<b>Circus</b> by <i>30 Odd Foot Of Grunts</i><br />I went to the circus

To waste some time

The barker was yelling what's on

So I paid up my money

And I waited in line

The circus was just like home

The crowd had gathered

So I walked on by

To backstage places unknown

I could tell by the fire

And the moon and the sky

The circus was just like home

There were animal cages

And animal tails

Woman who move like a poem

With their vampire faces

And beautiful nails

The circus felt just like home

The strong man was dancing

In the clothes that he borrowed

From a girl in the chorus line

And the gypsy was drinking

Like there's no tomorrow

With the ringmaster who

Was drinking faster

Blessing everybody with wine

Behind at the lion tamer running around

Looking like a Christian in Rome

They were loading the cannon

With the Portuguese clown

And the circus was just like home

The strong man was dancing

In the clothes that he borrowed

Form a girl in the chorus line

And the gypsy was drinking

Like there's no tomorrow

With the ringmaster who

Was drinking faster

Blessing everybody with wine

I went to the circus

It was cash in advance

The barker was yelling what's on

He said come to the circus

You can smell the romance

See all the tigers and elephants dance

Thousands of suckers

Paid up for the chance

And the circus was just like home
