Circus
Circus
Life was a circus
A hectic thing
The moon was a toy balloon
We had on a string
Gay banners unfurled
Lovely confusion
We were in another world
A world of illusion
And as in a circus
Daring young love
On a high trapeze
We certainly flew through the air
With the greatest of ease
We painted the town
Did it up brown, I was the clown
You were the laughter
Echoing after
Yesterday the circus left town
Big top, sky of blue
Stars were happy, too
And on the greatest show on Earth
Front row, paradise
And well worth the price
What more excitement could you know on Earth?
Slowly you wake believing
This wasn't make believing
No, oh, no!
As you unmask yourself
You only can ask yourself where did it go?
Where did it go?
And as in a circus
Daring young love
On a high trapeze
We certainly flew through the air
With the greatest of ease
We painted the town
Did it up brown, I was the clown
You were the laughter
Echoing after
Yesterday the circus left town
Circus
Circus
Circus
Circus
Circus
Circus
Life was a circus
A hectic thing
The moon was a toy balloon
We had on a string
Gay banners unfurled
Lovely confusion
We were in another world
A world of illusion
And as in a circus
Daring young love
On a high trapeze
We certainly flew through the air
With the greatest of ease
We painted the town
Did it up brown, I was the clown
You were the laughter
Echoing after
Yesterday the circus left town
Big top, sky of blue
Stars were happy, too
And on the greatest show on Earth
Front row, paradise
And well worth the price
What more excitement could you know on Earth?
Slowly you wake believing
This wasn't make believing
No, oh, no!
As you unmask yourself
You only can ask yourself where did it go?
Where did it go?
And as in a circus
Daring young love
On a high trapeze
We certainly flew through the air
With the greatest of ease
We painted the town
Did it up brown, I was the clown
You were the laughter
Echoing after
Yesterday the circus left town
Circus
Circus
Circus
Circus
Circus
Circus
