The lions roar and young men soar
The flames all scorch the circus floor
Puppets on string all dance and sing and flap their wings [bad word] play sick lullabies
Delicate dame her fragile face
Was scared away without a trace
Out in the cold, where did she go?
Into unknown a place I'll never
Know and the desperate search began
All across this sea and land
I just knew I'd find you here
I just knew I'd find you
Elephants rear and young men steer
The audience just claps and cheers
I asked around half empty towns
About a girl nowhere to be found
And the desperate search began
All across this sea and land
I just knew I'd find you here
I just knew I'd find you
We didn't know, we could not go
The circus songs just carried on
Out of the crowd three [bad word] out
And scream and shout, "Everybody Stop!"
