David Wilcox (Canadian) - Breakfast at the Circus lyrics

I woke up this morning and prayed to the gypsy rose lady "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 cirucs 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 get 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 cirucs 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 Wooh what a party Everyone was there Great to see you where've 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
