I Want Out of the Circus

Now I, I want out of the circus

Since the girl in the blue sparkly dress

On one knee, I con-fessed

Put an end to that exchange of glancesNow I, I want out of the circus

That old gang of dwarfs

Sometimes, they're downright feral

When they, they've been around that old beer barrelThe old lion's teeth

Seems like a smile to me

With some sweet relief

I just stick my head inNow my tale, it's too ordinary

For anyone to care at all

Not like the man repeatedly struck by lightning

When he bears his scars, we all know
