[Verse] Step right up Ladies and gents Gather near Welcome to the twisted carnival that's full of fear I'm Horatio Ignatius Grimley Your charismatic host A carnival barker and a vampire I'm the one you fear the most (ooh-yeah) [Verse] Come one Come all Witness the bizarre and strange I'll dazzle you with illusions that'll make you deranged Don't be afraid My dear Step into the night The dark cabaret awaits you With secrets to ignite (ooh-yeah) [Chorus] Welcome to the twisted masquerade (oh-oh) Where shadows dance And nightmares parade Step inside Don't be afraid (don't be afraid) In this grotesque symphony Your sanity will fade (fade away)
