Dandy Warhols, The - The Autumn Carnival Lyrics






You come around to the autumn carnival (ooo)
It's glowing like a jack-o-latern on the hill (ooo)
You should be younger now than you were then
Trading silver for a thrill
You come around to the autumn carnival (ooo)

There is a fog in the hall of mirrors (ooo)
The ghost of [?] has jumped the track
Like a carousel which is turning back
Create all the things that you lack
You can go there if you need
And you can surely fix you gauranteed

Ferris wheel unshadows and shatters [?] (ooo)
Across the ground into the eyes of the innocent (ooo)
The carnie spits at the waxing moon
And all that hell that was gone too soon
You can go there if you need
And it will surely fix you gauranteed

Here comes the rain so you move inside (ooo)
There is no compass, there is no guide (ooo)
And is no mask behind which to hide
You come around to the autumn carnival
You come around to the autumn carnival

And you can take it with you if you need
'cuz it will surely fix you gauranteed

You come around to the autumn carnival

Dandy Warhols, The The Autumn Carnival Comments
  1. J.... ....

    This is my lo-key favorite dandy warhols song

  2. I.... B....

    Blackpool, the cold sad side of England: a tower, a wheel, some mermaid-shaped illuminations on the promenade.
    And a city center full of shops permanently closed in a post-apocalyptic scenario.
    It was so back in 2013, I hope that in the meantime the city has improved a little.

  3. K.... R....

    My grandfather grew up just inland from Blackpool he would tell me about going there as a kid, Man I’m glad they moved to California!

  4. J.... S....

    Check out Damon Albarn GTBTQ new Album inspired by Blackpool, gig on North Pier pictured on video

  5. r.... d....

    dandy rules since the first album .alternative music sound, great influences and a punk rock style. a video5 stars,punk rules ever

  6. S.... P....

    Yes, the Co-Writer here is David (J) Haskins of Bauhaus and Love and Rockets, very cool tune indeed

  7. J.... S....

    Captures where I grew up beautifully, Song and video. My fav. Dandy's song thank you. A film called Funny Bones captures earlier weird Blackpool also. Again stunning song and video.

    J.... S....

  12. T.... ....

    pretty sure Ken Loach would like this vid

  13. b.... ....

    It's about the book Something Wicked This Way Comes. The fog in the house of mirrors, the carousel turning back making people younger, all references.

    b.... ....

    Its about something deeper than that

  14. B.... P....

    That looks a lot like the shit hole that is Blackpool. Great video.

    B.... P....

    The coolest place on earth! Not for softies mind:)

  15. K.... ....

    And your interpretation of the song is?

  16. b.... ....

    It took me forever to figure out what the lyrics were about. When it hit me I was like, "Dude, why didn't I realize that before?"

    b.... ....

    Blackpool in the dead of winter when its all closed, its a weird place. Love Blackpool
