Come and see what's on my mind See the clowns who play the daily show Take your ticket and sit down Outside you would be all alone All the people sit and stare The red light's on, the world's on air See the facts they disappear But it could be the truth if you pretend Caught in a cage of hope and dreams No world for me outside the screen Welcome to the freak show You don't have to come and play Just relax you're fully entertained Welcome to the freak show Now the gods come to be praised Beating up the man without a face Children drowning in their dreams But a savior's nowhere to be seen All the people sit and stare It's a lifetime-show without an end See the facts they disappear But we show you what you should pretend Caught in a cage of hope and dreams No world for me outside the screen Welcome to the freak show You don't have to come and play Just relax you're fully entertained Welcome to the freak show The lights go out, the spotlight's on You can feel the time is near The master's here to sing his song Listen carefully, my dear Full of surprise, so don't close your eyes It's the best the world has seen And all his words, beyond belief As in the middle of a dream Caught in a cage of hope and dreams No world for me outside the screen Welcome to the freak show You don't have to come and play Just relax you're fully entertained Welcome to the freak show
