Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I was a circus man
Then I'd be a circus man
Only you could understand
[Verse 2]
All my life ahead of me
That's the way it oughta be
Circus take me away
[Verse 3]
Wonder where I've been again
Then I'll be back again
See a brand new day
[Verse 4]
See the girlie on TV
Wonder if she could see me
Buy the funny magazines of talk
[Verse 5]
It's a secret part of me
Secret identity
Love to love my honey all night long
[Verse 6]
Take a walk around the block
See the future of the clock
No good in forgetting
[Verse 7]
If I was a circus man
Only you would understand
There's a story there to tell
See your brother burn in hell
