Take me to the big show

Take me anywhere but here

Put me in the front row

Make my problems disappear

Trapeze high wires

Without a safety net

For the present admission

I wanna witness life or death

All the pretty girls get cut in half while the sad clowns make us laugh

I wanna make friends with the friends with the freaks

I wanna throw it down with the clowns that I meet

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

Invite all the carnies

And the crazy acrobats

And bearded ladies

And the fire breathers

All the people

Just like me

Are you ready to risk it all

And be a human cannon ball?

Sharpen up those knives and throw em'

At the fool against the wall

We're all against that wall

I wanna make friends with the friends with the freaks

I wanna throw it down with the clowns that I meet

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

Invite all the carnies

And the crazy acrobats

And bearded ladies

And the fire breathers

All the people

Just like me

Ladies and Gentlemen

Boys and girls

Come one come all

To the Cirque dans la rue!

Check your troubles at the door

You don't need em anymore!

Leave reality outside

And come along for the ride

But just remember

While you're watching us

Do the things that we do!

We're watching you

All the pretty girls get cut in half while the sad clowns make us laugh

All the pretty girls get cut in half while the sad clowns make us laugh

I wanna make friends with the friends with the freaks

I wanna throw it down with the clowns that I meet

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

Invite all the carnies

And the crazy acrobats

And bearded ladies

And the fire breathers

All the people

Just like me

Just like me

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street

Invite all the carnies

And the crazy acrobats

And bearded ladies

And the fire breathers

All the people

Just like me

All the pretty girls get cut in half while the sad clowns make us laugh
