The Day The Circus Came To Town - Momus[00:00:00]
The day the circus came to town[00:00:02]
We lined the streets from Leith[00:00:04]
To beyond belief[00:00:06]
The day the circus came to town[00:00:11]
The wind was light to moderate[00:00:13]
And there was fog on higher ground[00:00:15]
And everybody laughed or did not laugh[00:00:18]
When a couple of mongrels coupled on the path[00:00:20]
The day the circus came to town[00:00:22]
The day the circus came to town[00:00:26]
The department stores were crammed[00:00:29]
Like hell with the Damned[00:00:31]
The day the circus came to town[00:00:35]
There were ten years in a decade[00:00:37]
A hundred pennies in a pound[00:00:39]
And everybody clapped or did not clap[00:00:42]
When an orchestra swept past in drag[00:00:44]
The day the circus came to town[00:00:46]
Couldn't tell the two apart[00:00:51]
But there's only room for one in my heart[00:00:53]
Because being of one mind is a capital crime[00:00:55]
I will pack and unpack at the drop of a hat[00:00:59]
And I will join or leave that circus[00:01:03]
At any given point at any given point [00:01:06]
At any given point in time[00:01:08]
The day the circus came to town[00:01:14]
It was overtime for the boys in blue[00:01:16]
But they were dancing too[00:01:18]
The circus came to town[00:01:20]
The fork was on the left and[00:01:23]
The knife was on the right[00:01:24]
And the diner sat down[00:01:25]
And everybody cheered or did not cheer[00:01:27]
When a boy took off his[00:01:29]
Hat and his hair appeared[00:01:30]
The day the circus came to town[00:01:32]
The day the circus came to town[00:01:39]
God was in his heaven like a goldfish in a bowl[00:01:42]
To the visible dismay of air traffic control[00:01:44]
The day the circus came to town[00:01:45]
Last night's party met the day's first hearse[00:01:48]
And spilling vodka on the[00:01:50]
Wake made a fatal mistake[00:01:51]
With a match and flabbergasted[00:01:52]
Watched them all[00:01:54]
Fall flambeed six feet underground[00:01:54]
And everybody booed or did not boo[00:01:57]
When the ghost of Deacon[00:01:59]
Brodie sawed a corpse in two[00:02:00]
The day the circus came to town[00:02:01]
Still can't tell the two apart[00:02:06]
But there's only room for one in my heart[00:02:07]
Because being of one mind is a capital crime[00:02:09]
I will pack and unpack at the drop of a hat[00:02:14]
And join or leave that circus[00:02:19]
At any given point in time[00:02:22]
Because being of one mind is a capital crime[00:02:23]
I will pack and unpack at the drop of a hat[00:02:28]
And I will join or leave that circus[00:02:33]
At any given point at any given point [00:02:35]
At any given point in time[00:02:38]
Because being of one mind[00:02:40]
Is a cap cap capital crime[00:02:46]
I will pack and unpack at the drop of a hat[00:02:53]
And I will join or leave that circus[00:03:05]
At any given point any given point [00:03:14]
At any given point in time[00:03:20]
