ALL THE NOISE OF THE FAIR
©Trev Teasdel, Coventry June 1971


Chorus
All the noise of the fair
All the noise of the fair
All the noise of the fair


Roll up and try your luck
Win a fish and pick a straw
Take a ride on a heartbreak roller-coaster.


What’s she doing in another man’s arms?
What’s she doing in another man’s arms?
What the hell she doing in another man’s arms?


I feel like a derelict house
Rubble tumbled tot he ground
I feel like a derelict house
Rubble tumbled to the ground.
She walks past like she could not care
No use me pretending that she’s not there.


All the pain of the fair
All the pain of the fair
All the pain of the fair.


Shoot your blues away on a sixpenny shotgun
Win a coconut and blow your mind.
I wander by in my helter skelter confusion
ponder at the scenes life puts me through.


All the hell of the fair
All the hell of the fair
All the hell of the fair.


The girl he loves, loves another man
Who is loved by another girl that he don’t love.
And I have felt the same sometime
Yes I have felt the pain sometime.


Whoosh bam bang goes the rocket!
Click bang ping cries the pellet
Blows against my head
Blows against my head


All the hell of the fair
All the hell of the fair
All the hell of the fair.
