Bert Jansch - When the Circus Comes to Town

When the Circus Comes to Town

The bear was dancing
Jumpin' up and down,
He clapped his hands,
Just like a clown,
Each time he pulled his chain so tight,
Everybody laughed with sheer delight.

Now when the circus comes to town,
I'll be around.

And the red-eyed tiger flicks his tail,
He circles 'round to no avail,
Each time the whip cracked so
The crowd gave out a mighty cheer.

Now when the circus comes to town.
I'll be around.

In baggy trousers
And a big red nose,
He brings a smile
Wherever he goes.
He sits his self up and then tumbles down,
We all laugh and cheer for the sad-faced clown.

Now when the circus comes to town,
I'll be around.
Yeah, when the circus comes to town,
I'll be around.
Yeah, when the circus comes to town,
I'll be around.
