lyrics
Well I went to town the other day just to take a look around
A crowd of people in the street seemed there to party down
I went to see what was happening, but much to my chagrin
They were not very nice to me when I tried to join in
The first guy that I talked to punched me in the face
And said that I did not deserve to be part of the human race
It was an asshole carnival, asshole carnival, asshole carnival
It was an asshole carnival, asshole carnival, asshole carnival
They might have come here to have fun, but don't think they're your pal
Not at the asshole carnival, asshole carnival, asshole carnival
I'd never seen so many assholes gathered in one crowd
As you can quite imagine, the noise was pretty loud
They pushed each other out of the way just to pass the time
While on the sidelines some of them stood by to sneer and whine
And fights broke out all over the place between assholes big and small
It was unlike any carnival I have ever been to at all
It was an asshole carnival, asshole carnival, asshole carnival
It was an asshole carnival, asshole carnival, asshole carnival
They might have come here to have fun, but don't think they're your pal
Not at the asshole carnival, asshole carnival, asshole carnival
I was surprised when some asshole asked to join me at the bar
We had some drinks and a friendly chat, which seemed a bit bizarre
Then he went to the bathroom and stiffed me with the tab
And I found out he told all the girls at the club I had a bad case of the crabs
So if you go into town my friends, and assholes line the streets
Don't try to enjoy yourself- instead, remain discreet
Don't join the asshole carnival, asshole carnival, asshole carnival
Don't join the asshole carnival, asshole carnival, asshole carnival
They might have come here to have fun, but don't think they're your pal
Not at the asshole carnival, asshole carnival, asshole carnival
