The devil may smile with an angels face

A cat may be stolen of it's grace

They say it's just a matter of time and place

A man may be less than an animal

The antichrist write up the honor roll

The tightrope walker take the final fall

(At his house, in the bathroom, on a holiday, and that's in the news)

Oh, the things you see

Makes ignorance bliss for you and me, yeah,

When arrogance does publicity,

Smiling happily

It's a merry go round and around and around

The begging boy becomes the begging man

The zealot never saves the sacrificial lamb

And a child want's to know if the candyman can

Everybody want's the fancy car

And we've all been told not to run too far

But everybody wants to be a rock'n'roll star

Oh, the things you see

Makes arrogance seem the way to be, yeah,

When ignorance spreads conformity,

Smiling happily

It's a merry go round and around and around
