| 'DRUMS' (Goodbye cruel world) |
| 'CALLIOPE' (Goodbye cruel world) |
| Oh, goodbye cruel world, I’m off to join the circus |
| Gonna be a broken-hearted clown |
| Paint my face with a good-for-nothin' smile |
| 'cause a mean, fickle woman turned my whole world upside down |
| 'CALLIOPE' (Goodbye cruel world) |
| Farewell to love, I’m off to join the circus |
| Gotta find a way to hide my tears |
| Bet I’ll have them rolling in the aisle |
| And I’ll forget that woman if it takes a hundred years |
| Oh oh oh, step right up and take a look at a fool |
| He’s got a heart as stubborn as a mule |
| C’mon everybody, he’s good for a laugh |
| And no one could tell his heart is broken in half |
| Well, the joke’s on me, I’m off to join the circus |
| Oh, Mr. Barnum, save a place for me Shoot me out of a cannon, I don’t care |
| Let the people point at me and stare |
| I’ll tell the world that woman, wherever she may be That mean, fickle woman made a cryin' clown outta me |
| 'CALLIOPE' (Goodbye cruel world) |
| 'BRIEF'Shoot me out of a cannon, I don’t care |
| Let the people point at me and stare |
| I’ll tell the world that woman, wherever she may be That mean, fickle woman made a cryin' clown outta me |
| 'CALLIOPE'Goodbye cruel world |
| 'CALLIOPE'Goodbye cruel world |
| FADE |
