I've got nothing better to post than "I can't wait for the weekend!", so I'll post another Obscurity!
From Whiskey For The Holy Ghost by Mark Lanegan, we have:
Carnival
Where in the world have you been
It's as strnage as I've ever lived
So you're comin' along to the side show
I'll be fallin' all over like dominoes
For girls that are dead in their eyes
They're all standin' around being hypnotised
And walkin' me back to the firin' line
Ya smile to get in the door
Ya can't keep it closed anymore
Tell your ma that you've gone to the freak show
I'm crawlin' all over the carnival
Just a scratch in a stitch in a skin
I'm moanin' for more of the medicine
In the mornin' you're wonderin' where you been
Just turnin' your back to the ghost
And tryin' to look like you just might know
That all of the good that you've seen
Just went down and into the drain
Oh kids am I straight for now
In the mornin' I'm gonna find it on out
It's as strange as I've ever seen
The girls are dead in their eyes
Just standin' around like they're hypnotised
Who'll follow me back to the freak show
I'm crawlin' all over the carnival
And I am gone
The kid's in a straight out for now
In the mornin' I'm wanna find it all out
What in the world can it be
It's as strange as I've ever seen
The girls are dead in their eyes
Just standin' around like they're hypnotised
Who'll follow me back to the freak show
I'm crawlin' all over the carnival
And I'm gone

Ah, that's where I heard the name. Thanks for the info, and thanks for jumping in with your addition to Season Two.

It's all about the RHCPs for me lately. Haven't listened to any of the old school albums in a long while. So I threw Californication into the mix with Uplift Mofo Party Plan and all was well. I love that album.
