Greatest Show On Earth
The greatest Show on earth can be found
when the circus comes to town.
All the adults and children gather around
it's under the big top where they can be found.
A three ringed circus has all the attractions
so, step up an experience the action.
The ring master prevails with his whip
top hat and red tails.
He presents all the attractions
giving all such great satisfaction.
Tight rope walking, man shot from canon,
trapeze artists fly through the air
as though without a care.
Man eating tigers can be seen,
in a cage, in the center ring.
The man eating tigers
do what the trainers desire
even jumping through rings of fire.
Then there is a dancing bear
doing summersaults in the air.
Ten seals on pedestals in a circle
tossing around a ball that is purple.
Animal balloons can be made
by humorous clowns that don't have to be paid.
The finale is a parade
elephant's trucks clasping tails lead the way.
The circus is ready to perform another day.
