Karen Jonas - The Circus lyrics

I don't wanna stay at the circus The clowns keep pickin' my pockets The elephant's chasin' me 'round in circles The Ringmaster's kind of a creep I don't wanna stay at the circus The lions are makin' me nervous I don't like the crowds, don't like the work And everybody's happy but me Everyone here has a mask on And I don't know who to believe All of these clowns make it look like fun Everybody's laughin' but me I wanted to walk on the tightrope If I could fly on the old trapeeze But I don't wanna stay at the circus I wanted to walk in unexpected Surprise yourself, mornin' at breakfast Say I still love you, say that I'm [?] I'm awfully far from home So please, would you send me some money? I promise that I'm really sorry I know that you're probably pretty angry But I got no one else to call 'Cause everyone here has a mask on And I don't know who to believe All of these clowns make it look like fun Everybody's laughin' but me I was so brave when I left home But I knew what a fool I'd be I don't wanna stay at the circus I don't wanna stay at the circus
