From the recording Cautionary Tales
Lyrics
CIRCUS QUEEN
One day the circus came to town
and she threatened to run away
but I know just where she can be found
and I won't beg her to stay
Oh no don't be a fool for the circus Queen
The grass keeps getting greener down the road
and she'll convince someone to help her tote her troubled load
The last town she was in they were so mean
obscene
And no one seems to understand
the Circus Queen
She swears they'll swarm to come see her perform
the warmth of her light and draw them in
but be warned my friend
Once her chilling act begins
the light electrified will be your end
Oh no don't be a fool for the circus Queen
The grass keeps getting greener down the road and
she'll convince someone to help her tote her troubled load
The last town she was in they were so mean
obscene
And no one seems to understand
the Circus Queen
Solo
The grass keeps getting greener down the road
and she'll convince someone to help her tote her troubled load
The last town she was in they were so mean
obscene
And no one seems to understand
the Circus Queen
The Circus Queen
