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 in my circus on the moon

Lonely tightrope walker in my circus on the moon

Accomplished virtuoso in my circus on the-

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 low in my circus on the moon

Three million miles away I'm staring at you in my circus on the moon
