Testi

Ticket in my pocket, don't remember buying Number on the corner, somebody else's hand
Right in the gate, says two for one Nobody at the stand, the little man behind
The glass Keeps waving with his hand, I wave back
Loudspeaker clears his throat, trying not to laugh
With the girl from room 13, please report to the staff
I don't have a room 13, at least I didn't
The lights don't know we're closed, come on, take a seat
There's something in the ticket booth that keeps remembering me
Round and round, don't look down, hear that little bell
If you came here looking for heaven and you took the wrong carousel
Ding, ding, next one smile
Next one smile
Ding, ding, next one smile
Nurse at the doorway, counting every head
Ask me if I'm feeling well, I ask her if she's dead
Doesn't find it funny, doesn't even blink
Points me down the hallway, tells me where not to think
Mirror at the corner, blanket on the glass
I hear somebody breathing every time I walk past
Red instruction painted underneath the light
If the carousel stops, don't get off tonight
Loudspeaker clears his throat, knows me by my name
Your appointment is at midnight, don't make us ask again
I laugh because I never made an appointment here
But somebody checked me in
The lights don't know we're closed, come on, take a seat
There's something in the ticket booth that keeps remembering me
Round and round, don't look down, hear that little bell
If you came here looking for heaven and you took the wrong carousel
Ding, ding, next one smile
Ding, ding, next one smile
Someone left a present sitting underneath my chair
Wrapped in faded paper with my initials there
Shouldn't open presents from a place that knows my name
Open it anyway, inside a photograph of everybody here
Nurse, ticket man, doctor by the gate
Girl beside the carousel who looks a lot like me
Except she's standing behind the camera
Turn the photograph around, 1978
My name on the back and underneath, please don't let her leave
Gate is locked, lights turning, lights warm
Someone's screaming loud, speaker says
Would our hostess please report to the floor
I know that voice, it's mine
Walk into the ticket booth, man is gone
Red coat hanging on the chair, I put it on
Press the bell beneath the counter, every light comes on
The lights don't know we're closed, come on, take a seat
There's something in the ticket booth that keeps remembering me
Round and round, don't look down, hear that little bell
If you came here looking for heaven, you took the wrong carousel
The lights don't know we're closed and neither do I
If you bought yourself a ticket, baby, don't ask why
Round and round, don't look down, everybody knows the spell
If you came here looking for heaven, you took the wrong carousel
Ding, ding, next one, smile
Ding, ding, next one, smile
Ding, ding, next one, smile
Ding, ding, next one, smile
Thank you for coming
We're open all night
