Trapeze |
| Little pink dress, hanging by her knees |
| Just overhead on the old trapeze |
| In the old tent tonight, spotlight going round |
| One of these nights the old girl’s going down |
| Hallelujah, the old girl’s going down |
| She started with us on the back of a horse |
| Just seventeen and already divorced |
| She took to the air with the greatest of ease |
| Like she was born to be gliding on the old trapeze |
| Some people don’t care if they live or they die |
| Some people want to know what it feels like to fly |
| They gather their courage and they give it a try |
| And some guy broke her heart and how her heart it did ache |
| So she went to the tent of the lady of the snakes |
| Who gave her a potion and she drank it in |
| After that her heart never ached again |
| After that her heart never ached again |
| Some people don’t care if they live or they die |
| Some people want to know what it feels like to fly |
| They gather their courage and they give it a try |
| Fall under the wheels of a time going by |
| Little pink dress, hanging by her knees |
| Just overhead on the old trapeze |
| In the old tent tonight, spotlight going round |
| One of these nights the old girl’s going down |
| One of these nights the old girl’s going down |
| One of these nights the old girl’s going down |
| One of these nights the old girl’s going down |
| Halle-, halle-, halle- |
| Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah |
| Hallelujah |
