[00:13.22]It's so hard to keep it all together
[00:18.84]So hard to get everything just right
[00:24.34]Just when I think I got it all in order
[00:30.47]Man that's when lightning usually strikes
[00:36.72]So I been trying to keep my ship tight
[00:42.38]Make sure everything's where it goes
[00:48.11]Sure all my pictures are just hung right
[00:53.81]Starched and pressed my good clothes
[01:00.01]Baby take me down to the Circus
[01:06.51]Sometime when it's in town
[01:10.99]Show me all around
[01:16.47]The Big Show
[01:18.73]On the fast rides
[01:21.41]How you laugh and smile
[01:26.72]How it feels when you let go
[01:42.04]I been readin' in the papers
[01:45.46]I been listening to the radio
[01:51.67]They say you better get your house in order
[01:57.01]Least you be left here alone
[02:02.58]So I straighten up my posture
[02:06.51]And polish up these old dusty bones
[02:14.23]And my suit's tailor made to order
[02:20.18]To greet the king of this Big Show
[02:30.22]Baby take me down to the Circus
[02:32.69]Sometime when it's in town
[02:37.47]Show me all around
[02:42.14]The Big Show
[02:44.46]On the fast rides
[02:47.38]How you laugh and smile
[02:51.76]How it feels when you let go
[03:06.17]I saw a man lying on the roadside
[03:11.40]Somebody had covered his face with a towel
[03:16.79]The police or the ambulance hadn't even gotten there
[03:22.85]Guess it'd all just gone down
[03:27.95]And as I drove on I couldn't help but think about it
[03:33.59]Couldn't seem to get past what I'd just seen
[03:39.64]Did I just happen to drive by as his soul leaked out
[03:44.58]Or did God come for him and just want me to see
[03:50.84]Baby take me down to the Circus
[03:55.05]Sometime when it's in town
[03:57.74]Show me all around
[04:07.05]The Big Show
[04:09.24]On the fast rides
[04:12.12]How you laugh and smile
[04:15.99]How it feels when you let go
