Carnival

Nora Jane Struthers

Take me to the carnival
Let me ride the rides
Buy me a red balloon and some sweet potato fries
I don't care how long we stay
As long as we can see everything there is to see

I want to see the bearded lady in her yellow dress
I want to pray for the man on the highwire
I want to gawk at the grizzly bear’s arabesque
And the man who is breathing fire
How does a man breathe fire?

Take me to the carnival
I want to see the sideshows, I think they are beautiful
Well, there goes the world's tallest man
He has trouble finding places to stand
So they built a tent especially for him

I want to see the Fiji mermaid swimming in her tank
Taste the briny water she splashes with her tail
Watch the Siamese twins as they glide and sway
There goes a man with a bed of nails
What good is a bed of nails?

Take me to the carnival
Let me ride the rides
Buy me a red balloon and some sweet potato fries
I don't care how long we stay
As long as we can see everything there is to see
