Karn Evil 9 First Impression, Part 2 Songtext
von Emerson, Lake & Palmer

Welcome back, my friends
To the show that never ends
We′re so glad you could attend
Come inside, come inside

There behind a glass
Stands a real blade of grass
Be careful as you pass
Move along, move along

Come inside, the show's about to start
Guaranteed to blow your head apart
Rest assured you′ll get your money's worth
The greatest show in Heaven, Hell or Earth

You've got to see the show
It′s a dynamo
You′ve got to see the show
It's rock and roll


Right before your eyes we pull laughter from the skies
And he laughs until he cries then he dies then he dies
Come inside the show′s about to start
Guaranteed to blow your head apart

You gotta see the show
It's a dynamo
You gotta see the show
It′s rock and roll

Soon the Gypsy Queen
In a glaze of Vaseline
Will perform on guillotine
What a scene, what a scene

Next upon the stand
Will you please extend a hand
To Alexander's Ragtime Band
Dixie land, dixie land
Roll up, roll up, roll up, see the show

Performing on a stool
We′ve a sight to make you drool
Seven virgins and a mule
Keep it cool, keep it cool


We would like it to be known
The exhibits that were shown
Were exclusively our own
All our own, all our own

Come and see the show
Come and see the show
Come and see the show

See the show
