Carnival Noir

Come and follow me, put on your finery
Explore the mystery of the Carnival Noir
It's a peepshow, a burlesque, a freak show
A unique show at the Carnival Noir

Take a step across the threshold of innocence
Don't look back and do not hesitate
Join us in a world of dreams and decadence
Join the carnival before it's too late

Dandy delusion, a sense of confusion
Use your illusion at the Carnival Noir
Rush of elation, a standing ovation
Inspiration at the Carnival Noir

Dark pretensions and monstrous passion
Saints and sinners both have come to pray (prey)
Sweet perversions and slaves to fashion
Vice and virtue both come out to play

Here's a wicked scene, a Mistress of the Obscene
Bow before the Queen of the Carnival Noir
Exotic flavour, sensations to savour
Misbehaviour at the Carnival Noir

Sleaze and decadence and sensuality
Tumble by in a mad parade
Hide your face with a mask of depravity
Incognito in the masquerade

Tasteful oppression, delightful aggression
Make your confession at the Carnival Noir
Heightened emotion, arrogant devotion
Start a commotion at the Carnival Noir

Come and follow me, put on your finery
Explore the mystery of the Carnival Noir
It's a peepshow, a burlesque, a freak show
A unique show at the Carnival Noir
