I woke up this morning and prayed to Gypsy Rose Lee |
|
"Gypsy, can you help me I'm struggling, you see" |
|
I heard her laughing over by the slot machine |
|
She said, "Baby, baby, baby, I had the strangest dream" |
|
Having breakfast at the circus with the lions and the clowns |
|
Everybody's laughing, just hanging around |
|
But nobody's gonna love you unless you help tear down |
|
Breakfast at the circus with the lions and the clowns |
|
People walking a tightrope, head in the lion's jaws |
|
They need a little mercy, so come on, Santa Claus |
|
And when you give your mercy, won't you save a drop for us |
|
We'll remember you and your family too when they greet us on the bus |
|
Having breakfast at the circus with the lions and the clowns |
|
Everybody's laughing, just hanging around |
|
But nobody's gonna love you unless you help tear down |
|
Breakfast at the circus with the lions and the clowns |
|
My ears are ringing and my mind is a mess |
|
Give me one goodnight kiss to help me forget the past |
|
Whoo, what a party, everyone was there |
|
Great to see you, where you been, hey, who does your hair? |
|
Free balloons and hats and soon the seal will catch a ball |
|
And after that the acrobat will try to top the show |
|
Having breakfast at the circus with the lions and the clowns |
|
Everybody's laughing, just hanging around |
|
But nobody's gonna love you unless you help tear down |
|
Breakfast at the circus with the lions and the clowns |
