Found out this morning |
|
There's a circus coming to town |
|
They drive in cadillacs |
|
Using walkie-talkies, and the secret service |
|
Their big top |
|
Imitation of life |
|
And all the flags and microphones |
|
We have to cover our eyes |
|
We play the sideshows |
|
And we like the tunnel of love |
|
And when we ride the ferris wheel |
|
We're little children again |
|
And when they're asking for volunteers |
|
We'll be the first ones aboard |
|
And when the ringmaster calls our names |
|
We'll be the first ones to go ... to sleep |
|
Stealing all our dreams |
|
Dreams for sale |
|
They sell 'em back to you |
|
On with the show |
|
Start the parade |
|
We sand along |
|
Sweep us away |
|
It's political party time |
|
Going down, going down |
|
And the celebrities all come out |
|
Coming down, coming down, coming... |
|
The sun is going down |
|
And the dogs are starting to howl |
|
We stay out after dark |
|
Eating cotton candy |
|
And the music's playing... |
|
How we all laughed! |
|
We split our sides |
|
The cameras flashed |
|
We almost died! |
|
The rain's gonna pour on down, falling out of the sky |
|
Coming down, coming down |
|
And the celebrities all run out, and the rain's |
|
Coming down, coming down |
|
Gonna rain, |
|
Gonna rain, gonna rain |
|
Gonna rain, gonna rain, |
|
Rain, rain |
|
Rain, rain |
|
And now i wonder who's boss |
|
And who he's leavin' behind? |
