Lyrics
Mr. Barnum
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Say it's easy to forget your apologies.
Make your conscience relinquish its guilt.
This is not Sunday mass or a holiday.
Look me in the eyes and you'll see.
Mr. Barnum clutching his cane.
Mr. Barnum breaks you in his game.
Never cross examined or ever occupied.
Making cracks in the mirror as he smiles.
He always listens for suicide and destruction.
He greets your stigma with aggression vicious and cannibalistic.
Mr. Barnum clutches his cane.
Mr. Barnum breaks you in his game.
Mr. Barnum calls to you.
