PSYCHO CIRCUS (Paul Stanley/Curt Cuomo)

"Alright Indianapolis. You wanted the best, you got the best. The hottest band in the world...KISS."

Yeah

Hello
Here I am, here we are, we are one
I've been waiting for this night to come
So get up
Now it's time for me to take my place
The make-up runnin' down my face
We're exiles from the human race

Chorus
You're in the psy
The psycho circus
The psy
The psycho circus
And I say "Welcome to the show"

I've been waitin' here to be your guide
So come
Reveal the secrets that you keep inside
So get up
No one leaves until the night is done
The amplifiers start to hum
The carnival has just begun

Repeat Chorus
"Welcome to the show."
To the show
Welcome to the show
"Let me hear you."
The show

I, I've been waiting here to be your guide
So come
Reveal the secrets that you keep inside
Step up
No one leaves until the night is done
The amplifiers start to hum
The carnival has just begun

You're in the psy
The psycho circus
The psy
The psycho circus
The psy
The psycho circus
The psy
The psycho circus
And I say "Welcome to the show"
Welcome to the show
Welcome to the show
"Let me see your hands Indianapolis."


LET ME GO, ROCK 'N ROLL (Gene Simmons/Paul Stanley)

Yeah, yeah
"Let me hear you."

Baby gets tired, everybody knows
Your mother tells you, baby has to show, yeah, yeah, yeah
Let me go

'Cause baby's got the feelin'
Baby wants a show
Baby won't you tell me
Baby, rock 'n roll, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
"I like it."

I never knew I needed a baby like you
I never knew I needed you like I do, yeah, yeah, yeah
Let me go

'Cause baby's got the feelin'
Baby wants a show
Baby won't you tell me
Baby, rock 'n roll, yeah, yeah
Ooh

"Clap your hands. Ooh."

You try so hard to please, you get me hard you know
Baby, won't you squeeze, let me go, let me go
Let me go

'Cause baby's got the feelin'
Baby wants a show
Baby won't you tell me
Baby, rock 'n roll, yeah, yeah
"One more time."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah."
"Indianapolis, who loves you? Who mean you can't rock and roll?"

"Man. Everybody's havin' a great time?"

INTO THE VOID (Ace Frehley/Karl Cochran)

"Gonna do a song, this comes of Psycho-Circus. And I say Welcome to the, welcome to the show. Ace is gonna sing this next one, he's gonna tell you what it's called."
"I'll sing to ya, Into The Void. One, two."

I'm losing power and I don't know why
Not really sure if I'll live or die
I wanna leave but I can't get away

It's a strange sensation
I'm all alone being by myself
I feel this gravitation
Caught like a magnet and I'm being pulled

Into the void
Wanna get away, get away
Into the void
My head is spinnin', spinnin' me 'round, 'round
Into the void
It's gettin', gettin' me stronger
Into the void

Like I'm being pulled into a black hole
Into the void

This crazy feeling's screwing with my head
I'm overloaded and my gauges are red
State of confusion's got a hold on me

I feel a hesitation
I'm being drawn, falling right off the track
Don't like this situation
Caught like a magnet and I'm being pulled

Into the void
I wanna get away, get away
Into the void
It's briging, brigring me down
Into the void
Spinnin', spinnin' me 'round, 'round
Into the void
Feels like I'm being pulled into a black hole
Into the void
Down, down, down

Into the void
I wanna get away, get away
Into the void
It's spinnin', spinnin' me 'round, 'round
Into the void
This force is getting, getting me stronger
Into the void
It's bringing me, bringing me, down, down, down, down
Into the void
Get away, get away
Into the void
Feels like I'm being pulled into a black hole
Into the void

"This next one's gonna bring us into the year 2000."

"How about it people? Ace Frehley on lead guitar."


WITHIN (Gene Simmons)

"Everybody's having a good time? Good."

Cry without tears
See without sight
Night without day
And every day's black as the night

Fly without wings
Feel without touch
Touch without feel
And everywhere nothing is real, yeah

Chorus
I wanna see from within
I wanna be where I've been
I know a truth from a lie
I wanna live 'fore I die

Life without death
World without end
Sleep without dreams
Everyday's not what it seems

I want somethin' more than you'll know
Follow myself and go where you can never go
And I see though my eyes are closed

Repeat Chorus

Inside you without your blessing
Inside you is me confessing
Outside you is outside me
And inside there is no guarantee, no

Yeah

Yeah, yeah

Repeat Chorus

See from within
I wanna be where I've been
I know a truth from a lie
I wanna live 'fore I die

"I wanna see from within."

"How about it? Peter Criss on the drums."
"Alright."


100,000 YEARS (Gene Simmons/Paul Stanley)

"Alright."

Sorry to have taken so long
Must have been a bitch while I was gone
You mind if I sit down for a while
Reaquint yourself with my style

How could you have waited so long
Must have been a bitch while I was gone
All this time you put up with fear
For a hundread thousand years

Sorry to have taken so long
Must have been a bitch while I was gone
All this time you put up with fear
For a hundread thousand years

Baby, won't you let me
I think I'm goin' out of my head
I'm just about to, ohh yeah, oh yeah

"Indianapolis. I got a question for you. Goes like this. Do you feel right? Do you feel right? Do you feel right? Yeah, yeah. Do you feel alright? I wanna know. Come on, ah yeah."

Sorry to have taken so long
Must have been a bitch while I was gone
Mind if I sit down for a while, would you babe
Reaquint yourself with my style


BLACK DIAMOND (Paul Stanley)

"Are you havin' a good time tonight?"

Out on the street for a livin'
Pictures only begun, ooh, ooh, ooh
Got you under their thumb
"One, two, three, hit it."

Out on the street for a livin'
Pictures only begun
Your day is sorrow and madness
Got you under their thumb

Chorus
Whoo, black diamond
Whoo, black diamond

Darkness will fall on the city
It seems to follow you too, ooh, ooh, ooh,
Although you don't ask for pity
There's nothin' that you can do

Repeat Chorus

Ohh, yeah

Out on the streets for a livin'
Pictures only begun, ooh, ooh, ooh
Your day is sorrow and madness
Peter, got you under his thumb

Whoo, black diamond, yeah, yeah
Whoo, black diamond

Quick Facts
With new live songs being released, the word will quickly start to spread, "Are these songs were really recorded live? Were they re-worked?" There's a lot of chances that all of those songs were re-worked, in what way, don't ask me, but the sound is too good for it. In order to get the special 6 songs CD you had to buy the Psycho-Circus album. Was only released in Germany but was quickly available overseas. No multimedia features on the 6 songs CD, a live video of a song could have been cool.
