Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong!
I wanted the music to play on forever
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
I wanted the clown to be constantly clever
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
I bought the blue ribbons to tie up my hair
But I couldn't find anybody to care
The merry-go-round is beginning to slow now
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
The music has stopped and the children must go now
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
ย
I wanted to win all the fabulous treasures
Have I stayed too long at the fair? (At the fair)
I wanted to dance all the merriest measures
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
I bought me the ribbons, all shiny and new
But now I discover they're no longer new
The lights of the midway are fading above me
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
I'd better run home to the people who love me
For I've stayed too long at the fair (At the fair)
ย
I wanted to live in a carnival city
With laughter and love everywhere
I wanted my friends to be thrilling and witty
I wanted somebody to care
I found it was easy to capture success
But now I'd be willing to settle for less
The merry-go-round is beginning to taunt me
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
There's nothing to win and there's no one to want me
Have I stayed too long at the fair?
(Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, ah...)
