The Tiny Circus Of Life Lyrics - Andy Partridge

You should have been there. 

You would have laughed so hard that you'd cry I bet. 

Watching this poor sucker sweat over things that you'd all sail through. 

You should have seen me. 

You would have howled so hard that you'd piss yourself. 

See me dumped back on the shelf, all in pieces with no good glue. 

They've had all your money fool and they've even had your sweet wife. 

But you have to smile you clown. 

You're in the tiny circus, the tiny circus of life. 

Don't look so smug folks, you could be next. 

Hook you from your ringside seat, 

Make you think you'd found your feet and then pull all your world away. 

They've had all your money fool and they've even had your sweet wife. 

But you have to smile you clown. 

You're in the tiny circus, the tiny circus of life. 

All black and white, down in your contract here
