Lyrics

CARNIVAL ATTRACTION

Carnival filled with dizzying lights
Unwinnable games and unusual sights
Three-card Monty and a magic trick
Deep-fried something served on a stick
A brief moment of satisfaction
Carnival attraction a fleeting distraction

Love ain't a carnival attraction
Not just a bit of carnal reaction
Not just a moment of satisfaction
Love ain't a carnival attraction

Carnival ride goes side to side
Round and round and upside down
When the ride comes to a stop
See the facade, a cheap stage prop
Rickety rides a hint at danger
Attraction of these newfound strangers

Love ain't a carnival attraction
Not just a bit of carnal reaction
Not just a moment of satisfaction
Love ain't a carnival attraction
Love ain't a carnival attraction

(solo)

Love ain't a carnival attraction
Not just a bit of carnal reaction
Not just a moment of satisfaction
Love ain't a carnival attraction
Love ain't a carnival attraction

Carnival attraction seemed so grand
But it's just a one-night stand
Build the carnival up, then tear it down
Attractions go from town to town
A memory that's a fading glory
End of a very short sad story

Love ain't a carnival attraction
Not just a bit of carnal reaction
Not just a moment of satisfaction
Love ain't a carnival attraction
Love ain't a carnival attraction
Love ain't a carnival attraction
