Falling off the roller coaster
Get along
Out on somewhere along the way
You’ll fall in love
Like you’re supposed to
Speaking softly to my sweetheart
I’ll be here all day
So I paint my smile, cover my dignity
It’s time to build what the people came to see
Let them laugh and cheer in my painted tears
I’m a circus freak in Joyland, come down to Joyland
Round and round for the big, tough crowd
I’m a circus freak in Joyland, come down to Joyland soon
Heaven knows
I’ve been trying
Moving slow
Under the weight of passing time
This new world
It doesn’t need me
'Cause I won’t keep
What I know was never mine
I pray you will come and teach me to forget
I’m dying, I’ve ruined my regret
Let them laugh and cheer in my painted tears
I’m a circus freak in Joyland, come down to Joyland
Round and round for the big, tough crowd
I’m a circus freak in Joyland, come down to Joyland soon
Don’t you wanna live without no worry
Don’t you wanna walk in Babylon
Don’t you wanna burn up all your money
Don’t you wanna walk in Babylon
Don’t you wanna live without no worry
Don’t you wanna walk in Babylon
Don’t you wanna burn up all your money
Don’t you wanna walk in Babylon
Don’t you wanna live without no worry
Don’t you wanna walk in Babylon
Don’t you wanna burn up all your money
Don’t you wanna walk in Babylon
I’m a circus freak in Joyland
I’m a circus freak in Joyland
I’m a circus freak in Joyland
I’m a circus freak in Joyland
