Lyrics

Circus On the Moon
 Hey out there, are you hearing my call
 It's a cry for help but all you see
 are these craters and these walls
 I've erected in my room
 I'd like you to see, I'm a performer with skills
 Don't make fun of me with my whistles and my bullhorns and my bells
 And I hope you'll see it soon
 Getting 'bout as much attention as a circus on the moon
 I'm here with the elephants, I'm cleaning up mess
 I'm trying to be special, but to you
 I'm just like all the rest
 Look what they've got me doing
 Got a high wire act I can show you my skills
 Trapeze and a bar across my heart, across my ills
 Escape through a trap door and I'll go on my way
 Try as I do, I just can't connect anyway
 Getting bout as much attention as a circus on the moon
 Standing tall and lone in my circus on the moon
 I'm a perfect little foil for the prognosticators of doom
 I'll bet you in a minute they'll be searching my room
 Watch out for the deluge I believe it's coming soon
 And I'll bet you five bucks we'll see the stars come out at noon
 You can bet all you got I'll get your attention soon
 Getting 'bout as much attention as a circus on the moon
 I'm a stalwart trapeze artist on my
 (circus on the moon)
 I'm a lonely tightrope walker in my
 (circus on the moon)
 An accomplished virtuoso in my (circus on the moon)
 Waving at you sweetly from my
 circus on the moon
 Three million miles away I'm staring at you, staring at you
 Waving at you sweetly from my
 (circus on the moon)
 Standing tall and lone in my circus on the moon
 Three million miles away I'm staring at you in my circus on the moon
