A Carnie’s Life is a Tough Life Lyrics by Isaac Paris

Angel’s Cruel Thesis

0

A carnies life is a tough life
Remember that time you went berserk?
It was a disaster that day at the circus
You insist your innocent you insist you didn’t start it
But the knife throwing man has made you his target
And the chameleon man Is giving you bug eyes
And the manager is smoking cigars telling lies
At the snack stand they ran out of sweet potato fries
But they got plenty of banana cream pies and they all have your name on them
And the strong man wants you dead
And the trapeze act wants to drop you on your hеad
Don’t forget the words the bеarded lady said
Someone has it in for you
And around here they all stick together like glue
If you do indeed take me to be a guru
Get out while you can if you know what’s good for you
Cuz the man with the removable eye has his eye on you
And the magician trained his rabbit and doves to spy on you
The clowns are making a racket that would anger Zeuss
But would probably put a smile on the face of Doctor Seuss
The elephants hearing couldn’t improve
The spotlight’s on you
Its time to make your move
Lets see you try it, lets see you prove it
But you can’t juggle
And you’re wearing the completely wrong pants and
Its been years and years since ballet class
You forgot how to sing
You forgot how to sing
But the beautiful ladies can
And even the monkey can prance
I never volunteered it is all happenstance
I spent too many years in the office
My over working was my greatest fault
Why wasn’t I rolling in the grass
Practicing my somersaults
