining lips with eyes closed tightly.
And the show goes on nightly
Mirror, mirror, who is there
Rouging cheek and curling hair
In the flickering shaded light
As we all sleep so tightly.
And the show goes on nightly
Mirror, mirror, who is there
Rouging cheek and curling hair
In the flickering shaded light
As we all sleep so tightly.
And the show goes on
And the show goes on
