Music Was Saved Lyrics

If life is a carnival,
can I stay here a while
Nemesis rose,
and I feel I'm about to go down,
about to go down,

If love is a Ferris wheel,
can I see how I feel,
she's taking me up but she don't even care to go down,
care to go down,

Oh my friends we landed in December,
creating something for you to remember,
The rushes were made, and music was saved
One two three she's riding up to heaven
Four five six I'm wired up to eleven,
the rushes were made, and music was saved

Back on the ground again,
excuses are wearing thin,
they came with a bang but they're out with a whimper for now,
losing it now.

Remember when I was young,
trying to be someone,
A boy on his heels,
I was never the toast of the town,
look at me now.

Oh my friends we landed in December,
creating something for you to remember,
the rushes were made, and music was saved.
One two three she's riding up to heaven
Four five six I'm wired up to eleven,
the rushes were made, and music was saved

Oh my friends we landed in December,
creating something for you to remember,
The rushes were made, and music was saved yeah
One two three she's riding up to heaven
Four five six I'm wired up to eleven,
the rushes were made and music was saved,
music was saved.

There's several references to music/lyrics throughout -- I imagine there's plenty more I'm missing, considering "Music Was Saved" sounds like a fairly meta title.

"Riding up to heaven" seems like an obtuse reference to "Stairway to Heaven"; "Wired up to eleven" is an obvious Spinal Tap ref; "the rushes were made" I don't know, maybe a ref to the band Rush; "they came with a bang but they're out with a whimper for now" from T.S. Eliot's "The Hollow Men"... anything else?
