don mclean - circus song (solo live) lyrics
[verse 1]
cotton candy, two for a quarter
see if the fat man can guess your weight
a big stuffed tiger’s what i bought her
and i’m goin’ home ’cause it’s late
[verse 2]
roller coasters make me dizzy
cotton candy makes me sick
i wish i had some bromo+fizzy
that would do the trick
[bridge]
everyone knows that the clowns aren’t happy
everyone knows that the people don’t care
i wish i could laugh at the way that they’re acting
but i’m so sick, i just don’t dare to
[verse 3]
high wire dancers kick and balance
white silk horses step in time
the tattooed man displays his talents
i’m not thе talented kind
[bridge]
i always go to the circus on sunday
and thеre i can laugh at the people i see
but when i leave home in the morning on monday
everybody laughs at me
[verse 4]
you know i make other people nervous
i guess that’s why they laugh at me
but to me my life is a three+ring circus
and i can see it for free
[bridge]
have you seen my wife elvira?
she can tame a lion, you know
well, i once had a bushy mane
that was so d+mn long ago
[verse 5]
tight+collared clowns in plastic buildings
have happy families as their fate
happy jobs and happy clubs
and happy people they hate
[outro]
everyone’s juggling and everyone’s acting
with smiles of grease paint three feet wide
everyone’s caught on a carousel pony
and one time around is a lifetime ride
