the alternative - caroline's carnival lyrics

“be back in five minutes,” mother warns
but the carnival’s just begun
a stranger holds her hand and shows her the merry_go_round and round
spinning, slowly, slowly
faster and faster
caroline’s eyes shine in childish delight
faster and faster
she takes her last ride on the merry_go_round of life

the carnival’s over, lie down for l_st
later, eyes stare from a putrefying face
what promises led you to this watery grave?
little girl’s bodies usеd, abused
media love it, sеnsation of the day
next to ‘luscious lucy’
p_rnographic dilemma while mother’s tears burn
p_rnographic dilemma while mother’s tears burn

suburban children in a make_believe world
’till one is taken for phallic amus_m_nt
young body torn and bleeding
but this one’s a boy child
potential man, potential rapist is raped
media shocked in a different dilemma
what filthy perverts enact such crimes?
rewards are offered, the hunt is on
protect the male children from shame like this
caroline’s forgotten, but mother’s tears burn
caroline’s forgotten, but mother’s tears burn
listen a while, just listen, to the screams of little girls incestuously loved, or lying dead on the common. hear the women out alone at night, hear the sobs of battered women, hear their bones break. but one little boy reaps the sympathy of millions _ he’s alive, isn’t he? though his suffering was unjustified
if one s_xual assault is worthy of this kind of publicity, stirring anger and disgust for this boy child’s assailants, then each and every s_xual and violent assault should be given equal notoriety
but only mother’s tears burn for caroline
