The Great Entertainer
Shave my head, Shave my beard
I'm gonna change everything
Throw my shirts, Toss my ledger
Medication don't work like it promised to
Find my way out of this jar
I think the lids too far
I think the lids too far
I'm gonna be the great entertainer
I'm gonna put myself in danger
You know they said the wheel was too round
And to pray to god before you're in the ground
Yes to pray to god before you're in the ground
Paint my picture, Paint it well
You won't recognise me
Kiss my forehead, Linger on
I've been having the same nightmare
I'm gonna walk right out that door
I don't live here anymore
I don't live here anymore
I'm gonna be the great entertainer
I'm gonna put myself in danger
You know they said the wheel was too round
And to pray to god before you're in the ground
Yes to pray to god before you're in the ground
From up here, the crowd, seems so small
I've been waiting my whole life
Raise my head in pride, don't look down at the wire
Centre my balance, and I feel my feet glide
Sell the mansion, sell the farm
I'm gonna join a travelling show
Birds in the trees, Laughing at me
They won't be laughing when I swing from the trapeze
I'm gonna be a circus clown
Tear the roof off of this town
Tear the roof off this town
I'm gonna be the great entertainer
I'm gonna put myself in danger
You know they said the wheel was too round
And to pray to god before you're in the ground
Yes to pray to god before you're in the ground
I'm gonna change everything
Throw my shirts, Toss my ledger
Medication don't work like it promised to
Find my way out of this jar
I think the lids too far
I think the lids too far
I'm gonna be the great entertainer
I'm gonna put myself in danger
You know they said the wheel was too round
And to pray to god before you're in the ground
Yes to pray to god before you're in the ground
Paint my picture, Paint it well
You won't recognise me
Kiss my forehead, Linger on
I've been having the same nightmare
I'm gonna walk right out that door
I don't live here anymore
I don't live here anymore
I'm gonna be the great entertainer
I'm gonna put myself in danger
You know they said the wheel was too round
And to pray to god before you're in the ground
Yes to pray to god before you're in the ground
From up here, the crowd, seems so small
I've been waiting my whole life
Raise my head in pride, don't look down at the wire
Centre my balance, and I feel my feet glide
Sell the mansion, sell the farm
I'm gonna join a travelling show
Birds in the trees, Laughing at me
They won't be laughing when I swing from the trapeze
I'm gonna be a circus clown
Tear the roof off of this town
Tear the roof off this town
I'm gonna be the great entertainer
I'm gonna put myself in danger
You know they said the wheel was too round
And to pray to god before you're in the ground
Yes to pray to god before you're in the ground
