....And the Show Must Go On....
Circus troupe at county fair
jump through hoops are dogs that dare
painted clown big shoes that smell
showers water from flowered lapel
bearded lady house of mirrors
changing shapes of those who stare
freaks of nature entertain
beguile the crowd without explain
all for laughter all for fun
as "pow" pops out from phony gun
elephants in colored costumed
lion tamer to the rescue
man with helmet shot from canon
into a net for safety landin'
no escape from three ring circus
caught the hype to entertain us...
