Lyrics

Circus
Chris Ising, Mark Dolin, Bill O'Hanlon

Step on into the spotlight, baby
Are you here for the show, or maybe
You're just dying to find out more

There's something in you that wants to know
Meet me under the big top, so
I can show you what's behind that door

(Hey) Welcome to the circus
Come one come all and you'll have some fun
(Hey) What you see on the surface
Ain't nothin' like what's goin' on

A different life than the rubes and marks
Disguised as light but it's really dark
Like a magnet that pulls you closer

Try to leave and you just keep falling
An irresistible calling calling
You can struggle, but it's all over

(Hey) Welcome to the circus
Come one come all and you'll have some fun
(Hey) What you see on the surface
Ain't nothin' like what's goin' on

Instrumental

(Hey) Welcome to the circus
Come one come all and you'll have some fun
(Hey) What you see on the surface
Ain't nothin' like what's goin' on
(Hey) Welcome to the circus
Come one come all and you'll have some fun
(Hey) What you see on the surface
Ain't nothin' like what's goin' on
