[Intro]
This is a song about the seedy underbelly of the carnival
The part that only the kids know about
This is a song about 16 year old girls giving carnies head
For free rides and hits of pot
[Bridge]
I want to go
I want to go
I want to go
[Verse 1]
I want to go to the carnival
But I know it'll cost $16, now
I want to go to the carnival
But I know it'll cost me $16, now
[Chorus]
Round, round, round
Round, round, round
[Post-Chorus]
I'll win that Motley Crue mirror
If it fucking kills me
[Verse 2]
Gonna lose $20 while I'm there
See the girl with the feathered hair
Wearing plastic, not real leather
Boots go way up to there, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Round, round, round
Round, round, round
[Post-Chorus]
It's by the Lacey mall
That's where you'll find me, yeah
