Plain White T's - Cirque Dans La Rue lyrics

Take me to the big show Take me anywhere but here Put me in the front row Make my problems disappear Trapeze, high wire Without a safety net For the price of admission I wanna witness life or d**h All the pretty girls get cut in half While the sad clowns make us laugh I wanna make friends with the freaks I wanna throw down with the clowns that I meet I wanna have a party in the middle of the street I wanna have a party in the middle of the street I wanna have a party in the middle of the street Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers All the people just like me Are you ready to risk it all And be a human cannonball? Sharpen up those knives And throw them at the fool against the wall We're all against that wall I wanna make friends with the freaks I wanna throw down with the clowns that I meet I wanna have a party in the middle of the street I wanna have a party in the middle of the street I wanna have a party in the middle of the street Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers All the people just like me Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls Come one, come all to the Cirque Dans La Rue Check your troubles at the door You don't need 'em anymore! Leave reality outside and come along for the ride But just remember While you're watching us Do the things that we do We're watching you All the pretty girls get cut in half While the sad clowns make us laugh All the pretty girls get cut in half While the sad clowns make us laugh I wanna make friends with the freaks I wanna throw down with the clowns that I meet I wanna have a party in the middle of the street I wanna have a party in the middle of the street I wanna have a party in the middle of the street Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers All the people just like me Just like me I wanna have a party in the middle of the street I wanna have a party in the middle of the street I wanna have a party in the middle of the street Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers All the people just like me All the pretty girls get cut in half While the sad clowns make us laugh
