The Wraith:Shangri-La

Insane Clown Posse The Wraith:Shangri-La Lyrics
1.The Intro

A presence can be felt by those woho have followed thy epic saga
as told by the Insane Clown Posse

It is a presence that is synonymous with thy crumbling of time
itself.
Thus emerges a being so powerful that he can exist between the
land of the living and that of the dead.
He goes by many names but is known to thy living only as thy
Wraith.
He walks upon worlds forgotten, and descends from the heavens;
Fade into gray to witness thy death of all mortal things.
So that he may guide thy departed upon the path that they have
chosen (Shangri-La)
Here is the story of thy path to Shangri-La,
The 6th Joker's Card. Only now will we truly understand thy
meaning of thy saga,
For this saga all along, each Joker's Card is none other than...
The echo of our lives.


2.Walk Into Thy Light

Carney:Hurry up, show's startin'!

Random Patron:Man, I can't believe they still having
it, I better get my butt in there right now!

Thy Ring Leader:
Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the sensational and amazing
Carnival of Carnage!
They said it wouldn't happen, they said it wouldn't last
But boys and girls and everyone we got a carnival for that ass
Tens of thousands of freak sideshows and fools
A carnival who together has lived by their own rules!

(Shaggy 2 Dope):
We looked into thy stars, foretold everyone
somethin' dark and wicked this way comes.
We told of oddities, crawling from the dark
and a carnival which we can all belong!
I dwell upon thy streets, and I can tell you this
I see some circus Juggalo shit goin' on.
People drawn together, by rare and scrubby music,
and we even gather once a year to PUT IT DOWN!

(Chorus):
With tilt-a-whirls and merry-goes,
and carnivals of Faygo,
we're just tryin' to tell you all about the light, right.
Now all the Joker Cards have fallen with spectacular array
so when the Wraith is callin', walk into the light, right.

(Violent J):
I hold a bloody axe, dress in hatchet red,
we speak languages people don't understand.
I send Faygos via punt it clear across the stadium
in fashion only fuckin' Juggalos could ever demand!
I got ninjas in my backyard wearin' Anybody Killa paint,
and I'm thinkin' what the fuck is goin' on? (What the fuck is
goin' on)
Then I see the platinum on the wall and I realize the carnival's
been right here all along
so let's bring it on!

(Chorus)

(Shaggy 2 Dope & Violent J):
Thy crows have overlooked, we gave you all they gave
Thy carousel will spin on through the night (Through the night!)
In Oz I'd be the wizard, because I'm overwhelmed
but we just hope the Joker Cards will point you out to the
light,
So you'll be tight!

(Chorus)


3.Welcome To Thy Show

(Violent J & Shaggy 2 Dope):

Well hello, boys and girls, c'mon in see the show
It's the mystical, magical, great Dark Carnival
Don't bother looking for parking, get rid of it
It ain't like you ever coming back, you fuckin' idiot!
The Carnival emerges only when you about to die
Now muthafucker you are dead in the sky
So come and put your soul around the Murder Go Round
And we'll strap you down, and swing you into oblivion

I gotta spike for your neck with my ninja blowgun
I be thy Juggalada Don Dada Lada Shogun
I swings my sword down and split you in two
Before you even fall, I bitch smack both of you
Welcome to our Carnival, 50,000 Juggalos
Freaks and weirdos, and killers at our shows
I'm just glad we down with 'em, hate to be y'all
And have a Juggalo shatter my skull, for thy Carnival
