Trusting Trapped Tease----Up There

If everything is all right Then there is not going to be a fight Thoughts from those wearing tights And arms showing might A huge net down there Going through the air Grabbing a swinging bar Being cool acting like a star Everything seems so simple Just smile show the dimple It is only a trick put on An illusion, an innocent con With feats not having a room for erring Entertaining audiences by scaring Based on trust No room for fuss It is a spectacle that is cool Wondering who’s a fool Under the big top Where the action never is supposed to stop A wild and crazy thing Fascinating Presidents and Kings Under the spot light No one can fight If done right Then the thrill is ‘out of sight’ Take this advice At any price Comradely is not throwing dice It is the warm trusting feeling that is nice Next time when requested to do a dare Make sure it is done not only with flair But enough care Giving a reason for the patron’s amazement stare Enjoying their time attending the amusement fair
