Get the best of both worlds - an instant download of the whole five tracks from the EP *PLUS* a copy of the CD in the post - for the same price as the CD itself! Every penny goes directly to us the band and enables us to keep producing music.
This is the original and first CD we ever had made in 2008 - a rush job so we had some merchandise to sell while we toured with Mick Hucknall. There are VERY few left (50 at last count).
'Carnival' taken from Georgia Wonder's debut Hello Stranger EP
lyrics
There's a clown
And he's painting his face with a smile
But he's frowning inside all the while
Making plans for the show of his life
There's a light
That was turned off inside him one night
Extinguished and hidden and cold
But not out
Now the flame burns dark
Roll up roll up
Get down get down
The carnival is coming to town
The curtains up
The lights are down
The carnival is coming to town
People come from miles around
To come and see the show
Fireworks and candles
That everybody knows
And so it goes
There's a circus every day
And it really takes your breath away
There's a man
And he's trying as hard as he can
To believe what he's doing is right
After all he always draws a crowd
There's a sigh
As the carnival lights up the sky
And the crowd go their separate ways
No one shows, but everybody pays
Roll up roll up
Get down get down
The carnival is coming to town
The curtains up
The lights are down
The carnival is coming to town
People come from miles around
To come and see the show
Fireworks and candles
That everybody knows
And so it goes
There's a circus every day
And it really takes your breath away
You really should have been there
We laughed until we cried
They really brought the house down
But none of us survived
Roll up roll up roll up
The lights are down
The carnival is coming
The carnival is coming
The carnival is coming
The carnival is coming
The carnival is coming
It's coming...
