Atop the wonder wheel
my feelings you will steal
inflated id and ego
if we fall please don’t let go
Coney Island baby
Will you love me maybe
I know i love you Mary
even though you’ll soon leave me
Atop the wonder wheel
All bleakness be concealed
though we fall victim to the
Unnecessary evil
How could you do this to me
You poisoned New York City
We spin around and around
Atop but soon hit the ground
Below the Wonder Wheel
I wait in line all alone
Two Nathen’s only for me
The mermaid kiss me softly
Coney Island baby
Oh How I miss you Mary
Or rather how you would be
Atop of New York City
Where is my wonder wheel?
Gone all of the appeal
For It was taken from me
By a demon so sweet
Brooklyn skyline so fine
Oh how I thought you’d mine
Throw my head in my hand
Break down a castle in sand
Atop the wonder wheel
my feelings you will steal
inflated id and ego
if we fall please don’t let go.
