[Intro – distorted feedback, heavy drum kick] Welcome to the circus in the dark Watch me light the city with a spark [Verse 1 – chugging guitar riff] Pigtails dyed in candy pink and blue I’ve got a special treat in store for you Trading in my coat for a wooden bat Tell me what you think of a girl like that Smudged red lipstick and a wild-eyed stare I’m the living image of your worst nightmare [Chorus – explosive power chords] I’m Gotham’s gorgeous little psycho now Watch the whole world take a final bow Breaking all the rules just for the fun The carnival of madness has begun Daddy’s little monster on the loose Tightening the knot and the golden noose [Verse 2 – driving bassline] Diamonds on my neck and spikes on my wrist Everything I touch gets a wicked twist Laughter echoing through the alleyways Lost inside the neon purple haze I don’t need a hero to save my soul I’m the one who’s finally in control [Chorus – high energy] I’m Gotham’s gorgeous little psycho now Watch the whole world take a final bow Breaking all the rules just for the fun The carnival of madness has begun Daddy’s little monster on the loose Tightening the knot and the golden noose [Bridge – half-time tempo, eerie vocals] Once I had a name and a quiet life Before I cut the world with a jagged knife Now the voices scream and they call for more Kicking down the hinges of the heavy door [Interlude – shredding guitar solo] (Instrumental Solo) [Climax – maximum volume, crashing cymbals] Swing the bat and watch the glass shatter In this crazy world nothing else will matter Dancing on the edge of the broken street Making every moment feel so bittersweet [Final Chorus – layered vocals, stadium sound] I’m Gotham’s gorgeous little psycho now Watch the whole world take a final bow Breaking all the rules just for the fun The carnival of madness has begun Daddy’s little monster on the loose Tightening the knot and the golden noose [Outro – fading guitar, manic laughter] Goodnight Gotham sleep with one eye wide There’s nowhere left for you to run and hide
