| What was that? |
| Just take a look
|
| It seems we’ve got ourselves a congregation…
|
| Stop that knocking ! |
| All this work and yet they keep from flocking
|
| Every single day in here is all the same to me
|
| But things are looking up… since you’ve arrived…
|
| Places ! |
| Places ! |
| Performers just try and keep these people in their seats !
|
| Up here onlookers — the tight rope rigid, fixed as perfect annulus…
|
| I’ll find the time to breathe when I fall
|
| We’ll get that cleaned up shortly, we’ve got our cemetery in the back
|
| I’ll admit to a rocky start but it must go on !
|
| We’re bound to impress you yet
|
| We’re bound to the acts we’ve always known without the time
|
| Or the drive to leave it behind
|
| So sit down in your seats and watch us work until we can’t stand
|
| We could’ve stood for more than this…

|
| We’re bound to the acts we’ve always known without the time
|
| Or the drive to leave it behind
|
| So sit down in your seats and watch us work until we can’t stand
|
| We could’ve stood for more than this…
|
| If all the jugglers could juggle the jugglers do you think they’d ever hit the
|
| ground?
|
| If one of the jugglers lost faith in the others do you think we’d even hear the
|
| sound?
|
| If all the jugglers could juggle the jugglers do you think they’d ever hit the
|
| ground?
|
| If one of the jugglers lost faith in the others do you think they’d even
|
| recognize that…
|
| We’re bound to impress you yet
|
| We’re bound to the acts we’ve always known without the time
|

|
| So sit down in your seats and watch us work until we can’t stand

|
| (introducing the human cannonball)
|
| Leave the flying to the seeds; |
| we all give up our time eventually
|
| Breathe in each and every word from painted lips
|
| We know you’ll keep these exaggerated features in your head
|
| We know you’ll |
