The Ringleader

In the circus,
I know everything!
I oversee it all
Ring to ring to ring!

We've got the high wire
Way above the net!
We've got the tigers
Making the mothers sweat!

We've got the stilted man,
Twenty-five feet tall!
We've got Amazing Dan
The Human Cannonball!

We've got the heart rate up
On everyone in town!
When they're about to pop,
We're rolling out the clowns!

In the circus,
They call me governor!
We've got the children
Screaming out for more!

We've got the elephants.
A fifteen-dollar ride!
The motorcycle cage,
It's insane inside!

We've got the acrobats
Chopping off their hands!
They've got to concentrate.
Silence in the stands!

I raise the house lights up,
And then I bring them down!
And when they least expect,
We're rolling out the clowns!

Witness in sheer terror, ladies and gentlemen,
as the lovely Rita is lifted onto the board.
Her blindfold is secure.
Will the knives of Edward the Magnificent
strike the board safely around her body,
or will this be her final act?
Hip, hip?HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!
