Sunshine + Gasoline Lyrics & Chords By Godspeed You! Black Emperor
MURRAY OSTRIL:
"Oh yeah, all kinds of them...everybody seemed to uh, that's right they're just walkin' around doin' nothin', even on their own...play with the children, kid around. Anybody that - thatthe son wasn't ashamed to walk out the way they was, who had a tattoo, or the fat lady and the bareheaded person, or the alligator skin...that wouldn't be odd, they had so many odder things down there.
But that goes out to whatever carnival all over the world, all over the countries. And a lot of freakof natures were put into it. Used to call them "geeks." A "geek" was a person who was an alcoholic or on drugs. And they put 'em in a cage, and he was a wild-man. But they stopped that in the cities and they...but the carnival got traveled in the country...they still had the "geeks." They'd all come pay money to see a man, like an animal in a cage.
But uh, it wasn't done because it was uh uh uh a playground...you see, some for the first time were amazed...and you remember it was part of the sideshow. But today they got so many "geeks" out there...that they're actually running amongst the public, not in a cage where they should be.
They're runnin' in the street amongst us all..."
