A Carnival of Freaks


The monkey's praying, the baby is asleep and the monk goes on a trip.

Grandma's shouting, playing free, under a palm tree.

A lot of elephants behind me, speeding for a cup of tea.

Yellow circles on the ground, someone gets the black cat bound.

A mad woman barks like a dog, while a mad man jumps like a frog.

A carnival of freaks running at dusk, and the officer doesn't perform his task.
