The Performers Tent (Mortus The Bum) |
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… |
Hey ! |
Mr.-Show-Me-Something-Splendid — Jocastan Acrobats are ready to perform |
Did you ever think I would think you were the only one to want to see them fail |
Swing swing, one mistake and you die a murderer |
The best you can do is pray and to pass them on |
Just wait for the human cannonball |
He can’t enjoy this place when he’s flying straight over our heads but… |
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… |
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 |
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… |
(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 |
