All around, people drive me mad
Like freaks in a traveling fair
I can't take this pressure no more
I feel like a dancing bear
When I close my eyes, then it all just disappears
Life is a circus, surrounded by clowns
Life is a circus, let's tear the big top down, down, down, down
Tear it down

I feel the world is closing in
I gotta put on my clown face
Spitting fire on the high wire
And a girl that's bent outta shape
When I close my eyes, then it all just disappears
Life is a circus, surrounded by clowns
Life is a circus, let's tear the big top down, down, down, down
Tear it down

Life is a circus, surrounded by clowns
Life is a circus, let's tear the big top down, down, down, down
Life is a circus
Life is a circus
Life is a circus
Let's tear the big top down
