lyrics

CIRCLE OF FREAKS

katrina stepped over to the baroom door
in the avenue
a dime for a plenty
she counted her change in twos
and glared at the fool on the floor
with his white ham radio
receptive to promise
respect, otherwise she'd go

born from a circle
she'd fly by night in the august wind
to run with the freaks
in her freakshow babylon
her cause was for plenty
but her case was a curse of the blues
dividing her conquest
she left without any excuse

fueled by her options
she rejected the pardon and fled
this circle of freaks
reflect upon what she said
and wynton keeps howling
at the churchbell chime
in the afternoon
she'd kneel by her alter
and gaze though an empty room
