Life's a Circus

I have never liked the circus, I find them very cruel. Bears on unicycles, Do nothing for me at all, Or the bear come to that And that's a fact Lion tamers that use whips, Trying to take command Of the king of the jungle, Is more than I can stand Performing dogs, jumping fleas, Why do we need to torture these Poor creatures in this way. Do we take pleasure in this, Or does it pay, The circus to exploit and say "They're only animals anyway"
