Lyrics:

[Violent J]
Ladies and gentlemen
Welcome to the greatest show on earth!
Congratulations, for you are all the lucky ones *gunshot*
You are the ones lucky enough to witness
The greatest attraction in the Dead Carnival's history
Only you, those in this very building
Will have the privilege of viewing
Two of the world's most savage, contained, and dangerous individuals
They are Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope
And yesssssss, they are here
We have them captured for your viewing enjoyment *gunshot*
So, are you ready?
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one
Welcome to the Joker's Gallery!

[Legz Diamond]
Ladies and gentlemen!
The cannot hurt you; do not panic
They cannot harm you; please calm down
Do not be frightened; these cages are built of titanium steel
Please, you must calm down
They cannot harm you
Ladies and gentlemen, that cannot escape
That man [?] has captured them
Barehanded, and brought them to the stage
For your viewing enjoyment
Please, we can assure you
They cannot harm you; they cannot escape
Wait, what's happening?
It looks like they might be escaping!
Please, somebody help!
Wait! Run for your lives!
