|
circus girl, how could you love me |
|
you're so far above me |
|
you hang by your knees and your toes |
|
circus girl can you even hear me |
|
down in the crowd |
|
your silver skirt hangs back over your breast |
|
such beautiful legs and you sparkle and flirt |
|
I don't mind lipstick all over my shirt |
|
you fly through the air |
|
you've got princess hair |
|
I'm really impressed |
|
circus girl you fly higher than the house of lords |
|
you look serene |
|
circus girl your picture cheers hospital wards |
|
you met the queen |
|
the ringmaster's hat is as black as a wellington boot |
|
he's mean he cracks his whip |
|
but if he tries to beat you or even mistreat you |
|
I'll give him some lip |
|
circus girl you ride wild horses running real quick |
|
you smoke long cigars and you don't get sick |
|
you dance on tightropes sleep on knives |
|
if I married you would I want other wives |
