Say Goodbye to the Freak Show Lyrics by Henry Krieger

Side Show (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

1997

[VIOLET]
What have we done?
[DAISY]
Lost our jobs
[VIOLET]
Closed a door
[TERRY]
Opened more!
Say goodbye to the freak show
Say hello to the footlight's glow
Your success can only grow
Say goodbye to the freak show
[TERRY & ATTRACTIONS]
Goodbye
[DAISY]
Goodbye
We will miss you
[GEEK]
Don't cry
Let me kiss you
[VIOLET]
Oh my
Why should it be so hard
To say goodbye
[HAREM GIRL #1]
Farewell
Don't forget us
[BEARDED LADY]
Do tell
How you met us
[6th EXHIBIT]
Don't dwell
On sorrow as you go
[DOLLY DIMPLES]
You will fare well
[FORTUNE TELLER]
Now, now
Saying goodbye is part of growing up
There's a whole new world
Of friends for you to make
[JAKE]
Goodbye, Daisy
Dear, sweet Violet
[DAISY & VIOLET]
No! Not goodbye to Jake!
[JAKE]
Take wing
Fly to glory
Dance, sing
Tell your story!
You bring such joy to those you've known
Take flight, take wing
[TERRY]
Jake, looks like their hearts might break
Saying goodbye to you
You're a friend of the twins
You've helped them along
Constant support
Quiet and strong
We could use you backstage
As we tour with their act
Why not join the troupe?
Your bag is packed
[DAISY]
Yes—say yes!
[VIOLET]
Please, come along!
[JAKE]
Nothing lost if I decide to
I feel I belong beside you
[ATTRACTIONS]
Say goodbye to the freak show
Bless your new impresario
We always knew you would outgrow
The tents of the sideshow
Goodbye
Strike tents
Pull the stakes up
Go gents
Let the brakes up
No fence
Stops us from moving on
To our next show
Farewell (Farewell)
Don't forget us
Do tell (Do tell)
How you met us
Don't dwell
On sorrow as you go
You will fare well
Goodbye
