Album: N/A


INTRO: A Em A Em Gm
A Em G D
The ringmaster looked a bit pasty and down Dying as he was to get out of town
A Em
The lions and the tigers had gnawed at his feet
G D
But the lion tamer's whip hurt much more than their teeth
A Em G D
The Giovanni Sisters performed in a sweat Someone cut holes in the safety net
A Em
The Ritzo Brothers cancelled at the last minute
G D
But no one missed their act there wasn't much in it

CHORUS
A Em D A
And after the show that night The clowns had the makeup wiped from their faces
A Em D A
When somebody pulled a knife and cut off Coco's bright red braces
A D A E A D A E
They murdered the clown They wiped that grin right off his face
A D A E A D A E
They murdered the clown Still the world's not a funnier place
Em Gm
funnier place (first and last time only)

The kids rode the elephant heavy as lead
I think he'd much rather have sat on their heads
They're ripping the horn from the Rhino tonight
So some fat Sheik can fuck all night
And watch out for Coco when he's had a drink
He'll tickle the children right where they're pink
You might run away with the circus for fun
But it
