The circus is back in town |
|
here comes my favorite clown again |
|
I love it when he strips his smile |
|
puts it in a tidy pile of shame |
|
And then my ol' favorite clown |
|
paints on his faithful frown and plays |
|
that old familiar game |
|
of which i have no name but "Death" |
|
We go marching |
|
through these scorching times |
|
our lungs are filled with dirt |
|
but no amount of hurt |
|
will stop us trying |
|
We go marching |
|
through these parching times |
|
rain will come again |
|
and just like distant friend |
|
we'll both be crying |
|
Oh that sweet awful sound |
|
of my ol' favorite clown in need |
|
i help him once again |
|
to get back on his hands and knees |
|
We go marching... |
