| It’s getting harder and harder to bear
|
| You’ve got me acting like a clown in a collar
|
| You got me spending all the time I can spare
|
| You got me wasting every dime, every dollar
|
| When I stumble and fall
|
| Does it hurt you at all?
|
| Will it twist like a knife
|
| For the rest of your life?
|
| You think that love’s a joke
|
| But there ain’t too much to laugh at
|
| And it’s all for show
|
| Should I keep my ticket after
|
| Or should I just go?
|
| When you’re begging for attention
|
| Once the crowd goes home
|
| And there’s no one left to listen
|
| Tah Dah!
|
| You’ve got me jumping through a circle of fire
|
| You’ve got me juggling everything that I care for
|
| In your world is like a cage with a tiger
|
| It’s what all the cuts and the bruises are there for
|
| When I stumble and fall
|
| Does it hurt you at all?
|
| Will it twist like a knife
|
| For the rest of your life?
|
| You think that love’s a joke
|
| But there ain’t too much to laugh at
|
| And it’s all for show
|
| Should I keep my ticket after
|
| Or should I just go?
|
| When you’re begging for attention
|
| Once the crowd goes home
|
| And there’s no one left to listen
|
| I’ve got the freedom to love
|
| I’ve got the freedom to live
|
| Well now enough is enough
|
| I’m not a trick up your sleeve
|
| I’m not a part of your show
|
| Can’t make me pop up and go
|
| One day your curtain will close
|
| I’ve got to let you know
|
| You think that love’s a joke
|
| But there ain’t too much to laugh at
|
| And it’s all for show
|
| Should I keep my ticket after
|
| Or should I just go?
|
| When you’re begging for attention
|
| Once the crowd goes home
|
| And there’s no one left to listen
|
| Tah Dah! |
