[00:00.06]I've walked these streets
[00:32.36]A virtual stage
[00:33.24]It seemed to me
[00:38.07]Make up on their faces
[00:40.59]Actors took their places next to me
[00:49.86]I've walked these streets in a carnival
[00:55.02]Of sights to see
[00:58.53]All the cheap thrill seekers
[01:01.02]The vendors and the dealers
[01:03.27]They crowded around me
[01:10.29]Have I been blind Have I been lost
[01:14.76]Inside my self and my own mind
[01:18.84]Hypnotized mesmerized
[01:20.70]By what my eyes have seen
[01:30.72]I've walked these streets
[01:33.33]In a spectacle of wealth and poverty
[01:39.75]In the diamond markets
[01:41.25]The scarlet welcome carpet
[01:44.07]That they just rolled out for me
[01:51.15]And I've walked these streets
[01:54.00]In the mad house asylum they can be
[01:59.46]Where a wild eyed misfit prophet
[02:02.19]On a traffic island stopped
[02:04.23]And he raved of saving me
[02:11.58]Have I been wrong Have I been wise
[02:15.99]To shut my eyes and play along
[02:20.16]Hypnotized mesmerized
[02:23.64]By what my eyes have found
[02:27.78]By what my eyes have seen
[02:34.44]By what they have seen
[03:17.97]Have I been wise Have I been weak
[03:25.56]Have I been strong Oh have I been strong
[03:36.03]If I've been hypnotized and mesmerized
[03:40.35]By what my eyes have found
[03:46.68]In that that great street carnival in that carnival
