Freakshow

Stephin Merritt

people gawk at the way you walk
you're a freakshow
people squawk 'bout the way you talk
you're a freakshow
people stare at your scary hair
you're a freakshow
people glare at that hat you waer
you're a freakshow


real people want to know
what it is about your face that irritates them so
real people stop and ask
why you wear that costume, and why don't you wear a mask?


normal folk think you're just a joke
and a freakshow
normal types cross the street for swipes
at the freakshow
even birds stop to drop their turds
on the freakshow
even geeks, even other freaks
hate the freakshow


real people fume and seeth
how dare you to share the air the public has to breathe
real people ask you why
with a face like you've got, won't you just lie down and...


real people look on you
like something unpleasant for the gabage crew to do
real people question how
someone took a lobster's face
and put it on a cow
real people say har, har
as a monster movie actor you could be a star
and soon....you are!
