Circus On the Moon |
|
Hey out there, are you hearing my call |
|
It's a cry for help but all you see |
|
are these craters and these walls |
|
I've erected in my room |
|
I'd like you to see, I'm a performer with skills |
|
Don't make fun of me with my whistles and my bullhorns and my bells |
|
And I hope you'll see it soon |
|
Getting 'bout as much attention as a circus on the moon |
|
I'm here with the elephants, I'm cleaning up mess |
|
I'm trying to be special, but to you |
|
I'm just like all the rest |
|
Look what they've got me doing |
|
Got a high wire act I can show you my skills |
|
Trapeze and a bar across my heart, across my ills |
|
Escape through a trap door and I'll go on my way |
|
Try as I do, I just can't connect anyway |
|
Getting bout as much attention as a circus on the moon |
|
Standing tall and lone in my circus on the moon |
|
I'm a perfect little foil for the prognosticators of doom |
|
I'll bet you in a minute they'll be searching my room |
|
Watch out for the deluge I believe it's coming soon |
|
And I'll bet you five bucks we'll see the stars come out at noon |
|
You can bet all you got I'll get your attention soon |
|
Getting 'bout as much attention as a circus on the moon |
|
I'm a stalwart trapeze artist on my |
|
(circus on the moon) |
|
I'm a lonely tightrope walker in my |
|
(circus on the moon) |
|
An accomplished virtuoso in my (circus on the moon) |
|
Waving at you sweetly from my |
|
circus on the moon |
|
Three million miles away I'm staring at you, staring at you |
|
Waving at you sweetly from my |
|
(circus on the moon) |
|
Standing tall and lone in my circus on the moon |
|
Three million miles away I'm staring at you in my circus on the moon |
