Trade places, sow seeds
Count pieces, fell trees
Strip me of my cards, I was going to build.
Cities, towns and ports, for the both of us
Game tactics, white lies
Revealing a dark side
Walking to the port, down the longest road
Trading sheep for wood, deals are oreful
Give me some ore
Don't take all of my resources
How many cards have you got?
No wheat, means defeat
Time to pack away
I don't like this game
Are you mocking me?
Ends so bitterly
(ONE DAY THE CIRCUS CAME TO TOWN...)

Why didnt I listen all those years ago
To your advice?
You saw the end of the film before it had even begun
You said that I'd end up like my father
Staring up at the bridge where we first kissed
Blood dripping from my temple
Wondering where I messed up
Wish you weren't in my heart
Wish you weren't in my head
All the things you told me
All the things you said
Battered and bruised
Beaten to a pulp
But these wounds will hurt less than 'I told you so'
Spotted me leaving the Brass Monkey
Looking for kicks on a Friday night
Fists were flying left and right
Wish you weren't in my heart
Wish you weren't in my head
All the things you told me
All the things you said
You hurt me much more than this
Lying here with broken ribs
Why didn't I listen to your advice
Why didn't I listen
(BUT NOT EVERYONE WENT TO THE GRAND OPENING...)

Strobe lights in the night
Taken off your bite
Dimly room, it's much too soon
We're too young to go through this again
Don't drag that up it was just luck
No you didn't
And we shouldn't
Go back and forth
Like a metronome
Endless arguments
No improvement
Fix it with a kiss
Well i don't want this
Lights are on now
Truth is out loud
As the grain falls
Living through a war
No you didn't
And we shouldn't
Go in circles
Make it worth it
(THAT NIGHT THE CAMERA PEOPLE CAME AND SPOKE TO ALL THE CLOWNS...)

Where's my bowl
And where's my lead?
You left me here
On my own again
Sensitive elephant (Don't wake up the)
Something's in the water (Lion tamer)
For when you're older (The bearded lady)
Alcoholic mammal (Can't help you any more)
Race through time
It's cold on the moon
But that's fine
Its cosy inside this spaceship of mine
Sensitive elephant (Don't wake up the)
Something's in the water (Lion tamer)
For when you're older (The bearded lady)
Alcoholic mammal (Can't help you any more)

One little shot, another little shot
I can't see the end of my trunk
Walking in a straight line's proving difficult
Tomorrow's written off and it's all my fault
But I don't want to
Wake up in the morning with a trunking headache
Hair of the dog and then a skinny dip in the lake
Sobriety's not a friend of mine
Every time it happens it just passes by
Every day my friends are egging me to get my trunk out
Have another cana till I just pass out
Down and out
Bar Paris
Swinging my
Big trunk about
And when I get home
Gonna raid the fridge
My hair smells of smoke
My clothes are wet
The neighbours below me
Are gonna have a fright
(THE ELEPHANT AWOKE THE NEXT MORNING WITH A BIG HANGOVER. HE ASKED THE BEARDED LADY FOR SOME LIFE ADVICE...)

You've got conflicts
Just like the rest of us do
I'm not saying I've got all the answers
But it's such a shame when you've got so much to give
So let live
You could die tomorrow
So break your lead and fly
They say you got alot to learn
But i say its just not true
I still think theres room for self improvement
Dont just take my word
So just give
One more try to follow
Break your lead and fly
Couldn't read couldn't write
tight-rope walking through the night
couldn't read couldn't write
one day a clown saved my life
(LATER THAT DAY, ALL THE CIRCUS PEOPLE GAVE AN INTERACTIVE HISTORY LESSON...)

Windswept on a shoreline
Regrets but I'm fine
You still think that you've won
Your friends think that I'm done
This is where it's Phoenician
Think you're such a big Ottoman
It's really taking it's Ptolemy
Well Soviet
Frog march to the front line
Reclaim what's mine
Trebuchet the walls cave
Your people my new slaves.
This is where it's Phoenician
Think you're such a big Ottoman
It's really taking it's Ptolemy
Well Soviet

Little horse running free
Tell me what you want to be
Shunned away by some
I bet you're not the only way
To moderate your state
Hurry now or you'll be late
Dapple grey you will find a spirit of a like mind
On the path less trodden
Curious things are found
Live a life nomadic
Horseshoes on the ground
Powerful stallion
Off to make a transition
If you dare be a mare even if the people stare
No remorse little horse
You will never be alone
Take the plunge, get it done
Join the circus and have fun
On the path less trodden
Curious things are found
Live a life nomadic
Horseshoes on the ground
(STARING UP AT THE BIG TOP, THE LITTLE HORSE FINALLY MADE ITS DECISION AND TOOK ONE STEP TOWARDS THE INVITING LIGHTS...)

Your charm your charm your charm
Works on everyone
doesn't it get you down sometimes?
When they fall so easily
Into your web of lies
So effortlessly
Dodged a bullet
And I'm still here
Saw right through it
Made you disappear
Thank god I didn't fall
I almost lost it all
You're a bellend
And a lesson learnt
You say you're honest
I say selective with the truth
Saying no is not that hard to do
Biting off more than you can chew
Dodged a bullet
And I'm still here
Saw right through it
Made you disappear
Thank god I didn't fall
I almost lost it all
You're a bellend
Just a lesson learnt

What will we talk about today?
You always talk while I listen
Safe in your cosy den
We're both safe in the fortress of your pages
He's in the bar downstairs again
While you escape to distant places
Without leaving the room
Poles apart, just strangers
Confide in me, I won't tell anyone...
