The Runaways

Roll up
Roll up
We'll leave overnight when the evening star's up
Roll up
Roll up
Here is the greatest talents rounded up
Fire eater
Fire eater
Brimstone and saltpetre
Fire eater
Fire eater
Magnificent death cheater
Trapeze
Trapeze
Acrobats fly with ease
Trapeze
Trapeze
Lovers dancing on a breeze
Where they fly through the air
And eat fire without care
The circus is where
They do what they dare
Roll up
Roll up
We'll leave overnight when the evening star's up
Human canon ball
And the man that's ten feet tall
Tightrope, high wire
And the girl that breaths fire
The redolent smell casts you under a spell
We came here in daylight
We're leaving at midnight
The ringmaster's whip crack
The howl of a wolf pack
The sky now is pitch black
The stars and the smoke stacks
Roll up
Roll up
We'll leave overnight when the evening star's up
One
Two
Three
Four
Whoa
So that's how I got here
And listen to me my dear
You need not be a seer
Or another Shakespeare
We just look for passion
To do what you dare
So sing and tell stories
With love and with care
Roll up
Roll up
We'll leave overnight when the evening star's up
