B D A E
At precisely eight-o-five
G Bb F Ab
Doctor Frederick von Meier
B D A E
Will attempt his famous dive
G Bb F E
Through a solid sheet of luminescent fire
B D A E
In the center of the ring
G Bb F Ab
They are torturing a bear
B D A E
And although he cannot sing
G Bb F E
They can make him whistle Londondderry Air
C A
And the price is right,
Bb A B A B A
The cost of one admission is your mind
B D A E
We shall shortly institute
G Bb F Ab
A synopticon of fear
B D A E
While it's painful, it will suit
G Bb F E
Many customers whose appetities are queer
B D A E
Or for those who wish to pay
G Bb F Ab
There are children you can bleed
B D A E
In a most peculiar way
G Bb F E
We can give you all the instruments you'll need
C A
And the price is right,
Bb A B A B A
The cost of one admission is your mind
B D A E
If you're harder yet to serve
G Bb F Ab
We have most delightful dreams
B D A E
Our recorders will preserve
G Bb F E
The intensity and passion of your screams
B D A E
For we only aim to please
G Bb F Ab
It's our customers who gain
B D A E
As their appetities increase
G Bb F E
They must come to us for pleasure and for pain
C A
And the price is right,
Bb A B
The cost of one admission is your mind.
Very underrated psychedelic song. Hope you enjoy.
