Ring the bells!
Oh, ring the bells!
Open the curtains and show them Hell
The twisted figures in bottled form
The weird and grotesque that they will scorn
Part them with a penny fair
and show them a lock of Medusa’s hair
The two-headed snake
The sword-eating man
The boy who has claws for hands
Would they still look with twisted glee
If I were them and they were me?
