And when I was twelve years old

My daddy took me to a circus

“The Greatest Show on Earth”

There were clowns and elephants and dancing bears

And a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads

And as I sat there watching

I had the feeling that something was missing

I don't know what

But when it was all over, I said to myself

“Is that all there is to a circus”
