Marilyn Manson
"Dope Hat"


I peek into the hole, I struggle for control 
The children love the show, 
but they fail to see the anguish in my eyes 
Fail to see the anguish in my eyes 
I scratch around the brim, I let my mind give in 
The crowd begins to grin, 
but they seem to scream when darkness fills my eyes 
Seem to scream when darkness fills my eyes, it's no surprise 
Fail to see the tragic, turn it into magic 
My big top tricks will always make you happy, 
but we all know the hat is wearing me 
My bag is in the hat, it's filled with this and that 
My vision's getting fat, the rabbit's just a monkey in disguise 
Stars and pills and needles dance before our eyes 
They will bite the hand if it is slower than 
the quickness of their scrutinizing eyes 
Fail to see the tragic, turn it into magic 
My big top tricks will always make you happy, 
but we all know the hat is wearing me 
Chicanery will always make you happy, 
but we all know the hat is wearing me
