Carnival by Natalie Merchant from "Tigerlily"
Well I've walked these, streets a virtual stage it seemed to me
make-up on their face actors took their place next to me.
Well I've walked these streets in a Carnival of sites to see
All the cheap thrill seekers the vendors and the dealers
they crowded around me
Have been blind , have I been lost
Inside myself and my own mind
Hypnotize Mesmerize
by what my eyes have seen
I've walked these streets in a spectacle of wealth and poverty
In the diamond market the scarlet welcome carpet
they've laid, just rolled out for me
and I 've walked these streets in the madhouse asylum they can be
where a wild and misfit profit, a traffic island star
and he raves of saving me
Have I been wrong have I been wise
to shut my eyes and play along
Hypnotized, Paralyzed
by what my eyes have found
By what my eyes have seen, What they have seen
(SOLO)

Have been blind , have I been lost
Have I been wrong have I been wise
Have I been strong, Have I been...
Hypnotized, Mesmerized
By what my eyes have found
In that great street carnival
In that Carnival
