Smell the mighty monkey
Trainer is a junky
And the tightrope walker
Has one foot in the grave

Invited to inspect
What is a train wreck?
You don't even have to check
It's evident
So evident

Dancing bear is full of worms
See the puny pachyderms
Lion tamer wrestles with
Ghosts from his past

Clowns have herpes
And hepatitis C
The chick who runs the pony ride
We call her "Catherine the Gross"

Alcoholic acrobats
Emcee smokes crack
Last week the human cannonball
Blew his brains out
