Que te vaya bien Miss Carrusel

GOODBYE MISS CAROUSEL

At the fair it's time to close
Your horses stop spinning
You can pick up your love until tomorrow
But a man in gray is still there
He has something and wants something from you
Goodbye, Miss Carousel
I don't have a say here anymore

You'll come back when you're clean
And I'm not needed by you
I'll shout with pride
Your name on the platform

And people here can tell you
That whoever wants to achieve something
Will do it with sweat and hard work
But in the city no one knows more
Than she who sees them spin
You play your part, Miss Carousel
They will play theirs

You'll come back (...)

And you want to hide your fur mattress
But how many have slept in it today
And how many more will sleep in it tomorrow
And when the sun enters your room
You'll look for water and soap
And you'll scrub your skin, Miss Carousel
But it won't help

You'll come back (...)

And another night you'll want to dream
But the purest loneliness
Is not cured with champagne and cocaine
A man from the south will dim the light
You'll play your luck heads or tails
I know it sounds cruel, Miss Carousel
But this is your life

And you swear once again that you don't want to wake up
Dead thirsty
And with a dagger plunged into your chest
It's night and with a faint voice
You'll ask me what day it is
And you'll want to come back, Miss Carousel
To undo what's done

You'll come back (...)

And I promise you that if I see you again
So broken I'll try to do
The impossible to put a smile on you
But once again you'll disappear
And even if someone might wonder
I'll know how to understand, Miss Carousel
I'll know how to understand your rush

You'll come back (...)
