That there's a circus in town
And I think that I'm gonna go there
There's a whole lot of action
You can see for a fraction
I think two dollars is the total fare
They got a man on a wire
That just keeps getting higher
Till you don't even know that he's there
They got a rock 'n' roll band
That's getting quite a hand
And everybody saids they're the rage
They do a marvelous feat
They play a psychodelic beat
Would you believe that they're working in a cage
I said the word's going around
That there's a circus in town
And I think that I'm gonna fall by
They got a tent true blue with a sugar cue
That's really suppose to catch your eye
They got some other tricks
A cop performs with sticks
All they had are the hostile kind
They got a million clowns
With their hair way down
And all the people laugh as they walk by
If you go a Monday
You can see a junkie
Tuesday is my day
And they do a funky broadway
Wednesday is kinda quite
So they have a teenage riot
Thursday is a cutie
They got a topless nudie
Firday is kinda heavy
So they increase the levy
And Saturday I understand
Is a great big traffic jam
Now I have been told the day that is best
It falls upon the day of rest
They even have a choir sing
I mean if you like that sort of thing
Yes the word's going around
That there's a circus in town
And I think that I'm gonna go there
It's not the usual kind
It's suppose to blow your mind
For the hip as well as the square
And what amazes me
Spontaneously
Open every place and every where
