Freak Show

Written by: Nightmare Sora


[Spoken]

Step right up, step right up

Five pounds to see the freak show.

We got the gothic girl who will terrify you,

We got the emo boy that will depress you.

We got the homosexual man that will sicken you,

And the chav girl who will abuse you.

We got all these and more

Waiting for you to laugh at them.

Waiting for you to laugh at geeky girl

Waiting for you to laugh at the boy with no friends.

So step inside and don’t feel bad.

They’re here for your entertainment.


[Sung] 

Oh-ohoh-oh

We’re at the freak show

Oh-ohoh-oh

We’re at the freak show

 

Freak-ah, Freak-ah, Freak-ah

Freak-ah, Freak-ah

We’re at the freak show

Freak-ah, Freak-ah, Freak-ah

Freak-ah, Freak-ah

We’re at the freak show

 

I...

Know that I’m different

And I...

Know that it’s right

But people...

They don’t understand

What...

Goes through my mind at night

 

They don’t care

They can’t see

The light side of me

They will laugh

They will joke

‘Cause they don’t even know me

 

[Chorus]

Come to the freak show

You won’t believe your eyes

You won’t believe your eyes

When you see yourself

In front of the mirror

Come to the freak show

You won’t believe your eyes

We’re all freaks and don’t you know it

Yeah yeah

We’re all freaks and don’t you know it

 

Oh-ohoh-oh

We’re at the freak show

Oh-ohoh-oh

We’re at the freak show

 

Freak-ah, Freak-ah, Freak-ah

Freak-ah, Freak-ah

We’re at the freak show

 

When...

When you laugh at me

I...

Let the anger build up

Then you...

Give me one final push

Until I...

Break up inside

 

You don’t care

You can’t see

What your words, do to me

You will laugh

You will joke

‘Cause you don’t even know me

 

[Chorus]

Come to the freak show

You won’t believe your eyes

You won’t believe your eyes

When you see yourself

In front of the mirror

Come to the freak show

You won’t believe your eyes

We’re all freaks and don’t you know it

Yeah yeah

We’re all freaks and don’t you know it

 

[Instrumental]

 

[Middle 8]

We...

We are freaks of nature

We will come alive

Stick to our stereotype

We...

We are freaks of the world

Because we are different

Because we’re individual

 

[Chorus]

Come to the freak show

You won’t believe your eyes

You won’t believe your eyes

When you see yourself

In front of the mirror

Come to the freak show

You won’t believe your eyes

We’re all freaks and don’t you know it

Yeah yeah

We’re all freaks and don’t you know it

We’re all freaks and don’t you know it

Yeah yeah

We’re all freaks and don’t you know it

 

Freak-ah, Freak-ah, Freak-ah

Freak-ah, Freak-ah

We’re at the freak show

Freak-ah, Freak-ah, Freak-ah

Freak-ah, Freak-ah

I’m individual
