In the heart of the night She smiles like Mardi Gras Spinning in a dizzy haze Her circus head giggles It's a friendly disease Catching colors from the air
So with your hands upon the hips Of the dancing flesh She's a carnival And when it's lip to lip In a surprise-time kiss She's a carnival She's a carnival She's a carnival
Mosaic eye, gypsy eye Glowing as it dazzles She's a portrait of a poison For you to quench your thirst A portrait of a poison
So with your hands upon the hips Of the dancing flesh She's a carnival And when it's lip to lip In a surprise-time kiss She's a carnival She's a carnival She's a carnival
