The Laughing Man Lyrics
Mother Mary was a friend to me
she went down to the freak house
she never wanted to leave
so father fairy, he rises up to me
sent somebody here to get her back
so we can set her free
I used to know a place like 5th avenue in the 60s
I used to know a face, I heard they took the city
I heard they took the dark side of the moon
sometimes it aint so pretty you can assume Minor Mechanics
The deep sleep panics, elevator-operator, arch-enemy
blue-collar with the drunk drunk daughter
it's alchemy.
I used to know a place where we can go to make it happen
I used to know a face, woah
Mother Mary was a friend to me
she went down to the freak house
she never wanted to leave
so a Father Fairy, he rises up to me
Send somebody here to get her back
so we can set her free.
Save somebody, somebody said
Got get up and go
you're already dead
I look around, see myself
I look around don't see nobody else
Save somebody, somebody said
Got get up and go
I tried to think, but I don't know
You got to get up and g
she went down to the freak house
she never wanted to leave
so father fairy, he rises up to me
sent somebody here to get her back
so we can set her free
I used to know a face, I heard they took the city
I heard they took the dark side of the moon
The deep sleep panics, elevator-operator, arch-enemy
blue-collar with the drunk drunk daughter
it's alchemy.
I used to know a face, woah
she went down to the freak house
she never wanted to leave
so a Father Fairy, he rises up to me
Send somebody here to get her back
so we can set her free.
Got get up and go
you're already dead
I look around, see myself
I look around don't see nobody else
Got get up and go
I tried to think, but I don't know
You got to get up and g

"The Laughing Man" is a short story by J.D. Salinger, who wrote The Catcher in the Rye.
its a good song, it always reminds me of hte HBO show Carnivale, with the whole reference to "freakshow" and i have no clue to what its about, anyone can help?
I think basically this means life keeps moving and goes on, no matter what happens in life.-its a basic principle, but it may not be that easy.
