Come on down my friends, let the show begin
I got a wondrous tale written on your skin
It's full of fantasies of lust and shame
Get all the good stuff but accept no blame
Find it playing there when your eyelids close
Turn up your collar, babe, and it's in your clothes
In every word you speak and your private thoughts
Don't hit the stage too long or you might get caught
Maybe up there you will live forever
Maybe up there you'll have romance
We'll be finding our sweet pace together
When you get your big chance on the tinsel show tonight
It's your big chance on the tinsel show tonight, yes, my baby
It's a Barnum and Bailey world from the top right down
The citizen, he smiles like a circus clown
You better polish up your act or you won't get paid
Don't say what you do, girl, just do what they say
Maybe up there you will live forever
Maybe up there you'll have romance
We'll be finding our sweet pace together
When you get your big chance on the tinsel show tonight
Roll up, roll up to the tinsel show
Where the high and mighty become brought down low
You've got fifteen minutes and the clock is slow
Roll up, roll up, roll up to the tinsel show
Show time
Maybe up there you will live forever
Maybe up there you'll have romance
We'll be finding our sweet pace together
Ah-huh when you get your big chance on the tinsel show tonight
Roll up, roll up to the tinsel show
Where the high and mighty become brought down low
You've got fifteen minutes and the clock is slow
Roll 'em up, roll 'em up, roll 'em up now to the tinsel show
Show time
Come on down, my friend, let the show begin
Said, I got a wondrous tale written on your skin
Said, it's full of fantasies of lust and shame
Oh, oh, my, my, my
Barnum and Bailey world from the top right down
The citizen, he smiles like a circus clown
Better polish up your act or you won't get paid
Come on down my friend
Let's go to the tinsel show
