Lyrics for Circus Of Sour

Circus of Sour Holds shows every hour The lion is eating the bars, hey the bars I was erected The poor man's expected To climb to the stars Balanced just on one knee Look out your window and see Look out your window and see The clown chases spotlights The bear faces hot lights Pelted with peanuts and coke, hey the coke And high in the tent-top The lady just went up To hang by a rope From her teeth gracefully Look out your window and see Look out your window and see Admission is paid up Until you are laid up There's only one catch to the fun, hey the fun To hell if you're willin' Your name's on the billing And it seems that you're wanted In ring number three Look out your window and see I'll look out my window and see I look out my window and see
