Self-created Oddities! Morbid Curiosities! Next up, Young Aidan, raised in sheltered bliss In the unassailable Midwest The red carnival ticket was admission to a brave new world One look at lovely Lydia he could hardly see the ink He saw beauty beneath her branded skin Her eyes whispered to his soul within, They said "Welcome to Theatre Noir" Onward the caravan crawls With Aidan following after His lunatic obsession only grew with each rejection Welcome to Theatre Noir Backstage he proclaimed his love But Aidan was tragically rebuffed, "We are all abominations, and without some aberration, you'll never be one of us." "I'll do anything," Aidan replied. "I'd walk though fire to stay by your side!" And that's precisely what he did His hair melted and his flesh dripped He rose like a phoenix from the smoking ash; thus was born the Smoldering Man Welcome to Theatre Noir Come see the Tattooed Lady, At her side, the Smoldering Man The Legendary Lovers, so scandalous, so strange Twisted and taboo and so deliciously deranged Witness their wickedness, their pleasure and their pain And Welcome to Theatre Noir! We'll glorify your scars You'll be the Greatest Star! Yes, Welcome to Theatre Noir!
