I'm a circus on a sinking ship I asked the clowns to walk to plank But the jokes won't quit Yellow balloons Big noses Red shoes And squirting roses The laughs from ashore Rival the tides Coming in waves Left by my own side The bow is starting to crack Under the pressure of the lion Jumping through its fiery hoop The shrouds once held tight Now they are fraying And starting to droop An iceberg would be welcomed but we are in hot water Not even a shark insight I've been leaking blood But still not a one to bite

Sinking Circus Ship
I'm a circus on a sinking ship I asked the clowns to walk to plank But the jokes won't quit Yellow balloons Big noses Red shoes And squirting roses The laughs from ashore Rival the tides Coming in waves Left by my own side The bow is starting to crack Under the pressure of the lion Jumping through its fiery hoop The shrouds once held tight Now they are fraying And starting to droop An iceberg would be welcomed but we are in hot water Not even a shark insight I've been leaking blood But still not a one to bite
