Circus
I am here for your amusement, I am here to entertain.
This show is a spectacle, You're enjoyment I will maintain.
Here at the circus, I am the ring master, I am your host.
You will see unbelievable feats, for which I brag and I boast.
Ladies and gentleman, moms and dads, children of all ages
Tonight I bring a spectacular feat never seen on any stages
Our daring great Walenda will attempt to cross on the high wire
One end of the Grand Canyon to the other, while set on fire
Have no fear kind folks, Walenda is an expert and a pro.
Don't try this stunt at home, children unless your daddy says so.
Ah see here, see here, turn your view to this peculiar array,
Feast your eyes on the prize, a dozen curious clowns coming this way.
Look out, look out here come the lions followed by their daring trainer
The lions snarl, the lines roar, performing for our great entertainer
Look up high swinging back and forth on the flying trapeze
Performing grabs, holds and flips with the greatest of ease.
We have elephants and a dancing bear, even a kangaroo.
We have traveled all around this world to come and entertain you.
On the edge of your seats, ladies and gents, the show is about to start.
And believe me when I tell you this, the circus is for the young at heart.
