Talking Heads - The Democratic Circus Lyrics
Found out this morningTheres a circus coming to townThey drive in cadillacsUsing walkie-talkies, and the secret serviceTheir big topImitation of lifeAnd all the flags and microphonesWe have to cover our eyesWe play the sideshowsAnd we like the tunnel of loveAnd when we ride the ferris wheelWere little children againAnd when theyre asking for volunteersWell be the first ones aboardAnd when the ringmaster calls our namesWell be the first ones to go ... to sleepStealing all our dreamsDreams for saleThey sell em back to youOn with the showStart the paradeWe sand alongSweep us awayIts political party timeGoing down, going downAnd the celebrities all come outComing down, coming down, coming...The sun is going downAnd the dogs are starting to howlWe stay out after darkEating cotton candyAnd the musics playing...How we all laughed!We split our sidesThe cameras flashedWe almost died!The rains gonna pour on down, falling out of the skyComing down, coming downAnd the celebrities all run out, and the rainsComing down, coming downGonna rain,Gonna rain, gonna rainGonna rain, gonna rain,Rain, rainRain, rainAnd now I wonder whos bossAnd who hes leavin behind?
