It was a day like any other My son he turned to me and said Father wherever did we go so wrong I thought it over for a minute and said Son for twelve years There was a circus Sometimes i want to dream my life away And other times it all seems wrong Still other days i want to throw my life away Thats when i know i dont belong Now when im down some people ask me Just when and where my luck did change I smile and say the eighties broke my spirit cause when the circus came to town I was in its way This charade is not for me Just put aside what i think it means to me Just put aside my eccentricities Theres nothing for me in this one horse town At least until the circus came around
