A tryst between the ring master's daughter and his young apprentice Goes unfulfilled by the reluctancy of the young man And his unspoken, half assumed desire for the girl behind the cotton candy booth But the ring master's daughter, with her quivering curls Waits by the zoo tent all night For a wisp of woebegone love With a poor, handsome Circus Freak

Circus Freak
A tryst between the ring master's daughter and his young apprentice Goes unfulfilled by the reluctancy of the young man And his unspoken, half assumed desire for the girl behind the cotton candy booth But the ring master's daughter, with her quivering curls Waits by the zoo tent all night For a wisp of woebegone love With a poor, handsome Circus Freak
