Lyrics:
Well, I've walked these streets A virtual stage, it seemed to me Makeup on their faces Actors took their places next to me Well, I've walked these streets In a carnival, of sights to see All the cheap thrill seekers vendors and the dealers They crowded around me Have I been blind, have I been lost Inside myself and my own mind Hypnotized, mesmerized by what my eyes have seen? Well, I've walked these streets In a spectacle of wealth and poverty In the diamond markets the scarlet welcome carpet That they just rolled out for me And I've walked these streets In the madhouse asylum they can be Where a wild-eyed misfit prophet On a traffic island stopped and he raved of saving me Have I been wrong, have I been wise To shut my eyes and play along Hypnotized, paralyzed by what my eyes have found By what my eyes have seen, what do you see? Have I been blind, have I been lost Have I been wrong, have I been wise Have I been strong Have I been hypnotized, mesmerized By what my eyes have found In that great street carnival, in that carnival
