crispin glover – the daring young man on the flying trapeze lyrics
[verse 1]
a man was once happy, but now he’s forlorn
like an old coat that is tattered and torn
left on this wide world to weep and to mourn
betrayed by a maid in her teens
well, this made that he loved she was handsome
and he tried all i knew her to please
but he never could not please her one quarter so well
as the man upon the flying trapeze
[hook]
i’d fly through the air with the greatest of ease
that daring young man on the flying trapeze
my actions are graceful, all girls i do please
and his love i purloined away
[verse 2]
i’d play with a miss like a cat with a mouse
my eyes would undress every girl in the house
perhaps i am better described as a louse
but the people they came just the same
i’d smile from the bar on the people below
and one night i smiled on his love
she blew me a kiss and she hollered, “bravo!”
as i hung by the bar from above
[hook]
i’d fly through the air with the greatest of ease
that daring young man on the flying trapeze
my actions are graceful, all girls i do please
and his love i purloined away
[verse 3]
some months after that he cameinto a hall
and to my surprise, he found there on the wall
a bill in red letters which did his heart gall
that she was appearing with me
i taught her gymnastics, and dressed her in tights
to help me to live at my ease
i’d made her take on a masculine name
and now she goes on the trapeze
[hook]
i’d fly through the air with the greatest of ease
that daring young man on the flying trapeze
my actions are graceful, all girls i do please
and his love i purloinedeth away
and his love i purloinedeth away
and his love keeps purloinedeth away
